What God looks for when we come to worship

"Who may ascend the mountain of the LORD? Who may dwell in His holy place?

"The one who has clean hands and a pure heart."
                                       -- Psalm 24:3-4


I've been thinking about these verses the past few days. 
David is talking about worship here...how we are to approach God when we enter His presence...we need to prepare ourselves for worship....we need to get ready for worship when we come to church - and it's not about  suitable physical attire he's talking about!

And I need to work on this.


Jesus said, "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God."


So how do I get those "clean hands" and a "pure heart"?


Praise God for His promise:
"If we confess our sins He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness." 1 John 1:9


             And that's how we get ready for church!
