David Jeremiah Daily Devotional for Today 11th June 2024
We know the story of King David’s great sins of adultery with Bathsheba and accessory to her husband’s murder (2 Samuel 11–12). What is often overlooked is that David kept silent about these sins for nearly a year before confessing. That is, David and Bathsheba’s son had been born before David was confronted by Nathan the prophet about his sin.
Psalm 51 is the great penitential psalm David wrote in the wake of that tragedy. But David wrote another psalm detailing the destructive consequences of living with unconfessed sin: Psalm 32. We don’t know if Psalm 32 was connected in any way with David’s failure. But whatever the occasion, Psalm 32 serves as a warning to those who have sinned: Don’t be like a stubborn animal who must be compelled to action (verse 9). Rather, let God’s mercy draw you to Him who is ready and willing to forgive: “I said, ‘I will confess my transgressions to the Lord,’ and You forgave the iniquity of my sin” (verse 5).
Instead of living with guilt and shame, unburden your soul to God: “Rejoice…and shout for joy, all you upright in heart!” (verse 11)
The beginning of repentance is the confession of guilt.
John Calvin
Read-Thru-the-Bible: Psalms 34 – 37
