The Question Is...

Who may worship in your sanctuary, Lord? Who may enter your presence on your holy hill?
Psalm 15:1 NLT

And the answer is:

Those who lead blameless lives and do what is right, speaking the truth from sincere hearts. 

Those who refuse to gossip or harm their neighbors or speak evil of their friends. 

Those who despise flagrant sinners, and honor the faithful followers of the Lord, and keep their promises even when it hurts. 

Those who lend money without charging interest, and who cannot be bribed to lie about the innocent.

Such people will stand firm forever. Psalm 15:2-5

Prayer:

Father, 

           We want to be the people who will stand firm forever! Keep us ever mindful of what it takes to be in Your presence. In Jesus' Name we pray. Amen
