May 19, 2025 – Secret Faults Result in Moral Earthquakes
Psalm 19:12-14
Sermon: 1866 Can an Intellectual Believe in God?, Part 1

Pray Over This

“Who can understand his errors? Cleanse me from secret faults. Keep back Your servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me. Then I shall be blameless, and I shall be innocent of great transgression. Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, O LORD, my strength and my Redeemer.”
Psalm 19:12-14

Ponder This

You don’t have what it takes to understand the things of God; only the Holy Spirit of God can help you understand. Who can convict you of sin? Your heart is not going to expose your heart. As a matter of fact, the Bible says of the Holy Spirit in John 16:8, “When He has come, He will convict the world of sin.”

Did you know that you have secret faults you don’t know anything about? In Memphis, Tennessee, there is a hidden fault called the New Madrid fault. Can you look down and see that fault in the ground? No, but it’s there. One of these days it may cause an earthquake. A lot of times, people have moral earthquakes because they have secret faults they fail to recognize are there.

We need to open ourselves up to God and let the Holy Spirit reveal our secret faults. The psalmist was not playing a cover-up game; he opened himself up before God because he wanted to be with God. Let’s do the same.

• Why are we prone to hiding, even before God?
• What are some of the faults you have hidden or tried to ignore?

Practice This

Ask God to bring conviction where you need it; confess and turn from your sin.
