Greetings family 😃
This is the day the Lord has made and we are glad and rejoice in it!!
This day God is drawing our attention to an ancient Counsel He has given for our welfare in this world and the world to come and it is simply this;
“HALLOW GOD’S EPITHET WITHOUT RESERVATIONS, FOR THE EXPRESSION OF HIS WILL DEPENDS ON IT FOR ALL ETERNITY”
👁️_
(Matthew 6 : 9 – 10)
9After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
10Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.

HALLOW BE THE …..NAME OF GOD!!!!
To Hallow means to consecrate, to regard as Holy, to set apart as sacred, to separate through sanctification, to respect, to honour, to keep pure.
An Epithet speaks about a title or name in the sense of word.
God’s Epithets are simply God’s names, titles or phrases and descriptions that express His Authority, His Will, His Sovereignty, His Character and His Lordship🙌🏿
What does it mean to HALLOW GOD’S EPITHETS?🤔
It simply means that; WE SHOULD NEVER IN ANY CIRCUMSTANCE TAKE THE NAME OF THE LORD OUR GOD IN VAIN🙌🏿👁️
So much is dependent upon this🤔☝🏿
It is so important that God in His 10 Counsel( 10 Commandments) inscribed it as second in Exodus 20 : 7
7 “Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain” 🙌🏿

Yeshua when showing the map of effective prayer in Matthew 6:9 also emphasized on it;
9 “After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name”
Every thinking man and woman, young and old should not pass by this carelessly, if God Wills it so then it is for our own good because so much depends on it.
Why is it so crucial?
It is crucial because the expression and manifestation of God’s Kingdom and God’s Will on earth is dependent upon the sanctity of HIS NAME🔥👁️
The scripture we read in Exodus 20:7 expressly says;
“……THE LORD WILL NOT HOLD HIM GUILTLESS WHO TAKES HIS NAME IN VAIN”
Why won’t GOD hold those who drag His name through the mud guiltless?
He won’t because they become obstacles to the expression of HIS KINGDOM ON EARTH, IN FAMILIES, IN NATIONS AND ALL SPHERES OF HUMAN ENDEAVORS.
God’s Mandate is that the Kingdom is Promoted not demoted.

