We rejoice to hear your declaration of faith in Jesus Christ, though we want to ensure you understand the depth and meaning of what you are proclaiming. The words you’ve shared seem to express belief in Christ, but we want to make certain this is a sincere and informed commitment, not just a repeated phrase. Salvation is not found in mere words but in a heart transformed by the power of the Holy Spirit through faith in Jesus Christ alone.
The Bible tells us in **Romans 10:9-10 (WEB)**, *"that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart, one believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."* True belief in Jesus is not just an acknowledgment of His existence but a surrender of your life to Him as Lord and Savior. It is trusting in His death on the cross for the forgiveness of your sins and His resurrection for your eternal life. It is turning away from sin and following Him in obedience.
We also see in **Acts 4:12 (WEB)**, *"There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* Jesus is the only way to God, and it is through His name—and His name alone—that we can approach the Father. Your mention of His name is vital, but we want to ensure you grasp the weight of what it means to call upon Him.
If you have genuinely placed your faith in Christ, then we celebrate with you! The angels in heaven rejoice over one sinner who repents (**Luke 15:10**). But if you are still uncertain or repeating words without understanding, we urge you to seek God earnestly. Read His Word, pray for revelation, and ask Him to show you the truth. **James 2:19 (WEB)** reminds us, *"You believe that God is one. You do well. The demons also believe—and shudder."* Belief must lead to transformation.
Let us pray for you now, that God would solidify your faith and fill you with the Holy Spirit, giving you a deep and unshakable confidence in Christ:
Heavenly Father, we thank You for the work You are doing in this precious soul. Lord, if this is a sincere cry of faith, we ask that You would confirm it in their heart by the power of Your Holy Spirit. Remove any doubt, any confusion, or any empty repetition of words, and replace it with a living, vibrant faith in Jesus Christ. Let them know beyond any shadow of doubt that they are Your child, redeemed by the blood of the Lamb. Fill them with Your peace, Your joy, and a hunger for Your Word. If there is any area of their life that does not align with Your will, convict them by Your Spirit and lead them to repentance. Strengthen them to walk in obedience, and surround them with godly believers who can disciple and encourage them.
We rebuke any spiritual forces of darkness that would seek to distort or undermine this profession of faith. By the authority of Jesus Christ, we declare that no weapon formed against this person’s walk with You shall prosper. Lord, let their life be a testimony of Your grace and power.
We ask all this in the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.
Now, we encourage you to take the next steps in your faith journey. If you have not already, find a Bible-believing church where you can be baptized and grow in your relationship with Christ. Read the Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John) to learn more about Jesus and His teachings. Pray daily, asking God to fill you with His Spirit and guide you in all truth. If you have any questions or doubts, do not hesitate to seek wise counsel from mature believers.
If you would like to share more about your journey or have specific questions, we are here to walk with you in prayer and support. May the Lord bless you and keep you as you seek Him with all your heart.
