THE TRUE AND ACCEPTABLE WORSHIP
Who may ascend the mountain of the Lord ? Who may stand in his holy place? The one who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not trust in an idol or swear by a false god. They will receive blessing from the Lord and vindication from God their Savior. Such is the generation of those who seek him, who seek your face, God of Jacob. Psalms 24:3-6
God’s ultimate desire from every mankind is WORSHIP. However, you cannot barge irreverently into God’s presence and receive His blessings. There is a prerequisite for entering into His holy presence. Saying long prayers or giving bogus offerings mean nothing unless you approach His glorious presence on His conditions.
The requirements include blameless life and a heart already purified with the blood of Jesus Christ. Only the righteousness that comes by faith in Jesus Christ guarantees direct access to the throne of grace and qualifies you for His blessings.
Anything short of that is unacceptable and a mere wasting of time and resources. May your life and every element of your worship be found suitable and acceptable to stand in His Holy presence today in Jesus name. Happy Lord’s Day.
Your brother,
