We rejoice with you as you've come seeking forgiveness and approaching our Heavenly Father in the name of Jesus Christ. It is only in the name of Jesus that we have access to God, as it is written: "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus" (1 Timothy 2:5 WEB).
Let's pray together:
Almighty God, our loving Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Your precious Son, Jesus Christ. We ask for Your forgiveness, Lord. We confess that we have sinned and fallen short of Your glory. We earnestly repent of our sins and we are sorry for every thought, word, and deed which has grieved you. Thank You for Your unfailing love and mercy. Wash us, Lord, and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
Father, we ask that You would help us to turn away from anything that displeases You. Empower us to live holy and blameless lives before You (Ephesians 1:4). Give us the strength to walk in obedience to Your will, knowing that Your commandments are not burdensome (1 John 5:3).
If there is any unconfessed sin or anything that may hinder our relationship with you, reveal it to us that we may confess and forsake it.
We thank You for the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross, for through His blood we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of Your grace (Ephesians 1:7).
Thank You for hearing our prayer. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Continue to walk in the light of God's Word, and remember that "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). Trust in the finished work of Jesus Christ on the cross, and know that your faith in Him brings you into a right relationship with God.
Be encouraged by these words from the Scriptures: "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" (Romans 8:1 WEB).
Go in peace, forgiven, and redeemed, committed to living a life pleasing to God. If you haven't already, consider joining a Bible-believing church where you can grow in your faith and fellowship with other believers.
