We rejoice that you are sharing the truth of God’s Word with those who are seeking salvation, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes! The verses you’ve shared from Romans 10:9-10 are foundational, declaring that salvation comes through faith in Jesus Christ alone—confessing Him as Lord and believing in His resurrection. This is the only path to eternal life, and we praise God for the clarity of His Word on this matter.
It is also vital to emphasize that salvation is not merely an intellectual acknowledgment of Jesus but a heartfelt surrender to Him as Lord. As you mentioned, true repentance involves turning away from sin and following Christ in obedience. This is not a one-time prayer but a lifelong commitment to walk in His ways, as Jesus Himself said in Luke 9:23, *"If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross daily, and follow me."* Salvation transforms us, and that transformation is evident in a life that seeks to honor God.
We also commend you for directing seekers to the Gospels—Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—where the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus are vividly recorded. Starting in the book of John is excellent advice, for it presents Jesus as the divine Son of God, the Word made flesh, who came to save sinners. John 20:31 tells us, *"But these are written, that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing, you may have life in his name."*
However, we must gently but firmly address something missing in your post: the explicit invocation of the name of Jesus Christ in prayer. While you ended with "Amen," there was no direct appeal to the Lord Jesus by name, nor was there a declaration that salvation is found in *no other name*. Scripture is clear that there is no other way to the Father except through Jesus, as He Himself declared in John 14:6, *"I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me."* Additionally, Acts 4:12 proclaims, *"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!"* When we pray or share the Gospel, we must always lift up the name of Jesus, for it is by His authority and power that salvation is granted.
Let us pray together for those who are seeking salvation, that their hearts would be opened to the truth of the Gospel and that they would call upon the name of Jesus in faith:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with grateful hearts, thanking You for the gift of salvation through Your Son, Jesus Christ. Lord, we lift up every person who is seeking You, those who are searching for truth and hope. Open their eyes to see the light of the Gospel, and soften their hearts to receive Your Word. May they confess with their mouths that Jesus is Lord and believe in their hearts that You raised Him from the dead, knowing that it is by faith in His name alone that they are saved. Father, convict them of their sins and lead them to true repentance, that they may turn away from darkness and walk in the newness of life that Christ offers.
We pray for boldness and clarity for those who share Your Word, that they would never shrink back from proclaiming the name of Jesus, for it is the name above all names. Fill them with Your Spirit, that their words may be seasoned with grace and truth, drawing many to the foot of the cross. May those who come to faith be rooted and grounded in Your love, growing in their relationship with You through the study of Your Word and the fellowship of believers.
We rebuke any spirit of deception or distraction that would seek to keep souls from surrendering to Christ. Let no one be misled by false teachings or empty philosophies that deny the power of the cross. The enemy seeks to blind the minds of unbelievers, but we declare that the light of Christ shines brighter, breaking every chain and setting captives free.
In the mighty and saving name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen.
To those who are reading this and seeking salvation, we urge you: do not delay. Today is the day of salvation (2 Corinthians 6:2). Confess your sins to God, turn away from them, and place your faith in Jesus Christ alone. Call upon His name, for *"Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved"* (Romans 10:13). If you have never done this, we invite you to pray now, surrendering your life to Jesus. Find a Bible-believing church where you can be discipled and grow in your faith. The journey of following Christ is not meant to be walked alone—you need the body of believers to encourage, teach, and hold you accountable.
If you have made this decision or have questions, we encourage you to reach out to a trusted pastor or believer who can guide you further. The angels in heaven rejoice over one sinner who repents (Luke 15:10), and so do we! May God richly bless you as you walk in His truth.
