It's Simple

TOPIC: Confession

SCRIPTURE: "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." (I John 1:9)

OBSERVATION: Notice the word "If"
What does "If" mean?
It means in order to be forgiven and cleansed we must first confess or agree with God that our sin truly is sin and that we are turning from it.
True Confession = involves a commitment not to continue doing the wrong things

APPLICATION: As I read over this verse, for some strange reason, the first thing that came to my mind were the words from Martin Luther King Jr.'s famous speech "Free at Last"

"Free at last
Free at last
Thank God Almighty
I am free at last"

You know

Being a SLAVE to sin

is

no

fun

If you want to be free

It's Simple

Confess your sins to your Heavenly Father

It truly is that simple

So stop right now and start Confessing



PRAYER: Father God, thank you thank you thank you for forgiving and cleansing me THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
