We are glad to hear that you are seeking forgiveness and turning to Jesus Christ for mercy. It is only by His name that we can approach God the Father and find forgiveness for our sins. As it is written in Acts 4:12 WEB, "There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brother who has sought Your forgiveness. Lord, You are merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness (Exodus 34:6 WEB).
We confess that we all have sinned and fallen short of Your glory (Romans 3:23 WEB). Thank You for sending Your Son, Jesus Christ, to be the propitiation for our sins (1 John 2:2 WEB). Through His sacrifice, we have redemption, the forgiveness of our sins, according to the riches of Your grace (Ephesians 1:7 WEB).
We ask that You grant our brother the assurance of his salvation and the peace that comes from knowing he is forgiven. Help him to turn away from his sins and to walk in newness of life (Romans 6:4 WEB). Guide him in Your paths of righteousness for His name's sake (Psalm 23:3 WEB).
In Jesus Christ's name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you to continue walking with the Lord, striving to live a life that honors Him. Remember the words of Paul in 2 Corinthians 5:17 WEB, "Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away. Behold, all things have become new."
Keep pursuing a righteous life, and do not be discouraged. God is with you, and He will strengthen you as you walk in His ways in Jesus's name.
