“Great Jehovah God, have mercy. I pray that You will heal this woman and heal the doctor. He didn't aim to do it, Lord. I pray for them both, that through one trying to help the other, now Lord, help them both. And, Satan, you hid from the doctor but you can't hide from God. Come out of her. In the NAME of Jesus Christ, may she go and be made well. God bless you, sister.” [The Resurrection Of Jairus’ Daughter, Phoenix, AZ 54-0302]
“He was called the I AM. He's called Jehovah, and He's changed many times. The last time it was changed was when God became flesh and took a human name. Jehovah, I AM, and all of those, are titles to a NAME. See? If you was baptized in the NAME of Jehovah, it'd have to be the NAME of Jesus Christ. If you was baptized in the NAME of Jehovah-rapha, Jehovah Manasses, and Jehovah-jireh, all of those, it'd have to be Jesus Christ. The I AM is Jesus Christ.” [Questions And Answers, Jeffersonville, IN 64-0830M]
“O Almighty God, Author of Life, Giver of every good gift, send Thy blessings upon the man. And may his nerves quieten now. May he go off the platform here, Father, and be well. May he just take Jesus just now, and know that Jesus Christ is the all-sufficient Sacrifice. God is Jehovah-jireh, "the Lord will provide a sacrifice for Himself." And now the sacrifice has been provided. May our brother accept it by faith and act it by works, in Jesus Christ's Name. Amen.” [Lord, I Believe, Chicago, IL 53-0901]
“O Jehovah, in the Name of Jesus, the Son of God, Your beloved doctors has tried to find him, but he's hid. But he can't hide from You. Come out of the woman, thou evil spirit, that's doing this thing. And Jesus Christ rebuke thee. And may she go in peace, in the NAME of the Lord Jesus Christ.” [The Resurrection Of Jesus, Chicago, IL 56-0405]
“O Lord God, Elohim, the great Jehovah God, heal this child. Heal the parents; forgive their sins. May this baby live to the honor and glory of God. Perhaps this was done to bring this family to You, Lord. Now that they've come, I pray for mercy for the baby in the NAME of Jesus Christ. Amen. God bless you, sister. Take up your place. You are... Did you see I regarded you "sister," the Holy Spirit did? See, you're a sister now. Go on your road, and God be with you.” [It Is I, Be Not Afraid, Chautauqua, OH 59-0811]
“O Lord, Created heavens and earth, Author of Everlasting Life, Giver of every good gift, send Thy blessings upon this man. And make this evil to leave him. O Thou eternal God, Who was before the day spring from on high, You was God then, You'll be God when the seas is wept theirself into deserts. You'll still be God. Now, I now ask that this great Jehovah, coming in His power, through the NAME of Jesus Christ, and loose this man from his affliction. Go, in the Name of Jesus Christ, I ask the evil to leave.” [Looking For Jesus, Phoenix, AZ 54-0228E]
“This is, of course, where we call this God has the seven compound redemptive Names: Jehovah-jireh, the Lord will provide a sacrifice; Jehovah-rapha, the Lord that healeth; and the Lord our banner; the Lord our buckler, and so forth. He appears in His compound redemptive Names. And that's... When the Angel of the Lord appeared there in Houston that time, when the Baptist minister was debating with Brother Bosworth, he just asked him that one question. He said, "Doctor Best, I will ask you: Was the compound Names of Jehovah applied to Jesus, yes or no? Just answer me, yes or no." And he wouldn't do it. Because see, if he said, "Yes," then... You can't separate His compound Names. So if He's Jehovah-jireh, the Lord's provided Sacrifice, He's also Jehovah-rapha that heals all of our diseases. So... And if He's not Jehovah-rapha, neither is He Jehovah-jireh, our Saviour. So if He isn't God's provided Sacrifice... So you can't separate them. That settled it. That was just--just one Scripture it taken to settle.” [Jehovah-Jireh, Long Beach, CA 61-0209]
“Those people out there, Lord, You see their hands laid on one another. You know all about them. And Father, I pray in Jesus' NAME that You will heal every one of them. May the power of Satan turn them loose right now. In the NAME of Jesus Christ, may that sullen, ungodly demon spirit leave. Come out of the people in the NAME of Jesus Christ.” [Believe Ye That I Am Able To Do This? Cleveland, OH 50-0820E]
