let me recap really quick, i remember now how i would lay there in my bed frustrated, praying for hours, trying to religiously say the eaxct word, "God I am sorry..." oh no i didnt mean that, again then i would lay there and repeat the whole thing over again until my sick mind was satisfied witht at confession and i moved to the next one, "In Jesus name..." oh no i didnt mean it, oh no i said it thinking something else, i didnt feel sorry, i didnt mean "forgive me", confession of sins became a horror that would control my life....now I wanna ask was that God? What I was doing was livivng in the condemnation, trying to offer up little sacrafices to God for my sins, while ignoring the fact that the final sacrafice was given.
what is the confession of sins and why is it needed? Is it when we confess the sin is that when we are forgiven? King David confessed to the Lord and asked Him of the forgivness for the evelness in his heart, guys what is the confession? is there a formula?
No.
we come to God, usually already condemned, and then the theater starts. First we muts relize that confession is sheddin light on the sin, it is bringing to light what is in darkness, what does God say about vein repetitions
Mat 6:7 And in praying use not vain repetitions, as the Gentiles do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
maaan, then when we are talking to our God, lets talk to Him as if He was right here (because He is, within us!), talk to Him like to a Father because He is a Father that sees us perfect thru the Blood of Christ!
dont let the feelings get in the way! oh i didnt do it right, oh didnt mean it, so on and so forth, what do ur feeling shave to do with anything?
u know u ve done wrong? ok
u came to God and shed light on it and it is no longer in darknes but before the Lord in the open? ok
u know God is smarter that all of us and the Word says
Mat 6:8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.
when u come to Him, He already knows....keep this in mind next time we are babbling thinking He dosnt know
ok then comes the repentance part....so many times it feels like we must confess and whooo.....done. Wrong, lol, repentance is saying Yes Lord, you are right, what i did was wrong, please forgive me and then u dont do it anymore. I remember when i used to struggle with porn a lot, as soon as the websites came up i knew that i ll be conffesing it as soon as the sin is over, that was wrong, we must repent, no longer live like the world, we must live like Jews in the Spirit, im serious Jews lived out in the flesh what we must live out in the Spirit, read Exodus 12, plz plz plz read the post about the Kingodm of God is HERE, let us repent (myself included) and not continue in the ways of this world, the Egypt which like Jews we must leave.
Mat 11:28 Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Mat 11:29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
Mat 11:30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."
I believe Jesus is not talking to those who have been working in the field all day, but to those who has been laboring in religion all day, confessing all day, doing to please God all day the dead works of religion, He says come to me, GO TO HIM, just turn of the light and weep for Him, tell Him what bothers u, what u need help with, what u did wrong, HE IS OUR GOD DANG IT NOT A GUARD IN A PRISON!!!!!!!!
Condemnation will depress u, make u feel guilty, offer no solution, just confess and that will cause everything to be better, no option of repentance, the change isnt even mention just the act, do it do it do it, u feel depressed, bad
Conviction, is like a father pickin up a kid who just learned how to walk who came up to a table and knocked all the glasses of the table, He picks u up, He will show u what u did wrong, and wave hi finger or say dont do that, and then give u a kiss on the forehead (God just gave me this picture)
then u dont sin (dont get me wrong we all NEED to fear God and know His fear) because its like oh no i will have to confess or i will feel like poop, no its so the Father wont be dissapointed
"Its your goodness Lord that leads to repentance"
trust me guys if God would want to use fear or punishment or guilt or any of the gloomy ways, we would taste His wrath and there would be no question of who is doing it,
go to Christ, when u feel like oh no i did something, come to Him and tell Him that u feel like that, and that He would show u a way out, maybe you should bring it before Him, maybe u should just move on, repent.
I remember i used to get condemned over stupid things like i dunno way i put tshir on the hanger, at the time it seemed like a lie or murder..........
GO TO HIM ALL OF US FOR HE IS GOOD!!!!!!!!!
