Great AND terrible NAME

Great AND terrible NAME

Ps. 99:2-3

The Lord IS GREAT in Zion, [He dwells among His own people and manifests His power and glory in a special manner]

and He IS HIGH ABOVE all the peoples. [all are under the rule of His control]

Let them [those that dwell where they have witnessed the manifestation of His power and glory] praise Your GREAT and TERRIBLE NAME [which is the perfection of justice and power]

[For] It IS HOLY.

[the NAME itself is as pure and righteous as He is, and therefore worthy of praise and honor]

Pray the Word:
Lord, Your NAME is above and beyond all names. It’s a NAME that cannot be equaled with any other because there is no NAME to compare it with.  It’s a NAME that will not only soothe, still and calm but also heals the brokenhearted and binds them up. It’s a NAME that comforts all who mourn and provides for those who grieve. A NAME that changes even the hardest of hearts and harshest of ways and a NAME that can be called on to save even the vilest of sinners. It’s a NAME that cannot be called upon without something supernatural to happen on the inside of the heart of the speaker.  It’s a NAME that can be called upon in the deepest and darkest of nights when words are not easily found. It’s a NAME that is so powerful that when it is spoken aloud, demons tremble because they know exactly who He is. It’s a NAME that can be called upon for the healing of any need.  And at JUST THE MENTION OF THAT NAME, even though in just a whisper, He will hear us. That NAME that we speak of is none other than . . . JESUS!
