Prayer – Forgive Me My Sins, Oh Lord
The Weight of My Sins
Dearest Heavenly Father, I stand before You with a heart weighed down by my sins. My transgressions are many, and my failures to follow Your commandments are evident each day. Forgive me, Lord.
I have allowed pride, anger, jealousy, and many other sins to cloud my judgment and lead me astray. My spirit feels the heavy burden of these misdeeds, and the guilt can be all-consuming.
In moments of reflection, I recognize that I have let You down, allowed worldly temptations to take precedence over Your word, and given in to my weaknesses. My heart aches with the realization that my actions and thoughts have distanced me from Your presence.
Romans 3:23 For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.
1 John 2:1 My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin. But if anybody does sin, we have an advocate with the Father—Jesus Christ, the Righteous One.
The Need for Your Grace
Lord, in my sinfulness, I desperately need Your grace. I know that I am undeserving of Your love and mercy, but I beseech You to look upon me with compassion. The weight of my sins has often led me to believe that I am beyond redemption, yet I am reminded that Your love for me is unwavering, and Your forgiveness knows no bounds.
Your Son, Jesus Christ, bore the cross for my sins and offered salvation for a sinner like me. Let His sacrifice be a beacon of hope in my life, reminding me that no sin is too great for Your mercy. Cleanse me from my iniquities, and let Your grace flow over me like a refreshing stream, restoring my spirit.
Ephesians 2:4-5 But because of His great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved.
Psalm 51:1-2 Have mercy on me, O God, according to your unfailing love; according to your great compassion blot out my transgressions. Wash away all my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin.
Seeking Your Forgiveness
Father, the recognition of my sins is not enough. I have a fervent desire to make amends and to walk the path of righteousness. With Your guidance, I want to turn away from my wicked ways and make restitution wherever possible.
Empower me to confront the consequences of my actions, to seek forgiveness from those I have wronged, and to rebuild the bridges I may have burned.
Lord, fortify my resolve so that, moving forward, I might resist the snares of sin. Bestow upon me the wisdom to discern right from wrong and the strength to choose the righteous path, even when faced with adversity or temptation.
James 4:7-8 Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come near to God and He will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.
2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
Renewing My Commitment to You
In the shadow of my sins, I seek to renew my commitment to You, Lord. As I plead for Your forgiveness, I also promise to be more diligent in my relationship with You.
Let Your word be my guide, Your love my motivation, and Your grace my strength. I long to draw nearer to You, to immerse myself in Your teachings, and to be a reflection of Your love in this world.
Every day presents an opportunity to be a better version of myself, and with Your help, I vow to seize these chances. Let my heart be a sanctuary of Your love, my mind an abode of Your wisdom, and my life a testament to Your endless mercy.
Psalm 119:11 I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you.
Colossians 3:12-13 Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.
Oh Merciful Father, Your love knows no bounds, and Your forgiveness is a gift I can never repay. I am humbled by Your grace and eternally grateful for the redemption offered by the sacrifice of Jesus Christ.
As I move forward, guide my steps, keep me from sin, and help me to be a beacon of Your love in this world. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.

thank you father for your love for me and your saving grace the salvation of the lord Jesus Christ I expect you as my Lord and Savior and head of my life Lord let it be so amen
I hit rock bottom yesterday, and have continually sinned for years. But with encouragement from a friend, i reopened my Bible and the read these verses and prayed. No more will I continue the way I was. God, whom I thought hated or forsaken me, loves me. I will go forward for Him.
I know that I have sinned a lot in my life and now when I look back I am ashamed of all of the hurt I have inflicted on loved ones and others. I am so sorry for all of the pain and suffering I have caused others. Over the last few years I have started praying for forgiveness and to ask Jesus to guide me in all I do. Sometimes I feel that I have been forgiven however at other times I feel I haven’t. I really want to lead a better life and not be burdened down with my sins.
I am a back slider. Disaster. Only one way. Father and master. Not the evil one
Amén bother , God’s is willing to forgive us as long as we forgive others. That’s the word of the Lord. Been in him, we should trust.
… whenever I feel depressed, I usually pick up my phone and feed my eyes on the crazy things on social media, today, instead I stumped on this site, I selected “ prayers on freedom from debts “ each words were exactly how I felts, I just cried to God while I read on cause suicide is not an option but God is a making “a way” for me to redeem myself,
I want to thank everyone behind this platform, cause “ I’m seeing a light at the end of the tunnel “ I refuse to be consumed by debts, I refuse to hate myself for being unmarried at 36, children I desire most, still unable to get pregnant because my partner wants to have a child, the pressure of getting to age 40 without a stable income, unmarried without kids.
Lord, thank you for lifting up my spirit this morning, for I will remind steadfast.
Thank you all for making my morning, my day a memorable one.
Regards
Angela
