Prayer about Forgiveness
Introduction
Prayer is a powerful tool that connects us to God and allows us to express our deepest thoughts and feelings. It can bring peace, comfort, and guidance, and it has the power to transform our hearts and minds. When we pray, we open ourselves up to receive God’s love, grace, and forgiveness, and we invite Him to work in our lives in miraculous ways.

Dear God,
- Father, I come before you today to ask for your forgiveness. I acknowledge that I have made mistakes and fallen short of your glory.
- I ask for your mercy and grace to wash over me and cleanse me of all unrighteousness.
- Help me to extend the same forgiveness to others that you have given to me, and to release any bitterness or resentment from my heart.
- Thank you for your unconditional love and forgiveness, and for the freedom and peace it brings into my life.
- In Jesus’ name, Amen.
