"You shall not misuse
the name
of the LORD your God.
For the LORD
will not hold anyone
guiltless who misuses His name.”
Ex 20:7
Hosea 6:3
“So, Let us know;
let us press on
to know the LORD.
His going out is sure as the dawn;
He will come to us as the showers,
as the spring rains
that water the earth.”
“Trust in the LORD
with all your heart,
and do not lean
on your own understanding.
In all your ways
Acknowledge Him,
and He will make straight your paths.”
Prov. 3:5-6
“Trust in the LORD and do good.
Then you will live safely in the land and prosper.
Take delight in the LORD,
and he will give you your heart’s desires.
Commit everything you do to the LORD.
Trust Him, and He will help you.
Psa 37: 3-5
Jer 9: 23-25
Thus says the LORD:
“Let not the wise man boast in his wisdom,
let not the mighty man boast in his might,
let not the rich man boast in his riches,
but, let him who boasts
boast in this,
that he understands and knows Me,
that I am the LORD
who practices steadfast love,
justice, and righteousness in the earth.
For in these things I delight, declares the LORD.”

GOD wants loyalty, honesty, obedience, and respect.
HE gives us the delight of His heart; the gift ofLOVE, JUSTICE & RIGHTEOUSNESS in the earth. He rains on the just and the unjust! He practices all of this, on us!
We are all fed. We all have LIFE. For some, LIFE IN THE LORD. Unfortunately, there are ones who refuse LIFE, and ultimately they condemn themselves by their own pride, unreasoning, and stupidity. Some are so staunchly rebellious. But rain, Light, LOVE belongs to them too, if they would only receive it.
Christian, it is so important not to misuse the Lord, His name, and His generosity. His name is HOLY, God is holy. God will not be mocked (scripture says) or disrespected without a consequence. He will not let the one who curses or misuses His name go without dealing with them; now, or in the end. We are all held accountable. Don’t let the little things in this world like the OMG’s, and the whatever’s be in your heart and out of your tongue. Do not let anything of disrespect come out of your mouth concerning God. Remember WHO He is. He is GOD! Not one man can match the matchless God.
We are to respect Him, delight IN Him, Trusting IN Him, most of all ACKNOWLEDGE Him. And in all of that “doing,” we get to know Him! Isn’t God ultimately in control? Our very steps are ordered!
