    We have studied the "Veneer of Excuses." Not let us consider that some of God's best students were experts at making the offering of excuses. We must overcome the weakness of excuses. We need to be honest, admit, confess and repent. Being good at excuses will hinder real growth.

    Prayer matters because it helps us to rely on God’s mercy. Prayer matters because it helps us to confess sin and ask for mercy. Prayer matters because it helps us to see God for who He is. God. And prayer matters because we honor God when we pray.

    Prayer mattered to Daniel. We’re going to take a look at some reasons why this morning and allow Daniel to show us why prayer was such an important part of his life.

    We confess our sins with true repentance and determination not to sin again, and we are forgiven. Freely. That is God’s self-definition. He needs nothing from us, no. His love for us is constantly being thrown back in His Holy Face by us sinners, but He keeps summoning us to be loved.

     | 4,555 views

    When we disobey God by sinning, let’s not shift the blame or justify our actions with the faulty “the devil made me do it” theology. Instead, let’s take full responsibility for our actions, confess our sins to a gracious and forgiving Father, and pursue r
