Summary

Hallowed is an old English word that means to treat something as sacred. It means to be captivated, astonished, melted with grateful joy for who God is and what he has done. For many years, I felt I didn’t know how to praise God, because nobody ever gave me specifics. As we look now at one phrase in the Lord’s Prayer, “Hallowed be thy name,” we’ll look at five aspects that are all needed if we’re going to praise. There are five aspects to praise and adoration: 1) thinking, 2) expressing, 3) appraising, 4) beholding, and 5) resting. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on October 5, 2014. Series: The Prayer of Prayers. Scripture: Psalm 63:1-11. Today's podcast is brought to you by Gospel in Life, the site for all sermons, books, study guides and resources from Timothy Keller and Redeemer Presbyterian Church.

0:48.3	My whole being longs for you and a dry and parched land where there is no water.
0:53.8	I have seen you in the sanctuary
0:55.7	and beheld your power and your glory. Because your love is better than life, my lips will

1:09.7	I will be fully satisfied as with the richest of foods.
1:13.6	With singing lips, my mouth will praise you. On my bed, I remember you. I think of you through the

1:37.0	They will be given over to the sword and become food for jackals. But the king will rejoice in God.
1:44.0	All who swear by God will glory in him while the mouths of
1:47.8	liars will be silenced. This is the word of the Lord. Now as you know, this fall we're looking at
