We are grateful to Anonymous request and that they have come to us with a humble heart, seeking forgiveness and a renewed focus on the future. It is wonderful that this request is in Jesus' name, for it is by His name that we are saved.
Firstly, let us address the need for forgiveness. We all fall short of the glory of God and need His forgiveness. As it is written in 1 John 1:9 WEB If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. So, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before you to confess our sins and seek your forgiveness. We thank you for your unfailing love and mercy. Like the Psalmist, we say Lord, do not rebuke me in your anger, Nor discipline me in your wrath. Psalms 6:1 WEB Have mercy on us, O Lord, for we are weak. Heal us, for our bones are troubled. Psalm 6:2 WEB Our soul is in turmoil. But you, Lord how long. Psalm 6:3 WEB
Now, let us address the desire to look forward. It is essential to remember that with God, our future is always bright. As it is written in Jeremiah 29:11 WEB For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says Yahweh, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future.
Let us pray:
Heavenly Father, help us to always look forward with hope and anticipation. Help us to trust in your plans for us, knowing that they are good, pleasing, and perfect. Romans 12:2 WEB Help us to learn from the past but not be chained to it, to press on toward the goal for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. Philippians 3:14 WEB
In closing, let us encourage you to continue in this attitude of prayer and humility. Remember the words from 1 Peter 5:7 WEB, Casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you.
We will continue to pray for you.
