The Name of The Lord
I’ve always known the name of Jesus, my God, has power. It has a power to heal. It has a power to change lives.
Yet there are those today who abuses this powerful name for a mere insult. They just throw it around when they’re angry or frustrated. This world has so much contempt over the one true God.
It makes me sad that anyone would use God’s name in vain. God strictly prohibits it (Exodus 20:7). Maybe the mere fact that I’m offended by the misuse, it’s the very reason they abuse it. They want to use God’s name as a mean to anger and stir up emotions.
I rather use God’s name to bless and to save people. That’s what He promised will happen:
For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile—the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
Romans 10:12-13
