- 0:00Speaker 1: I am Sherry Mackie. At its time right now for
- 0:03Speaker 1: us to go to God in prayer, and as always
- 0:06Speaker 1: I ask that you join along with me in prayer.
- 0:11Speaker 1: You know, I think about sin. The Word of God
- 0:14Speaker 1: tells us that we've all sinned and come short of
- 0:18Speaker 1: the glory of God. Oh, but I thank God for
- 0:22Speaker 1: First John one and nine says that if we confess
- 0:25Speaker 1: our sins, God is faithful and just to forgive us
- 0:28Speaker 1: and cleanse us of all unrighteousness. Today, I want to
- 0:33Speaker 1: remind you that God's grace is sufficient for you. I
- 0:36Speaker 1: don't care how many times you messed up and how
- 0:38Speaker 1: bad you think it's been. God will forgive you, and
- 0:43Speaker 1: He'll restore you to Himself, Heavenly Father, in the name
- 0:47Speaker 1: of Jesus, we come before you with our hearts said
- 0:50Speaker 1: long for your mercy. God. We confess God that we
- 0:53Speaker 1: sin against you sometimes in our thoughts and our words,
- 0:56Speaker 1: and even in our actions. God, we fall short of
- 0:59Speaker 1: your glory and God, we acknowledge our need for your
- 1:03Speaker 1: mercy for your forgiveness. God. But your word gives us
- 1:06Speaker 1: hope because You've said in your word, you promised in
- 1:09Speaker 1: your word, and first John one and nine that when
- 1:12Speaker 1: we confess our sins, you are faithful, You are just
- 1:17Speaker 1: to forgive us of our sins and cleanse us God
- 1:20Speaker 1: from all unrighteousness. Lord, Today we confess our sins to You.
- 1:25Speaker 1: We ask God for your forgiveness God, whether it's a
- 1:28Speaker 1: lie that we've spoken, and every time God, we've been dishonest. God,
- 1:33Speaker 1: those sins of lustful thoughts and impure desires that have
- 1:37Speaker 1: taken our hearts away from You. God, we ask for
- 1:40Speaker 1: for your forgiveness Lord, for the anger, for the bitterness,
- 1:43Speaker 1: for the unforgiveness that we've held toward others that we
- 1:46Speaker 1: feel like have wronged us. God, forgive us and help
- 1:51Speaker 1: us to forgive like we have been forgiven by You
- 1:55Speaker 1: and God, that sneaky sin of pride and self righteousness,
- 2:00Speaker 1: thinking we could do things our way instead of Your way,
- 2:04Speaker 1: thinking that we're right in our own eyes. Forgive us
- 2:07Speaker 1: God for moments of doubt and lack of faith, forgetting
- 2:10Speaker 1: that you are in control and we can trust You
- 2:13Speaker 1: with our lives. For speaking words that hurt others instead
- 2:17Speaker 1: of building them up. Forgive us God for neglecting prayer
- 2:20Speaker 1: and time with You and in your word, allowing the
- 2:23Speaker 1: distractions of the world to take priority in our lives.
- 2:26Speaker 1: Forgive us God for any sexual sins, whether in thought
- 2:31Speaker 1: or action, that does not honor you. God. Forgive us
- 2:35Speaker 1: for envy, for jealous comparing ourselves to others instead of
- 2:39Speaker 1: being grateful for what You've given us and who you've
- 2:42Speaker 1: made us. God, forgive us Lord, every weight, every sin,
- 2:46Speaker 1: those things I couldn't think of. God, we lay it
- 2:49Speaker 1: at your feet and ask for your forgiveness. Wash us
- 2:52Speaker 1: clean with your blood, remove every stain of guilt and shame,
- 2:57Speaker 1: and renew our hearts. Restore us, restore the joy of
- 3:00Speaker 1: our salvation, and give us the strength to turn away
- 3:03Speaker 1: from every sin, every weight that so easily besets us.
- 3:08Speaker 1: Thank you, Lord for your mercy. Thank you Lord for
- 3:10Speaker 1: your grace. Thank you for never giving up on us. God,
- 3:13Speaker 1: we receive your forgiveness by faith, knowing that you love
- 3:16Speaker 1: us and that you've made us new in Christ. Help
- 3:19Speaker 1: us God to walk in righteousness, filled with your spirit
- 3:23Speaker 1: and living for your glory in the mighty, wonderful, matchless
- 3:28Speaker 1: name of Jesus. We pray, Amen, Amen,
