Here are my reflections and comments from today’s scripture from Our Daily Inspirations App
The scripture is from Exodus20:7, “You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who misuses his name.”
The devotion is titled “Use God’s Name with Reverence” by Pastor Ken and Joyverse. This devotion is summarized that God is holy therefore His name is holy. God’s name is not to be used for false oaths, casual jokes, or profane coursing. Why? God controls the universe. With a single word He creates worlds, puts planets in place, and sets galaxies in motion. He knows every hair on our head. The tiniest bird that falls, He knows. This is the God whom angels revere and demons fear. God in human form experience unspeakable torture and horrors to redeem our lives from eternal death. Use His name when giving thanks, offering praise, in prayer, and reflecting His love for others.
Reflection: How can we use God’s name for praising and giving thanks? What is one way we can use God’s name properly today?
Here was my response: I can use God’s name to further glorify Him in Heaven. Today I can use God’s name to pray for others who are still spiritually lost.
My Prayer for us: Dear God, help us to use Your name with reverence. Also, help us shine before others to lift You high. In Jesus’ name I pray Amen.
