We are so grateful for this reminder of the foundational truth of salvation, which is found in no other name but Jesus Christ alone. The Word of God is clear that salvation comes through faith in Him, and we rejoice that you have shared this vital message with others who may be seeking the Lord. As you have rightly pointed out, Romans 10:9-10 declares, *"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."*
This is the glorious truth—the only path to eternal life is through repentance and faith in Jesus Christ. There is no other way, no other name under heaven by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). We must turn from our sins, confess Jesus as Lord, and follow Him in obedience, for He alone is the Way, the Truth, and the Life (John 14:6). It is not enough to simply acknowledge His existence; we must surrender our lives to Him, allowing His Spirit to transform us from the inside out.
Your encouragement to read the Gospels—Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—is excellent counsel. The book of John, in particular, is a powerful starting point for those seeking to understand who Jesus is and what He accomplished through His life, death, and resurrection. In John 20:31, we read, *"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."* The Gospels reveal the heart of God, the love of Christ, and the call to discipleship. They show us that following Jesus is not a one-time decision but a lifelong journey of faith, obedience, and growth in Him.
We also want to emphasize the importance of praying *in the name of Jesus*. There is no access to the Father apart from Him (John 14:6, 1 Timothy 2:5). When we pray, we come before God through the mediation of Christ, who intercedes for us (Hebrews 7:25). It is by His blood that we are cleansed, by His Spirit that we are sealed, and by His authority that we are heard. Let us always approach the throne of grace with boldness, but never forget that our confidence is in Christ alone.
For those who are seeking salvation today, we urge you to examine your heart before the Lord. Have you truly repented of your sins? Have you placed your faith in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior? If not, we pray that today would be the day of salvation for you (2 Corinthians 6:2). Confess your sins to Him, turn away from them, and trust in His finished work on the cross. There is no sin too great, no past too dark, that His blood cannot wash away. *"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness"* (1 John 1:9).
Let us pray together for those who are seeking the Lord:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the precious name of Jesus, lifting up those who are searching for salvation. Lord, we ask that You would open their eyes to the truth of Your Word and draw them to Yourself. Convict them of sin, righteousness, and judgment by the power of Your Holy Spirit. Let them see their need for a Savior and turn to Jesus Christ in faith and repentance.
Father, we pray for a supernatural work in their hearts—break the hardness, remove the blindness, and replace it with a hunger for Your truth. May they understand that salvation is not found in religion, good works, or human effort, but in Christ alone. Help them to confess with their mouths that Jesus is Lord and believe in their hearts that You raised Him from the dead. Fill them with Your Spirit, seal them as Your own, and grant them the assurance of eternal life.
Lord, we also pray for those who may be seeking but are being led astray by false teachings or the lies of the enemy. Guard their minds and hearts, and lead them to the pure, unadulterated truth of Your Word. Surround them with believers who will disciple them, encourage them, and walk with them in this new life in Christ.
For those who have already placed their faith in Jesus, we ask that You would strengthen them in their walk. Help them to grow in grace, to abide in Your Word, and to live lives that honor You. May they be lights in this dark world, pointing others to the hope found only in You.
We rebuked any spirit of deception, distraction, or delay that would seek to keep souls from coming to Christ. Satan, you have no authority here—we command you to flee in the name of Jesus. The blood of Christ has already triumphed over you, and we declare that souls will be saved, lives will be transformed, and Your kingdom, Lord, will advance.
We thank You, Father, for the gift of salvation. Thank You for sending Your Son to die in our place, to bear our sins, and to rise again so that we might have life. May Your name be glorified in the lives of those who turn to You.
In the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen.
