The Joy of Forgiveness

Share Button

In each of our lives sin can steal the joy God has intended from a right relationship with Him. It is God’s desire that our relationship with him be free from sin. However in all of our lives we fall prey to temptation.

King David of Israel fell prey to temptation in his adultery with Bathsheba. The fallout from this sin led David to think he had to cover up his sin, which resulted in even more damage between his relationship with the Lord.

Here in Psalm 32 David testified that being silent about sin only brings sorrow, but confessing sin to the Lord means having a life of true joy. Here in this message we see four incentives we have in confessing our sin to the Lord. When we allow God to instruct us and become honest with our sin with Him we are delivered from sorrow into joy.
