Is It Okay To Ask God For Blessings After You’ve Sinned? - Psalm 25 Pt.3 Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on May 25, 2025

What should happen to your joy when you sin? Should you be happy because of forgiveness? Or broken with tears of repentance? Is it appropriate to ask for gifts and blessing from God right after you have sinned against him? And if not, how long should you wait?
