Hallow is not a word many are familiar with. It means to make something holy or sacred. When Christ teaches us how we should pray, we first must position ourselves as little children whose Dad is also the Creator and Sustainer of everything visible and invisible, who sits above all power and dominion. What an amazing thought. But then Christ teaches that we are to hallow His name.

Moses is drawn toward this strange sight—a bush on fire, yet not consumed. When he approaches, the voice of God speaks to him from the bush, telling him to take off his sandals because he is standing on holy ground. God reveals Himself to Moses through this image of a burning bush, teaching us about His character and His work within us.
