Confess your sins and repent of them as soon as the Holy Spirit convicts you

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 3 minutes
Greetings to you, dear friends! I thank God for you and I believe that this day will bring to you great blessings as you ponder upon the word God is sending us today. Today I want to share with you a word about the wisdom of repentance.
«For there is nothing hidden which will not be revealed, nor has anything been kept secret but that it should come to light» (Mark, 4:22).
Here we see a very important truth spoken by Jesus. According to this Scripture everything hidden will be revealed. If we accept this truth then we will want to live righteously before God and men. Our every wrongdoing and ungodly deed sooner or later will be brought out in the light, and all our secret works sooner or later will come into the open; all our unconfessed, unrecognized and secret sins sooner or later will become obvious for everybody. Therefore, if we believe this to be true, then the wisest thing we can do is to confess and to repent of any sins as soon as God brings a conviction of sin. Bible says that the Holy Spirit when He comes will convict us of all our sins. Praise God for the fact that the Holy Spirit convicts us of our sins. But even though the Holy Spirit brings the conviction many people try to hide their sins. Dear friends, God wants us to pay attention to what He is saying. Whenever the Holy Spirit convicts us it is the best time for our repentance. To repent means to reveal our sins and to deal with them, to forsake them, to bring them out in the open in order to receive grace and mercy from the Lord.
«He who covers his sins will not prosper, but whoever confesses and forsakes them will have mercy» (Proverbs, 28:13).
The Bible teaches us that if we hide our sins and trespasses we won’t have success. But if we realize that there are some wrong things in our lives and openly confess them and forsake them then God will give us His mercy and His grace. Dear friends, let’s live a righteous life before God; let’s take the dealings of the Holy Spirit seriously and not hide our sins because sooner or later they will be revealed anyway. I will continue to talk about this tomorrow. Today the word of God for you is as follows: confess your sins and repent of them as soon as the Holy Spirit convicts you. Until tomorrow! Be blessed!

  • On what does your destiny depend?

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 3 minutes
    We mostly think that our destiny is determined by other people or how they act toward us. Or we think that destiny depends on the circumstances that surround us or things that happen around us. But it is not true, and God does not think that way! God knows that the circumstances in your life won’t define your life. What people do or do not do to you cannot determine your life. Your destiny is defined by where your heart is. Thus, God tells us that we have to guard our hearts with all diligence.

  • Where there is life there is hope

    Hope is one of the greatest words of the Christian faith. It is one word the unsaved man cannot use, because there is no hope for the unsaved according to the Bible (Ep.2: 11-13). If you are reading this word today and you have not accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, your hope begins with that step. If you want to take that step but you don’t really understand what that means and how to do it, please read our booklet: The Jesus you never knew or visit our page: becoming a friend of God.

  • You won’t have a ministry if you don’t start using what you have now

    The topic of our devotion today is “Your gift will make room for you”.We have been talking about how all big things start small, whether it is a known person, great ministry, great accomplishments or great influence. It all starts when a person does what he can do and does it with all his might as unto the Lord with faith and consistency. When one has such attitude towards life he will have his or her reward from the Lord. Such a person will be blessed and exalted by God. His or her gift will make room for him or her in God’s overall picture and the Body of Christ.Person’s gift will make room for him and will bring him before great men, – this is on of the Bible principles; the Bible teaches about it and also it can be seen in the lives of the people in the Bible.

  • The seed contains tremendous potential

    Our attitude towards God’s Word is very important. God sends His Word into our lives so that His Word would bring to us that which we need. In order for the seed of God’s Word to grow in our hearts, the condition of our hearts is particularly important. «For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, and do not return there, but water the earth, and make it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower and bread to the eater, so shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; it shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and it shall prosper in the thing which I sent it.» (Isaiah 55:10-11).

  • God gives to everyone according to his or her ability

    We all want more. We want our churches to have more people, but God – according to your ability – will give you what you can handle. God will be able to entrust you His blessings according to the level of your responsibility. For example, you are in a predicament and you think, „Why do I have to live through this?” But God knows that you can handle it. We often are not aware of how responsible or irresponsible we are, but God is. God knows the burden you are able to carry. You may think and say to yourself, «No, I am not able to bear this! I am not capable!» Until you actually go through it, you won’t be able to imagine what you are capable of.
