Confession- Psalm 51:1-12
Rev. Stephanie Smith
Stephanie's Confession
Let go of guilt, make room for grace
Confession is cleaning out the heart
Psalm 51
-Written by David after he is called out by the prophet Nathan
-He didn't make an excuse, he confessed
David is asking for a deep clean, not a light rinse
-Sin doesn't sit at the surface level
-Transgression = Rebellion, Iniquity = Twistedness, Sin = Missing the Mark
Confession isn't about telling God, it's about transforming us
-It's like breathing again after holding your breath
How to practice confession:
1. Personal Prayer
2. Worship with Intention
3. Spiritual Friendships
It's not about punishment, it's about restoration
