47104 How to Experience God’s Forgiveness

God’s forgiveness will truly set you free. If you are seeking God’s forgiveness, the good news is that He has already forgiven you in Jesus Christ. To experience His forgiveness, you simply need to receive it according to His promise.

God promises that His forgiveness is yours from the moment you place your faith (trust) in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior and allow Him to transform you into the person He wants you to be.

Repentance is the act of receiving God’s forgiveness that is already granted to you. You can use the five prayers of repentance. Just like the prodigal son (Luke 15:11-24), your heavenly Father’s forgiveness is eagerly waiting with its arms wide open for you to return to Him (repentance).

You may be struggling with God’s forgiveness because you don’t feel you deserve it.

Nobody deserves God’s forgiveness. He forgives you not because you deserve it but because Jesus died on the cross to earn forgiveness for you. God forgives you because He loves you.

Forgiveness is an act of love. That is why the Lord commands us to forgive one another, just as God in Christ also forgave us (Ephesians 4:32).
