TEARING DOWN THE WALL OF SEPARATION

Written by: Juliette Ambrose

NOTHING WORKS IN OUR LIVES WHEN WE DON’T LIVE GOD’S WAY, NOT THE LEAST OF WHICH OUR PRAYERS ARE NOT ANSWERED. THIS VERSE SAYS THAT OUR SINS SEPARATES US FROM GOD SO THAT HE WILL NOT HEAR US WHEN WE PRAY. DON’T LET UNCONFESSED SINS SEPARATE YOU FROM GOD AND HINDER YOUR PRAYERS. IF YOU CAN’T THINK OF ANY SIN IN YOUR LIFE, ASK GOD TO SHOW YOU WHATEVER YOU NEED TO SEE IN THAT REGARD. ALL OF US GET THINGS IN OUR HEARTS, SOULS, MINDS, ATTITUDES, AND EMOTIONS THAT SHOULDN’T BE THERE AND ARE NOT GOD’S BEST FOR OUR LIVES. OFTEN WE HAVE SIN IN OUR HEARTS AND DON’T REALIZE IT UNTIL WE STARS PAYING THE CONSEQUENCES FOR IT. DON’T LET ANY SEPARATION HAPPEN BETWEEN YOU AND GOD. TALK TO HIM DAILY ABOUT THE CONDITION OF YOUR HEART. ASK GOD OFTEN TO KEEP YOU UNDECEIVED. AND WHEN HE REVEALS ANY SIN CONFESS IT IMMEDIATELY SO THAT YOU CAN BE CLEANSED OF IT. WE ALL FAIL AT TIMES, SO DON’T LET ANY FAILURE ON YOUR PART HINDER YOUR PRAYERS IN ANY WAY. IF YOU TAKE CARE OF THIS ISSUE BY YOURSELF WITH GOD IN THE DAYTIME, BY CONFESSING AND REPENTING OF ALL YOUR SINS AS SOON AS YOU ARE AWARE OF IT, THEN YOU WON’T HAVE TO BE DEALING WITH THE EFFECTS OF IT WHEN YOU ARE TRYING TO SLEEP AT NIGHT.

LORD, I KNOW MY LIFE DOES NOT WORK WHEN I AM NOT LIVING YOUR WAY. HELP ME TO STAY UNDECEIVED ABOUT MY OWN SIN SO THAT I CAN CONFESS IT IMMEDIATELY AND BE CLEANSED OF IT. I DON’T WANT ANYTHING TO SEPARATE ME FROM YOU AND HINDER MY PRAYERS BY CAUSING YOU TO NOT HEAR THEM. SHOW ME HOW TO TEAR DOWN MY WALLS OF SEPARATION THAT MAY ARISE BECAUSE OF MY SINS.
