There are many verses within the Bible Scriptures that can Point the way to a Sinners Repentance & Prayer�I have found only this one that incompasses it all & none more meaningful and heart felt than this prayer from King David�pay particular attention to verse 18�xo

Psalm 25 KJV

1~ Unto thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul.

2~ O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me.

3~ Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which transgress without cause.

4~ Shew me thy ways, O LORD; teach me thy paths.

5~ Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day.

6~ Remember, O LORD, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindnesses; for they have been ever of old.

7~ Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: according to thy mercy remember thou me for thy goodness' sake, O LORD.

8~ Good and upright is the LORD: therefore will he teach sinners in the way.

9~ The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way.

10~ All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.

11~ For thy name's sake, O LORD, pardon mine iniquity; for it is great.

12~ What man is he that feareth the LORD? him shall he teach in the way that he shall choose.

13~ His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth.

14~ The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.

15~ Mine eyes are ever toward the LORD; for he shall pluck my feet out of the net.

16~ Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; for I am desolate and afflicted.

17~ The troubles of my heart are enlarged: O bring thou me out of my distresses.

18~ Look upon mine affliction and my pain; and forgive all my sins.

19~ Consider mine enemies; for they are many; and they hate me with cruel hatred.

20~ O keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I put my trust in thee.

21~ Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee.

22~ Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles.

Hey Dennis:



Faith does not need emotion.

Faith entails understanding,knowledge,insight,experience,

trust.



Yet i do not need emotion for any of these.



Emotion might be nice,yet emotions can be distorted and manipulated,

Just look at those on the TV and radio.

These people know how to manipulate the masses.



Aloha

Hey Jude;Do't be afraid,hahahahahahaha.



Psalm 25:1-8

1~ Unto thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul.



2~ O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me.



3~ Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which transgress without cause.



4~ Shew me thy ways, O LORD; teach me thy paths.



5~ Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day.



6~ Remember, O LORD, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindnesses; for they have been ever of old.



7~ Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: according to thy mercy remember thou me for thy goodness' sake, O LORD.



8~ Good and upright is the LORD: therefore will he teach sinners in the way.



Verse 5,David is making a declaration as to YHWH being His Salvation.

David knew that forgiveness of his sins was not by sacrificing an animal.

David knew that forgiveness could only be by one who has the authority to forgive and the power to remove sin from His sight,and from the person.

YHWH is this person.



Throughout this psalm,David is recalling and declaring Who YHWH is and what He is like.

David knows YHWH's character,attitude and personality.



This s not the sinners prayer,but rather the prayer os someone who sins and trusts YHWH to forgive him.



Aloha
