"For God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.” John 3:16, New Living Translation.
Jesus, the Way, the Truth, the Life, is now knocking at the door of your heart, asking to be invited in and become your friend. Will you open and invite Him in? Then, from your heart, say this prayer.
“My Father in heaven, I know that I have broken your laws and my sins have separated me from you. I am truly sorry, and now I want to turn away from my past sinful life toward you. Please forgive me, and help me avoid sinning again. I believe that your son, Jesus Christ died for my sins, was resurrected from the dead, is alive, and hears my prayer. I invite Jesus to become the Lord of my life, to rule and reign in my heart from this day forward. Please send your Holy Spirit to help me obey You, and to do Your will for the rest of my life. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.”
What do you do now? Where do you go from here? Consider, and follow these steps;
- Tell someone else about your new personal relationship with, and faith in Christ, our Savior.
- Get baptized as commanded by Christ, our Lord.
- Spend time with God each day. It does not have to be a long period of time. Just develop the daily habit of praying to Him and reading His Word. Ask God to increase your faith and your understanding of the Bible.
- Seek fellowship with other followers of Jesus. Develop a group of believing friends to answer your questions and support you.
- Find a local church where you can worship God.
