Hallowed Be Thy Name Means Exalt All God Is
-
Pray For God's Glory Before Your Requests
- Pray that whatever brings God glory be done, not merely personal gain.
- John MacArthur advises asking God to act in ways that exalt His name even if outcomes differ from personal desires.
Name It Theology Diminishes God
- Contemporary 'name-it' theology treats God like a genie and demeans His nature.
- MacArthur calls it irreverent and says it effectively takes God's name in vain by making man sovereign.
