Blessed is he whose transgression has been forgiven

RESUMEN: In Psalm 32, King David thanks God for forgiving his sins, rather than asking for forgiveness. This is a testament to the joy one receives from experiencing God's forgiveness, knowing it is by grace that one is forgiven. The Psalm is a liturgical dialogue between King David and God, and an invitation to confess to God to experience the joy of forgiveness. It is interesting to note that King David's happiness and feeling of being blessed is not based on material possessions, but rather on the forgiveness of God. This teaches us that true happiness and blessings come from a relationship with God, not material possessions.
True blessings are not necessarily connected with material prosperity, but with God's forgiveness and favor. The Bible teaches us that being blessed refers to receiving God's grace despite our circumstances. In Psalm 32, David recognizes the greatness of God's forgiveness and considers himself blessed for it. We should not take God's forgiveness lightly, but remember it every day and be grateful for it. A grateful heart recognizes the need to express its gratitude to God, as illustrated by the story of the sinful woman anointing Jesus' feet. We should not deceive ourselves by covering our sins, but humbly seek God's forgiveness.
In Psalm 32, King David confesses his sins and experiences God's forgiveness. Confession involves repentance and a commitment to stop sinning. True confession frees us to enjoy an intimate relationship with God without shame. Confessing sins is a lesson for every Christian, and we should offer confessional prayers to God at any time. God forgives us, but there may be consequences for our actions. Today, we should take a few minutes to reflect on our sins before taking communion and try to confess our sins on a weekly basis.
God wants us to come to Him in the silence of our hearts and confess our sins to Him, asking for forgiveness and help to change. If we haven't yet made that prayer of faith, we can do so now and start living a new life with Christ. Christian life is lived in community, not to judge each other but to help us get closer to God every day.

Let's go to the Book of Psalms chapter 32. Today I want to share with you a Psalm that has great potential to bring us a little closer to God. Next week we are going to be celebrating Father's Day here in the United States and perhaps many are already preparing by buying things for dad, things like that, but I think it is always good to keep in perspective that our heavenly Father also needs to be celebrated and recognized in our lives and our presences, and today I want to talk about a Psalm where King David has a very interesting dialogue with God that I think shows us a little about the very intimate relationship he had with God .
I want us to read that Psalm, Psalms chapter 32, you can read it if you look it up in your Bible, but the Word of God says: “Blessed is he whose transgression has been forgiven and his sin covered. Blessed is the man to whom Jehovah does not impute iniquity and in whose spirit there is no deceit; Whereas yesterday my bones grew old in my moaning all day because by day and by night Your hand was aggravated on me, my greenery became in dryness of summer; My sin to you and did not cover up my iniquity. I said: I will confess my transgressions to Jehovah and You forgave the wickedness of my sin, that is why every saint will pray to You in the time in which you can be found. Certainly in the flood of many waters, they will not reach him; You are my refuge, you keep me from anguish, with songs of liberation you will surround me; I will make you understand and I will teach you the way you should walk, I will fix my eyes on you;"
