The Qualifications for Living Close to God!
Welcome, Faith Force Holy Mountain Climbers! Today, we’re learning what it takes to dwell close to God, as shared in Psalm 15:1-2.
Verse Of The Day:
"Lord, who may dwell in your sacred tent? Who may live on your holy mountain? The one whose walk is blameless, who does what is righteous, who speaks the truth from their heart" (Psalm 15:1-2)
Have you ever wondered what qualifications someone needs to live in a royal palace? David asks an even more important question – who gets to live close to God?
David asks “Lord, who may dwell in your sacred tent? Who may live on your holy mountain?” These represent the most special, holy places where God’s presence dwells. Not everyone can just walk in – there are important qualifications!
The answer reveals three requirements: “The one whose walk is blameless” (living with integrity and avoiding sin), “who does what is righteous” (consistently choosing what’s right and good), and “who speaks the truth from their heart” (being genuinely honest, not just with words but from deep inside). These aren’t impossible standards – they’re the character qualities that make someone fit to be close to our holy God!
Holy Mountain Qualification Card:
Create an official-looking qualification card using cardstock! Write “Qualified to Dwell with God” at the top, then list the three requirements: “Blameless Walk,” “Does What’s Righteous,” and “Speaks Truth From Heart.” Add a gold foil seal or sticker and sign your commitment to develop these qualities. Keep it as your reminder of what God values in those who live close to Him!
Time For A Prayer:
Dear God, help us develop the qualifications to dwell close to You! Help our walk be blameless, our actions righteous, and our hearts truthful. Thank You that You want us to live close to You on Your holy mountain. Shape our character so we can dwell in Your sacred presence with joy! Amen.
Keep developing your holy mountain qualifications, Faith Force Holy Mountain Climbers! Until our next Divine Dispatch, remember that those with blameless walks, righteous actions, and truthful hearts may dwell close to God!
