What should a believer who has fallen into adultery do to be saved again. Will the LORD show mercy and forgives his sins?

Thank you.

King David was called a man after GOD's heart, GOD loved & honored King David even after his adultery & muderous cover-up, attempt. 2Samuel 11, 1Kings 11:4, Acts 13:22,

Psalms 38, Psalms 40, Psalms 51, David sought after GOD

However, David didn't get away with anything, without consequences: 2Samuel 12, because of the severity of his sin as stated by Nathan in 2Samuel 12, the "sword did not depart" from his house._._

The punishment for adultery Old Testament was death 2Samuel 12:13, but GOD spared David's life

GOD doesn't take delight in death but that everyone should turn from unrighteousness! Ezekiel 33:11, Ezekiel 18:32, 1John 1:9,

Malachi 2:13-16, Proverbs 5,

Hopefully these are helpful

Repentance is the way to start for God has said. in proverbs 28:13

13Whoever conceals their sins does not prosper,

but the one who confesses and renounces them finds mercy.

You also need to take up the whole armor of God. for this way by his word, you will be able to with stand when your being tempted.

Remember his words is a light to our path and God has said if you obey and incline to his word. the word will keep you from stumbling.

This is done by praying without ceasing by reading his word and by fasting humbling yourself through fasting.

Ephesians 6:13-24

13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

Lastly God is merciful, and he cares for you. Remember Jesus took your place at the cross so that you might receive his righteousness.

2 Corinthians 5:21

For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

So don't give up but kneel down and call to HIM and repent your sins for He who began a good work in you will see it to completion.

Sin has no dominion over you. amen

You must admit your sin . You didn't 'fall' into adultery , you commited it . I'm assuming it's you yourself , so have you confessed to your wife ? Are you genuinely sorry that you deliberately and knowingly sinned against God ? If the answer is 'yes' , then you may be forgiven , all things are possible with God so you must always have hope and talk to Him about it . Remember , He knows your heart .
