“Who may worship in Your sanctuary, Lord? Who may enter Your presence on your holy hill? Those who lead blameless lives and do what is right, speaking the truth from sincere hearts. Those who refuse to gossip or harm their neighbors or speak evil of their friends. Those who despise flagrant sinners, and honor the faithful followers of the Lord, and keep their promises even when it hurts. Those who lend money without charging interest, and who cannot be bribed to lie about the innocent. Such people will stand firm forever.” ~Psalm 15 (NLT)
We should desire to live blameless lives and walk uprightly. The way we will be able to do these things is to ask God to fill us with His power. It is only through Christ that we live blameless lives. Pray that God would strengthen you to walk uprightly and practice these things listed. Then you will never be moved!

Be Sin For Us
“For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.” ~2 Corinthians 5:21
God, out of His eternal love for us, sent His only Son to become a man and die for all of our sins. He took upon Himself all the sin of the world and paid the price so we wouldn’t have to. His blood covered our sins. He knew no sin, He was perfect, complete, and He became sin just so we might have life. It is because of His blood that we are now righteous in His sight. Not because of who we are or because of what we have done, but because of who He is and what He has done!
