Unconfessed  blocks a person relationship with God.

How  (Unconfessed Sins) HINDERS Our Relationship with God

When we fail to Be True to Yourself by holding onto unconfessed sin, it creates a severe breakdown in our fellowship with God:

It Breaks Fellowship: While salvation is permanent, unconfessed sin immediately breaks the intimacy and closeness of your relationship with God. It creates a “wall of guilt and shame” between you and Him, making you defensive and resistant to His presence.

It Stops Prayer: The Psalmist said, “If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me.” Hiding sin makes your prayers feel ineffective and unanswered, leading to spiritual frustration and the feeling that God is distant.

It Undermines Integrity: By choosing secrecy over honesty, you are rejecting the very foundation of Being True to Yourself. This lie poisons your own conscience and makes you spiritually weak, hindering your ability to act with confidence or moral clarity in God’s service.

How Key 2 (Confession and Cleansing) HELPS Our Relationship with God

When you actively choose to Overcome Unconfessed Sins by being truly honest, the benefits to your relationship with God are immediate and profound:

It Restores Fellowship and Peace: Confession is the immediate path to restoration. As soon as you Be True to Yourself and confess your sin to God, He keeps His promise:
1 John 1:9: “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.”
This act tears down the wall of guilt and restores the peace of a clean conscience.

It Unlocks Complete Cleansing: Confession ensures you receive God’s purification, not just His pardon. You are not only forgiven, but cleansed from all unrighteousness, allowing you to serve God with a pure heart and renewed strength.

It Deepens Trust: By choosing to be transparent and receiving forgiveness, you demonstrate a profound trust in God’s goodness and mercy, which is the cornerstone of a deeper, more intimate relationship with Him.

These are points that help us with understanding confessing sins and the hindrance of unconfessed sins in our lives. Be stronger in your relationship with God by confessing your sins before him.
