David asks God to have mercy on him according to His loving - kindness, blot out his sins according to His tender mercies, Wash him thoroughly from his iniquity, and cleanse him from his sins. He acknowledged that he had sinned before God, the blameless judge, He was aware that he was a sinner from birth and requested to be purged, made clean and washed, so that he would have joy and gladness.
He asked God to grant him a new heart, renew a steadfast spirit in him, not ban him from His presence, and not remove Hsy Holy Spirit from him. He prayed for a restoration of his Joy of salvation, and for him to reach sinners God's ways. ( Psalm 51:1-13 ).
How do you pray when you offended God? You can either humble yourself and ask God to forgive you, with a repented heart, or you can gloss over the sin and move on to other aspects of prayer like thanksgiving, adoration, and supplication. Prai and confess your sin from a repented heart is very important to receiving answered prayers ( 1 John 1:8-10 ). Christ taught His disciples to confess their sins while praying ( Matthew 6:12 ) . Examine your llife , repent of any sin and pray for God's mercies.
