Psalm 15:1-5 A Psalm by David. LORD, who shall dwell in your sanctuary? Who shall live on your holy hill? He who walks blamelessly and does what is right, and speaks truth in his heart; he who doesn’t slander with his tongue, nor does evil to his friend, nor casts slurs against his fellow man; in whose eyes a vile man is despised, but who honors those who fear the LORD; he who keeps an oath even when it hurts, and doesn’t change; he who doesn’t lend out his money for usury, nor take a bribe against the innocent. He who does these things shall never be shaken.”

We can’t live on God’s holy hill or dwell in His sanctuary. We aren’t righteous enough, which is why we need Jesus! However, we do see how we should try to life under the power of God’s Holy Spirit. Speak the truth. Don’t slander. Treat people with respect and kindness. Abhor evil. Love God’s people. Do what you say you will do. Don’t charge your brethren interest or pervert the course of justice.

Micah 6:8 “He has shown you, O man, what is good. What does the LORD require of you, but to act justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God?”

One thought on “Devotional Reading for January 23, 2025

  1. Amen! A roadmap of how we should live our lives. Yesterday, I was pondering Micah 6:8 in the light of recent events, and now today it is a secondary verse used in your daily devotion.
