Psalms of the Summer
Acrisure we get this right
(chaos ensues, riots burn building to the ground, gateway closes, remaining notes only for historical record)
Psalm 24

Who could ascend to his hill and stand in his presence?
Clean hands, pure heart
Does lift up his soul to what is false nor swear deceitfully
Gets righteousness and blessing for the Lord
Lift up the gates!
King of glory is coming in!
Who is this King?
YHWH, mighty in battle
Bold claim
Earth - ertz - earth as opposed to heaven
Fullness - everything in it

YHWH is coming!
It is all his and he is entering the city!

Confidence in Him
Comfort in Him

Stop giving ourselves to it, and speaking with deceit
Instead, let’s lift up the gates!
Let Christ in!
