Don't Cover Your Sins

“If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.”
1 John 1:8.

Today I will like to encourage you based on the Word of God not to keep sin secret or try to cover your sin. If you are trying to cover your sins, it means you don't know God and you are not yet perfect in His love for you.

The Bible says, “He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy.” Proverbs 28:13.

Stop the pretense and come to God sincerely just the way you are. You don't need to try to make yourself perfect before you come. Just come as you are. That was what the prodigal son did in Luke 15:18 where he said, “I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee,” As he came to his father with a repentant heart, the Bible says, “… But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him.” Before he confessed his sins, his father already embraced him and began to kiss him, which is a show of intimacy. As he confessed his sins, his father began instructing the servants, “… Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet:”     Luke 15:22.

The best robe is the father's robe, yet the father asked that his robe should be put on this prodigal son who did not deserve to be a son, rather a servant. He never asked for it but the father clothed him with favour, he put a ring in his hand and shoes on his feet. That is what your heavenly Father is ready to do for you today if only you can come to him with a sincere heart. God will never turn you away when you come to Him with a repentant heart. His arms are always open to receive all that will come to Him today in faith.

Instruction.
Confess all secrets faults before God and do not hide anything from Him.
