Anything you cover, He will uncover.
Anything you uncover, He will cover.
PRAY
Principle 4: Openly examine and confess my faults to myself, to God, and to someone I trust.
Step 5: We admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.
Story of sins I commited to God and Natalie before Christ and marriage.
Tie it to summary of when David sinned in a giant way.
Confess your shortcomings, resentments and sins.
13 He who covers his sins will not prosper,
But whoever confesses and forsakes them will have mercy.
Obey God’s directions.
11 For it is written:
“As I live, says the LORD,
Every knee shall bow to Me,
And every tongue shall confess to God.”
12 So then each of us shall give account of himself to God.
No more guilt.
23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,
Face the truth.
32 And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”
Ease the pain.
3 When I kept silent, my bones grew old
Through my groaning all the day long.
4 For day and night Your hand was heavy upon me;
My vitality was turned into the drought of summer.
Selah
5 I acknowledged my sin to You,
And my iniquity I have not hidden.
I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the LORD,”
And You forgave the iniquity of my sin.
Selah
Stop the blame.
3 And why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye, but do not consider the plank in your own eye? 4 Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me remove the speck from your eye’; and look, a plank is in your own eye? 5 Hypocrite!
First remove the plank from your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.
Start accepting God’s forgiveness.
19 that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.
Let’s look at David’s song of God’s forgiveness after he came clean.
PSALM 32
The Joy of Forgiveness
A Psalm of David.
A Contemplation.
1 Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven,
Whose sin is covered.
2 Blessed is the man to whom the LORD does not impute iniquity,
And in whose spirit there is no deceit.
Impute is a bookkeeping term that means “to put on the account, to add to the record.”
In our language, “front.”
When we confess our sins, God cancels the debt and it’s no longer on the books.
3 When I kept silent, my bones grew old
Through my groaning all the day long.
4 For day and night Your hand was heavy upon me;
My vitality was turned into the drought of summer.
Charles Spurgeon said, “God does not permit His children to sin successfully.”
The Lord chastened David for almost a year and made him miserable until he stopped lying, humbled himself before God, and confessed his sins.
Chastening isn’t a judge punishing a criminal; it’s a loving Father dealing with His disobedient children to bring them willingly to the place of surrender.
5 I acknowledged my sin to You,
And my iniquity I have not hidden.
I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the LORD,”
And You forgave the iniquity of my sin.
Selah
6 For this cause everyone who is godly shall pray to You
In a time when You may be found;
Surely in a flood of great waters
They shall not come near him.
7 You are my hiding place;
You shall preserve me from trouble;
You shall surround me with songs of deliverance.
Selah
Guilt is to the conscience what pain is to the body: it tells us that something is wrong and must be made right, or things will get worse.
8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go;
I will guide you with My eye.
9 Do not be like the horse or like the mule,
Which have no understanding,
Which must be harnessed with bit and bridle,
Else they will not come near you.
10 Many sorrows shall be to the wicked;
But he who trusts in the LORD, mercy shall surround him.
11 Be glad in the LORD and rejoice, you righteous;
And shout for joy, all you upright in heart!
Like the horse, David rushed ahead impetuously, and like the mule, he was stubborn and tried to cover his sins.
The difference between a horse and a mule.
If we open the door, sin comes in as a guest but soon becomes the master.
How easy it is to be convicted about other people’s sins.
Tie David’s story back to my story and sum it up.
What sin are you holding unto that’s keeping you from God’s awesome forgiveness?
Is your sin greater than mine?
Is your sin greater than David’s?
God called David a man after God’s own heart.
If you have never accepted God’s forgiveness, let tonight be the night.
Bow your heads.
