How Sin Is Hindering Your Prosperity by PROPHETmichael: 5:44am On Jun 10, 2018
"HE THAT COVERETH HIS SINS SHALL NOT PROSPER: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy" (Proverbs 28:13)!

Many Christians cannot prosper in life because they absolutely refuse to confess and forsake their sins.

Yes, they will confess their sins but rarely will they also forsake them.

Confessing your sins to God is not enough to obtain His mercy; you also need to forsake your sins.

This means that what you say with your words must be undergirded by what you do with your actions.

Elsewise, your continuous sinful behavior will cancel out the efficacy of your confession of sin.

But there is a widespread belief that confessing your sins is enough to obtain mercy.

That is a baldfaced lie!

You must not only renounce your sin; you must also resist it.

When once the Lord God sees your words and deeds become congruent to the tone of holiness, then, and only then, will He be obliged to extend to you His mercy.

And it is not until a full year after your last sin will God deem you to have ceased sinning.

Please stop sharing this.
You're disqualifying many baby Christians from receiving mercy from God.

A person gets born again just today or 2 weeks ago.
He doesn't know much about who he is in Christ, what he has in Christ and what he can do in Christ.
Such a person will struggle with acts of sin for sometime. Are you telling me God won't have mercy on such person because he or she hasn't forsook his or her acts of sin ?

We are products of mercy. God will always be merciful to us.

Hebrews 8:12
For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.

Once anyone confesses his sins and forsake them (chooses not to sin anymore) and genuinely accepts Christ as His saviour, He becomes a child of Grace.
Grace automatically makes Him pure and justified before God. His spirit (his true self) is saved and noe has the Holyspirit in Him.

Unfortunately his soul(mind) has been corrupted by years of sinful living. This is where the real work is.
This is where he has to deliberately choose to overcome sin.
As difficult as this sounds, the indwelling of the Holyspirit empowers him to be able to overcome whatever he chooses to overcome.
This is a called RENEWING OF THE MIND.

This is where the journey of our Walk of Faith is. This is where believers struggle with.
This is where the heart and intention is tested. The reason for your giving your life to Christ is tested here.
Did you give your life to Christ genuinely?
Did you do it to impress someone else? Your parents perhaps?

The only true and genuine reason for giving our life to Christ is for Salvation. To be saved from sin, to understand God and to practise righteousness. Not because of prosperity or healing or breakthroughs. All these will be added freely once we seek God for His sake and not personal and selfish gains.

So I am guessing all the born again Christians are swimming in prosperity.

Stupid senseless thread.
