You shall not misuse the name of the LORD your God, for the LORD will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name. Exodus 20:7
I don't swear, not even a little. My swear words are "Crap" and "that sucks". Ok, some might think those are swear words, but that's me. I don't swear or use curse words. Never did, and hopefully, never will.
But I did find that this dare still speaks to me.
I may not use the Lord's name as a curse word, but how often do I use His name otherwise?
For example, texting...you know what I'm talking about...OM_!
When I'm exciting or surprised ... Oh my G___.
I need to learn to revere His name and keep His name holy. His name is not a curse-word. It's not a name for excitement.
Father God - Your Name is above all names. Your name is Holy. The name of Jesus has so much power to heal, to save, to deliver, to set-free. May I always be reminded of this, and only lift your name in Honor and Glory. In Jesus' Name - AMEN!
