Sometimes we’re afraid of losing our reputation or being publicly exposed. Get honest and get your mistakes out in the open. Here are the Seven Steps that David took to get right with God: This Scripture also shows us the steps David took on his “road to spiritual recovery.” Psalm 51 gives us a snapshot of what’s going on inside of David’s heart after Nathan the prophet confronts David in his sin (2 Samuel 12). He loved the Lord, yet in a weak moment he found himself committing adultery with Bathsheba and trying to cover it up by murdering her husband.
David was one of the most Godly men in all of Scripture. In the Bible, the story of David is one of the best examples of someone who blew it big time and then got his life right with God. So, how do we get right with God again after we’ve done something entirely wrong? The Bible says “all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” (Rom 3:23) Yet, many of us don’t know how to recover afterward.
Regardless of how we messed up, the one thing we all share in common is that we’ve all made mistakes. Maybe it’s an abortion you had, or an affair, or you stole something.
For others, it’s a secret we’ve never told anyone. For some of us those things are a big, dark, ugly past. Sometimes smart people do dumb things, wise people do foolish things, and Godly people do sinful things.
