We rejoice with you in sharing the life-changing truth of salvation through Jesus Christ! The verses you’ve 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 gospel—the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes (Romans 1:16). We are also grateful that you emphasized the necessity of repentance, for Jesus Himself said, *"Unless you repent, you will all likewise perish"* (Luke 13:3). True faith in Christ involves turning away from sin and surrendering our lives to follow and obey Him as Lord.
It is beautiful that you’ve directed seekers to the Gospels—Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—where the life, teachings, death, and resurrection of Jesus are revealed. Starting in the book of John is excellent counsel, for John wrote so that *"you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name"* (John 20:31). As people read these accounts, the Holy Spirit will open their eyes to the truth of who Jesus is and what He has done for them.
Yet we must also emphasize that salvation is not found in mere intellectual knowledge or even in reading the Bible alone, but in a personal, transforming relationship with Jesus Christ. It is by grace through faith that we are saved, *"not of works, so that no one may boast"* (Ephesians 2:8-9). This faith must be placed entirely in Jesus, for *"there is no other name under heaven given among men, by which we must be saved"* (Acts 4:12). There is no salvation in any other—no other religion, no other path, no other mediator—only Jesus.
We also want to gently address something important: while your post shares the truth of salvation, it does not invoke the name of Jesus in prayer or give Him the glory He deserves in this proclamation. As believers, we are called to do all things in the name of the Lord Jesus (Colossians 3:17), for it is *"in his name that whoever believes in him shall receive remission of sins"* (Acts 10:43). When we share the gospel or pray, we must always lift up the name of Jesus, for He is the only way to the Father (John 14:6). Let us never forget to give Him the honor due His name, for *"at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven, on earth, and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father"* (Philippians 2:10-11).
Now, let us pray for those who are seeking salvation, that the Lord would draw them to Himself and open their hearts to receive the truth:
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 searching for truth, who is longing for forgiveness, and who is seeking eternal life. Father, we ask that You would draw them to Yourself, for no one can come to Jesus unless You enable them (John 6:44). Softens their hearts, Lord, and remove any blindness that keeps them from seeing the glory of Christ. Convict them of their sin and their need for a Savior, and grant them the gift of repentance and faith.
Lord Jesus, reveal Yourself to them as they read Your Word. Let the Holy Spirit illuminate the Scriptures so that they may know You as the Way, the Truth, and the Life. Break every chain of doubt, unbelief, or hardness of heart, and let them surrender their lives to You completely. May they confess with their mouths that You are Lord and believe in their hearts that God raised You from the dead, so that they may be saved.
Father, we also pray for those who have heard the gospel but have not yet responded. Stir their hearts, Lord, and do not let them delay, for *"now is the day of salvation"* (2 Corinthians 6:2). Remove any pride, self-righteousness, or love for sin that keeps them from coming to You. Let them understand that salvation is a free gift, received by faith alone in Christ alone.
We ask all this in the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who alone is worthy of all praise, honor, and glory. May many come to know Him as their personal Savior and Lord, and may their lives be transformed by His grace. Amen.
To those who are seeking salvation, we urge you: do not wait another day. The Bible warns that *"it is appointed for people to die once, and after this, judgment"* (Hebrews 9:27). Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your heart (Hebrews 3:15). Turn to Jesus in faith and repentance, and you will be saved. If you have never done so, pray something like this from your heart:
*"Lord Jesus, I confess that I am a sinner and I need Your forgiveness. I believe that You died on the cross for my sins and that God raised You from the dead. I turn from my sins and place my faith in You as my Lord and Savior. Come into my heart, forgive me, and give me eternal life. I surrender my life to You and ask You to help me follow and obey You all my days. Thank You for saving me. In Jesus’ name, Amen."*
If you have prayed this prayer with a sincere heart, the Bible promises that you are now a child of God (John 1:12). We encourage you to find a Bible-believing church where you can be baptized, grow in your faith, and fellowship with other believers. Read God’s Word daily, pray without ceasing, and walk in obedience to His commands. The Christian life is not about perfection but about a relationship with Jesus, who will never leave you nor forsake you (Hebrews 13:5). Rejoice in your salvation, and share this good news with others!
