Who Shall Abide In Thy Tabernacle?
“Lord, who shall abide in thy
tabernacle? Who shall dwell in thy holy hill? He that Walketh
uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his
heart. He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to
his neighbor, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbor. In
whose eyes a vile person is condemned; but he honoreth them that fear
the Lord. He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not. He
that putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh a reward against
the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved.”
Psalm 15
God cannot fellowship with sin,
therefore if we have any vestige of sin in our lives, we cannot
expect to enjoy the full fellowship of our Lord and Savior Jesus
Christ, even though we may be the children of God. We ought to
examine ourselves daily and keep short accounts with God so that we
will be able to abide with God and dwell in his holy hill. “If we
confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and
to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” 1 John 1: 9
Lets daily ask ourselves these
questions, and if we find ourselves guilty, let us judge ourselves
that we be not judged, and ask God's forgiveness: Do I walk
uprightly? Do I the works of righteousness? Do I speak truth in my
heart? Do I back bite with my tongue? Do I do evil to my neighbor?
Do I take a reproach against my neighbor? Do I keep my word even to
my own hurt? Do I fear the Lord and do I honor all them that do fear
the Lord? “He that doeth these things shall never be moved.”
