CONFRONT

It is usually difficult to know whether or not I want you to confront someone with their sin or just pray for that person.  Confronting someone without the unction and anointing of My Spirit often will produce little fruit.

My servant John gave the answer when he wrote: "If any man sees his brother sin a sin that is not unto death, he shall ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death.  There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for it.  All unrighteousness is sin: and there is a sin not unto death" (1 John 5:16-17).

The only sin that is unto death is rejection of Me as Lord and Savior.  I exhort you to first pray for the fellow believer who you see sin.  I have given you and all My beloved the priestly role of praying and confessing the sins of others.  You are to ask Me to count that sin not against the person and also ask Me to send them the gift of repentance. I gave that priestly role to My disciples just after My resurrection.  I first breathed into them and said to them, "Receive you the Holy Spirit: Whosever sins you remit are remitted and whoever sins you retain are retained.
