Prayer of Confession

Holy God, we confess to you that we are habitual sinners, daily transgressing your commandments. We admit our struggle with temptation; our sinful affections are easily enticed, and we often lack the resolve to resist. Rather than seeking to mortify our sin, we attempt to keep it hidden from you and from others. Merciful Father, expose our folly and help us to turn to you in our need. Strengthen us by the power of your Holy Spirit, that we might flee temptation and hearken to your voice. Sanctify us by your Truth, and help us live according to your precepts. We pray these things in the name of Jesus, our great Savior. Amen.

The Gospel’s Assurance of Pardon: Psalm 130:7–8

O Israel, hope in the Lord! For with the Lord there is steadfast love, and with him is plentiful redemption. And he will redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
