"That men may know that you, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, are the most high over all the earth." - Psalms 83:18
American King James Version
As a child you probably recited the Lords Prayer many many times. It starts out..."Our Father in the heavens, let your name be sanctified." I laughed while writing this because we name everything! Our children, our pets, some even name their cars!! Astronomers estimate that there are over 100 billion stars in our Milky Way galazy alone. Isaiah 40:26 reads, "Raise your eyes high up and see. Who has created these things? It is the One who is bringing forth the army of them even my number, alll of whom he calls even by name." If God has named all the stars and we name our cars, does it make sense that God has a name? He wants his "name" sanctified. Not his title, God or Lord.
