Preparation for the Sabbath. But I into thy house will come in thine abundant grace; And I will worship in thy fear toward thy holy place. 📖Psalm 5:7 David was much in secret worship, prayed often alone (Psalms 5:2,3), and yet was very constant and devout in his attendance on the sanctuary. The duties of the closet are designed to prepare us for, not to excuse us from, public ordinances. To worship him reverently and with a due sense of the infinite distance there is between God and man: “In thy fear will I worship, with a holy awe of God upon my spirit,” Hebrews 12:28. God is greatly to be feared by all his worshippers. To take his encouragement, in worship, from God himself only. [Matthew Henry]
