Confess

“David said to Avyatar, “I knew it! That day, when Do’eg the Edomi was there, I knew he would tell Sha’ul. I caused the death of every person in your father’s family. “
1 Samuel 22:22 CJB

We see here David realizes and acknowledges his responsibility for when he lied to Ahimelech in the previous chapter, people died! Understand we all blow it from time to time. People might not die, but do get hurt! Do we take responsibility?

“He who conceals his sins will not succeed; he who confesses and abandons them will gain mercy.”
Proverbs 28:13 CJB

Sin really does kill, emotionally, relationships and occasionally physically! What do we do? Confessing and admitting brings liberation from the bondage of sin!

“When I acknowledged my sin to you, when I stopped concealing my guilt, and said, “I will confess my offenses to Adonai”; then you, you forgave the guilt of my sin.”
Psalm 32:5 CJB also 1 John 1:9

Be careful of getting caught up in trying to hide or cover sin! Why? Because it never works out! Instead confess, repent and watch God forgive and forget, so you can be liberated and move on!
Have a blessed day in Yeshua!
