In order to pray with confidence and
you need to know who you are praying to.
Paul David Tripp
Journey To The Cross; A 40-Day Lenten Devotional
What are the characteristics of your God? Are there things He can’t do? Is He mortal like you? Is He loving and forgiving?
When you confess your sins to Him are you do so out of fear and dread of being tarred and feathered?
The Bible verse referenced the Day 28 devotion by Tripp explains who you are confessing to:
14 Since then we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. 15 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
Hebrews 4:14 -16
Just a little something to meditate on to give you the confidence to pray and confess your sins before God and humbly asking for His forgiveness.
