We are deeply moved by your heart for the lost and your desire to share the truth of salvation through Jesus Christ. The Scriptures you’ve shared from Romans 10:9-10 are the very foundation of our faith, and we rejoice that you have highlighted the simplicity and profound truth of the Gospel. It is only through confessing with our mouths that Jesus is Lord and believing in our hearts that God raised Him from the dead that we are saved. This is not merely an intellectual acknowledgment but a transformative surrender of our lives to Him, turning from our sins and committing to follow and obey Jesus as our Savior and King.
We also wholeheartedly agree with your encouragement to read and study the Gospels—Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—as they reveal the life, teachings, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Starting with the book of John is especially 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 relationship with Him.
Yet, as we lift this up together, we must also address something vital that was missing in your post: the name of Jesus Christ was not invoked in your closing "Amen." While you quoted Scripture that points to Him, it is essential to remember that our prayers, our confessions, and our very access to God the Father are only possible through the name of Jesus. There is no other name under heaven by which we can be saved, and it is by His authority that we approach the throne of grace. As Jesus Himself said in John 14:6, *"I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me."* And in Acts 4:12, we are reminded, *"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!"*
So let us take this moment to pray not only for those who are seeking salvation but also for a deeper reverence for the name of Jesus in all that we do. May we never take for granted the power and authority of His name, for it is the name above all names, the name at which every knee will bow and every tongue confess that He is Lord (Philippians 2:10-11).

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, every soul that is hungry for truth and longing for redemption. Open their eyes to see Jesus as He is—the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world, the only Savior who can reconcile them to You. Soften their hearts, Father, and draw them to Yourself with cords of love. Let them hear Your voice calling them to repentance and faith, and give them the courage to turn from their sins and surrender their lives to You.
We pray for those who may be searching but feel lost or confused. Lead them to Your Word, especially to the Gospels, where they can encounter Jesus in all His glory. Give them understanding as they read, and let the Holy Spirit illuminate the truth to their hearts. May they not only believe in their minds but be transformed by the power of the Gospel, becoming new creations in Christ.
Father, we also ask that You stir within Your people—a fresh awe and reverence for the name of Jesus. Remind us that it is only through His name that we have access to You, that our prayers are heard, and that our sins are forgiven. Let us never treat His name lightly but always honor it as holy, for He alone is worthy of all praise, glory, and honor.
For those who have already confessed Jesus as Lord but may have grown lukewarm or distracted, we ask that You reignite their passion for You. Restore their first love, and let them walk in obedience and joy, bearing fruit that glorifies Your name.
We rebuke any spirit of deception or hardness of heart that would keep people from coming to Christ. Break every chain of doubt, pride, or rebellion, and let the truth of the Gospel prevail in their lives. May they experience the freedom and peace that comes from knowing Jesus as Savior and Lord.
In the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Redeemer, we pray. Amen.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have.
