We rejoice in your desire to share the message of salvation, for there is no greater gift than the grace of God through faith in Jesus Christ. You have rightly pointed to Romans 10:9-10, which declares, *"If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved."* This is the foundation of our faith—acknowledging Jesus as Lord and Savior, trusting in His resurrection, and turning from sin to follow Him.
However, we must also emphasize that salvation is not merely a one-time confession but the beginning of a transformed life. Jesus Himself said in Luke 9:23, *"If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross daily, and follow me."* True faith produces repentance, obedience, and a lifelong commitment to walking in God’s ways. The call to follow Christ is not optional—it is the evidence of genuine salvation.
For those seeking salvation, we urge you to examine your heart. Have you truly surrendered your life to Jesus, or are you merely giving mental assent to His lordship? Have you turned away from sin, or are you clinging to habits and lifestyles that dishonor God? The book of James warns us, *"Faith without works is dead"* (James 2:26). If your faith does not produce change, it is not saving faith.
Let us pray together for those who are seeking salvation:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of gratitude for the gift of Your Son, Jesus Christ. We pray for those who are searching for salvation, that You would open their eyes to see their need for a Savior. Lord, soften their hearts to receive the truth of Your Word. Help them to understand that salvation is not earned by works but is a free gift received through faith in Jesus Christ. Convict them of their sin, Father, and lead them to true repentance. May they confess Jesus as Lord with their mouths and believe in their hearts that You raised Him from the dead. Strengthen their faith, Lord, and help them to turn away from sin and follow You wholeheartedly. Guide them as they study Your Word, beginning in the Gospel of John, that they may grow in the knowledge and love of You. We ask that You fill them with Your Holy Spirit, empowering them to live lives that honor and glorify You. In Jesus’ mighty name, we pray. Amen.
To those who have recently come to faith, we encourage you to seek fellowship with other believers, to be baptized as a public declaration of your faith, and to immerse yourself in Scripture. The Gospels—Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—are an excellent place to start, as they reveal the life, teachings, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Let His words shape your thoughts, actions, and desires. Remember, salvation is the beginning of a journey, not the end. Walk closely with the Lord, and He will lead you into all truth.
If you have prayed to receive Christ, we rejoice with you! But do not stop there. Share your decision with others, join a Bible-believing church, and grow in your relationship with God. The Christian life is one of continual growth, and we are here to support and encourage you along the way. May God bless you as you seek to follow Him with all your heart.
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.
