A sermon excerpt by Justin R. Lester urging listeners to invoke the name of Jesus to overturn personal and familial brokenness. Major claims: God uses people from humble backgrounds, and shouting Jesus will make past trauma, generational curses, financial problems, fears, and authorities ‘bow.’ The passage is highly exhortatory and call-and-response in style.
