 How do you do that? Well, if you have any known sin in your life, then obviously God's Holy Spirit is quenched and grieved, and the ability to receive divine inspiration from the scriptures you're going to hear today will be nullified. Therefore, 1 John 1.9 is your recovery verse, and it's very clear. It says what? If we confess our sin, then he's faithful and just to forgive us of our sin and purify us from all of our wrongdoing.
