Approaching the Throne of God
Confessions of Sin & Assurances of Pardon
Derek W. H. Thomas
Foreword by Sinclair B. Ferguson
Afterword by Dale Ralph Davis
For individual devotion, or congregational use
These prayers, written by a pastor for his beloved congregation, remind us of our need for repentance and assure us from Scripture of God’s abounding love. Discover afresh that God’s grace is all–sufficient. Be reminded that in Jesus Christ the heavenly Father has given us a loving Savior, and by his Spirit reassures us that there is forgiveness. This book will be an invaluable addition to an individual’s daily devotion, or for pastors to use with their own congregations.

Distinguished pastor–theologian Derek Thomas offers us beautiful and thoughtful expressions of confessing our sins and of being refreshed and renewed by the ever–flowing streams of God’s mercy.

These are beautiful prayers framed by Scripture, helping us to pray with understanding and depth, to grasp the gravity of our sin, and to marvel at the wonder and joy of forgiveness.

Too often, in our haste to get to the “real” work of prayer, we neglect confession. But through his example, and now with this book, Derek offers a needed reminder. Expect to be humbled, drawn closer to God, and brought to the Throne, where grace and mercy reign.
