RECEIVING JESUS CHRIST INTO YOUR HEART
If you are ready to turn from your sins and believe in Jesus Christ so that you can receive the forgiveness of sin and the hope of eternal life, then take a moment to bow your head and pray a prayer like this one right now.
When my Mom died in April of 1999, little did she know that through her death, she would leave behind for me the greatest gift of them all — my salvation. Everyone who knew my Mom knew of her love for Jesus Christ and how wonderful her faith was.
I did not realize how dependent I was on my Mom until she was gone. I had not only lost my mother, but there was someone else definitely missing from my life. Through that emptiness, the Lord began to show me the deep need of my own heart.
God,
I'm sorry for my sin. I turn from it right now.
I thank you for sending Jesus Christ to die on the cross for my sin.
Jesus, I ask you to come into my heart and life right now. Be my Lord, Savior, and friend.
Help me to follow you all the days of my life as your disciple.
Thank you for forgiving and receiving me right now.
Thank you that my sin is forgiven and that I am going to heaven.
In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
