A Prayer of Forgiveness

Heavenly Father,

I come to You in humility and repentance, acknowledging that I have sinned against You and failed to live up to Your holy standards. I ask for Your forgiveness, and I receive Your mercy and grace through Your Son, Jesus Christ. I confess that I have not loved You with all my heart, soul, mind, and strength, and I have not loved my neighbors as myself. I have lied, stolen, coveted, and have been guilty of all manner of sins. I have not honored You in my thoughts, words, and actions.

I ask You to cleanse me from all unrighteousness and renew a right spirit within me. I turn from my sins and commit myself to follow You and live according to Your Word. I ask that You would fill me with Your Holy Spirit and empower me to resist temptation and to love and serve others. I ask that You would give me the strength and wisdom to overcome my sinful nature and that You would help me to grow in grace and in the knowledge of You.

I thank You for Your love, Your mercy, and Your grace, and I praise You for the sacrifice of Your Son, Jesus Christ, who died for my sins and rose again. I trust in You and in the power of His blood to cleanse me from all unrighteousness.

I give You all the glory and honor, now and forever. Amen.
