Psalm 24
• Declaration of the Lords Crown Rights
o The Earth
o Built it Upon The Seas/ Floods - Rested and Unrested State of Man
Sea – Placid or Unrested
Floods – Rivers – Floods of Ungodly Men; Rivers gently water the earth
Sea is mankind: Isa 57:19 I create the fruit of the lips; Peace, peace to him that is far off, and to him that is near, saith the LORD; and I will heal him.
Isa 57:20 But the wicked are like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt.
Isa 57:21 There is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked.
(Floods) Rivers are mankinds generations

• Who Shall Ascend to the Holy Hill of the Lord
Psa 24:3 Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his holy place?
Tempation is to say: Only Christ; that this Holy Hill is Heaven
Actually: The Transformed Man: Eph 2:10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
Psa 24:4 He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.
o Holy Hill – God’s Throne
Pinacle of Right and Good
Out of It Flows – Right and Good
o Ascend – Ark of the Covenant: Law being brought to Jerusalem
Notice the Ark was Tabernacled – in the Tabernacle in the Holy of Holies
It travelled ahead of the people
Heralded the Kings Will for the Land
Secondly
• Children of Israel were to Ascend to Jerusalem three times a year. Deut 16:16; Exodus 34:23

Clean Hands
Pure Heart
Not Lifted Soul unto vanity (Pure Heart)
• Taking the Name of the Lord in Vain
• Ignoring: Not Tendind to the Lord’s system: persuing your own vain glory
• Direct Suppression – Calling God’s System Vanity
Not Sworn Deceiftully (Clean Hands – works being performed in the earth)
• Swearing to perform
• Swearing as a Hedge
Pro 2:12 To deliver thee from the way of the evil man, from the man that speaketh froward things;
Pro 2:13 Who leave the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of darkness;
Pro 2:14 Who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the frowardness of the wicked;
Pro 2:15 Whose ways are crooked, and they froward in their paths:
Lord’s Blessing Upon
