The Characteristics of a True Worshipper - Psalm 15

1 {A Psalm of David.} LORD, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill?

2 He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart.

3 He that backbiteth not with his tongue, nor doeth evil to his neighbour, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbour.

4 In whose eyes a vile person is contemned; but he honoureth them that fear the LORD. He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not.

5 He that putteth not out his money to usury, nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved.

Commentary

The Psalmist begins by asking a fundamental question: "Lord, who may dwell in your sanctuary? Who may live on your holy hill?" He then provides a list of characteristics that define a true worshipper: one who walks blamelessly, does what is right, speaks truthfully, does not slander others, does not mistreat neighbors, despises evil, honors those who fear the Lord, keeps promises even when it is difficult, and does not exploit others for personal gain.This Psalm implies that true worship involves living a life of honesty and integrity as well as avoiding evil habits like lying and slandering. And it concludes with a confident affirmation of the Lord's faithfulness and protection for those who walk in righteousness.This Psalm challenges us to consider the state of our hearts and reminds us that true worship is not about performing religious obligations, but about living our entire lives according to God's will. Ultimately, Psalm 15 teaches that a life of genuine worship is not just about what we do but who we are becoming in Christ.
