Finding Mercy - Daily Devotional

The one who hides their sins does not move past their sin, instead, they remain stuck in their sins. We are not called to remain in our sins, instead, we are called to confess our sins. We are not able to prosper when there is sin concealed in our life. In the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, the definition of the word prosper is “to become strong and flourishing”. So, to be strong and flourishing, we must confess and renounce all sins in our life. The word renounce means to forsake, give up, or eschew [to abstain or keep away from]. 



When we confess to God our sins and abstain from them, then we receive God’s mercy. God’s mercy is when we do not receive what we deserve for our sins. Forgiveness. God extends His grace to us when we ask for forgiveness by confessing our sins and turning away from them. God’s mercy and grace is a beautiful gift! Only through Christ can we shift from not prospering spiritually to becoming strong and flourishing.
