Forgiveness is a powerful act that can change your life and the lives of others. It has been said that forgiveness is the fastest way to liberate yourself from negative emotions, but it’s not always an easy one. It can take time to process all the hurt and pain you’ve experienced at someone else’s hand, but there are many powerful prayers for forgiveness available if you’re ready to forgive others.
Powerful Prayers For The Forgiveness Of Others
1. Prayer for the Forgiveness Of Others
The Lord’s Prayer is a great example of the power of asking for forgiveness. When Jesus taught his disciples to pray, he started with this prayer:
“Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom comes, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.”
This was followed by words asking God to forgive them their sins and lead them not into temptation but deliver them from evil (and other similar requests).
We can use this model when we ask God to forgive our own sins and help us see what steps we need to take so that those around us can forgive us too!
2. Prayer to Forgive Offenses
- Prayer for the Forgiveness of Others
O Lord, I earnestly beseech thee to pardon me my sins and those of all who seek forgiveness through me. Amen.
- Prayer for the Forgiveness of Yourself
O God, I am heartily sorry for having offended thee, and I detest all my sins because of thy just punishments but most of all because they offend Thee, who art so good and deserving of all my love. I firmly resolve with the help of thy grace to confess my sins, to do penance, and change my life, amen.
3. Prayer for the Forgiveness of Others
Prayer is a way to connect with God. When you pray, you are acknowledging God’s presence in your life and asking for His help. The Bible tells us that God wants to hear from us and that when we talk to Him, He listens (1 John 5:14-15).
Prayer can help you let go of resentment toward others and forgive them for what they have done or said against you. The Bible says it is better for a person who has been hurt by others not to keep on hurting themselves by holding grudges or harboring resentments against other people (Proverbs 19:9). However, if you have not yet forgiven someone who has hurt you, pray this prayer asking God to help cleanse your heart so that He can fill it with love instead of bitterness toward another person. Praying this prayer will also give greater meaning to any good things that happen later in life because they happened after praying!
You may feel better knowing that forgiveness is possible even though some people may never change their ways and apologize for the wrongs they’ve done instead…
4. Prayer to Ask God’s Forgiveness
Dear God,
Please forgive me for my own sins. I have been guilty of pride and greed. I have taken advantage of others, lied to them, and made their lives miserable at times. Please help me to start making things right with these people so that your peace can return to their lives as well as mine. In Jesus’ name, we pray, amen!
5. Prayer for Forgiveness and Not Resentment
“Forgive as the Lord forgave you.”
Forgiveness is a powerful prayer. It helps you to let go of resentment and anger towards others, and it can help you forgive yourself. Forgiveness is also one of the most important parts of healing from trauma, whether that trauma has been caused by another person or by yourself.
It may seem impossible to forgive when someone has hurt you deeply or even killed your loved ones, but there are many different ways in which forgiveness can be given through prayer and meditation on scripture verses that teach forgiveness. Prayer for Forgiveness and Not Resentment can help guide you through this process if it feels challenging for you at first.

Closing
The forgiveness of others is a powerful prayer that all Christians should pray.
