The consequences of unconfessed sin ? If I had not confessed the sin in my heart, my Lord would not have listened. But God did listen! He paid attention to my prayer. Psalm 66:18-19 NLT It is bad to be in trouble with your friends, family, co-workers, etc. It is a whole lot worse to be in trouble with God. What King David shares in the above passage is that if we are harboring sinful attitudes in our hearts or willfully indulging in sinful activities, we should not expect God to respond to our prayers. This is not because God doesn't love us. God loves us more then we will ever understand or comprehend. It's not because God doesn't want to help us. God would love to be there for you. God would love to deliver you from what is bothering you. It is simply that a holy God cannot shrug off sin or look the other way. Intimacy with God requires honesty, humility, purity. For us to attempt to approach God without first addressing the ways in which we have knowingly offended and wronged him is an exercise in futility. Sin must be acknowledged and dealt with. Once we do that, we again enjoy sweet fellowship with God. Clean and forgiven, we can be sure he hears our pleas for help. May the Lord bless you and keep you |
