V1,V2
The earth is the Lord’s, and all its fullness,
The world and those who dwell therein.
2 For He has founded it upon the seas,
And established it upon the [a]waters.
Mans strongest character is possession.
A baby says my toys. A teenager says my gadgets,my games, my shoes.
A grown up says my love, a married man says my family, a a family says my house, A old man says my wisdom.
a dying man says everything is vain.
But this verse says earth is LORD's. and all its fullness. The world and those who dwell therein.
See the magnanimous possession.
Earth and fullness of it. - The Vast Land, The Plains, the mountains, the valleys,
The seas, All the vegetation, all the livestock - All the people - belongs to God.
Ephesians 3:14
14 For this reason I bow my knees to the Father [f]of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15 from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,
When you know the whole Word is God, everyone belongs to God.
Bow your knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ -
Everyone and Everything belongs to the Lord.
Purity of hearts is from double minded ness.
James 4:8
8 Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded

V 3-6
Who may ascend into the hill of the Lord?
Or who may stand in His holy place?
4 He who has clean hands and a pure heart,
Who has not lifted up his soul to an idol,
Nor sworn deceitfully.
5 He shall receive blessing from the Lord,
And righteousness from the God of his salvation.
6 This is Jacob, the generation of those who seek Him,
Who seek Your face. Selah

Clean your hands :
Sometime back when i had a skin related issue, the dermatologist said always clean your hands. Keep a hand sanitizer and always keep your hands clean.
When you go any restaurants in the restroom , it says Employees must wash their hands before return.
In a hospital, whenever the nurse or doctor enters a patient room before and after they clean their hands.
This cleaning of hands has a great significance.
It keeps the germs away. It keeps the problems away.
In Spiritual realm, He who has a clean hands and pure heart have significance.
Clean hands does not mean - I dont know, I dont care
He who knows what is right and does not do it , it is sin to him.
22 Pilate said to them, “What then shall I do with Jesus who is called Christ?”
They all said to him, “Let Him be crucified!”
23 Then the governor said, “Why, what evil has He done?”
But they cried out all the more, saying, “Let Him be crucified!”
24 When Pilate saw that he could not prevail at all, but rather that a [c]tumult was rising, he took water and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, “I am innocent of the blood of this [d]just Person. You see to it.”
25 And all the people answered and said, “His blood be on us and on our children.”
By just washing your hands - you cannot say that your hands are clean.
When you are in authority of something, Your choice will reveal your hands are clean.
If you have committed something against the Lord, you cannot just wash your hands and come and sit in the presence of the Lord.
You have to have godly repentance.
2 Corinthians 7 : 10
10 Godly sorrow brings repentance that leads to salvation and leaves no regret, but worldly sorrow brings death.
Judas had worldly sorrow that brought death to him.
Even a sorry also wont help you a clean hands.
Pharaoh - Whenever there is a plague, pharaoh would say sorry sorry , please pray. and after the plague is done again his heart is hardened.
There is no godly sorrow inside of him.
Do you know why many people commits repetitive sins like pharaoh, because there is no real godly sorrow in their heart.
Clean hands and pure heart go same way.
Purity of hearts is from double minded ness.
James 4:8
8 Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded
Todays Gods presence is taken so lightly.
We are living in a time and season where the reverence for God is at the lowest, especially with all technology advancement.
that people watch video games, people text, people watch videos in facebook, worship time.
This psalm is a psalm of worship to God.
Hebrews 12:28,29
28 Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe, 29 for our “God is a consuming fire.”[f]
