This Psalm expresses the essence of worship from David’s heartfelt perspective. Psalm 26:4 declares, “O LORD, I love the house where You dwell, the place where Your glory resides.”. In David’s day, people had to go to a physical location to experience the glory and manifest presence of God. How privileged we are in this New Covenant to be one spirit with the Lord, and able to boldly approach the throne of grace!
The Bible says we may behold the beauty of the Lord by looking into the Word, who is Jesus (2 Corinthians 3:18). As a child of God, there’s one pursuit that will never leave you wanting; this one thing – to know Jesus! It begins with a desire to know the One who knows you completely and loves you unconditionally. It continues with us drawing nearer to Him as we daily seek Him in the Word, and in times of intimate fellowship with Him.
Hebrews 11:6 promises that all it takes to find Him is faith, “…For whoever would come near to God must believe that God exists and that He is the rewarder of those who earnestly and diligently seek Him [out].” When we seek after Him, we will find Him and be satisfied, except of course, for a hunger to know Him more. Seek Him today, with all your heart and don’t be content with anything less.
