How and for what they ask for forgiveness from God? What prayers are being checked so that God forgive sins.

Even the most believer and the person entering the church daily during his life performs small or rather large acts of sinful content. The world around us is unfair, Alchen, built on egoism, lies, money and lust. In such conditions, it is difficult to remain righteous thoughts and deeds. But God is merciful, and He gives his children forgiveness. But how to ask him correctly? What to do and say?

How to ask and pray forgiveness from God?

The Bible says: “There is no righteous man on earth who would do good and would not sin” (Ekklesiast 7:20). This is probably true. Man, especially unbeliever, is weak. He lends itself to temptation and admits, if not sinful acts, then thoughts.

But there is salvation in God, and even for the most bad deeds and thoughts, he can forgive us.

The case, it would seem, remains small - ask for forgiveness. But is it so just to get God's forgiveness?

We are raising from the fall thanks to the sacrament of repentance (confession). But rarely, someone confesses weekly, and you don’t always want to wait to relieve soul.

You can always ask for forgiveness from God everywhere. The main thing is to believe that he is gracious and fertile.

Important: the first and most important step towards obtaining forgiveness in God is the awareness of his sinful deeds. It can be very difficult for us to admit that we are wrong. For a long time and stubbornly we prove to ourselves and others that we did everything right, or circumstances left us no choice. The recognition of their mistakes to himself, God and others is a strong, generous act.

If a person, without repenting, simply reads the prayer “for a checkmark”, intends to buy an indulgence in this way, he will not succeed.
God does not hear insincere requests.

The next step to obtaining forgiveness - be able to forgive yourself.
In the most famous, short, but such capacious prayer “Our Father” there are amazing words: “... and the rest of us to? Lviga on? Sha, I? The skin and we leave?
We can count on the fact that we will be forgiven by God only when we will not keep evil on our offenders, forgive them, even if they themselves do not ask us about it.

Important: the Savior said: “Farewell, and you will be forgiven” (Luke 6: 37).

• Praying for forgiveness, we must know what specifically we have committed, and ask God to forgive them.
• Yes, the Lord is all -seeing. But the phrase “I sin in everything” is unacceptable both in confession and during prayer.
• Specifying the action, inaction or the idea of \u200b\u200bsinful content, we do work on errors: Yes, this is wrong, bad, I repent, I will not allow this anymore.

But the place and time to pray, you do not need to choose. Of course, it is better to ask for forgiveness in the church or in front of the icons in the red corner.

But God will hear everywhere.

Important: in confession, the priest plays the role of an intermediary between a believer and the Lord. Praying for forgiveness, anywhere, independently, a person appeals to Christ, which means he believes in Him, accepts Him and relies on His will. But it was Jesus Christ who gave his life on the cross in order to atone for the Lord of the sins of all mankind.

• Forgiveness of sins You can’t buy or deserve it.
• But atone for your guilt Perhaps alms and donations, that is, help those who need more than us.
• About why alms It is considered one of the greatest virtues, how it contributes to the redemption of sins, can be read in the creations of St. John Chrysostom.
