When I confess, God is faithful to forgive and cleanse me.

A Bible affirmation for breaking free, rooted in 1 John 1:9.

If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

1 John 1:9 · BSB

Reflection

John says God is faithful and just to forgive. Faithful means He keeps doing it. A relapse doesn't use up His forgiveness. Each honest confession is met with cleansing, not a lecture.

A prayer

God, I confess where I've fallen. Thank You for being faithful to forgive and cleanse me.
