We honor God by confessing our sins because in so doing we declare that He is worthy to be confessed to. This is an admission that God knows better than we do and has the authority to set a standard to which we are held accountable. Just as the Israelites did by beginning their prayer of confessions with an acknowledgement of God's greatness, so we can begin our confessions with praise to God for His power, grace, and faithfulness towards us.
