Salvation Prayer
Father in Heaven, thankyou for sending Your son, Jesus, to die on the cross to pay for my sins. I can never thankyou enough for your grace, mercy and love. Please lead and direct me in the way you have for me to go come into my heart and life as my personal Savior. I want to be your humble servant, Amen.
Dear God, I am a sinner and need your forgiveness. I believe that Jesus Christ shed His precious blood and died for my sin. I am willing to change and turn from my sin. I now invite Jesus Christ to come into my heart and life as my personal Savior.
The Bible says there is one way to Heaven. Jesus said: "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes unto the Father but by me." (John 14:6) This one way is to accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and savior and follow God's plans for our life which are laid out in the Bible.
Good works cannot save you. Faith in Jesus alone can save you.
For by grace you are saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9)
How should you accept Christ as your Savior ? Asking a pastor, a Christian religious leader, a missionary, or even someone who is Christian may also be very helpful to you in order to achieve your goal in getting introduced to Jesus.
The ABC's of salvation prayer
Admit you are a sinner
Believe that you have sinned against God , admit that you are a sinner and that you need God's help and that Jesus can save you. Because we are all born sinful, we are unable in our own strength and morality, to please a perfect God. Sin is any act that displeases God, as sin separates us from God, who is perfect, such that the payment we are to pay for sin is spiritual death permanent separation from God. Spiritual Death entered into the world when Adam sinned.
"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;" (Romans 3:23)
"Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:" (Romans 5:12)
"If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us." (1 John 1:10)
"Ask God's forgiveness and repend of your sins. "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." Romans 10:13
Be willing to change your mind and turn from your sin (repent).
Jesus said: "I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish." (Luke 13:5)
Believe in Jesus
Put your trust in Him as your only hope of salvation.
"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whomever believes in Him shall not perish bu have eternal life." John 3:16
But God commends his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners. Christ died for us. Romans 5:8Become a child of God by recieving Christ.
"To all who received Him,to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God." John 1:12Jesus died to pay for the sins of man. However, He rose again, conquering death and making it possible to be saved.
Confess Jesus is your Lord
If you declare with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord" and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved
Romans 10:9-10
Talk to God in your own words. There is no protocol to follow in order to talk to God. God listens to your prayers even if you do not say them. God likes to hear you seek His help and His forgiveness.
