Follow the steps given below:

  1. Visit your Facebook Timeline:

  2. Click on "Activity Log". Here is a screenshot to make it easier for you to find it:

  1. Scroll down to your heart's content until you think that you have scrolled down enough.

  2. Press Ctrl + F on your Keyboard.

  3. Type the keyword you want to search for.

P.S: The activity log is only available with Timeline and not otherwise. If you no longer have access to the posts of the particular group (group admin blocked you from group; it's a closed group and you are no longer a member); then you will not be able to view/delete the comment.

That’s not going to work; the content of the page is dynamically loaded, so even if you search the page with Ctrl+F, if it’s not yet loaded, you won’t find it. – Alex May 26 '12 at 9:13
@Alex That why I said, "Scroll Down to your Heart's Content until you think that you have scrolled down enough." – user221287 May 26 '12 at 9:17
