Ask For Forgiveness

If we confess our sins the Lord will be faithful to his promise of mercy, and just in requiring us to have the atonement of Christ, to forgive us for our sins. We all need healing of our sins. Confess your faults as a demonstration of repentance. Repentance is not sorrow, but the fruit of sorrow; repentance is an internal change resulting, not from remorse, but from conviction of sin and sincere sorrow for it. Not one is without sin; our mistakes are many. Confess your sins to God and man so that you might be cleansed, forgiven and healed. Ask for forgiveness.

Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so God can heal you. When a believing person prays, great things happen. James 5:16

Peter said to them, Change your hearts and lives and be baptized, each one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. Acts 2:38

So you must change your hearts and lives! Come back to God, and he will forgive your sins. Then the Lord will send the time of rest. Acts 3:19

If we say we have no sin, we are fooling ourselves, and the truth is not in us. But if we confess our sins, he will forgive our sins, because we can trust God to do what is right. He will cleanse us from all the wrongs we have done. 1 John 1:8-9

I correct and punish those whom I love. So be eager to do right, and change your hearts and lives.  Revelation 3:19
