Today's Worship Service @ church

Psalms 32 Pastor Grant Prudy

Why live with the burden of sin and be miserable when you can have GOD's forgiveness and have peace and true happiness(JOY).
Forgiveness brings true happiness. Only when we ask GOD to forgive our sins will he give us real happiness and relief from guilt.

In the words of our Pastor "Are we that silly of people where we want to live life miserable so we can keep that sin, then confess to our Lord and live a life of peace and joy with him".

When GOD forgives us, he clears the record of our wrongs and takes away our sins. To experience GOD's forgiveness, however, we must confess our sins. And make a commitment to change our behavior.

GOD has shown us that he is willing to forgive because his judgement on sin was satisfied by Christ's death on the cross. As you read Psalms 32, note the pattern followed in responding to GOD:
1-they recognized their sin.
2-they realized that sin was rebellion against GOD himself.
3-they admitted their sins to GOD - they confessed.
4-they trusted in GOD's willingness to forgive.
5-they accepted his forgiveness.
6-they lived with true happiness, joy, peace that only GOD can give when he forgives you and lifts the burden of sins away.

I was totally convicted this morning and ask the LORD to forgive me and I must say I have more joy and peace in my life.  Thank you LORD!!

When people think of sin they think of sin such as, in Psalms 32 David was dealing with his sin of adultery and murder. But sin can be unforgiveness, bitterness, jealousy, gossip, etc....

GOD longs to guide us with love and wisdom rather than punishment. He offers to guide us along the best pathway for our lives. Accept the advice written in GOD's Word and don't let stubbornness get in the way of you confessing and getting the forgiveness from our LORD and have true happiness, joy, peace.
And have real fellowship with GOD.

In His Name
GOD bless you and yours....
