Don't be Self-conscious with God

At many times we are self-conscious human beings to where we are always trying to make sure we do something a certain way or even look a certain way.  Why do we constantly try and impress others?  Why is there such a NEED for this today?  The enemy wants us to focus on all the distractions around us and be in competition with our brothers and sisters.  He wants us to focus on the bigger and better and never be satisfied or content.  He wants us to keep trying and trying until our time is finished here on earth.  So here is a scary thing we do: we get self-conscious with God.  God already knows everything about us, he did create us and knew us before we were ever even formed in the womb.  We are aware of issues we have, and some God knows about and we haven't even discovered them yet.  So why in our prayer time do we sit asking for things, or pretending that everything is fine?  Who are we fooling?  Only Ourselves!!!!  God can see right through us as clear as day.  The only way we are going to get real revelation is if we get on our knees and on our face before God and lay it all out there.  We need to be honest with ourselves and our ugly sides of how we act and how we are with our sin and stop making excuses for it.  Let's call it what it is "SIN"  We need to be bold before Our Father and ask for him to reveal things in us that the enemy has hidden, we need light shed on those areas, we need breakthrough, we need revelation in the heavenly realms.  These things can happen, but it is up to us!! God takes all the steps but one, he wants us to take that final step.  Time to start getting real with God and stop being so self-conscious, God wants you to have the very best, but this is something you cannot do on your own.   You have to deny yourself and totally surrender to him and follow him.
