Personal Prayer
Praise God as the one who can wash every part of your life clean from the stain of sin. Thank him for offering his only Son as a sacrifice for you (Jn. 3:16). Confess those times when you have listened to Satan’s accusations of guilt even after confessing your sin to God. Commit yourself to receiving God’s forgiveness and acceptance of you with a free and joyful heart. Ask the Lord to help you see yourself through his eyes—clean, holy, and dearly loved (Eph. 1:3-8).

For Your Family and Friends
Pray that those in your circle of relatives or friends who have not yet found cleansing for their sin may do so this year.

For the Church
Pray that the spirit of worship in your congregation is not hindered by some members’ refusal to forgive others or themselves (Eph. 4:32).

For the Kingdom
Pray that those involved in fighting, racial conflict, or persecution may find God’s forgiveness and cleansing and offer it to their enemies.

For People to Know Jesus
Pray that your love and forgiveness for your critics and opponents will attract them to the same God that you love and serve (Lk. 6:27-29, 35-36)
