Father
Father
“Pray, then, in this way: ‘Our Father, who is in heaven, Hallowed be Your name.
Not an earthly Father which is imperfect
That which has been born of the flesh is flesh, and that which has been born of the Spirit is spirit.
A Perfect Father surpassing our expectations. Patient Father always accepting us back. Interested Father concerned an cares for each of us individually
“Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.
And do not call anyone on earth your father; for only One is your Father, He who is in heaven.
Heaven
Heaven
God’s throne and a place we cannot fully understand
This is what the Lord says: “Heaven is My throne and the earth is the footstool for My feet. Where then is a house you could build for Me? And where is a place that I may rest?
Hallowed
Hallowed
The idea is to set apart, consecrate, make sacred.
Name
Name
The word used here represents three concepts:
Cause
Cause
His creation is holy.
Then God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because on it He rested from all His work which God had created and made.
His redemptive work is holy.
For He rescued us from the domain of darkness, and transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
His plan for you is holy.
For I know the plans that I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans for prosperity and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.
Stop and think about that. God has a holy specific plan for each of us that interacts with everyone else in a way that we cannot fully understand.
Authority
Authority
God’s authority is unquestionable.
When all things are subjected to Him, then the Son Himself will also be subjected to the One who subjected all things to Him, so that God may be all in all.
Everything falls under His control and authority. Since He created it He owns it. He is a perfect Lord.
Name
Name
Yahweh:Said as a breath. First part on inhale. Second part on exhale
Think about that. Every time you breath you are saying God’s name. Let that really sink in. GOD breathed His name into you at creation.
Then the Lord God formed the man of dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and the man became a living person.
With each breath you are saying His name. Every demeaning word, un-edifying word, un-encouraging word is said with God’s name. That should cause you to stop and think before you talk.
The above three concepts are universal. Meaning it does not matter if you are a Christian or not. Every living thing will be held judged according to God’s cause/authority/name.
What does Isaiah 66:1 say to you about the relationship between Heaven and Earth?
Are we capable to fully understand Heaven and what that entails/means/encompasses?
Is there any new idea that struck you about ὄνομα? For me, it is what it really means that Yahweh is said as a breath and that GOD breathed His name into me.
‘Your kingdom come. Your will be done, On earth as it is in heaven.
