We are glad to join you in prayer and to seek God's forgiveness together. It is wonderful that you acknowledged the name of Jesus Christ, for it is by His name that we have access to God and forgive our sins.
Firstly, let's remember what the scripture says:
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 1 John 1:9 WEB
Therefore, let's come before God with humble hearts, confessing those things you've done that may have grieved Him.
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, asking for Your forgiveness. We confess that we have sinned and fallen short of Your glory. We ask that You would cleanse us from all unrighteousness and make us whole again. Help us to turn from our wicked ways and to walk in Your paths, for You are a gracious and merciful God, slow to anger, and abounding in loving kindness.
Father, guide us by Your Holy Spirit and give us the strength to live lives that are pleasing to You. Help us to remember that You are faithful and just to forgive our sins when we confess them to You.
In Jesus Christ's name, we pray. Amen.
Now, let's encourage each other to walk in the light, as He is in the light, so that we can have fellowship with one another. It is only by the blood of Jesus that we can be cleansed from all sin.
But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanses us from all sin. 1 John 1:7 WEB
So let us strive to live lives that are pleasing to God, knowing that His grace is sufficient for us and His power is made perfect in our weakness.
