Devotional
When we become Christians, we take on Christ’s name. Like a bride taking her husband’s name, we become identified with Him. This is both a profound privilege and a serious responsibility. Every action, every word, every attitude we display reflects on the name we now bear. It’s not just about avoiding obvious misuse of His name – it’s about representing Him well in everything we do.
Bible Verse
“A good name is better than precious ointment.” – Ecclesiastes 7:1
Reflection Question
How might your daily actions and attitudes change if you were constantly aware that you carry Christ’s name?
Quote “We have taken his name. We are united to him in Christ and therefore everything we do reflects on his name.”
Prayer
Father, make me mindful that I carry Your name. Help me to represent You well in all I do and say. May my life bring honor, not dishonor, to Your name. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
