Ps 32:1-7; 51:1-17

FOUNDATIONAL TRUTH:
Our pride is the environment that allows OUR SIN TO GROW IN SECRET.

MAIN THOUGHT:
Confession is for OUR SAKE, not GOD'S SAKE.

WHAT CONFESSION DOES (Ps 32)
1) Matches up the INSIDE with the OUTSIDE (v1-5)

2) Replaces the WEIGHT OF OPPOSING GOD with the FREEDOM OF BEING SUPPORTED BY GOD. (v3-7)

WHAT CONFESSION IS (Ps 51)
1) ACKNOWLEDGING sin (v1-6)

2) Desiring for CHANGE (v7-12)

3) Then living FOR GOD (v13-17)

FINAL QUESTION:
Is your pride preventing you from experiencing the BLESSINGS OF CONFESSION?
