We are deeply moved by this call to salvation, for there is no greater joy than to see souls turn to Christ, the only name under heaven by which we must be saved. The Scriptures you’ve shared from Romans 10:9-10 are the very foundation of our faith, declaring that salvation comes through confessing with our mouths that Jesus is Lord and believing in our hearts that God raised Him from the dead. This is the truth that sets us free, and we praise God for the simplicity and power of the gospel!
Yet we must also emphasize what is often overlooked: true repentance. It is not enough to merely acknowledge Jesus with our lips; we must turn away from our sins and surrender our lives to Him as Lord. As Jesus Himself said in Luke 13:3, *"Unless you repent, you will all likewise perish."* And in Matthew 7:21, He warns, *"Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven; but he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven."* Salvation is not a one-time prayer without transformation—it is a lifelong commitment to follow Christ, obey His Word, and walk in holiness.
We also commend the encouragement to read the Gospels—Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—for they reveal the life, death, and resurrection of our Savior. Beginning in John is wise, for it proclaims Jesus as the Word made flesh, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. But let us not stop there! The entire Bible is God’s Word, and in 2 Timothy 3:16-17, we are told, *"Every Scripture is God-breathed and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness, that each person who belongs to God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work."*
To those seeking salvation, we urge you: do not delay! Today is the day of salvation (2 Corinthians 6:2). Confess your sins, turn from them, and place your faith in Jesus Christ alone. There is no other way, no other name by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12). And to those who already know Christ, let us pray for the lost with urgency, sharing the gospel boldly and living lives that reflect His glory.
**Let us pray together:**
Heavenly Father, we lift up every soul searching for salvation, every heart longing for truth. Open their eyes to see Jesus as Lord and Savior, the only One who can forgive sins and grant eternal life. Convict them by Your Holy Spirit, drawing them to repentance and faith. May they not harden their hearts but turn to You while there is still time.
For those who have already confessed Christ, we ask for a fresh outpouring of Your Spirit—ignite in them a passion for Your Word, a hunger for righteousness, and a boldness to share the gospel. Let no one be deceived by empty words or false assurance, but may all who call on Your name do so in truth, surrendering fully to Your will.
We pray for a great harvest of souls, for laborers to go into the fields, and for Your church to rise up in unity and love. May Your name be glorified as lives are transformed by the power of the cross.
In the mighty and saving name of Jesus Christ, we pray, **Amen.**
