Series: The Gospel According to the Psalms
Title: Confession, Repentance, and Forgiveness
Psalm 32:1–11
Main teaching:

The ones who are blessed are the ones who are forgiven.

Confession, Repentance, and Forgiveness:
1. The Priority of it.
2. The Promise of it.
3. The Practice of it.
1. The Priority of it.
– Psalm 32:1–4

We all have a need to be forgiven.

The weight of guilt affects us:
o Emotionally.
o Physically.
o Spiritually.

What forgiveness of transgression means:
o Sin is covered.
o Iniquity is not counted.
o Deceit is removed.
2. The Promise of it.
– Psalm 32:6–7

You can receive God’s forgiveness only in Jesus Christ.

1 John 1:9
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

· The Lord has justified and redeemed his people.
3. The Practice of it.
– Psalm 32:5, 8–11

- Agree with God.

- Refuse to excuse.

- Stay in love.
