“Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working.” – James 5:16
One of the hardest things for us to do sometimes is confess. Confess when we sin, when we’ve made a mistake, etc. The Bible tells us to confess our sins to one another and pray. We know that no temptation can seize us and we know that no sin can overcome us because of what Jesus Christ did on the cross, but often times we won’t confess our sins to one another. Why do you think the Bible tells us to do that?
Have you ever confessed your sins before and if so, what happened afterwards? It’s amazing the feeling of comfort you can receive after you confess and pray, realizing that the Cross gets bigger each and every day as it reminds us just how sinful we really are and that we do indeed need a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.
Today, what can you confess?
