Psalms 66:16-20
(16) Come and hear, all you who fear God, and I will tell what he has done for my soul.
(17) I cried to him with my mouth, and high praise was on my tongue.
(18) If I had cherished iniquity in my heart, the Lord would not have listened.
(19) But truly God has listened; he has attended to the voice of my prayer.
(20) Blessed be God, because he has not rejected my prayer or removed his steadfast love from me!
That pretty much sums up my story and why I want to go into vocational ministry. It all starts with humble confession and a desire to lift God up above all else. He won't listen as long as we are merely sorry for the consequences. He wants our whole hearts. Fortunately, He gives us His Spirit to bring us to true godly sorrow.
God has done this for me as I found freedom from bondage to pornography, self-gratification, gluttony, and laziness. He will free you from any bondage. Will you forsake the iniquity in your heart and call out to Him in humble confession?
