To Hallow God's Name -Luke 11: 2b
God calls every believer to obedience
part of that is to hallow his great name
but what does that mean in living reality?
this is so important so we can escape blame
Thinking that just to not swear or curse
is insufficient for that's just not enough
when one disbelieves, doubts and questions him
this is just as bad equally rotten stuff
Believing in God won't necessary hallow him
if one doesn't have knowledge that is true
especially when not recognising his character
or even don't know what one needs to do
Thinking good thoughts of God on a Sunday
that's not enough for what about rest of day?
even during the rest of the week too
must bring one's thoughts of God forever to stay
The psalmist says let's exalt his name together
in 34th Psalm to magnify the Lord with me
be sure to approach God's holy place
honour him there so forever to be
(And he said to them, “When you pray, say:
“Father, hallowed be your name.)
Luke 11: 2b (ESV)
