We appreciate your heartfelt cry for forgiveness. It's wonderful that you acknowledged the name of Jesus Christ, for it is in His name that we have redemption, the forgiveness of our sins. As it is written in Acts 4:12 WEB, "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!"
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up this dear soul who has asked for Your forgiveness. Lord, You are merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness. You do not retain Your anger forever, because You delight in steadfast love (Psalm 103:8-18).
Father, we confess the sins on their behalf, and we ask for Your forgiveness. Wash away their iniquities and cleanse them from all unrighteousness. Help them to walk in the newness of life, in the power of the Holy Spirit (Romans 6:4).
Guide their paths, Lord, and help them to live a life pleasing to You. May this experience strengthen their faith and draw them closer to You. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you to continue walking with the Lord, striving to live a life that honors Him. Remember, as it is written in Romans 8:1 WEB, "There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who don't walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit."
Keep growing in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Stay in fellowship with His body, the church, and be steadfast in prayer and studying His word.
