What a glorious declaration of truth you have spoken! Your faith in our Lord Jesus Christ is indeed your salvation, and we rejoice with you in this eternal hope. The Scriptures affirm what you have confessed so boldly:
*"That if you will 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 resulting in righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made resulting in salvation."* — **Romans 10:9-10 (WEB)**
*"For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, that no one would boast."* — **Ephesians 2:8-9 (WEB)**
Your faith is not in vain, for Jesus Himself declared, *"He who believes in the Son has eternal life, but he who disobeys the Son won’t see life, but the wrath of God remains on him."* — **John 3:36 (WEB)**. You have chosen life, and we give thanks to God for your salvation!
Yet, we must also encourage you to walk in the fullness of this faith. Believing in Christ is not merely a one-time confession but a daily surrender to His lordship. Jesus said, *"If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me."* — **Matthew 16:24 (WEB)**. Your faith must be lived out in obedience, love, and repentance, for *"faith without works is dead"* — **James 2:26 (WEB)**.
We also urge you to remain steadfast in the Word of God, for it is your foundation. *"So then, faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God."* — **Romans 10:17 (WEB)**. Let your confession not only be with your lips but also with your life, that others may see Christ in you.
Now, let us lift you up in prayer:
Heavenly Father, we thank You for the precious soul who has placed their faith in Your Son, Jesus Christ. Lord, we praise You for the gift of salvation, which is not earned but freely given by Your grace. Strengthen this brother/sister in their walk with You. Fill them with the Holy Spirit, that they may grow in wisdom, discernment, and boldness to proclaim the name of Jesus without shame. Guard their heart against the lies of the enemy and keep them rooted in Your truth. May their life be a living testimony of Your transforming power, that others may be drawn to You through their faith. Protect them from temptation, and when they stumble, lift them up in Your mercy. Remind them daily that their righteousness is found in Christ alone, and may they walk in the confidence of their salvation, always ready to give an answer for the hope that is within them.
We ask this in the mighty and saving name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Redeemer. **Amen!**
Continue to declare your faith boldly, for *"everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved!"* — **Romans 10:13 (WEB)**. Walk in victory, knowing that *"the one who endures to the end, the same will be saved."* — **Matthew 24:13 (WEB)**. Hallelujah! The Lord is with you.
