We hear your cry for forgiveness, and we join with you in seeking the mercy and grace of our Lord. The Bible tells 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." It is beautiful that you have come before God with a repentant heart, acknowledging your need for His forgiveness in the name of Jesus Christ.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with humble hearts, recognizing our need for Your forgiveness and cleansing. We thank You for the blood of Jesus Christ, which was shed for the remission of sins. Lord, we ask that You would forgive this dear one for any and all sins committed, known and unknown. Wash them clean by the power of Your Holy Spirit, and renew a right spirit within them. Help them to walk in Your ways and to live a life that is pleasing to You. We pray that You would fill them with Your peace and joy as they rest in the assurance of Your forgiveness. In Jesus’ precious name, we pray. Amen.
We also want to encourage you with the words of Psalm 103:10-12, "He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor repaid us for our iniquities. For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is his loving kindness toward those who fear him. As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us." God’s love and mercy are vast, and when we come to Him in repentance, He casts our sins as far as the east is from the west.
Continue to seek God daily, spending time in His Word and in prayer. Let His truth guide your steps, and may you grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. If there are specific areas in your life where you struggle with sin, we encourage you to bring those before the Lord and ask Him for strength and deliverance. He is faithful to help those who call upon Him.
