Your Sins WILL Find You Out

"But if you fail to do this, you will be sinning against the LORD; and you may be sure that your sin will find you out.” Numbers 32:23

In the recent Hollywood movie ‘Chappaquiddick’ about the July 18, 1969 bridge  accident and death involving the late Senator Ted Kennedy and campaign worker Mary Jo Kopechne, much cover up went on to protect Mr. Kennedy who was a rising political figure. One line in the movie said to come clean and give ‘their’ version of the truth. Don’t want to spoil it but wanted to use this movie about  not being able to be totally truthful for my devotion today. No matter what you do wrong it is always best to fess up ASAP and to tell the whole truth. Don’t run and hide as it never works in the end. 

Sin is like a cancer. It eats into you and it is worse when you lie or run away to try to hide what you did. God knows what you did. God forgives sin. Remember Jesus died a horrible death on the cross in order to save us from our sins. This does not give you license to sin anyway but God offers grace and forgiveness. 

The enemy loves to get you tempted to do wrong and it is necessary to recognize this and run far and fast. There is no one that has not sinned. Some sin is worse and has horrendous consequences and others are what people call little. All sin is wrong. Where are you today? Is something grinding on your conscience you need to confess. Be sure the truth will set you free.(John 8).

PRAYER: When I do wrong and displease you I am convicted of it instantly. Satan would have me lie and sneak and not be truthful but your way is total cleansing and coming clean from the start. I choose the right path. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
