He who is

Perusing Ps79 this am and my heart caught on v9. There are two appearances of "Thy name" or "Your name" depending on the version. A con search gives us 113 yournames, of which 98 of them are with the capital Y -- not a coincidence to YHWH. It's not a coincidence that the reference also appears in the great prayer of God.

Frankly, His name is a prayer.

Going back to the identity theme raised so often here, and a sermon can be preached on this subset idea: your identity is rooted in Him, ergo your reputation reflects on His reputation. And throughout OT, His reputation is important to a degree which modern believers do not understand.

Saving lions, bobsledding down hills, fighting politics -- all of these accomplish the will of the liar -- to turn away potential believers and sully the name of God. If names are important, and I believe they are, how much more important is the holiest one of them all?
