The Power Of Confession Of Sin

'When a man or woman shall commit any sin that men commit, to do a trespass against the Lord, and that person be guilty; then they shall confess their sin which they have done'.
Why should we confess our sins? Why can't we deny and continue to live in sin?
The wages of sin is death. If we continue in sin, we are not of God. Jesus Christ came to the World to destroy the power and works of sin in our lives.
Confession of sin was one of the steps to reconciliation and redemption in the old testament. The grace of Christ through faith re-emphasized the need to confess and forsake our sins.
When you take steps to confess your sins, you immediately receive power over guilt. You develop instant peace and joy never known before. Your relationship with others improve and suddenly you begin to see yourself in a new way.
Denial of sin keep us in bondage and keep burden of sin unreleased.
No matter what sin you must have commited, take step immediately to confess and forsake it. This is a vital step to a cordial relationship with God and man.

P.S.: Text: Numbers 5: 1-8
