Section 11, A Prayer of Confession 8/16/2020
Scriptures: Psalms 15:1-5
Worldwide
Outreach Teaching School
by Dr. Meiman Lai Saidi
http://www.WorldwideOTS.org
Preface: For
early Christians, the book of Psalms was their most valuable resource for
worship, serving as the first ¡§hymnbook¡¨ of the church. One of the most famous
of all the psalms is Psalm 51, David¡¦s cry of penitence after his adultery with
Bathsheba and murder of Uriah. Today¡¦s session describes king David¡¦s broken relationship
with God after he sinned with Bathsheba and had her husband killed. In today¡¦s
psalm, king David seeks to repair his broken relationship with God. He asks for
God to make him new, repairing the breach, and creating in him a new heart.
Last Week: We explored
the causes of human discouragement and the ways God
provides hope, and strength during those times.
This Week: We
will explore the ways confession unleashes God¡¦s redemptive power
in our lives.
1. PRAYER FOR FORGIVENESS:
Psalm 51:1-2, 1 Have mercy on me, O God, according to your
unfailing love; according to your great compassion blot out my transgressions. 2 Wash away
all my iniquity and
cleanse me from my sin.
Commentary: Imagining
a student who has failed a test and gone to see the teacher about his future
in prospects in this course. The Psalmist was in such a place of complete
dependence on God, and so prayed ¡§Have mercy on me¡¨ (v.1a). The good news is
that the psalmist¡¦s appeal was made to a God who was known for ¡§unfailing
love¡¨ (v.1b) and ¡§great compassion¡¨. (v.1c). Forgiveness is what the
psalmist asked for. The gift of forgiveness is expressed with three vigorous verbs: blot out (v.1d), wash
away (v.
2a) and cleanse (v.2b).
Psalms 51:1-2 (P.69
of the Faith Connection)
2.
Confession of Sin and Rightness of Divine Judgment:
Psalm 51:3, 4:
3 For I know my transgressions,
and my sin is always before me.
4 Against you, you only, have I sinned and done what is evil in your sight, so that you are proved right
when you speak and justified when you judge.
Commentary: ¡§I know¡¨ (v.3a) and ¡§before me¡¨ (v.3b) suggested personal ownership of the sin
problem, while ¡¥Against
you¡¦(v.4a) and ¡¥in your sight¡¦ (v.4) acknowledged the impact of sin on one¡¦s relationship with God. Sin affected others and God. (P.70 of the Faith
Connection)
Confession of Sinfulness: Psalms 51:5-6, 5Surely I was sinful at birth, sinful from the
time my mother conceived me. 6 Surely you desire
truth in the inner parts; you teach me wisdom in the inmost place.
Commentary: 51:5-6,
Sin is permeation throughout all the
human life; The psalmist acknowledged this truth, referencing his birth (v.5a) as an entrance into the world that would
ultimately influence his decision to sin. The psalmist was clear to own up to
his own sin, not blaming others but rather acknowledging the social realities
that shaped him and us all. The message of verse 6 reinforced this by
asserting that even in the womb (before birth), God was present with gifts of
truth and wisdom for the human situation. (P.70 of the Faith Connection)
3.
PRAYER
FOR FORGIVENESS: Psalm 51:7,9, 7 Cleanse me with hyssop, and I will be clean;
wash me, and I will be whiter than snow. 9 Hide your face from my sins and blot out all
my iniquity.
Commentary: Psalm 51:7,9 - Continuing the
themes in verses 1-2, the psalmist
used the image of the ¡§hyssop¡¨ bush (v.7a) which was
associated with a variety
of cleansing rituals (e.g. Exodus 12:22-Passover; Leviticus 14:4, 6¡Vleprosy.
Numbers 19:6, 18-corpses). The imagery of washing is repeated, but here with
reference to ¡§snow¡¨ (v.7b) and its positive
association with the color white. To be
¡§whiter than snow¡¨ was to be prepared
for the presence of God, in contrast to the
color black and darkness which were associated with lament, sickness,
and
mourning.
The final new image in this prayer for forgiveness is the hiding (or
turning) of God¡¦s face (v.9a). This was
expressing displeasure. The psalmist
asked God to graciously separate himself
from his sins. (P.70-71 of the Faith Connection)
4. PRAYER FOR RESTORATION:
Psalm 51:8,10-12, 8 Let me hear joy and
gladness; let the bones you have crushed rejoice. 10 Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.
11 Do not cast me from your presence or take your Holy Spirit from me.12 Restore to me the joy of your salvation and grant me a willing spirit, to
sustain me.
Commentary: The goal of confession
is mor than just being forgiven, significant though that is. Beyond forgiveness
is healing and restoration, and these seem to have been in the mind and heart
of the psalmist. Thus, he prays to once again experience ¡§joy and gladness¡¨ (v.8a), that the crushed bones of a sick and
stressed body might ¡§rejoice¡¨ (v.8b), and that his ¡§heart¡¨ (v. 10a) and creativity, and a steadfast inner disposition. This restoration was
dependent on the presence of God through the Holy Spirit (the ¡§mercy¡¨ asked for
in v. 1).
V.
51:10, Because we are born as sinners (51:5), our natural inclination is to please ourselves rather than God. David
followed that inclination when he took another man¡¦s wife. We also follow it
when we sin in any way. Like David, we must ask God to cleanse us rom within (51:7), clearing our hearts and spirits for new
thoughts and desires. Right conduct can come only from a clean heart and spirit.
Ask God to create a pure heart and spirit in you.
V. 51:12, Do you ever feel
stagnant in your faith, as though you are just going through the motions? David
felt this way. He had sinned with Bathsheba and had just been confronted by Nathan
the prophet. In his prayer he cried, ¡§Restore to me the joy of your salvation.¡¨
God wants us to be close to him and to experience his full and complete life.
But sin that remains unconfessed makes such intimacy impossible. Confess your
sin to God. You may still have to face some earthly consequences, as David did,
but God will give back the joy of your relationship with Him. (N.I.V. P. 980, 981 & P.71 of the Faith
Connection)
4. CONCLUSIONS:
1). PRAYER FOR FORGIVENESS: David¡¦s prayer of repentance
begins with a cry for mercy to the God who is
both powerful enough to forgive
and cleanse him and compassionate enough to
actually do it. The Holy Spirit,
speaking through the voice
of the prophet Nathan (2 Samuel 12), has done a
number on King David,
convicting him of his sin (Psalm 51:1-2).
2). PRAYER
FOR FORGIVENESS AGAIN: David is asking God
to do something for him he
cannot do for himself. If God cleanses him, he will
be truly clean and will be
able to rejoice again (Psalm 51:7,9).
3). PRAYER FOR RESTORATION: Confession
must become repentance.
Repentance is met with
justification and regeneration, where the Lord makes us
righteous and creates a
willing spirit within us, restoring our relationship with
God and our neighbors. (Psalm 51:8,10-12).
