Prayers of repentance to our Lord Jesus Christ. Orthodox prayer of repentance for sins

The prayer of repentance is essentially a request to God for forgiveness of sins. This is a kind of step of a person towards God and his recognition of his helplessness in the fight against his spiritual vices. You should not think that having read a special prayer of repentance once, you can count on forgiveness of your sins.

During his life's journey, a person commits many different sins almost every day. Sometimes life circumstances force this, but much more often people simply cannot resist one or another temptation. And the Lord, being a true lover of mankind, understands that there are no sinless people, because it is very difficult for a simple person to resist demonic obsessions.

The well-known tradition of Jesus Christ says that unkind thoughts are born in the heart of a person, which defile it. That is, first, in the subconscious of a person, the emergence of sinful thoughts occurs, which subsequently turn into sinful actions. The prayer of repentance should be offered already at the moment when the first sinful thoughts appeared.

The prayer of repentance to Jesus Christ is said for the remission of sins. It is very powerful if read with deep faith in the soul and in accordance with the rules. You need to create it alone. You should close yourself in a separate room and place in front of you icons of the Savior, the Most Holy Theotokos and the Holy Matrona of Moscow.

After you manage to tune in to prayer and renounce all worldly affairs, you should say the following prayer words:

“I, the Servant of God (proper name), am in the hands of Your great mercy, Lord. Most High and Almighty God, I entrust to You my soul and body, my feelings and speeches, all my deeds and thoughts, as well as any movements of my soul. You see my whole life and my outcome, you understand everything about my faith and my life, you know what awaits me ahead and you see my death, my last day and hour, my repose, the repose of body and soul. Show your mercy to me, Great Lover of Mankind, who forgives sins and does not hold grudges against us sinners and unworthy, who forgives us and gives hope to the soul. Extend your hand of protection to me, Lord, and cleanse my soul from all evil. Forgive the iniquities that I committed through foolishness. Help me correct my life, show me the righteous path and teach me to live according to the commandments of God. Protect me from future sins. And if I anger you with my actions, do not punish me, but let me repent and hope for Your forgiveness. Help me not to succumb to sinful temptations and resist demonic temptations, protect me from my enemies and keep my enemies away from me. Grant me a Christian death, after confession, peaceful and calm. I glorify Your Holy Name, Lord, forever and ever. Amen".

Orthodox prayers of repentance and forgiveness

In order to atone for your sins and have hope for the repose of your soul after death in the Kingdom of God, you must definitely visit the temple and offer a prayer of repentance near the icon of the Savior. It is important to attend Divine Services. But the most important thing is to sincerely desire to receive God’s condescension in the form of his grace, which will testify to the remission of sins. This can be evidenced by the lightness that has arisen in the soul. During prayer, you should understand with all your heart that the Lord forgives everyone who sincerely loves him and asks for forgiveness.

Prayer of repentance for the entire family

The prayer of repentance for the entire family is very popular among believers. It might sound like this:

“I, the Servant of God (my own name), turn to You, Heavenly Father, Almighty and All-Merciful, and I want to pray for my entire family. I ask you to send happiness and health to all members of my family. I repent for all those of my relatives who live next to me. I take full responsibility upon myself and pray for my entire family. Lord, I offer a prayer of repentance to You for myself and for the imperfections of all my ancestors. Maybe there were criminals and murderers among them, maybe someone cursed my family, God forgive me for that, Lord. Help, Heavenly Father, cleanse the roots of my family tree, fill its trunk with vital energy, give strength to my family. Thank You, Lord, for Your mercy! I sincerely repent for all those mistakes and sins, voluntary or involuntary, that members of my family committed. Forgive them and give them hope for finding happiness and peace, in glorifying Your Holy Name. Forgive, Lord, all our human weaknesses, for you yourself said that there are no sinless people.

Heal, Almighty and All-Merciful, the wounds on the body of my family tree. Forgive us for everything, make my family tree strong, beautiful and fruitful.

I thank you, Almighty, for the harmony and happiness in my life, for allowing me to help myself and my entire family. Amen".

