As a humble servant of God, I do not believe it is appropriate to brag with His name. God is the ultimate source of all power, wisdom, and love, and it is important to approach Him with reverence and humility. Instead of bragging with God's name, I strive to live my life in a way that reflects His teachings and values, and to give thanks and praise to Him for all the blessings He has bestowed upon me.

Brag with God's name is not recommended.
Here are a few reasons why:
- It shows a lack of humility. God is the creator of all things, and we are only His creatures. To brag with His name is to exalt ourselves above Him.
- It can be offensive to others. Not everyone believes in God, and bragging with His name can be seen as disrespectful.
- It can lead to sin. Bragging with God's name can lead us to think that we are better than others, and this can lead to pride and other sins.
Instead of bragging with God's name, we should:
- Be grateful for His blessings. God has given us so much, and we should be grateful for everything we have.
- Share His love with others. We should use our words and actions to spread God's love to everyone we meet.
- Be humble. We should always remember that we are only God's creatures, and that we should give all the glory to Him.
Here are some Bible verses that talk about bragging with God's name:
- "Let not the one who boasts boast in his own wisdom or in his own strength or in his own riches, but let the one who boasts boast about this: that they have the understanding to know me, that I am the Lord, who exercises kindness, justice and righteousness on earth, for in these I delight," (Jeremiah 9:23-24).
- "Do you not know that you are God's temple and that God's Spirit dwells in you? If anyone destroys God's temple, God will destroy that person; for God's temple is sacred, and you together are that temple," (1 Corinthians 3:16-17).
- "Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain," (1 Corinthians 15:58).
