Guidance towards Godliness

Psalm 15 and 25
Guidance towards Godliness

The book of Psalms addresses all the feelings one could experience, challenges we might face and also offers guidance for serving the Lord. Let’s spend some time and discuss these over the next few days or weeks, depending on how the Lord leads us.

How do we live a blameless and Godly life, if it is even possible?

Can we 1) walk with integrity 2) exercise righteousness 3) speak truth in our heart 4) refrain from slandering with our tongue 5) love our neighbour as ourselves?

The above already seems like a tall order, but wait, there is more;

Do you 6) easily take offense and get upset with a person if they have said or done something to someone else 7) despise those that have seemingly rejected the gospel 8) honor those who fear the Lord 9) Keep your word, even at your own “demise” 10) deal honestly and fairly in business?

Living a righteous and morally upright life according to God’s standards, while dealing honestly with others is only possible if we have accepted Christ as the only mediator between us and God, loving the Lord wholeheartedly, thus seeking Him with our whole being and longing after fellowship with Him.
