Welcome to episode 194 of Grasp the Bible. In this episode, we continue our study in the Book of Psalms, covering chapter 32, a Psalm of Thanksgiving. Today, we will cover: - The connection between sin and shame. - The lies we tell ourselves, others, and God. - The forgiveness of God. Key takeaways: We thank God for His Forgiveness! · His Forgiveness Breaks the Shackles of Sin and Shame on my Spirit · His Forgiveness is Accessible · His Forgiveness Changes my view of things · His forgiveness includes provisions and a guidebook for dummies · His Forgiveness Covered what was previously covered when I finally uncovered Quotable: · “He is available to us! He is Easily Found! · “I am not a grace Graduate!!” · “Admit it we are all still a bit of a mess; that's why we need God's grace today as much as we needed it the first day we believed.” Application: And because I know I’ve been forgiven it changes my view of things! · Instead of running from him …. I pray to him. · Instead of lying about my sin…. I tell the truth about my sin. · Instead of hiding from him …. He is my hiding place. · Instead of cowering from him …. He is my protector. · Instead of feeling the shame of sin ….. I am surrounded by shouts of deliverance.
