Purity of Heart Needed In God’s Holy Place

Ps. 24:1-6

Notwithstanding the fact that some people do not believe that God exists or that He is relevant in the events happening in the world, the Scripture declares that the whole world and all the people who dwell in it belong to Him. Man’s belief or lack of belief in His existence does not diminish His claim to the ownership of creation. There are prerequisites to having personal relationship with God or making requests. God is pure and demands that those who would relate with Him must possess pure hearts. Human relationships rely mostly on external appearances, but God looks deeper into the heart of man. Without a pure heart, a person cannot enjoy fellowship with God neither can a person approach the presence of God. In essence, anyone without a pure heart is not a member of the commonwealth of God’s children.

POINT OF EMPHASIS: You cannot draw near to God without a pure heart.

PRAYER POINT: I pray that the blood of Jesus will cleanse my heart and make me worthy to come into God’s presence.
