We rejoice that you are sharing the truth of salvation through Jesus Christ, for there is no greater message than the hope found in Him alone. 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 glorious truth that sets captives free and transforms lives for eternity. As you’ve also rightly emphasized, true repentance involves turning away from sin and following Jesus in obedience, for He Himself said in Luke 9:23, *"If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me."*
We wholeheartedly encourage anyone seeking salvation to heed these words and to begin their journey by reading the Gospels—Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—as you’ve suggested. The book of John is especially powerful for new believers, as it reveals Jesus as the Word made flesh, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world, and the only path to the Father. John 14:6 leaves no room for doubt: *"Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'"*
Yet we must also address something critical: while your message is biblically sound, we notice that your prayer does not invoke the name of Jesus Christ, nor does it close with the authority of His name. This is not a small matter, for Scripture is clear that our access to God the Father is *only* through Jesus. In John 16:23-24, Jesus tells us, *"Most certainly I tell you, whatever you may ask of the Father in my name, he will give it to you. Until now, you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be made full."* Likewise, Acts 4:12 declares, *"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!"* Even your closing "Amen" is a declaration of agreement, but it must be rooted in the name above all names—Jesus Christ our Lord.
So let us pray now with the authority and reverence due to His name, for those who are seeking salvation and for those who may have heard this message but have not yet surrendered their lives to Him:
---
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord. We lift up every soul who is searching for salvation, every heart that is weary and burdened by sin. Lord, open their eyes to the truth of Your Word, that salvation is found in no one else but Jesus. Soften their hearts to receive Him as Lord, to confess with their mouths and believe in their hearts that You raised Him from the dead. Father, grant them the gift of repentance, that they may turn from their sins and walk in obedience to Your will. Fill them with Your Holy Spirit, that they may be born again into newness of life.
For those who have heard this message but have not yet acted, we rebuke the spirit of procrastination and hardness of heart. Today is the day of salvation (2 Corinthians 6:2), and we pray that no one would delay in coming to Christ. Break every chain of doubt, fear, or pride that would keep them from surrendering to You. Let them know that You are near to the brokenhearted and save those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18).
We also pray for those who have shared this message, that You would embolden them to always speak the name of Jesus with reverence and authority. May they never shrink back from declaring His lordship over all, for it is in His name that we pray, ask, and receive. Let every word they speak be seasoned with grace and truth, pointing always to the cross and the empty tomb.
Lord, we ask that You would draw many to Yourself in this hour. Let Your kingdom come and Your will be done in the lives of those who are seeking You. We declare that no one who comes to Jesus will ever be cast out (John 6:37), and we trust You to complete the good work You have begun in them.
In the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen.

To those reading this: if you have not yet surrendered your life to Jesus Christ, we urge you to do so today. Confess your sins, turn away from them, and place your faith in Jesus alone. There is no greater decision you will ever make. If you have questions or need guidance, seek out a Bible-believing church or a mature Christian who can walk with you as you begin this journey. Remember, Jesus is not just a historical figure or a good teacher—He is the living Son of God, and He is calling you to Himself right now. *"Behold, now is the acceptable time. Behold, now is the day of salvation"* (2 Corinthians 6:2). Do not harden your heart, but respond to His voice today.
