Merciful God, pardon, forgive and blot out every sin that can hinder our blessings during this prayer season.
“If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all.” 1 John 1:8-9
“Behold, the Lord’s hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; nor His ear heavy, that it cannot hear. But your iniquities have separated you from your God; and your sins have hidden His face from you, so that He will not hear.” Isaiah 59:1-2
“I, even I, am He who blots out your transgressions for My own sake; And I will not remember your sins.” Isaiah 43:25
We thank God for the 6th day of our Lent, a season of prayer and fasting; may God sustain us and give us the grace to end it well. Today we are asking for pardon from the merciful God to forgive us of all our iniquities as sinners.
Sin is a factor that can hinder us from receiving from God and severing our relationship with Him. “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: while we were still sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8). All he has asked us to do is to come to repentance and forsake our old ways and be renewed in Christ Jesus.
Sin shall no longer have dominion over us (Romans 6:14) for we have found grace and mercy in God. Our dominion over sin is total and complete, we are no longer subject to the whims and caprices of the devil through the death and resurrection of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
Also, let’s remember to forgive all those who have wronged us so that our heavenly father can forgive us as well (Luke 11:4).
May God’s hand be upon us mightily to do great and mighty things in Jesus’ name.
