The passage today deals with a question asked by an Old Testament character whom God described as the man after His own heart. His name was King David. He asked a very important question from God, the question that can be regarded as the “question of all questions”. David sought to know the qualifications for heaven. No question can be more relevant than this because getting to heaven to live with God forever should be the desire and goal of every person on earth.
Outward and inward holiness is the requirement for heaven.
Your hands must be clean and your heart must be pure. Christian boys and girls must make heaven their priority, ask questions and seek counsels from godly parents, teachers and other ministers of God on matters relating to the kingdom of God. Walk in the truth, live to please God and run away from corruptions and everything that can hinder you from making it to heaven at last.

Prayer for today: Lord, give me a heart that yearns to know you more.
1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
