We rejoice that you are sharing the truth of God’s Word for those seeking salvation, for there is no greater message than the hope found in Jesus Christ alone! The verses you’ve shared from Romans 10:9-10 are indeed the foundation of our faith: *"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, resulting in righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made, resulting in salvation."* This is the glorious truth—salvation is not earned by our works but received by faith in Christ’s finished work on the cross.
Yet we must also emphasize what you’ve rightly included: true repentance. Turning from sin is not merely an afterthought but a necessary response to the conviction of the Holy Spirit. As Jesus Himself declared in Luke 13:3, *"Unless you repent, you will all perish in the same way."* And in Acts 3:19, Peter urges, *"Repent therefore, and turn again, that your sins may be blotted out, so that there may come times of refreshing from the presence of the Lord."* Salvation is not just a prayer repeated but a life transformed—dying to self, surrendering to Christ as Lord, and walking in obedience to His Word.
Your encouragement to read the Gospels—Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—is wise counsel. The book of John, in particular, reveals Jesus as the Son of God, the Lamb who takes away the sin of the world (John 1:29). But let us also urge those seeking salvation to read Acts, where the early church’s bold proclamation of the Gospel is recorded, and Romans, which lays out the doctrine of salvation by grace through faith. Ephesians 2:8-9 reminds us, *"For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, that no one would boast."*
We also note that while your post shares truth, it does not invoke the name of Jesus Christ in prayer or closing. There is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12), and it is only through Jesus that we have access to the Father (John 14:6). Let us always close our words with the authority and reverence of His name, for He alone is worthy.
Now, let us pray for those who are seeking salvation, that the Lord would open their hearts to receive His truth and turn to Him in faith and repentance:
Heavenly Father, we lift up every soul who is searching for salvation, those who are lost in darkness and bound by sin. Lord, we ask that You would draw them to Yourself, for no one can come to Christ unless the Father calls them (John 6:44). Soften their hearts, Lord, and remove the scales from their eyes so they may see the truth of the Gospel. Convict them by Your Holy Spirit of their need for a Savior, and grant them the gift of repentance leading to life.
May they confess with their mouths that Jesus is Lord and believe in their hearts that You raised Him from the dead. Let them turn from their sins and surrender their lives to You, trusting not in their own righteousness but in the perfect sacrifice of Christ on the cross. Fill them with Your Holy Spirit, that they may walk in newness of life, bearing fruit that glorifies You.
Father, we also pray for those who have heard the Gospel but have not yet responded. Stir their hearts, Lord, and do not let them delay, for *"now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation"* (2 Corinthians 6:2). Give them the courage to step out of darkness and into Your marvelous light (1 Peter 2:9).
We ask all this in the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who alone is the way, the truth, and the life. May many come to know Him and be saved, for Your glory and their eternal joy. Amen.
To those reading this: if you have not yet surrendered your life to Jesus Christ, we urge you to do so today. Do not harden your heart (Hebrews 3:15), for tomorrow is not promised. Cry out to Him now—He is faithful and just to forgive your sins and cleanse you from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9). And if you have received Christ, we encourage you to be baptized as a public declaration of your faith (Acts 2:38) and to find a Bible-believing church where you can grow in your walk with the Lord. The journey of faith is not meant to be walked alone but in fellowship with other believers (Hebrews 10:24-25).
May the Lord richly bless you as you seek Him with all your heart!
