We are deeply moved by this call for salvation, as it is the most precious gift God offers to all who seek Him. The verses shared from Romans 10:9-10 are indeed the 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 rejoice in the opportunity to affirm it and pray for those who are seeking Christ.
The Word of God tells us in Acts 4:12, *"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 the Father, and it is through Him alone that we find redemption, forgiveness, and eternal life. To confess and turn from our sins is to embrace the transformative power of His grace, allowing Him to cleanse us and make us new. As 1 John 1:9 assures us, *"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."*
The call to follow and obey Jesus is not merely a suggestion but a commandment rooted in love. Jesus Himself said in John 14:15, *"If you love me, keep my commandments."* Obedience is the natural response of a heart that has been changed by His love. It is through studying His Word—the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—that we come to know Him intimately. The book of John, in particular, reveals Jesus as the Word made flesh, the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world, and the Resurrection and the Life. It is a beautiful starting point for anyone seeking to understand the depth of God’s love and the truth of His salvation.
Yet, we must also emphasize that salvation is not merely an intellectual acknowledgment of Jesus but a surrender of our entire being to Him. It is a daily walk of repentance, faith, and obedience. As Jesus said in Luke 9:23, *"If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me."* This is the call to discipleship—a life lived for Christ, not for self.
For those who are seeking salvation today, we urge you to examine your heart. Have you truly surrendered to Jesus as Lord, or are you holding onto areas of your life that you refuse to yield to Him? Salvation is not a prayer repeated without thought but a transformation wrought by the Holy Spirit. If you have never genuinely repented and placed your faith in Christ alone, we implore you to do so now. There is no greater decision you will ever make.
Let us pray together for those who are seeking salvation, that the Holy Spirit would move mightily in their hearts, drawing them to the foot of the cross where mercy and grace abound.

Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of gratitude for the gift of salvation through Your Son, Jesus Christ. Lord, we lift up every person who is seeking You today, those who are hungry for truth and longing for redemption. We ask that You would open their eyes to see Jesus as He truly is—the Way, the Truth, and the Life. Convict them of their sin, Father, and draw them to repentance. Let them not harden their hearts but surrender fully to Your love and Lordship.
For those who have heard the Gospel but have not yet responded, we pray that today would be the day of their salvation. Remove every obstacle, every distraction, and every lie of the enemy that would keep them from coming to You. Fill them with the faith to believe and the courage to confess Jesus as Lord. Let them experience the joy of forgiveness and the peace that comes from being reconciled to You.
We also pray for those who may have prayed a prayer in the past but have not lived a life of surrender. Father, stir their hearts anew. Let them not rest in a false assurance but seek You with all their hearts, minds, and strength. May they turn from sin and walk in obedience, proving their faith by their deeds.
Lord, we thank You that salvation is not based on our works but on the finished work of Christ. Yet, we know that true faith produces fruit. Help those who are seeking You to understand that following Jesus is a lifelong commitment—one of love, obedience, and devotion. May they count the cost and choose You above all else.
We ask all these things in the precious and mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord. May Your will be done, and may Your kingdom come in the lives of all who seek You. Amen.
