Could be your plugs or a sensor. It could be a number of things. I'd say check the ignition system(plugs, wires, distributor, rotor, starter, and coil) and see if anything needs replacing. Did you do anything to your car? Like cleaning the engine bay, or installing anything?

Might be the wires. My grandfather had a misfire in his old Lincoln and that ended up being the reason. Not the same car but I'm sure the problem is common. You can always go to an auto store and ask them to take a look at your wires. They can most likely tell you if you need them replaced or not. Also look for any wear and tear on the plugs or wires.

And FYI a small wire brush works good to clean the plugs if you need to do that.
