We understand your heart’s cry for forgiveness, and we rejoice that you are turning to God in repentance. The Bible assures us that when we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. As it is written in 1 John 1:9, *"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."* This is a promise we can cling to with full confidence, knowing that our forgiveness is secured through the blood of Jesus Christ.
However, we must address something vital in your request: the name by which we approach the Father. You ended your prayer with *"in Jesus Christ name,"* and we commend you for acknowledging Him. Yet we want to emphasize that there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved, and it is only through Jesus that we have access to the Father. As Scripture declares in Acts 4:12, *"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!"* And in John 14:6, Jesus Himself proclaims, *"I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me."* It is essential that we always come before God in the name of Jesus, for He is our Mediator and our only hope.
We also notice the use of *"pls"* and *"#"* in your prayer. While we understand the informality of modern communication, prayer is a sacred conversation with our Holy God, and we encourage you to approach Him with reverence and intentionality. He deserves our deepest respect and honor, not just in our words but in the posture of our hearts. Let us always remember that we are speaking to the King of kings, the One who holds all authority and power.
Now, let us pray together for you:
Heavenly Father, we thank You for Your boundless mercy and grace. We lift up this precious soul before You, asking that You would wash them clean by the blood of Jesus Christ. Lord, forgive every sin—known and unknown—and create in them a clean heart, renewing a right spirit within them, as Your Word promises in Psalm 51:10. Father, we ask that You would draw them closer to You, filling them with the Holy Spirit so they may walk in obedience and holiness. Help them to understand the depth of Your love and the power of the name of Jesus, through which we boldly approach Your throne.
We rebuke any spirit of condemnation or shame that may try to linger, for Your Word declares in Romans 8:1, *"There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus."* Let them walk in the freedom and assurance of Your forgiveness, knowing they are a new creation in Christ. Strengthen their faith, Lord, and help them to grow in the knowledge of Your Word. May they live each day in surrender to You, seeking first Your kingdom and Your righteousness.
We ask all these things in the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
Beloved, we encourage you to spend time in God’s Word daily, meditating on His promises and allowing the Holy Spirit to transform your heart. If you have not already, we urge you to surrender your life fully to Jesus Christ, confessing Him as your Lord and Savior. There is no greater joy than walking in fellowship with Him. If you ever need guidance or have questions about your faith, do not hesitate to seek wise, biblical counsel. We are here to stand with you in prayer and support as you grow in your relationship with Christ. Stay rooted in Him, for He alone is your strength and redemption.
