- - Answer questions 7-10 (bottom right)
- - - 7) What can be a benefit of reading this psalm before coming before God in worship? (Quiz Short Answer 1)
- - - - Here are some ideas shared by previous classes:
- - - - Confession: Sin separates us from getting close to God, this psalm can help us confess & repent from our sins to receive God’s forgiveness.
- - - - Focus: This can also help keep you from distractions, focusing you on what is most important & right to be & do in life
- - - - Relationships: This can help keep you from causing problems in relationships with people—things that distract us from God
- - - - Preparation: You can get your heart ready for whatever God has in store for you
- - - 8) In general, who is fit to draw near to God in worship? 
- - - - Those who are righteous, even perfect! - - - 9) The Bible tells that all have sinned, so how do you think one can become ‘fit’ for worship? 
- - - - The Bible shares that we receive this through a relationship with God through confession & repentance with faith in Jesus Christ- - - - We enter this relationship with God by...
- - - - - Admitting our sins (agree with God about them)
- - - - - Believing in Him (through Jesus, what He said)
- - - - - Confessing Him as Savior & Lord
- - - - - - And thus committing our life to Him!
- - - - After this, though, even those who are in a relationship with Jesus will sometimes make mistakes & sin
- - - - - No problem--come right back to God, confessing even these sins to God, asking His forgiveness & repenting of them
- - - - - You can be confident that He forgives you!
- - - 10) List three areas (from verses 2-5) that you need to work on this week as you draw closer to God's presence.
