But immediately the Lord recognized the work of the Enemy saying, “Get behind Me, Satan!

Psalm 15
Who may live with almighty God in heaven? If the list of requirements in Psalm 15 sound impossible, it’s supposed to be. Because the truth is, we can’t realize our need for Jesus until we understand how impossible it is for us to achieve God’s holiness. Romans 3:23 reminds us, “all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God”. We are all guilty. And everyone of us needs a Redeemer. This is why we must depend on Jesus. Because He is the One who can save, cleanse, and prepare us to dwell in His tent forever. In all the world, the Lord alone walked in perfect righteousness. And when we abide in Him and His power, we too can walk the path of righteousness. Never will we be shaken! And one glorious day, we will dwell with the Lord forever on God’s holy hill!
