We are so grateful that you have come to us with a humble heart, acknowledging your sins and seeking repentance and forgiveness. It is written in 1 John 1:9, "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." This is a promise from God, and we can trust in His faithfulness.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today, lifting up our brother/sister who has stumbled but is seeking Your forgiveness. Lord, You are merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness. We confess these sins before You, asking for Your forgiveness and cleansing.
Father, we also pray for guidance and strength. Help our brother/sister to get back on the right track, to walk in Your ways, and to live a life that honors You. Give them the power of Your Holy Spirit to overcome temptation and to grow in their relationship with You.
We pray this all in the precious name of Jesus Christ, who came to save sinners like us. It is only by His shed blood and sacrifice that we have access to You, Lord, and can claim your promises. We thank You for forgiveness, love, mercy and grace.
In Jesus Christ's name, we pray, Amen.
Be encouraged, dear one. God is always ready to forgive and to help us start anew. As it is written in Psalm 103:12, "As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us." Trust in His love and mercy, and strive to live a life that pleases Him.
Remember, Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. It is only by Him that we have access to God the Father and can claim confess our sins and have them forgiven. By believing in Jesus Christ, we can be saved and spend eternity with God. Amen.