Prayer of repentance for sins to God

Only a strong person knows how to forgive and ask for forgiveness. And this is assessed according to its merits by the Lord God. After all, the Son of the Lord Jesus Christ himself, being in the form of a man, performed a majestic act of forgiveness. He took upon himself all the sins of people and forgave them, for which he experienced a painful death, being crucified on the cross.

The prayer for the forgiveness of sins should be read as often as possible. After all, we sometimes allow sinful thoughts and commit unseemly acts without thinking about it at all. The power of such a prayer appeal lies in the fact that the person praying confirms his repentance for voluntary or involuntary sins and asks for the mercy of the Lord for their forgiveness.

A short prayer goes like this:

“Lord God, Heavenly Father, Almighty, All-Merciful and All-Merciful, hear the prayer of the Servant of God (proper name) for the forgiveness of all my voluntary and involuntary sins. Only You, my God, know what is saving for me, so I ask for Your help. You, the Great Lover of Humanity, do not allow me to commit sins again, do not allow me to succumb to sinful temptations. Protect me, Lord, from sins and ill-wishers who force me to turn away from the righteous path and break the commandments of God. Grant me forgiveness, for you, Lord, are my strength and my hope. I glorify Your Holy Name in prayers and send thanks to You. Amen".

The prayer of repentance to Archangel Michael is very powerful and gives real protection in life. To do this, you need to use it daily. Such a prayer appeal should be read alone in full concentration, renouncing all worldly problems and vain affairs.

The prayer appeal sounds like this:

“Oh, Holy Archangel Michael, intercessor of all who ask, standing before the throne of the Lord! You, bright and formidable commander of the King of Heaven, do not allow demonic forces to approach a true believer! Let me turn to you with a bold request to the servant of God (proper name). Before the Last Judgment, grant my soul relief, allow me to repent of my sins. Ask the Lord for forgiveness of my sins, voluntary and involuntary, bring my soul to the Almighty Creator, seated on the Cherubim.

In my hour of life, pray for me, so that my soul may rest after death in the Kingdom of Heaven. Answer my prayer, Fair, Wise and Strong Heavenly Governor, Archangel Michael, do not leave it without your attention. With your power, protect me, a sinner and unworthy, from visible enemies, do not allow me to stray from the path of the righteous and break the commandments of God. Honor me to appear shamelessly before the Lord at the hour of the righteous and terrible Judgment. Oh, Holy Archangel Michael, pray for my intercession, grant me the honor in the future to glorify with you the Holy Name of our Lord. Amen".

Orthodox prayers for repentance, for repentance of sins

Weep for my nakedness, my beloved brothers. I angered Christ with my vicious life. He created me and gave me freedom, but I repaid Him with evil. The Lord created me perfect and made me an instrument of His glory, so that I would serve Him and sanctify His Name. But I, unfortunate one, made my members instruments of sin and committed unrighteousness with them. Woe is me, for He will judge me! I relentlessly beg You, my Savior, cover me with Your wings and do not reveal my defilements at Your great judgment, so that I may glorify Your goodness. The evil deeds that I have done before the Lord separate me from all the saints. Now grief befalls me, which is what I deserve. If I had labored with them, then, like them, I would have been glorified. But I was relaxed and served my passions, and therefore I do not belong to the host of victors, but became the heir of Gehenna. I persistently pray to You, the Victor pierced by nails on the Cross, my Savior, to turn Your eyes away from my wickedness, and with Your sufferings heal my ulcers, so that I may glorify Your goodness.

Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God. I sincerely repent to you and ask for your generous forgiveness. Forgive me all my sins through oblivion, swearing, abuse, insults to my neighbor and cleanse my soul from sinful thoughts. Protect me from the deeds of unrighteousness and do not torment me with too difficult trials. May your will be done now, and forever, and forever and ever. Amen.

What prayer of repentance should a believer read?

The Christian prayer of repentance for sins should resound in a person throughout his life. Since the first people created by God sinned by violating the one and only commandment given to them by God, the prayer of repentance has become the main one for a believer. We all bear a heavy burden of both large and small sins, under the weight of which we move further and further away from God. After the commission of original sin by our forefathers Adam and Eve, people lost the opportunity to live holy. Sin overwhelms human nature, and we are unable to resist it.

