Sunday Morning Prayer

May 27, 2007

O Lord, who shall sojourn in your tent?
Who shall dwell on your holy hill?

He who walks blamelessly and does what is right
and speaks truth in his heart;
who does not slander with his tongue
and does no evil to his neighbor,
nor takes up a reproach against his friend;
in whose eyes a vile person is despised,
but who honors those who fear the Lord;
who swears to his own hurt and does not change;
who does not put out his money at interest
and does not take a bribe against the innocent.
He who does these things shall never be moved. (Psalm 15)

O God, make us fit and acceptable worshipers of You this day.  The only one who can ascend Your holy hill is the one who is blameless and does what is right.  And so we praise You for the Cross of our Lord Jesus, where You cleansed us from all iniquity, provided for us the perfect righteousness of Your Son, and purified for Yourself a people of Your own possession, zealous for good deeds.  So help us this day, Father, to walk in practice with the righteousness that we have positionally in Christ.
