psalm 51
ps 51
Read Psalm 51
There was a episode of America’s Funnest Home Video’s Where a preschool child was covered with chocolate.
The walls around him are covered in chocolate and his baby brother has been smothered in that same chocolate.
With the camera rolling the mother asks her son “Have you been eating Chocolate” the Child shakes his head no.
While that may seem funny even sweet it shows the true nature of Sin and the desire to hide it even when guilt is clear.
David The man after Gods own heart.
His chosen His annionted.
Sinned when he laid with Bathsheba
David tried to cover his sin first through a act of fraud and lies when that didn't work David Gods chosen Man His Chosen King had Uriah Bathshebas husband killed
Then David came to his senses after a harsh rebuking from Samuel.
David admitted his failures
is a road map to restoration showing us how we can come clean , How we can all have a clean start
Appeal to Gods Attributes
There are many times when we fail to approach someone because we fear the response.
David approached God with confidence appealing to
Gods- Love-kindness
Gods tender mercy
Gods Cleansing Power
2. Admit your Sin
After a season of trying to cover up his sin, David comes completely clean with God.
Notice the details of his confession
The weight of Sin (vs 3 its all ways before him)
The size of the Sin, He sinned against Uriah against Bathsheba but ultimately against God.
The Source of the Sin, We are born sinners
Rom
The truth about sin , Gods truth and wisdom is the standard His truth must be the foundation
of our heart and soul
3. Ask for Restoration
Davids Heart and life was a complete mess.
He truly needed a complete overhaul of his life and soul one that only God could deliver.
Just like a stained glass window are broken pieces of glass made into something beautiful.
God takes our mess and creates a masterpiece.
Here are a few elements of Restoration the David requested
*forgiveness (7)
*rejoicing (8)
*a clean heart (10)
*steadfast spirit
renewed intamacy
*Joy of salvation
*willing spirit
4. Put your new freedom to Action
Why would we request a fresh move of God in our life only to return to our old habits?
A Changed life means changed actions
David now desires to
Point others toward God (vs 13) Changed lives want to change lives
Praise God for the victory
Provide proper sacrifices.
( the best offering one can bring before God is ourselves)
Conclusion
Since the preschooler made the chocolate covered walls carped baby brother.
There was no way he would be able to get it all cleaned up on his own.
The only solution to recovering from the mess was to get outside help.
In the same way our Sin cannot be addressed by our own efforts to hide them to cover them up.
Only through the work of God can we ever be made whole.
Go ahead and admit that you been hiding your chocolate.
Let God take care of the clean up in your life.
