Friday - September 8th

I John 1:9 provides a powerful promise: "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."

When we come to God with a contrite heart, confessing our sins, His response is profound:

• Instant Forgiveness: The moment we confess, God's forgiveness is immediate. There's no delay, no hesitation—He welcomes us with open arms.
• Free Forgiveness: God's forgiveness is a gift, freely given. We can never earn it through our good deeds or efforts; it demonstrates His boundless grace.
• Complete Forgiveness: He doesn't partially forgive. God's forgiveness covers all our sins, leaving no trace of guilt or condemnation.
• Permanent Forgiveness: Once forgiven, God doesn't hold our past against us. He forgives and forgets, offering us a fresh start.

Today, take comfort in knowing that when you confess your sins to God, He responds with unfailing love and forgiveness.
