Introduction
- Every Child Is A Gift From God
Psalms 127:3 - Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.

- Every Gift From Above Is A Good And Perfect Gift
James 1:17 - Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.


Why We Conduct Covenant Naming Ceremony

1.      Jesus was Name on the Eighth Day.

Luke 2:21 KJV

And when eight days were accomplished for the circumcising of the child, his name was called JESUS, which was so named of the angel before he was conceived in the womb.

 

2.      John The Baptist was Named The Eighth Day.

Luke 1:59-64 KJV

59. And it came to pass, that on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child; and they called him Zacharias, after the name of his father.

[60] And his mother answered and said, Not so ; but he shall be called John.

[61] And they said unto her, There is none of thy kindred that is called by this name. [62] And they made signs to his father, how he would have him called.

[63] And he asked for a writing table, and wrote, saying, His name is John. And they marvelled all.

[64] And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue loosed, and he spake, and praised God.

 

3.      A Good Name Is Important
Proverbs 22:1 - A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favour rather than silver and gold.
Ecclesiastes 7 :1 - A good name is better than precious ointment;

 

4.      You Name Defines Your Mission
Every Child Comes For A Mission
Jeremiah 1:5
- Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.

Jesus example
- Matthew 1:21 - And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.

5.      Covenant Naming Initiate The Child Into A Covenant Of Blessings
Example of Abraham - Genesis 17:5 – 6
5 Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made thee.
6 And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.


Example of Jacob – Genesis 32:26 – 28
26 And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee go, except thou bless me.
27 And he said unto him, What is thy name? And he said, Jacob.
28 And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed.

Prophetic Blessings

1.     Grow and Wax Strong in the Spirit
Luke 2:40 - And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him.

2.     Increase In Wisdom And Favour
Luke 2:52 - And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man.

3.     Be Preferred
Daniel 6:3 - Then this Daniel was preferred above the presidents and princes, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm.

4.     Be TEN Times Better
Daniel 1:20
- And in all matters of wisdom and understanding, that the king enquired of them, he found them ten times better than all the magicians and astrologers that were in all his realm.

5.     Nothing Shall Fail In His Hand
I Samuel 3:19 - And Samuel grew, and the LORD was with him, and did let none of his words fall to the ground.

6.     Blessed Round About – In The City And In The Field
Deuteronomy 28:3 - Blessed shalt thou be in the city, and blessed shalt thou be in the field.

7.     Be The Head
Deuteronomy 28:13 - And the LORD shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath;
