Father God, I specifically repent of… (name it here quietly to the Lord). I repent of using my body or allowing my body to be used in this way, and I renounce the spirits behind these acts.
Forgive me Lord, cleanse me and destroy every bondage in my life as a result of these sins. I renounce every lie of the enemy telling me that I am dirty or not acceptable because of my past sexual experiences.
I take authority over the spirits behind sexual sin, and I break their hold over my life right now. I also take authority over any generational sin in Jesus’ Name. Thank you Lord Jesus that you cleanse me, that you fully accept me and love me unconditionally.
I now present my body to you as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to you. Please come and fill me afresh with your Holy Spirit, make me brand new in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