Therefore, daily saying a prayer of repentance to the Lord Jesus Christ should become the norm for every believer. This repentance should not be feigned, theatrical, and should not be expressed in sprinkling the head with ashes or demonstrative bows to the ground in the middle of the temple. The Holy Fathers teach us that a special prayer of repentance should always sound in the heart, even if it is not visible outwardly.

When to read the Orthodox prayer of repentance and repentance?

The Orthodox Church helps us, spinning in the whirlpool of worldly life, to remember the repentant prayer to Jesus Christ by establishing four long fasts: Great Lent, before the feast of the holy supreme apostles Peter and Paul, Dormition and Nativity. In addition to abstaining from food, these days believers are encouraged to pay more attention to spiritual life, pray, try to attend church, confess and receive communion.

Prayers of repentance for sins are heard especially often during Lent. Many priests write that confession and repentance should not be confused: repentance is an internal state, and confession is the sacrament of remission of sins, witnessed by a priest. You should come to confession having realized your sins, sincerely wanting to get rid of them, and, most importantly, not repeat them.

Before confession, the priest reads a special repentant prayer to God, which all those confessing must hear, so you need to find out in the church what time confession begins and come to it in advance.

The most powerful prayers of repentance for Orthodox believers

The most famous prayer of repentance, which most people say from time to time, often without even suspecting that these words are a prayer: “Lord, have mercy!” This prayer is most often heard during services, sometimes it is repeated 40 or more times. Other well-known prayers of repentance that anyone can learn and repeat silently to themselves: the Jesus Prayer, the publican’s prayer, the initial prayer.

The 50th psalm of King David, “Have mercy on me, O God, according to Thy great mercy,” is considered a very powerful prayer of repentance in Orthodoxy. There are other prayers of repentance before God, with the help of which we can testify to God the awareness of our sins.

Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the Living God, Creator of heaven and earth, Savior of the world! Behold, unworthy and most sinful of all, humbly bowing the knee of my heart before the glory of Thy Majesty, I sing the Cross and Thy suffering, and I offer thanks to Thee, the King of all and God, for Thou hast deigned to bear all the labors and all troubles, misfortunes and torments, as Man to bear, so that in all our sorrows, needs and embitterments you will be a compassionate Helper and Savior. We know, Omnipotent Master, that all this was not needed by You, but for the sake of human salvation - so that You may redeem us all from the fierce work of the enemy, You endured the Cross and suffering. What then shall I repay to You, O Lover of Mankind, for all those who have suffered for the sake of me, a sinner? We do not know: for soul and body and all that is good are from You, and all that is mine is Your essence, and I am Yours. I hope in Thy innumerable mercy, O Blessed Lord, I sing Thy ineffable long-suffering, I magnify Thy inscrutable exhaustion, I glorify Thy immeasurable mercy, I worship Thy Most Pure Passion, and lovingly kissing Thy wounds, I cry: have mercy on me, a sinner, and make me not barren. I have Your Holy Cross within me, but may I partake of Your Passion here with faith, and be worthy to see the glory of Your Kingdom in heaven. Amen.

Orthodox text of the prayer of repentance for sins to the Lord God

To You, Lord, the only Good and Unmemorable Evil One, I confess my sins; I fall down to you, crying out, unworthy: I have sinned, O Lord, I have sinned, and I am not worthy to look up to the heights of heaven because of the multitude of my iniquities. But, my Lord, Lord, grant me tears of compunction, the only Blessed and Merciful One, as I beg you with them to be cleansed before the end from all sin: it is a scary and menacing place for the imam to pass through, their bodies separated, and a multitude of dark and inhuman demons will hide me, and accompany no one to help or deliver. Thus I bow down to Your goodness, do not betray me to those who offend me, below let my enemies boast about me, Good Lord, below let them say: you have come into our hands and you have been betrayed to us. Neither, Lord, do not forget Your compassions and do not reward me for my iniquity, and do not turn Your face away from me; but You, Lord, punish me, both with mercy and generosity, but let my enemy not rejoice over me, but extinguish his reproaches against me and abolish all his actions. And give me a reproachful path to You, O Good Lord, and having sinned, I did not resort to another doctor and did not stretch out my hands to a foreign god. Do not therefore reject my prayer, but hear me with Your goodness and strengthen my heart with Your fear; and may Your grace be upon me, O Lord, like fire that consumes unclean thoughts within me. For you are, Lord, light more than any light, joy more than any joy, peace more than any peace, true life and salvation that endures forever and ever. Amen.

