Jesus, Name Above All Names

DAY 1 OF 7

Jesus

“And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall call His name Jesus.” (Luke 1:31)

In the Bible, the name parents gave their child could point to the circumstances of a birth or the parents' desire for their child. A name could also reflect their connection to God.

The son born of Mary was given names that carried the purpose of His life. In Jesus' names we can discover God's desire for us and get to know Him more deeply. When Jesus' birth was announced, both Mary and Joseph were instructed to name the child Jesus. Since then, this Name has crossed the world. And through faith in Jesus, millions of lives have been changed.

Jesus was a common boy's name in the time of Mary and Joseph. It is derived from the Hebrew word Yeshua. That means “the Lord is salvation”, also translated as “Savior”. In this Name lies the task Jesus was given by His Heavenly Father.
