Prayer based on Luke 17:4. Themes: Forgiveness, Repentance, Perseverance.

Dear Lord,

As I come before you today, I am reminded of your command to forgive those who sin against us. Help me to have a heart of forgiveness, even when it seems difficult or impossible.

If someone wrongs me seven times in a day and comes back to me with a repentant heart, give me the strength to forgive them. Help me to remember that just as you have forgiven me, I am called to forgive others.

May my heart be filled with your love and grace, so that I may extend that same love and grace to those around me. Thank you for your constant forgiveness and mercy towards me.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Verse: If he sins against you seven times in the day, and seven times returns, saying, ‘ I repent,’ you shall forgive him.”
Luke 17:4

This is a Command. The verse commands the reader to forgive someone who has sinned against them multiple times in a day and repents each time.
