His Name Is Wonderful

His name is Wonderful, His name is Wonderful,
His name is Wonderful, Jesus, my Lord.
He is the mighty King, Master of everything,
His name is Wonderful, Jesus, my Lord.
He's the great Shepherd, the Rock of all ages,
Almighty God is He; Bow down before Him,
Love and adore Him, His name is Wonderful,
Jesus, my Lord.

Deuteronomy 28:58 New Century Version
Be careful to obey everything these teachings that are written in this book. You must respect the glorious and WONDERFUL NAME of the LORD your God.

Isaiah 9:6-7 New Century Version
A child has been born to us; God has given a son to us. He will be responsible for leading the people. His name will be Wonderful Counselor, Powerful God, Father Who Lives Forever, Prince of Peace. Power and peace will be in his kingdom and will continue to grow forever. He will rule as king on David's throne and over David's kingdom. He will make it strong by ruling with justice and goodness from now on and forever. The LORD All-Powerful will do this because of his strong love for his people.

"The Name of Jesus" by Kenneth E. Hagin notes:
The Name of Jesus touched every part of the early believers' lives. The Name of Jesus filled a place in their thoughts, in their prayers, in their preaching that we are almost ignorant of today. Yet in our Christian walk, in our Christian life, in prayer, we have the same right to use of the Name of Jesus.

Prayer of Kenneth Hagin:
"May the Lord open our eyes and our hearts that we may know the riches of the glory of God which is hidden in that Name as we take special notice of its place in the believer's daily walk."
