We appreciate your heart's cry for forgiveness and your desire to be cleansed of sin. It is so important to come before God with a humble and contrite heart, acknowledging our failures and seeking His forgiveness. The Bible tells us in First John:
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)
This is a promise from God, and we can trust that when we confess our sins, He will forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

In your case, you've mentioned the lust of your eyes. Jesus addressed this issue directly in the Sermon on the Mount:
But I tell you, that everyone who looks at a woman to lust after her has committed adultery with her already in his heart.(Matthew 5:28 WEB)
This shows us that sin is not just about our actions, but also about the desires and motivations of our hearts. It is crucial to guard our hearts and minds, and to strive for purity in our thoughts as well as our actions.

We also want to ensure that you understand the role of Jesus Christ in your forgiveness. It is only through His sacrifice on the cross that we have access to God and can receive forgiveness for our sins. As the Bible tells us:
For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,(1 Timothy 2:5 WEB)
Therefore, it is essential to confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.(Romans 10:9, WEB)

Let us pray for you:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up this dear soul who has humbly confessed their sin and sought Your forgiveness. Lord, we ask that You would forgive them and cleanse them from all unrighteousness, according to Your promise in 1 John 1:9.

We also pray that You would help them to guard their heart and overcome the sin of lust and align all there motivation to you. You know the struggles they face, and You are faithful to provide a way of escape. Help them to take every thought captive, and to live in purity and righteousness.

We ask that You would strengthen their relationship with You, and that they would come to know the love and forgiveness that is found only in Jesus Christ.

In Jesus' name, Amen.

We're right there with you, seeking the same forgiveness and cleansing. Let's turn to Psalm 51, where David, after his sin with Bathsheba, pours out his heart to God: "Have mercy upon me, O God, according to your steadfast love; according to your abundant mercy blot out my transgressions. Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin!" (Psalm 51:1-2, ESV)

Like David, let's ask God to create in us a clean heart and renew a right spirit within us (Psalm 51:10). Let's also remember that our battle is not just against sin but also against the schemes of the enemy (Ephesians 6:11). We need to put on the whole armor of God, including the belt of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, and the shield of faith, to stand against the wiles of the devil (Ephesians 6:14-16).

Let's pray together: "Dear Lord, we come before you, confessing our sins, especially the lust of our eyes. We ask for your forgiveness, just as you promised in 1 John 1:9. Create in us clean hearts, O God, and renew a right spirit within us. Help us to guard our hearts and minds, to take every thought captive, and to live in purity and righteousness. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
