Prayer to ask God for forgiveness
“Father, the weight of my sins weighs heavily on my conscience and I know there is no justice in me. I come to you begging for your great mercy, and I repent for all the many sins I have committed against you so grievously. Lord, I confess that in my pride and arrogance I even joked about your existence and blasphemed you in word and deed, however I found out that you sent your only Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, to be the only acceptable sacrifice that could pay the price for my sins. sins.
Lord, I kneel before you brokenhearted for the wrong I have done against you and plead for your grace and mercy on a pitiful sinner, who has come to confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, and that He is my Savior and Redeemer.
Wash away all my sins and cleanse my mouth and my thoughts of the dirt that has been spilled on my blackened heart. Lord, I come with humility of heart and brokenness of spirit, and I pray and thank you that in your mercy you sent Jesus to be the price for my sins. Thank you for your promise… that all who believe in Him will not perish, but will have their sins forgiven and receive the free gift of eternal life. Thank you that I have been saved by your grace, simply by trusting in the blood of Christ, in whose name I pray. Amen.”
John Calvin’s Prayer of Repentance
“Lord God, eternal and omnipotent Father, we recognize and confess before your holy Majesty that we are poor sinners, born in iniquity, inclined to evil and incapable of ourselves to practice good. We confess to having broken your holy commandments daily and in different ways, and thus deserving, by your just sentence, condemnation and death.
But, oh Lord, we feel a deep pain for having offended you and we condemn ourselves and our transgressions with true repentance, we turn to your grace and we beg you to help us in our misery.
Have mercy on us, O God of all goodness, merciful Father, and forgive us our sins, for the love of Jesus Christ, your Son, our Savior.
Grant us and increase in us every day the graces of your holy spirit, so that, always recognizing our faults, we repent and renounce them with all our hearts and bear fruits of justice and holiness that are pleasing to you, through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.”
Psalm to ask God for forgiveness
“To you, Lord, I raise my soul, my God, I put my trust in you; May I not be ashamed or laughed at by my enemies! None of those who hope in you will have to be ashamed: those who betray in vain will be ashamed.
Show me, Lord, your ways, teach me your paths. Guide me on the path of your fidelity; teach me, because you are my God and my savior, and I hope in you all day.
Remember, Lord, your compassion and your love, because they are eternal.
Do not remember the sins or rebellions of my youth: for your goodness, Lord, remember me according to your faithfulness.
The Lord is kind and upright: therefore he shows the way to the lost; He guides the humble to do what is right and shows his way to the poor.
All the paths of the Lord are love and fidelity, for those who observe the precepts of his covenant. For the honor of your Name, Lord, forgive my guilt, although it is very great!
Is there anyone who fears the Lord? He will indicate the path he must choose: his soul will rest happily and his offspring will possess the earth.
The Lord gives his friendship to those who fear him and makes his covenant known to them. My eyes are always fixed on the Lord, because he will get my feet out of the trap.
Look at me, Lord, and have mercy on me, because I am alone and afflicted: relieve the anguish of my heart, and take me out of my tribulations.
Look at my affliction and my fatigues, and forgive all my sins.
See how numerous are my enemies and how violent is the hatred they have for me.
Defend my life and deliver me: let me not be ashamed of having trusted you; integrity and righteousness protect me, because I hope in you, Lord.
Save, my God, Israel from all its anguish.”
