“Therefore, confess your sins to one another [your false steps, your offenses], and pray for one another, that you may be healed and restored. The heartfelt and persistent prayer of a righteous man (believer) is able to accomplish much [when put into action and made effective by God—it is dynamic and can have tremendous power].”
‭‭James‬ ‭5‬:‭16‬ ‭AMP‬‬

It is another beautiful day that the LORD God has made to be alive. Have you said thank you to the giver of life this morning? Come on, right now appreciate God for the gift of life.

Sickness and diseases has ravaged individuals and families so much that even believers are not left out of it. As believers, some prayed and their healing came while some also prayed but nothing changed.

Why is there no healing even when children of God prayed in faith? Perhaps, it is because of our text today, because we have not confessed our sins not to God this time but to one another.

You are yet to confess your faults to your brother or sister, to your neighbor, to your staffs, to your husband or wife, to your mum or dad, that boy or girl you hurt, or even to your pastor.

It is funny sometimes, when you do things that hurt people and you go to God and confess your sins which is of course good, but how about the person you have offended or wronged. Just because the person you wronged did not know you did something to hurt or wrong them does not mean you should not make a confession to him or her.

Stop being hypocrites, pretending as though nothing happened moving on with your life. Confess your sins, the Bible says to one another.

“He who conceals his transgressions will not prosper, But whoever confesses and turns away from his sins will find compassion and mercy.”
‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭28‬:‭13‬ ‭AMP‬‬

It might look as though you are prospering at the moment but every seed will eventually grow and come back to you to eat of it’s fruit, good or evil.

Today, even as we round off the year, why not reach out to that person you know you have offended, hurt, accused wrongly or spoken ill about and confess your sins.

Your Father in heaven might have forgiven you truly, but still confess your faults to that person you wronged, this is an instruction from God, obey and set yourself free.

PRAYER

Say; Heavenly Father, I thank you for your word to me this morning and I ask and receive the help of the Holy Spirit to confess my faults whenever I wrong someone that my prayers may be acceptable in your presence in Jesus name. Amen.
