Dag Heward-Mills and the Power in the Name of Jesus

There is a name that carries more weight than any other. A name that breaks chains, silences demons, opens blind eyes, and sets captives free. That name is Jesus. And in the ministry of Bishop Dag Heward-Mills, the power in that name is not just preached—it is demonstrated.

The foundation of every Healing Jesus Crusade, every church service, every camp meeting, and every book written by Bishop Dag is centered on one person: Jesus Christ. Not as a historical figure, not as a religious idea, but as the risen Lord, the Son of God, and the Healer of all who call on His name.

When Bishop Dag preaches, he does not present a powerless Gospel. He lifts up the name of Jesus with faith and conviction, fully expecting that power will be released. And time and time again, it is.

There are moments when he simply begins to pray, and you can feel a shift in the atmosphere. It’s not hype—it’s the weight of glory that comes when Jesus is truly exalted. The sick begin to sense healing. Those bound by demons begin to cry out. People who came as spectators suddenly become worshippers. That’s the power in His name.

In every crusade, you’ll hear Bishop Dag say, “In the name of Jesus, be healed.” And people are. You’ll hear him command unclean spirits to leave—and they obey. You’ll watch as tumors shrink, pain disappears, and lives are touched—not by human power, but by divine authority.

This isn’t new. It’s biblical. All through the book of Acts, the apostles ministered in the name of Jesus. Peter said to the lame man, “In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk.” And he did. That same authority is still available to believers today. Bishop Dag walks in it—not as a special class of Christian, but as one who believes the Word and acts on it.

What makes his ministry so impactful is that he never shifts the attention to himself. He always points to Jesus. In every healing, in every breakthrough, the glory goes back to the One who deserves it. There is no manipulation, no performance—just simple, bold faith in the name that is above every name.

But this power isn’t limited to crusades. It shows up in counseling rooms, in church meetings, in quiet prayers offered by trained pastors and lay leaders who have caught the spirit of the ministry. Because Bishop Dag doesn’t just use the name of Jesus—he teaches others to do the same.

His books are filled with examples, scriptures, and teachings that remind believers that we have authority through Christ. That we can speak to sickness. That we can command oppression to lift. That we can expect miracles—not in our name, but in His.

There is a reverence in the way Bishop Dag handles the name of Jesus. He doesn’t use it lightly. He honors it. And because of that, the power flows. There is something about a man who has truly seen the power of that name and chooses to live under its covering.

The miracles, the testimonies, the transformed lives—they all trace back to one truth: the name of Jesus still carries power. And in this ministry, that name is lifted high.

Whether in front of thousands or in a quiet prayer meeting, Bishop Dag Heward-Mills continues to declare the name of Jesus with boldness, with love, and with full expectation that something will happen. Because it always does.
