What if the names we use for God quietly steer our faith toward pride—or toward surrender? We dig into Joshua, Judges, and Acts to show how titles can sound holy while working against what God is actually doing. Adoni-Zedek and Adoni-Bezek look righteous by label, but their choices reveal fear, judgment, and a sobering lesson: it’s possible to wear the right words and still miss the will of God. From there we turn to Simon the Sorcerer in Acts 8. He believed, was baptized, and followed Philip, yet tried to buy the power of the Holy Spirit. Peter’s rebuke slices through every modern pitch that packages gifts, levels, or “activation” as commodities. We contrast that hunger for shortcuts with Philip’s steady obedience—preaching Christ, freeing the oppressed, healing the lame—and explore how contentment in your part honors the Spirit’s design without envy or self-promotion. Along the way we untangle how “Adonai,” “Elohim,” and “El Shaddai” are used, why substituting human lordship terms can shrink our vision of the Lord Almighty, and how vague God-talk drains courage from our witness. Say Jesus. The New Testament locates authority, salvation, and mission in His name, not in branding or vibes. Depth over levels, roots over rungs—that’s the path to a faith that holds when the wind rises. <a href='https://wofoyo.org/'>https://wofoyo.org/</a>             #wofoyo
