To whom the name, the kingdom and the will belong?

Matthew 6:9-10, “Pray, then, in this way: Our Father who is in heaven, Hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done, On earth as it is in heaven”.
The Lord teaches us to pray for God's Name to be glorified, for His Kingdom to reign, and His Will to be done on earth today. These three events occur in a limited way in the congregations of LSM in Vietnam.

1. About Use Of Names:
Witness Lee wrote the following words in the preface of LSM's hymn book, printed for the first time as follows: “for the omission of the author’s and composer’s name from the top of each hymn” in order to hinder “the reader to give glory to the man instead of to the Lord, the true inditer of each hymn…”.
These are the lies of Witness Lee, for in the morning revival book with name of Witness Lee clearly printed on the cover, for the purpose of honoring a human being, robbed the glory of our glorious God's Name. In Viet nam churches, Witness Lee is increasingly praised, mentioning his name always in the meetings, "W.L. says that…, WL. said this. ....".

2. About the Kingdom:
The Kingdom of God speaks of the realm of exercise of God's rulership. The kingdom of God was not clearly seen in the hearts of the LSM saints in Vietnam, but the kingdom of Witness Lee was clearly evident. The elders in Vietnam absolutely guard and watch for each saint in the LSM's organizational apparatus, making them no longer a flock of sheep enjoying in the pastures, for elders fear that some sheep will escape, and run away from LSM.

3. About Will:
In the LSM churches in Vietnam, God's will is only a symbolic character, and is ignored. Witness Lee's will and commandments were strictly enforced, for example, to obey reciting the revival morning book during the meetings, to re-preach the sermons given by the LSM, not to lecture outside the stream, to organize a new Nicolaitan party, including the ranks such as co-workers, elders, full-timers , Nazarites.

I pray that God will soon restore His Name to glory, build His Kingdom and fulfill His irrevocable will in the recovery congregations in Vietnam before Lord Jesus comes back. Amen.
