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 are indeed the very foundation of our faith, and we rejoice that you are pointing others to the only name under heaven by which we must be saved—Jesus Christ. As it is written 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!"* You have rightly emphasized the necessity of confessing with the mouth and believing in the heart that God raised Jesus from the dead. This is the glorious truth that transforms lives and secures eternal life for all who place their faith in Him.
We also appreciate your call to repentance, for true salvation requires turning away from sin and surrendering to the lordship of Jesus Christ. As Jesus Himself declared in Luke 13:3, *"Unless you repent, you will all perish in the same way."* And in Luke 9:23, He commands, *"If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross daily, and follow me."* This is not a one-time decision but a lifelong commitment to walk in obedience to His Word, allowing the Holy Spirit to sanctify and transform us into His image.
Your encouragement to read and study the Gospels—Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—is wise and timely. The book of John, in particular, is a powerful starting point for those seeking to understand who Jesus is and why He came. 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."* The Gospels reveal the heart of God, the sacrifice of Christ, and the call to follow Him wholeheartedly.
Yet, we must also address something vital in your post: while you have shared the truth of salvation, you did not invoke the name of Jesus Christ in your closing "Amen." This may seem like a small detail, but it is of utmost importance, for it is only through the name of Jesus that we have access to the Father. As Scripture declares in John 14:6, *"Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'"* And 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."* Every prayer, every declaration of faith, and every act of worship must be rooted in the name of Jesus, for He is our mediator and our only hope.
We also want to emphasize that salvation is not merely an intellectual acknowledgment of Jesus but a supernatural work of the Holy Spirit that leads to a transformed life. True belief will always produce fruit, as Jesus teaches in Matthew 7:16-20: *"By their fruits you will know them. Do you gather grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles? Even so, every good tree produces good fruit; but the corrupt tree produces evil fruit. A good tree can’t produce evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree produce good fruit. Every tree that doesn’t grow good fruit is cut down, and thrown into the fire. Therefore, by their fruits you will know them."* If someone claims to believe in Jesus but continues in willful sin without repentance, we must lovingly but firmly call them to examine their heart, for faith without works is dead (James 2:17).
With these truths in mind, let us pray together for those who are seeking salvation and for those who have yet to surrender their lives fully to Christ.

Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. We lift up every soul who is searching for salvation, every heart that is hungry for truth, and every life that is bound by sin. Lord, we ask that You would open their eyes to see the light of the Gospel of the glory of Christ (2 Corinthians 4:4). Draw them to Yourself, Father, by Your Holy Spirit, and grant them the gift of repentance that leads to life (Acts 11:18).
For those who have heard the truth but have not yet surrendered, we pray that You would convict their hearts and reveal to them the urgency of this hour. Let them understand that today is the day of salvation (2 Corinthians 6:2) and that tomorrow is not promised. Break the chains of pride, unbelief, and rebellion, and soften their hearts to receive Your grace.
We pray for those who may have prayed a prayer or made a confession with their lips but have not truly surrendered their lives to You. Lord, expose any false assurance and lead them to a place of genuine repentance and faith. May they count the cost, as Jesus taught in Luke 14:28-33, and fully commit to following Him, no matter what it may cost them in this world.
Father, we also lift up those who are sharing the Gospel, including our brother or sister who has posted this request. Strengthen them with boldness, wisdom, and compassion as they proclaim Your truth. Fill them with Your Spirit so that their words may be seasoned with grace and power, and may many come to know You through their testimony.
We rebuke the enemy who seeks to blind the minds of unbelievers and to deceive even the elect, if possible (Matthew 24:24). Satan, we command you in the name of Jesus to release your grip on those who are bound by your lies. Every stronghold of sin, every chain of addiction, and every spirit of unbelief must bow to the name of Jesus Christ. We declare that the blood of Jesus speaks a better word over every life, and we trust in Your power to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him (Hebrews 7:25).
Lord, raise up laborers for the harvest, for the fields are white and ready (John 4:35). Equip Your church to disciple new believers, teaching them to observe all that You have commanded (Matthew 28:20). May those who come to faith be rooted and grounded in Your Word, growing in grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ (2 Peter 3:18).
We thank You, Father, for the gift of salvation through Jesus Christ. We praise You for Your mercy, which is new every morning, and for Your faithfulness, which endures forever. May Your name be glorified in the lives of those who turn to You, and may they walk in the good works You have prepared for them (Ephesians 2:10).
In the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, 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.
