Are you ready to say "Yes" to Jesus?
Accepting the promises of Jesus requires more commitment than just sitting in a dusty church seat once each week -- you need to take positive action and embrace Jesus as your friend, your lover, your Savior. We are talking about something that will not only save your life, but also change your life. If you allow God to work in your life you will find that he will thoroughly clean you on the inside -- your thoughts and feelings. He will remove the 'old' you and replace it with a 'new' you. You will be a new creation in Christ, re-born as a whole new person.
A commitment to Christ requires a step of faith, an acceptance of the sacrifice which He made for you. In dying on the Cross for us Jesus has washed our sins clean with His blood. The Bible says "Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool. If you are willing and obedient, you will eat the best from the land..." [Isaiah 1:18-19 NIV]. What a fabulous promise that is! The Bible also says that: "if you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord', and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved" [Romans 10:9-10 NIV].
If you are ready to make that commitment, if you want to say "Yes" to Jesus then say the following prayer out loud:
Dear Jesus. Thank you for the sacrifice You made for me. I am sorry for my past sins and will try my best not to repeat them. I ask Your help to keep this pledge. I know I am not worthy but I willingly accept You as my Lord and Savior, and I thank You for Your blessing over me and my family.
Amen.
Let us be the first people to welcome you to the Family of God. We urge you to join a Bible-based church and to grow spiritually by reading the Holy Bible (a good place to start is the Gospel of John in the New Testament). Now that you have said this prayer, please send an e-mail to us so we can pray for you too and possibly offer some further assistance.
