Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name

"In this manner, therefore, pray:
Our Father in heaven,
Hallowed be Your name."

Matthew 6:9 (New King James Version)

We serve a Holy God . His name is higher than any other name , When we say 'Hallowed be Your name" we are acknowledging His Holiness... we are coming into His presence with reverence. We read in Isaiah 6 : 2-3 "Above it stood seraphim; each one had six wings: with two he covered his face, with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew.And one cried to another and said: “ Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of hosts; The whole earth is full of His glory!” " Wow .. can you imagine that ? So many times we tend to forget the Holiness of our God.

Many of us when we pray we have a slack attitude, we forget we are in the presence of the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. How many of us , when we have a meeting with our manager or director, make sure we get in early ? If its a meeting with the Client then we have our clothes already all picked out and well pressed , we make sure we are on time ...even if we are a minute late we apologize... How many of us get to church on time ?

We all sing 'How great is our God..sing with me how great is our God"...how many of us make sure we spend exclusive time in the presence of our great God ?

Such an awesome powerful mighty Holy God ,,, and yet we tend to say "Sorry I dont have time for you today !"...Angels cry out saying "Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of hosts" and to such a Holy God we willingly choose to defile His temple ( I Corinthians 6 : 19-20 "Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own? For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s." ). Our Body and Spirit is God's .Its Holy ! We need to handle it with reverence... and not fill it with impurity, unclean words and thoughts,...

"In this manner, therefore, pray: Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name."
