OT: The Book of Psalms, Psalm 24

Psalm 24:1-10

24:1-2 The earth and all that, all who, fill it belong to God. If we observe nature, we can see how precise and purposeful God is with His creations. That which bends to His will is cared for, arrayed in beauty and love.

24:3-6 Only a wholehearted pursuit will find God; but all wholehearted pursuits do. Intentional righteous behavior is able to receive blessing from God and perceive the understanding that He gives.

24:7-10 David, in this Psalm, called for us to open our gates... our hearts and lives to God. He encouraged us, emphatically, to open ourselves to His mighty precepts. He encouraged us to open up exclusively to God, our King of glory.
