Have mercy on me, O God, because of your unfailing love. Because of your great compassion, blot out the stain of my sins. Wash me clean from my guilt. Purify me from my sin. Psalm 51:1–2, NLT
Today’s Word: Psalm 51 is the psalm in which David admits and repents of sins that he had covered up for over a year. He not only took off the mask of pretending he had done right, but under that mask was a mask of shame. “I can’t believe I did this. What is wrong with me? I’ll never become what I could have been.” The mask of shame will keep you from your destiny. Voices will constantly whisper, “You should feel ashamed and unworthy of being forgiven. Look what you did. You can’t take that mask off. You’re showing God that you’re sorry. You’re paying Him back for your sins.” No, the price has already been paid by Jesus. You can’t pay God back, and you don’t have to live guilty and condemned. You may have issues that you’re not proud of, that you’ve covered up. It’s time to take off the mask of shame. No matter what you’ve done, God has mercy for you. He didn’t disqualify you. Acknowledge what it is and ask God to forgive you and cleanse the guilt away.
Prayer For Today: “Father, thank You for Your unfailing love and great compassion that blots out the stain of my sins. Thank You that I can come to You for forgiveness and mercy and for truth in my heart. I ask for a clean heart and to walk in the joy of my salvation. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