Such words are called prayer. The main appeal is a prayer to the Lord for forgiveness - atonement for sin before another person, cultivating the power of forgiveness.

To atone for your sins, it is important to visit the temple of the Lord. Attend Divine Services. But, the most important thing is to really want to receive the condescension of grace from the Almighty in the form of forgiveness of sins. The Lord God forgives everyone and absolves them of their sins, but only to those who show him their unshakable desire to receive forgiveness, all-consuming faith and the absence of evil thoughts.

Prayer for forgiveness of sins

During his stay on planet Earth, a person commits a large number of sins every day based on various circumstances and reasons, the main ones being weakness, the inability to subordinate his willpower in order to resist the many temptations that surround us.

Everyone knows the teaching of Jesus Christ: “From the heart come evil plans and defile a person.” It is in this way that sinful thoughts are born in a person’s subconscious, which flow into sinful actions. We should not forget that every sin originates only from “evil thoughts.”

Prayer for forgiveness of sins is a very powerful prayer

One of the common ways to atone for sins is to give alms and donations to those who need it more than you. It is through this act that a person can express his compassion for the poor and mercy for his neighbor.

Another way that will help free the soul from sin is a prayer for the remission of sins, which comes from the heart itself, about sincere repentance, about forgiveness of committed sins: “And the prayer of faith will heal the sick person, and the Lord will raise him up; and if he has committed sins, they will be forgiven and atonement for him” (James 5:15).

In the Orthodox world there is a miraculous icon of the Mother of God “Softening Evil Hearts” (otherwise known as “Seven Arrows”). Since ancient times, in front of this icon, Christian believers have asked for forgiveness of sinful acts and reconciliation of warring parties.

Among Orthodox believers, 3 prayers for forgiveness of sins are common:

Prayer of repentance and forgiveness

“In the hand of Your great mercy, O my God, I entrust my soul and body, my feelings and words, my deeds and all my movements of body and soul. My entry and exit, my faith and life, the course and end of my life, the day and hour of my breathing, my repose, the repose of my soul and body. But You, O Most Merciful God, invincible to the sins of the whole world, Goodness, Gentle Lord, accept me, more than all sinners, in the hand of Your protection and deliver me from all evil, cleanse my many iniquities, grant correction to my evil and cursed life and from those to come. Always delight me in the fall of cruel sins, and in no way, when I anger Your love for mankind, cover my weakness from demons, passions and evil people. Forbid the enemy, visible and invisible, guiding me along the saved path, bring me to You, my refuge and my desire. Grant me a Christian death, unashamed, peaceful, keep me from the airy spirits of malice, at Your Last Judgment be merciful to Your servant and number me at the right hand of Your blessed sheep, and with them I will glorify You, my Creator forever. Amen".

Prayer for forgiveness of grievances

“Lord, You see my weakness, grant me correction and make me worthy to love you with all my soul and thoughts, and grant me Your grace, grant me the zeal to perform services, offer my unworthy prayer and thank You for everything.”

Forgiveness from God

“Lord my God, You know what is saving for me, help me; and do not allow me to sin before You and perish in my sins, for I am sinful and weak; do not betray me to my enemies, for I have come running to You, deliver me, O Lord, for You are my strength and my hope, and to You be glory and thanksgiving forever. Amen".

The power of turning to the Almighty

A person’s ability to forgive and ask for forgiveness is the ability of a strong and merciful person, because the Lord God performed a majestic act of forgiveness, He not only forgave all people who sinned, but was also crucified for human sins on the cross.

