THE STORY OF JESUS: Psalm 32
“I said, ‘I will confess my transgressions to the Lord.’ And you forgave the guilt of my sin.” Psalm 32:5)
David senses what an amazing thing it is to be forgiven by God.
It’s better than trying to deny or cover up sin… that only eats you up on the inside.
When we are honest with God, the burden is removed and we are renewed.
David urges everyone to join him in being honest with God, it’s the key to revival!
Don’t be stubborn or foolish (like a mule), it will only bring more trouble and heartache.
Allow God to embrace you with His gracious, forgiving love, you will not regret it.
So what am I waiting for, why do I talk about honesty and repentance, but not actually do it?
Do I want joy and gladness, to feel the burden lifted, to have my strength renewed…
The Lord is inviting me into the joy, blessing and healing of repentance.
Set aside some time (not just a few minutes), and open up to God.
Forget about the formalities and the fancy prayer language, just be honest and real.
Tell Him about every weakness, struggle, sin… He already knows anyway.
“If we confess our sins He will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.” (1 John 1:9)
Healing prayer, how we take hold of the victory and freedom Jesus offers through the cross.
What do you sense the Lord saying to you?
PRAYER
Lord, I need to stop thinking or talking about this, I need to do it. Thank You for the promise of renewal and blessing, as I open my heart to you!
