“I will wash mine hands in innocency: So will I compass thine altar, O LORD: That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving, And tell of all thy wondrous works.”
Psalm 26:6-7 KJV
David says in this psalm, “When I come to your altar, Yahweh, I’ll be clean before you, approaching with songs of thanksgiving, singing songs of your mighty miracles.” He realises that to approach the Presence of God requires him to be clean and pure focusing on God and His marvellous works in his life, testifying of them with thanksgiving in his heart. When Christ initiated the new covenant He said, “Is not the cup of thanksgiving for which we give thanks a participation in the Blood of Christ? And is not the bread that we break a participation in the body of Christ?” Because the Blood of Jesus Christ cleanses us from all sin. We are thankful to Him for cleansing and sanctifying us to be a sacrifice of thanksgiving to God through His Son, Jesus Christ. By being thankful to God, our Father, we present our bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to Him, which is our reasonable service. Amen!
