right now |
Admit
to God that you are
a sinner and that
you are turning from
your sins. Believe
in Jesus and thank
Him for dying on the
cross and rising from
the dead to give you
eternal life. Commit
your life to Christ
by asking Him to come
into your life as
your Savior and Lord.
Start by praying this
prayer:
Oh Lord Jesus, I know
I am a sinner and
that my sin has kept
me from knowing you.
I believe You died
for my sin. I know
that by believing
in your death and
resurrection I can
have forgiveness and
eternal life. I want
to turn from my sin
and ask You to become
my Savior and Lord.
From this day on,
I will follow You
by living a life that
pleases You. Thank
you, Lord Jesus, for
saving me. Amen.
