Plead with God His Goodness and Readiness to Forgive Sin

Petition 3.2 | KJV

For the encouraging of my faith and the exciting of my fervency in this petition for the pardon of sin, I may plead with God,

The infinite goodness of his nature, his readiness to forgive sin, and his glorying in it.

Thou, Lord, art good and ready to forgive and rich in mercy to all them that call upon thee. Psalm 86:5(KJV) Thou art a God full of compassion and gracious, long-suffering and plenteous in mercy and truth. Psalm 86:15(KJV)

Thou art a God of pardon, merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, Nehemiah 9:17(KJV) that dost not always chide nor keep thine anger for ever. Psalm 103:9(KJV)

Thou, even thou, art he that blottest out my transgressions for thine own sake, and wilt not remember my sins, which I am here to put thee in remembrance of, to plead with thee, and to declare, that I may be justified. Isaiah 43:25-26(KJV)

And now, I beseech thee, let the power of my Lord be great, according as thou hast spoken, saying, The Lord is long-suffering and of great mercy, forgiving iniquity and transgression. Pardon, I beseech thee, the iniquity of thy people according unto the greatness of thy mercy: and as thou hast forgiven even until now. Numbers 14:17-19(KJV)

For who is a God like unto thee, that pardonest iniquity and passest by the transgression of the remnant of thine heritage? Who retainest not thine anger for ever, because thou delightest in mercy? O that thou wouldest have compassion upon me and subdue my iniquities and cast all my sins into the depths of the sea. Micah 7:18-19(KJV)

Petition 3.2 | ESV

For the encouraging of our faith and the exciting of our fervency in this petition for the pardon of sin, we may plead with God:

The infinite goodness of his nature, his readiness to forgive sin, and his glorying in it.

You, Lord, are good and forgiving, abounding in steadfast love to all who call upon you. Psalm 86:5(ESV) You are a God gracious and full of compassion, longsuffering and plenteous in mercy and truth. Psalm 86:15(KJV)

You are a God ready to forgive, merciful, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love, Nehemiah 9:17(ESV) who does not always chide nor keep his anger forever. Psalm 103:9(ESV)

You, you are he who blots out my transgressions for your own sake, and will not remember my sins, which I am here to put you in remembrance of and to declare, in order to plead for mercy in Christ. Isaiah 43:25-26(KJV)

And now, please let the power of the Lord be great as you have promised, saying, “The LORD is slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love, forgiving iniquity and transgression.” Please pardon my iniquity and the iniquity of your people, according to the greatness of your steadfast love, just as you have forgiven us even until now. Numbers 14:17-19(ESV)

For who is a God like you, pardoning iniquity and passing over transgression for the remnant of your inheritance? You do not retain your anger forever, because you delight in steadfast love. O that you would have compassion upon me and tread my iniquities underfoot and cast all my sins into the depths of the sea. Micah 7:18-19(ESV)

Petition 3.0 | NASB

Of the Third Part of Prayer, which is Petition and Supplication for the Good Things which I Stand in Need of.

Having opened the wounds of sin, both the guilt of it and the power of it, and its remainders in us, we must next seek unto God for the remedy, for healing and help, for from him alone it is to be expected, and this also he will let us ask him to do for us. Ezekiel 36:37(NASB) And now we must affect our hearts with a deep sense of the need we have of those mercies which we pray for, that we are undone, forever undone, without them; and, with a high esteem and value for them, that we are happy, we are made forever, if we obtain them; that we may like Jacob wrestle with him in prayer, as for our lives and the lives of our souls. But we must not think in our prayers to prescribe to him or by our importunity to move him. He knows us better than we know ourselves and knows what he will do. John 6:6(NASB) But thus, we open our wants and desires, and then refer ourselves to his wisdom and goodness; and hereby we give honor to him as our Protector and Benefactor, and take the way which he himself has appointed, of fetching in mercy from him, and by faith plead his promise with him: And if we are sincere in this, we are, through his grace, qualified according to the tenor of the new covenant to receive his favors, and are to be assured that we do and shall receive them. Mark 11:24(NASB)

And now, Lord, for what do I wait? Truly my hope is in You. Deliver me from all my transgressions; make me not the reproach of the foolish. Psalm 39:7-8(NASB)

Lord, all my desire is before You, and my sighing is not hidden from You, Psalm 38:9(NASB) even the groanings too deep for words; for, He who searches the heart knows what the mind of the Spirit is. Romans 8:26-27(NASB)

I do not think that I will be heard for my many words, for my Father knows what I need before I ask Him; Matthew 6:7-8(NASB) but my Master has told me that whatever I ask the Father for in His name, He will give it to me. And He has said, “Ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be made full.” John 16:23-24(NASB)

And this is the confidence which I have before Him, that, if I ask anything according to His will, He hears me. And if I know that He hears me in whatever I ask, I know that I have the requests which I have asked from Him. John 5:14-15(NASB)
