HIS NAME
Today's reading: Leviticus 22-24

"Do not treat my name as common and ordinary..." Leviticus 22:32 NLT

God's instruction should flavor, color and affect each and every prayer I pray...

When I cry out in help, I should take in to consideration to Whom I am calling, the power He holds and the promises He has made to rescue me.

When I humble myself before Him in repentance, my heart should be broken over my sin, my mind willing to make the necessary changes required to not fall back into old ways, I should realize He knows--He knows my heart and the intentions behind anything I do.

When I praise Him. He is owed more praise than I could ever offer. He has created me for the purpose of praising Him. He is due praise more often than I could produce.

When I speak His name. The Holy Name of God. The Creator. The Great and Powerful God. The Jehovah.

There is nothing common or ordinary about His name, and I must bring that to memory each and every time I call out to Him.
