🔒 DON'T MENTION THEIR NAMES
> "Their drink offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take up their names into my lips."
Psalm 16:4
There are names that, when mentioned, provoke certain actions and activities in the realm of the spirit, while others defile the speaker instantly.
John saw a woman full of names of blasphemy:
> "So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns."
Revelation 17:3
⚠️ Beware! Some names, when spoken, amount to blasphemy, negative confession, or perverse speech.
This is why David refused to call the uncircumcised Philistine by name:
> "For who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?"
1 Samuel 17:26
“Goliath” means a formidable opponent, giant, or obstacle. David would not affirm or glorify the strength of his enemy by uttering his name.
🙏 PRAYER
Almighty God,
Rid my mouth of words and speakings that invalidate and demystify my faith and stand in You.
Amen.
