Why God is so important to repentance?Because it can only lead to a reduction in human sinfulness of their lives.It reconciles man with God, it indicates a change of spirit and desire to live not as in the past.Confessions is designed for a person to be able to start all over again as if from scratch.Rehearsal confession - a prayer of repentance.What it is?
Psalm unfortunate king
There is no single formula or the most important of repentance.In fact, turning to the Lord may have very different forms, including prayer in their own words and requests to forgive the sinner or a sinner.However, the most ancient prayer of repentance in the Bible - it is the 50th Psalm of David, king of the Jews which asks forgiveness for the terrible sin of murder, committed under the influence of envy and lust.It does not describe exactly what David was guilty, why Psalm 50 is a universal formula of repentance.He will be in tune with your trouble.In his prayer rule I do not usually read in the evening and morning.But if you feel that you have conceded sinful inclination, and you find it difficult to fight, you can learn it by heart and read at any time.Another good thing to remember the prayer "Let God", it helps not to sin, if you read it when you only want to commit a sin.
Why Orthodox Greeks were ambassadors
general penitential spirit are almost all the prayers from the prayer book.Orthodox people are always critical of himself and is able to see their mistakes.True believers of religions know how to be sincere diplomacy, though it seems paradoxical statement.However, the fact is that in the Ottoman Empire ambassadors and emissaries often prescribe it Orthodox Christians.They knew how to build positive relationships, in large part because they saw their errors.And read every day the prayer of repentance is not allowed to forget about their own imperfections.However, usually she was not alone.
Invoking the Holy Spirit In the evening
rule over purely penitential complaints than in the morning.In the third prayer to the Holy Spirit to the believer himself checks on compliance with very high moral standards.For example, even upset the other person - it is a serious moral disorder.Wink anger - meant to provoke a negative reaction from the other person that is guilty of an innocent person to do.Of course, a manifestation of the response of anger - not only your responsibility, but before God at the Judgment will be responsible for himself and not for "that guy."Therefore provoke - means "slander anger."The rest of the sins of this prayer become more apparent.For example, to lie, to sleep more measures to incite another person to inappropriate behavior, think about the indecent (if a thought came to mind, but you do not focus on it, it is not considered).In the same prayer mentioned envy, schadenfreude, drinking, overeating.
However, the most important Christian prayer of repentance - daily confession of sins.It mentions the most common mistakes, but if necessary, this list can and should complement their own sins.To do this, you can use the Orthodox ascetic literature.And remember that the Lord forgives only those who repent, however, better than the innocence of remorse.
