Be Sure Your Sin Will Find You Out

This document provides advice about confessing sins to God. It uses the analogy of a dog digging holes in the backyard to represent humans digging deeper holes by lying and trying to cover up their sins from God. It encourages stopping excuses and coming clean by confessing sins to God, as 1 John 1:9 promises forgiveness and cleansing for those who confess. It notes that both Moses and King David tried to hide their sins in the Bible but their sins still found them out. The conclusion is to confess sins to God before they are exposed.

Goldie, have you been


digging in the backyard?

BE SURE YOUR SIN


WILL FIND YOU OUT
Numbers 32:23

If Goldie could speak english, she might say, “what backyard?” or “nope, Excuses, diversions,
and cover ups...
been standing here the whole time..” or “no way, whatever gave you that
idea?” “Did you say we’re going for a walk?” or “you look pretty today.” :)
Goldie obviously can’t talk, but she does KNOW it’s wrong to dig holes.
We dig holes too as human beings with our Master, God. He tells us the
rules and we (try) to sneak away and break them. Then we dig deeper
holes by lying to try to cover it up. We think we’re clever and getting away
with something, but ultimately, the sin is written all over our faces from
God’s perspective. If you are trying to “hide” some sin in your life I encour-
age you today to STOP hiding, to STOP running from God and simply con- In case anyone feels alone in
fess that sin to Him. Get it out in the open. The Bible says in 1 Jn.1:9 “If we this, here are a couple of other
very “famous” people in the Bi-
confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse ble who have tried to “hide”
us from all unrighteousness.” Confession will lead to cleansing and cleansing their sin from God. MOSES
will lead to a right standing with God once again. There’s so much more when he killed the Egyptian and
we could say about this subject, suffice it to say, we should all cease to try buried him in the sand (Exodus
to hide anything from God, He knows everything already, and He only 2:14) & King David when he
tried to cover up his adultery
wants the best for us; He wants us to be clean, He wants us to be free.....
with murder
(2 Samuel 12:9)
I SAY, ‘LET’S CONFESS OUR SIN BEFORE IT CONFESSES US” :O P

Peace In, Big D:)
