You simply tell God you are a sinner, and that you want to invite Him into your heart. Ask Him to forgive you for your sins and tell Him you wish to sin no more. Its not really how you ask Him, just ask. He will help you. If it does't come out exactly right, He understands. You then need to follow-up by reading His Word.

You do not have to say anything specific. Talk to Christ Jesus as you would talk to a close friend. Try not to think about what you are going to say, just open your mouth and let the words come out. Pray from your heart and not from your brain.
If you have a specific sin you want to confess, start out first by simply praising God for who and what He is. Thank Him for all His blessings in your life and then ask Him to forgive you for any and all sin, known to you, or unknown to you. Ask Him to help you in specific areas where you are struggling or feeling guilty.
Remember, God wants to hear your heart. God does not want you to repeat the same words over and over again.
Pray from your heart, and no matter what the words you say, God will understand your meaning.
God Bless You......Peace.

Why pray to something that does not exist, and that has no influence, or impact on your life, because it can not possibly be real?? Forget that brainwashing, and live life to the fullest, do what you want. Just forget, making mistakes is a natural part of life...we are human.

Heavenly Father, I know that I'm a sinner. I repent of the sin in my life. Lord, I know that you died on the cross to pay the penalty for sin. I believe you paid for my sin too. Lord, please take charge of my life. Come and live in my heart, Lord, I open my heart to you now. I believe you will come in and stay with me. Make me your follower and keep me in your will Lord. Thank you for saving me. In Jesus name, Amen.
If you said this prayer the next step is to be baptized in the name of Jesus. His name is the name above every name and if you can't find anyone to baptize you in his name then you can baptize yourself. It's an answer to a good conscience, because he commanded for us to be baptized, and those who love him will keep his commandments.
It's important to study the bible everyday. The King James bible is the only authorized version. Every day, and pray without ceasing.

"The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith,
Behold The Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the
world." new testament, John 1:29.
"God be merciful to me, a sinner. new testament Luke 18.
"For thy name's sake, O Lord, pardon mine iniquity; for it is
great." old testament, Psalm 25: 11.
"And he cried, saying, Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy
on me." new testament, Luke 18:38.
Prayer doesn't take sin away. Jesus does.
Prayer doesn't save. Jesus does. Jesus converts a sinner from the error of his ways. He promised to blot out our sins.
"And their sins, and iniquities will I remember no more."
new testament, Hebrews 10:17.

You can't get rid of your sins. But you can pay back the people you harmed, or you can resolve to help three people for every person you harmed.
Feel free to help more if you like.

Well you know what. You shouldnt be ashamed of what you have done, you dont need to pray to some little statue just becuase you did something wrong, we have free will do what you will and take the responsibilty of doing it.
Dont live your life feeling guilty for every little thing you do. Its human instinct to "sin" you cant deny yourself earthly pleasure

Truly it don't matter if you say it perfectly, Just use the words from your heart with sincerity, Heart felt prayers are usually the best, with compassion, sincere, from the heart. God knows when your sincere. It's better if you use your words, trust him, give it a chance... God bless you!