Prayer for the forgiveness of sins to the Lord can help a person achieve the long-awaited liberation from sin. Its strength lies in the fact that the person asking the Almighty already sincerely repents and wants to atone for his guilt. While praying for the forgiveness of his sins, he realized:

• that he committed a sin
• was able to admit his guilt,
• I realized that I did wrong
• and decided not to repeat it again.

The asking person's faith in His mercy can lead to forgiveness.

Based on this, a spiritual prayer for sinful forgiveness is the sinner’s repentance for his deed, since one who cannot understand the gravity of what he has done will not turn to the Almighty with prayer.

By paying attention to his mistakes and then turning to the Son of God, the sinner is obliged to show his sincere repentance through good deeds. In this case, “he who serves God will certainly be accepted, and his prayer will reach the very clouds” (Sir.35:16).

God's forgiveness for sins

Over the course of human existence, prayer has become necessary to receive divine grace, after which a person’s character completely changes: he becomes rich in soul, mentally strong, persistent, courageous, and sinful thoughts leave his head forever.

When changes occur in a person’s inner world, he can: become better for those around him,

• can make the people around him kinder,
• show what it means to do reasonable things,
• tell about the hidden nature of the origin of evil and good,
• prevent another from committing a sinful act.

The Mother of God, Theotokos, also helps in the atonement of sins - he hears all the prayers addressed to her and conveys them to the Lord, thereby begging forgiveness together with the one asking.

You can turn to the saints of God and the great martyrs with a prayer for forgiveness. Forgiveness of sins must not only be asked for, it must be prayed for for a long time: the more serious the sin, the more time it will take. But rest assured, your time will not be wasted. After all, the descent of God’s grace onto a person is the greatest gift from God.

How to get forgiveness:

1. Regularly visit an Orthodox church;
2. Take part in Divine Services;
3. Address prayer to the Lord at home;
4. Live with righteous views and pure thoughts;
5. Do not commit sinful acts in the future.

Prayer for the forgiveness of sins, a kind of assistant, an irreplaceable ally of every person. A forgiving, generous person is truly happy. After all, when there is peace in the soul, then the reality around us is transformed for the better.

May the Lord protect you!

Listen to the daily prayer for forgiveness of sin on YouTube, subscribe to the channel.

Anyone who has at least once apologized for deliberately or unintentionally causing harm or pain, and received forgiveness, knows that the feeling of relief that replaces the torment of conscience cannot be compared with anything.

This is one of the forms of true happiness that colors the days with sunshine and removes the heaviest clouds from the horizon.

But the forgiveness that we ask from the Lord for our actions is capable of more. Thanks to prayer for the forgiveness of sins, you can not only remove a heavy burden from your soul, but also see the path along which you should go further so that life brings joy and is full of peace.

Prayer to the Lord God for forgiveness of sins

Prayers for the remission of sins can rightfully be called miraculous and healing.

In the process of turning to God, we completely abstract ourselves from the bustle of life, and all we want is the generosity of our Father, and his forgiveness for our actions, thoughts and intentions, which are caused by weakness of spirit and inability to resist life’s temptations.

Before you begin to pray, you should get rid of all distracting thoughts and create the right mood. The main thing is to be honest with yourself and sincerely repent for intentional and unintentional acts that burden the soul with sins.

Such an appeal to the Lord, performed regularly, carries with it purification - when finishing it, a person feels the enlightenment of consciousness. This is repentance.

Prayer to the Lord God

“Lord my God, You know what is saving for me, help me; and do not allow me to sin before You and perish in my sins, for I am sinful and weak; do not betray me to my enemies, for I have come running to You, deliver me, O Lord, for You are my strength and my hope, and to You be glory and thanksgiving forever. Amen".

Be sincere in your appeal to God and do not forget: it does not matter whether you actually did something bad or just wanted to do it, but abandoned the wrong action.

There is no particular difference between the desire to sin and the committed offense - any unrighteous action begins with an unrighteous intention.

How to pray for forgiveness of sins

When we turn to God, we turn to the one who sacrificed himself for the remission of our sins and was crucified on the cross for this.

The power of his forgiveness and mercy cannot be measured, therefore, at any time - the happiest and the hardest - we offer our prayers to him, since no one else is able to cleanse us of filth and make our gaze pure and unclouded by temptations.

