Confess, Repent, Forgiveness

S :

Matthew 4:17 NASB
From that time Jesus began to preach and say, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."

O :

This was Jesus first preaching.
From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

A :

The message that Jesus preach tells me that I must repent for my sins and ask for forgiveness.
It leads the sinner like me to flee from the wrath to come, to look for relief only from above, and eagerly to fall in with the provided remedy.

What is repentance ?

1) Aware the sin in your life
2) Deep sense of remorse and feel like you are lost. No hope for me
3) Confessions and realizing
4) willingness to turn back to God and walk with God.
5) A heart to transform, through Jesus.
He take our sins away and able us to worship God.

Repentance means to turn from sin with a heartfelt desire to change and not do it again. 

1) If I've sinned against God I must confess, ask for forgiveness and repent.
2) know that I've been forgiven and must never dwell in the past, move on.
3) I must never do it again, if the sins starts to kicks in, ask the Holy Spirit for help.
4) I must never take God's grace/forgiveness for granted.
5) Pray, Pray, Pray.

Repent
Believe
Come after Him

Acts 19:4-6 NASB
Paul said, "John baptized with the baptism of repentance, telling the people to believe in Him who was coming after him, that is, in Jesus." When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and they began speaking with tongues and prophesying.

P :

Dear heavenly Father,
I pray that You will help me with my temptation and sins.
Stop them from coming.
Help me when temptation and sins starts to kick in.
Father, I repent for what I've sin against You.
Forgive my sins.
I am willing but please help my unwillingness.
I really need You in the season.
Thank You Jesus for what You've done on the cross.
In the name of Jesus,
AMEN !
