The silent scream There are so many good Christians living with a secret sin and feel they cannot tell anyone for fear of being judged. I know firsthand what it is to be locked in that dungeon and wrestle with Satan himself only to be defeated again and again. The enemy kept me bound with lies such as, “ If you tell anyone, everything you confessed to be, will become a lie”, or “A REAL Christian would have never fell into such a trap.” I was in a spiritual wilderness, I cried, begged, made promises but still no deliverance came, I could only say, "Lord, I cannot take anymore. I am worn out. It was the secret that kept me bound, not the sin.