The following prayer is one of the most powerful. Read it every time you feel the need or when temptations and doubts begin to haunt you.

Prayer to Jesus

“In the hand of Your great mercy, O my God, I entrust my soul and body, my feelings and words, my deeds and all my movements of body and soul. My entry and exit, my faith and life, the course and end of my life, the day and hour of my breathing, my repose, the repose of my soul and body. But You, O Most Merciful God, invincible to the sins of the whole world, Goodness, Gentle Lord, accept me, more than all sinners, in the hand of Your protection and deliver me from all evil, cleanse my many iniquities, grant correction to my evil and cursed life and from those to come. Always delight me in the fall of cruel sins, and in no way, when I anger Your love for mankind, cover my weakness from demons, passions and evil people. Forbid the enemy, visible and invisible, guiding me along the saved path, bring me to You, my refuge and my desire. Grant me a Christian death, unashamed, peaceful, keep me from the airy spirits of malice, at Your Last Judgment be merciful to Your servant and number me at the right hand of Your blessed sheep, and with them I will glorify You, my Creator forever. Amen".

A person who has received forgiveness is one of the happiest people on earth. His soul is filled with peace and tranquility, his thoughts acquire purity and coherence, and he himself finds agreement with himself.

This helps not to stray from the path of life even when a person is surrounded by temptations, and the acquired generosity and mercy towards others gives him strength and courage.

Prayer for the forgiveness of sins is a very powerful, but not the only means to remove the burden from the soul and undergo a kind of cleansing. The main message conveyed by these special words can also be realized through everyday actions. They should be aimed at showing mercy to one's neighbor and getting rid of pride, which often becomes an accompaniment of caring for material things.

What else needs to be repented about:

Such activities could include visits to nursing homes, where you will help care for people who are already completing their earthly journey. Or take part in collecting donations for the poor and sick who need your help as much as God's.

But, most importantly, do not treat prayer for the forgiveness of sins as some kind of “vaccination” that will make you sinless and invulnerable in the face of temptations for some time.

Turning to the Lord for forgiveness means making a promise to him to continue to monitor your own thoughts and actions, which determine the purity of your soul.

Prayer of repentance

Weaken, forgive, forgive, O God, our sins, voluntary and involuntary, even in word and in deed, even in knowledge and ignorance, even in days and nights, even in mind and in thought: forgive us all, for you are Good and Lover of Mankind .

To the chosen Voivode, victorious, as having been delivered from the evil, let us write thanks to Thy servants, the Mother of God: but as having an invincible power, free us from all troubles, let us call Thee: Rejoice, unmarried Bride.

Glorious Ever-Virgin, Mother of Christ God, bring our prayer to Thy Son and our God, that through Thee our souls may be saved.

I place all my trust in You, Mother of God, keep me under Your roof.

Enlighten my eyes, O Christ God, so that not when I fall asleep into death, and not when my enemy says: “Let us be strong against him.”

Be the protector of my soul, O God, as I walk in the midst of many snares: deliver me from them and save me, O Blessed One, as a Lover of Mankind.

My hope is the Father, my refuge is the Son, my protection is the Holy Spirit: Holy Trinity, glory to Thee.

It is worthy to eat... The most honest cherub... and so on. (see page 9).

When you go to bed, mark yourself with a cross and say:

May God rise again, and may His enemies be scattered, and may those who hate Him flee from His presence. As smoke disappears, let them disappear; As wax melts in the face of fire, so let demons perish from the face of those who love God and who signify themselves with the sign of the cross and say in joy: Rejoice, most honorable and life-giving of the Cross of the Lord, who drives out demons by the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, who was cast down on you, who descended into hell and trampled upon the power of the devil. and gave us to you, Your honorable cross, to drive away every adversary. Oh, most honorable and life-giving cross of the Lord! help me with the Holy Virgin Mary and with all the saints forever. Amen.

Or: Protect me, Lord, by the power of your honorable and life-giving Cross, and save me from all evil.

When you go to sleep, say:

In Your hands, Lord Jesus Christ, my God, I commend my spirit; You bless me, you have mercy on me and grant me eternal life. Amen.
