David Jeremiah Daily Devotional for Today 19th February 2025
In the Old Testament, the closest one could get to “seeing” God was to go up to the temple on Mount Zion in Jerusalem—referred to as God’s “holy hill” (Psalm 2:6). Psalm 24:3 asks who can ascend that hill and “stand in His holy place?” The answer: “He who has clean hands and a pure heart” (verse 4). That person “shall receive blessing from the Lord” (verse 5).
Jesus summarized these verses in the Sermon on the Mount by saying, “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.” “See[ing] God” is not to be taken literally but is a metaphor for beholding Him in His glory. It is not easy to maintain a pure heart; it requires a conscious choice. Job made a covenant with his eyes (Job 31:1). And the father in Proverbs warned his son to guard his heart and his tongue, not to have wandering eyes, and to keep his feet on a straight path (Proverbs 4:23-27). A pure heart is synonymous with consecration to God which leads to continual blessings by God.
Choose today to guard your heart, your hands, and your path as you walk in this world.
Access to God lies open to none but His pure worshippers.
John Calvin
Read-Thru-the-Bible: Numbers 30-32
