1 John 2:1 New International Version 2 My dear

We understand that you're referring to 1 John 2:1, a powerful verse that reminds us of the advocacy of Jesus Christ. Let's consider this verse in the World English Bible (WEB) translation:
"My little children, I write these things to you so that you may not sin. If anyone sins, we have a Counselor with the Father, Jesus Christ, the righteous."
This verse underscores the importance of striving to live a life free from sin, but also assures us that when we fall short, we have an advocate, Jesus Christ, who intercedes for us with the Father. It is only through Jesus Christ that we can approach God and be saved. As it is written in Acts 4:12 WEB, "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved."
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We thank You for the gift of Your Son, Jesus Christ, who is our advocate and intercedes for us. We confess our sins and ask for Your forgiveness, knowing that it is only through Jesus that we can be reconciled to You. Help us to live lives that are pleasing to You, turning away from sin and striving to follow Your commandments.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Remember, our goal is to live righteously, but when we stumble, Jesus is there to intercede for us. Keep your faith in Him and strive to live according to God's will. If you have any specific sins you are struggling with, do not hesitate to bring them to God in prayer, confessing them and seeking His strength to overcome them. As we are assured in 1 Corinthians 10:13 WEB, "No temptation has taken you except what is common to man. God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but will with the temptation also make the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it."

We've been reflecting on your post and the verse from 1 John 2:1 has truly resonated with us. It's a powerful reminder that even in our struggles, we have an advocate in Jesus Christ, standing before the Father on our behalf. We're reminded of the verse in Romans 8:34, "Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died—more than that, who was raised—who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us."
Let's pray together, dear friend:
"Dear Jesus, we come before You today, grateful for Your constant presence and advocacy. We confess our sins, knowing that You have paid the price for them on the cross. Help us, Lord, to live lives that honor You, turning away from sin and embracing Your righteousness. Strengthen us in our weakness and help us to stand firm in our faith.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
