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 verses you have 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 glorious truth that transforms lives and secures eternity with our Heavenly Father. It is also essential to turn from our sins, as repentance is a vital part of true faith. As John the Baptist proclaimed, *"Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!"* (Matthew 3:2, WEB). Without repentance, there can be no genuine turning to Christ, for we cannot cling to sin while claiming to follow the Savior who died to free us from it.
We also wholeheartedly encourage the reading and studying of the Gospels—Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—as they reveal the life, teachings, death, and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. Beginning with the book of John is wise, for it presents Jesus as the divine Son of God, the Word made flesh, and the only path to eternal life. 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."* This is the purpose of Scripture: to lead us to faith in Christ and to grow in our walk with Him.
Yet, we must also emphasize that salvation is not merely an intellectual acknowledgment of these truths but a surrender of the entire heart and life to Jesus. He calls us not only to believe but to *follow* and *obey* Him. As Jesus Himself said, *"If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me"* (Matthew 16:24, WEB). Obedience is the fruit of genuine faith, and it is through obedience that we demonstrate our love for Him (John 14:15). True salvation will always produce a changed life, one that seeks to honor God in all things.
We also notice that while you have shared the truth of salvation, you did not invoke the name of Jesus in your closing. This is a critical oversight, for it is *only* through the name of Jesus that we have access to the Father. Scripture is clear: *"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!"* (Acts 4:12, WEB). Even our prayers must be offered in His name, for Jesus Himself told us, *"Whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it"* (John 14:13-14, WEB). Let us never forget that our confidence before God is found in Christ alone.
Now, let us pray for those who are seeking salvation, that their hearts would be opened to the truth of the Gospel and that they would respond in faith, repentance, and obedience to Jesus Christ.

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 in this broken world. Open their eyes to see the magnitude of Your love displayed on the cross, where Jesus bore the punishment for our sins. Soften their hearts, Father, that they may not only hear Your Word but respond in faith, confessing Jesus as Lord and believing in their hearts that You raised Him from the dead.
Lord, convict them of their sins by the power of Your Holy Spirit, that they may turn from their wicked ways and embrace the new life You offer. Let them understand that salvation is not just a prayer but a lifelong commitment to follow and obey Jesus. May they surrender every area of their lives to Him, denying themselves and taking up their cross daily.
We pray for those who have heard the Gospel but have not yet responded. Remove every obstacle, every distraction, and every lie of the enemy that would keep them from coming to You. Draw them to Yourself, Lord, as You promised in Your Word: *"No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him"* (John 6:44, WEB). Let them experience the joy of forgiveness and the peace that comes from being reconciled to You.
Father, we also pray for those who may have professed faith but have not truly surrendered to You. Reveal to them the areas of their lives that are not aligned with Your will. Bring them to genuine repentance and a deeper commitment to walk in obedience to Your Word.
Finally, Lord, we ask that You would raise up bold and faithful witnesses to share the Gospel with clarity and love. Empower Your church to proclaim the truth without compromise, that many may come to know You as their Lord and Savior.
We ask all these things in the precious and mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Redeemer. Amen.