HAVE MERCY ON ME, ON US O LORD IN PLACES WE HAVE UNCONSCIOUSLY OR INTENTIONALLY TAKEN YOU NAME IN VAIN!¡!🙌🏿🙌🏿
AMENNNNNNNNNNN!!!
Name speaks about authority, reputation, character, office, identity, attribute, conception.
Every name communicates a conception, idea, meaning and mission. To debase a name is to debase the very idea, concept and meaning it represents or communicates. To Hallow or exalt a name is to do the same.
It is not news that the NAME(AUTHORITY) OF GOD is without argument the highest of all names(authorities) and it is not to be treated with non- chalance.
All through scriptures we read of His deeds and His exploits, all to the Glory of His Name.
The Kingdom depends on His Name. When we pray, we do in His Name. When we Praise and Worship, we do so in His Name. Colossians 3:17 pins it by saying;
17 “And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him”
The attack of the enemy has always been against the NAME OF GOD to BLASPHEME IT.
_👁️__
We have the same name with Christ, He is called the Christ the Man, we are called Christ the Church
___D M G____
The enemy knows that one way to sabotage the work of the Kingdom is to sabotage the credibility and sanctity of God’s Name in the minds of men. The enemy does this through various means that seems acceptable to us.
We watch a movie and the Name of Jesus is mentioned mindlessly in the most casual manner, we hear people talk in everyday conversations and use the Name of God thoughtlessly, even swearing. This is all part of the conditioning to make casual that which is HOLY!!!!!!!!!!
👁️WHATEVER ATTACKS YOUR NAME ATTACKS THE VERY MEANING OF ALL YOU REPRESENT
HOW DO PEOPLE TAKE HIS NAME IN VAIN WITHOUT KNOWING IT?🤔
We might think we are innocent in this but I tell you the truth if we begin to pay attention, we will realize how guilty we all are of this.
“HALLOW BE GOD’S NAME”
Hear this;
📌When we appear before God to pray thoughtlessly without regard or as a purely religious exercise🤔 we are taking HIS NAME IN VAIN!!
📌We are bear the name Christian without bearing the fruits of the Holy spirit, WE ARE TAKING HIS NAME IN VAIN.
📌When we swear by His name to defend our own egos, we are taking HIS NAME IN VAIN!!!
📌When we say “GOD SAID” when HE has not spoken (in scripture or in the moment), we are taking HIS NAME IN VAIN.
📌When we make the expression of His name (Jesus) part of our everyday conversation, we are devaluing the sanctity of the NAME AND TAKING IT IN VAIN.
📌When we treat services and gatherings where His Word is revealed casually without regard, we are taking his Name in VAIN.🤔
📌Attack on the Men of God, the church are ways designed by the enemy to sponsor the TAKING OF HIS NAME IN VAIN.
If we think about it, we will see countless instances where we do not HALLOW THIS GREAT NAME.
Can’t even speak of how the media has transgressed in this. You look around and all expressions, ideas and conceptions are all targeted towards debasing the Name of God.
WHAT IS HOLY SHOULD BE TREATED AS HOLY AND NOT DRAGGED TO THE MUD!¡
Christ speaking in Matthew 28 :19 says expressly:
19 “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:”
🙌🏿
🗣️🔥🔥KOVRODOSKEBELEZILAI KOROTOMONO
THIS SCRIPTURE ALSO MEANS: TEACH THEM AND BAPTIZE/BRAND/NAME AFTER THE AUTHORITY OF THE FATHER, AFTER THE CONCEPT OF THE SON AND AFTER ALL THE HOLY GHOST REPRESENTS!!!
They will know the Name of the Father, the SOURCE of all things, life and consciousness because HE IS BEFORE ALL THINGS AND ABOVE ALL THINGS. Teaching and baptizing them in the NAME OF THE FATHER brings them this reality of God.
To teach and baptize them in the Name of the Son also means to bring to their knowledge, that the FATHER came in human form to restore all things to HIMSELF.
To teach and to baptize them in the name of the Holy Ghost also means to expose them to the reality of the dimension of the Father as life giver, helper, counselor, revealer, comforter, power and so much more.

THESE NAMES ARE DIMENSIONS GOD CHOOSES TO EXPRESS HIMSELF AND HIS WILL TO US. WE MUST NOT TAKE THEM IN VAIN🙌🏿
Finally, it is important to know that not HALLOWING THE NAME OF GOD makes us partake in the workings of iniquity.
There’s a generation called WORKERS OF INIQUITY. They promote the one thing that wants to abolish from His creation: INIQUITY🤔
The scripture says RIGHTEOUSNESS (HOLINESS) AND JUSTICE ARE THE FOUNDATION OF GOD’S THRONE.
Jesus gave us a glimpse of the workers of iniquity in Matthew 7 : 21 – 23
21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
👁️
This is the danger of taking the name of the LORD IN VAIN🤔
Are they part of the Church? Yes in the sense of association.
Are they children of the Kingdom? Yes in the sense of association
Are they tongue talking? Yes
But here’s the thing, they are obstacles to the propagation of the very Kingdom they are propagating.
How?
They are separating the Kingdom Of God from the Name of God and dragging it through the mud by their lifestyle.
DO NOT TAKE THE NAME OF THE LORD THY GOD IN VAIN.
IT IS THE WILL OF THE FATHER THAT WE HALLOW HIS DIVINE EPITHETS WITHOUT RESERVATIONS FOR ALL THINGS RESTS UPON IT.
ETERNAL FATHER WE PRAY THAT YOUR MERCY WILL SPEAK FOR US IN PLACES WE HAVE TAKING YOUR NAME IN VAIN.
BLESSINGS FAMILY.
❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥💜💜💜💜
GRANT US THE SPIRIT OF ENCOUNTER THAT WE MAY KEEP YOUR NAME SACRED ALL THE DAYS OF OUR LIVES.
AMENNNNNNNNÑNNNN