“We're have the last sign with us now: that's You, God, is manifested in human flesh. They raised their hands, Lord. They…The Bible says Your own Son, Jesus Christ said, "He that heareth My words (and God I brought it to them), and will believe on Him that sent Me, has everlasting life, and shall not come to judgment, but's passed from death to life." Great Jehovah, Elohim, through the Name of Jesus Christ, I give them to You, as tokens of Your Word and the Sacrifice of Your loving Son, and by the presence of the Holy Ghost, Who brings the Word and manifests It through human flesh to the people, they are Yours. Do with them as You see fit, Lord, for they are in Your hands. Your ministers here will lead them on. May they go straight to some good church and have Christian baptism performed. Then may they receive the baptism of the Holy Ghost and be placed in the Body of Christ. Grant it, Lord. In the Name of Jesus Christ, I ask it. Amen.” [Abraham's Grace Covenant, Middletown, OH 61-0317]
“What's every name, every name of, every person will bear the NAME of what? [Congregation says "Jesus."--Ed.] The whole heaven's named Jesus. The whole church is named Jesus. Everything is named Jesus, for it's the only NAME that God ever had. He's called Jehovah, Jehovah-jireh, the Lord's provided Sacrifice; Jehovah-rapha, the Lord that healeth thee; Jehovah, the Lord's banner, Manasses; and Jehovah, different Jehovahs. He's called the Morning Star. He's called Father: He's called Son; He's called Holy Ghost. He's called Alpha; He's called Omega. He's called Beginning; He's called the Ending. He's called the Branch. Oh, He's called--He's just called all kinds of titles, but He had one NAME.” [Adoption, Jeffersonville, IN 60-0522E]
“Yes, that is true, but the real translation is not "God of truth". It is "God of the AMEN". So we read it, "shall bless himself in the God of the AMEN, and he that sweareth in the earth shall swear by the God of the AMEN; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hid from My eyes. For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind. But be ye glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create, for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy. And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in My people: and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her; nor the voice of crying," Hallelujah. Here is Jehovah of the Old Testament, "the God of the Amen". Here is Jesus of the New Testament, "the God of the Amen". Hear, Oh Israel, the Lord thy God is ONE God. There it is again, the Jehovah of the Old Testament is the Jesus of the New. "Hear, Oh, Israel the Lord thy God is ONE God." The New Testament does not reveal ANOTHER God, it is a further revelation of the ONE AND SAME GOD. Christ did not come down to make Himself known. He did not come to reveal the Son. He came to reveal and make known the Father. He never talked about two Gods; He talked about ONE God. And now in this last age, we have come back to the capstone revelation, the most important revelation of Godhead in the whole Bible, that is, JESUS IS GOD, HE AND THE FATHER ARE ONE: THERE IS ONE GOD, AND HIS NAME IS THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.” [An Exposition Of The Seven Church Ages]
"There is no another name under Heaven given among man, whereby they must be saved." His is GOD'S NAME of redemption. God has a name called Jehovah-jireh, Jehovah-rapha, Jehovah-jireh. "The Lord forgives all thy sins." Jehovah-rapha, "the Lord heals all thy diseases." He had many titles. But He's got one Name of Redemption, that belongs to the human race, and that is the NAME of "Jesus." That's His NAME, He chose to put. Where did He put It? He put It in Christ.” [God's Chosen Place Of Worship, Jeffersonville, IN 65-0220]
“Almighty God, great Jehovah Who went down into the fiery furnace... The children of Israel down there in that hot place and moved in and talked to the people. I pray Thee, in Jesus Christ's NAME, that You help this poor woman who's standing here. Give mercy unto her, O God, by opening her ears, and giving her hearing tonight. And as it is written in the Bible, that when the deaf spirit went out of a man he could hear. And God, I pray that You'll give faith that this poor woman might be healed tonight. And now, as Your servant, help me, God, to have faith that this woman's ears will be open so I can talk to her.” [Make The Valley Full Of Ditches, Hammond, IN 52-0719]
“God appears in seven compound redemptive Names. Ministers know that. His first redemptive Name is Jehovah-jireh, "the Lord will provide a sacrifice." His second redemptive Name is Jehovah-rapha, "the Lord that healeth thee." And He has, Lord, the shield, the buckler, Lord... In seven different compound redemptive Names God appeared to the human race. And all of those redemptive Names was brought into Christ Jesus through that one Eternal NAME that all the heavens and earth is named after that one NAME.” [Jehovah-Jireh, Cleveland, TN 57-0106]
