St John of Kronstadt: Remember immediately Jesus Christ, and turn to Him for forgiveness of your sins...

Lessons by our Holy Fathers
The Devil takes an enormous part in the sins of men: this is why, in the prayers before confession, sinners are indulgently judged for their sins before the Lord as "tempted of the Devil."
Therefore, let no one consider himself cast away, even if he is a great sinner: your sins are greatly the fault of the Devil.
Remember immediately Jesus Christ, and turn to Him for forgiveness of your sins; He is "the Lamb of God, Which taketh away the sin of the world"; He is the Lamb of God in order to take upon Himself and cleanse us of our sins.
