The basin of water represents our cleansing provided by the shed blood of Jesus. In our prayer time, we move from praising God for His salvation gift to our confession of sin and receiving His forgiveness.
How can a Christ follower stay clean while living in a dirty world? You stay clean by consecrating your life before the Lord daily. That is to not only be conscious of your sin, but to specifically confess your sin.
“If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.” 1 John 1:8-9 (NIV)
Are you living by instant obedience and immediate confession of sin? Don’t allow sin to linger.
Pursuing God,
Stephen Trammell
Pastor of Leadership and Pastoral Care

WOO! I love this stuff! I had been struggling with my prayer life before this series on Wednesday nights. Realizing that there is a process in coming into intimacy with God has completely changed everything. I can’t wait for the sermon tonight. It’s going to be awesome!
