*Psalm 24:3-6* - “*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”
*Prayer Points*
1. Vs 3 - Who may ascend into the hill of God? *Peculiar Person/People*
Father, we pray there shall be unprecedented passion and thirst in men to rise to the high place, that hill, where the Lord dwells and manifests Himself, that we may be more acquainted with You, and abide in the Secret Place where You unveil mysteries to us. IJN

2. Vs 3 - Or who may stand in His holy place? = *Peculiar Place*
Father, thank you because we are the righteousness of God in Christ. Therefore we come against any sense of condemnation, pride, or orphan spirit that may be preventing men from seeking You. We receive the humility and confidence to ascend the hill and to stand unashamedly in Your holy place. IJN
3. Vs 4 - He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who has not lifted up his soul to an idol = *Peculiar Profile*
Father, we receive the grace to keep away from all that defiles and condemns. Help us keep our garments spotless and free from the filth of the world and of the flesh. Let every idol - love of money, praise of men, delights of the senses, lust of the eyes and of the flesh - in men that may contest with You be dethroned and destroyed. IJN
4. Vs 4 - Nor sworn deceitfully = *Peculiar Pronouncement*
Father, let our every word and every conversation be honouring to You and bring encouragement to other men. Make us promise keepers to our spouse, children, family, colleagues, and other men. Help us be men of integrity and men of conviction in ministry and in the marketplace IJN.
5. Vs 5 - He shall receive blessing from the Lord = *Peculiar Privilege*
Father, it is Your prerogative to command the blessing. We declare an end to toiling, struggle, and hardship in every aspect of life. So we make ourselves targets to receive the blessings that flow from deep communion with You.
6. Vs 5 - And righteousness from God of his salvation = *Peculiar Predisposition*
Father, we declare we are justified and sanctified by Your word. We receive your promise that “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled. Cause us to have a convincing and compelling divine encounter with Your word IJN.
7. Vs 6 - This is Jacob, the generation of those who seek Him, who seek Your face. _Selah_ = *Peculiar Prayer*
Father, help us to continually seek Your face diligently in prayer like Jacob, to obtain Your favour and remain in Your love. As Jacob wrestled with God and prevailed, we receive the grace to seek You and to find You IJN.
