Grace for your spirit August 6, 2009

Grace for your spirit

O LORD, who may abide in Your tent? Who may dwell Your holy hill ? He who walks with integrity, and works righteousness, And speaks truth in his heart. Psalm 15:1-2

The Old Covenant Jews loved the trip to God’s Holy Hill. The Temple in Jerusalem was the place they could feel good. Unfortunately their lack of faithfulness would not allow them to abide there. Our tent of the Lord, our holy hill, is our life in Christ Jesus. Just going to our church services and going through the motions will not make us the person Christ wants, anymore than sitting in a henhouse will make us a chicken. To abide in Christ, we must be a commitment to integrity, living right and speaking truth. These qualities are only found when we surrender our lives to Christ. That allows us to abide in His tent forever.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit

Philippians 3:23
