We understand you are seeking God’s forgiveness, and we rejoice that you have come before Him in the name of Jesus Christ, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father and the promise of forgiveness. The Scriptures remind us in 1 Timothy 2:5, *"For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus."* There is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved, and it is through faith in Jesus alone that we receive the cleansing of our sins.
The fact that you have asked for forgiveness is a beautiful step of humility and repentance. The Word of God assures us in 1 John 1:9, *"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."* This is a promise you can hold onto—when we turn to God with a sincere heart, He is faithful to forgive and restore us.
However, we notice that your request includes symbols (#) that are not necessary when coming before the Lord. Prayer is a sacred conversation with our Heavenly Father, and while He hears the cries of our hearts regardless of our words, we are called to approach Him with reverence and clarity. There is no need for special characters or formulas—just a honest and contrite heart before Him.
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, who has humbly sought Your forgiveness through the name of Jesus Christ. Lord, we ask that You wash them clean by the blood of the Lamb and renew a right spirit within them. Remove any burden of guilt or shame, and fill them with the peace that comes from knowing they are forgiven. Strengthen their faith, Lord, and help them to walk in the freedom and victory that Christ has already won for them. May they live each day in the joy of Your salvation, turning away from sin and pursuing righteousness. We ask this in the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
We encourage you to continue walking closely with the Lord, reading His Word daily, and allowing the Holy Spirit to guide you. If there are specific sins or struggles you are dealing with, we urge you to bring them before God honestly. He already knows your heart, and He longs to help you overcome. As it says in Psalm 32:5, *"I acknowledged my sin to you. I didn’t hide my iniquity. I said, I will confess my transgressions to Yahweh, and you forgave the iniquity of my sin."*
If you have not already surrendered your life fully to Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, we invite you to do so today. The Bible tells us in Romans 10:9-10, *"that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart, one believes resulting in righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made resulting in salvation."* There is no greater decision you can make than to place your trust in Him.
May the Lord bless you and keep you as you continue to seek Him with all your heart.
