When David knew that there was deception and wicked plans
being plotted, why didn't he speak up or point out what was going on?
What does "shall not prosper" mean in Proverbs 28:13?
What does God's word say about anyone who tries to cover his
sin? What will his life be like? (See Numbers 32:23 & Psalm 38:4)
Even though David had committed adultery and murder, did God
still love him? And did He chasten David during the year he covered his iniquity?
Speaking of today, does God love His people? Does our
hidden sin anger God? Does God still chasten us for covering our
sin?
What are some of the physical and emotional effects of hidden,
unconfessed sin in our lives?
What were some of the cost that David paid during his year
of unconfessed sin?
Who made David's sin burden so heavy? And what was the
reason for it?
Why does God Himself make our hidden sin so heavy, chaotic
and terrifying?
When the heaviness became to much for David to bear any longer,
what did he do?
What is the danger to a Christian that feels no guilt, heaviness
or remorse over his sin? Think about the many Christians who no longer
grieve over their sin. What has happened to their hearts?
In the example given about Ezekiel, what was the real condition
of these 70 elders?
When God's fiery presence filled the room, what was the reaction
of these 70 "church goers"? And what caused them to feel this way?
If you have a besetting sin, does it trouble and grieve you?
Does it cuase you emotional pain, guilt, sorrow and despari? Do you
feel you're almost ready to collapse under the heavy load of it?
Does your heart cry out, "Lord, my sins are over my head.
I know that Your chastening hand is upon me. I don't want to be a
slave to it any longer. Please give me back my freedom"? (If
your answer is "YES", then you're on the way to healing and deliverance.)
