Unconfessed Sin


We all have sinned; some of us harbor unconfessed sin though which interferes with the way we think of, and commune with God. This is not good since we will likely stop listening and praying to God when we try to hide our sins from Him. We tend to avoid Him so we don’t have to deal with that “secret” sin. Remember how Adam tried to hide his sin in the Garden of Eden? We can, thanks to our wonderful, Lord Jesus, re-open our wonderful channels to God through our confession and repentance. We don’t ever want to be separated from Him. We can always trust God to forgive us of our sins because He said He would when we ask Him to. Once we have confessed our sin to Him we will be forgiven and we can again rely on His leading us in our loving, grateful service to Him. By our confession we rededicate our lives to Him.

Is there some unconfessed sin in your life? What is separating you from God? This is your time for re-dedication, take the time to pray and confess any hidden sin to God. (Psalm 32:1-4) Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, / whose sin is covered. / Blessed be the man to whom the Lord does not impute iniquity, / and in whose spirit there is no deceit. God has promised to forgive us of all our sins. From time to time we may slip away from God. Now is the time to commit your heart to obedience to God’s Word. Take the time to share your re-commitment with another Christian who will pray with you. Fellow Christians are our great encouragers and God wants us to be joined together with them.

The apostle Paul in his epistle to the Romans wrote; Likewise you also, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord. Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts (Romans 6:11, 12).

Walk Of Faith

I wonder, do you think we miss God’s purpose for our lives because we are waiting to learn more of what God has planned for us? Truth is; God isn’t required to lay it all out for us. All He must do if He has a plan for our lives is to show us how and then enable us to do it. It seems when we don’t know all the particulars, life is too perplexing. We think, “ but I need to know just what God wants me to do.” Abram (later known as Abraham) probably had thoughts just like this. God asked Abram to go somewhere he wasn’t familiar with and he most likely thought of asking God, Lord, must I go somewhere I don’t know, can’t I just stay here in Haran? However, God’s plan for Abram was far greater than anything Abram could ever imagine. Our personal feelings, vision, and human reasoning will always get in the way of our walk of faith . God teaches us to have faith in Him by placing us in positions where our feelings, vision, and common knowledge don’t work for us. Haven’t you ex...

Over the past few years I have been inspired by the Holy Spirit to write what He has given me; many times I was awakened in the middle of the night to write them down. I hope you will take look at these brief messages which can be found in the "sidebar" of this blog under the heading of "BLOG ARCHIVE." There may be something in these that personally speaks to you.

In Heaven

We will experience a sense of perfect joy There will also be perfect peace and fulfillment because of the divine presence of God. Our worship of the Father will be without distraction. Forever and ever we will concentrate our worship only on Him; our loving, caring God who is, and was, and forever will be our Creator and Sustainer. Never will we experience exhaustion as we serve and interact with Him on a very personal level. “And His servants shall serve Him” (Revelation 22:3). In Revelation it is revealed we will govern with Christ and rule over all that is brought under His dominion. “The kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ, and He shall rule forever and ever!” (Revelation 11:15). And it is written; “And they [his servants] shall reign forever and ever” (Revelation 22:5). Ours will be a perfect fellowship like that of the Father and the Son. “That they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they may also be ...
