“LORD, who can abide in Your house?” (v.1)
It is commonly believed that this psalm was written by David to celebrate the bringing of the Ark to Mount Zion. The first words of this psalm are almost a repetition of the awe-struck question of the stricken men of Beth Shemesh in 1 Samuel 6:20, “Who is able to stand before this holy LORD God?"
The answer to both questions is found in verses 2-3. If we heed that instruction, we shall not only dwell in His royal palace, but we shall not be moved from our character while here on earth.
The Truth: “He has shown you, O man, what is good; and what the LORD requires of you? But to do justly, to love mercy, and walk humbly with your God.” (Micah 6:8)
