How to Experience New Life |
Has anyone ever told you that God loves you and that He has a wonderful plan for your life? It’s true! We encourage you to embrace God’s love today and receive the salvation that only Jesus Christ gives. Here are five simple steps you can take to find assurance of salvation:
- 1. Recognize Your Need. The Bible tells us that “all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23). We are all sinners and we must admit our need for a Savior.
- 2. Repent of Our Sins. Our sins create a wall that separates us from God. By confessing your sins and turning from them, you will find forgiveness. The Bible promises “If I confess my sins, He is faithful and just to forgive me of my sins and to cleanse me from all unrighteousness” (1 John 1:9).
- 3. Believe in Jesus. God created a miracle when He sent His only Son to die so that He could pay for all our sins. Put your faith in Him and believe in His power to save you. The Bible says, “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life” (John 3:16).
- 4. Receive His Salvation. God has given us a great gift in His Son, but we must receive His gift. Thank Him for loving and forgiving you, and then ask Him to live in your heart. His promise to us is clear: “But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God” (John 1:12).
- 5. Confess Your Faith. The Bible assures us: “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).
If you would like to receive the gift that God has for you today and be sure that you will go to heaven, please say this prayer below with all of your heart:
Dear Lord Jesus, Come into my heart. Forgive me of all my sins. Wash me and cleanse me. Set me free from my past hurts and failures. Jesus, thank You that You died for me. I believe that You are risen from the dead and that You’re coming back again for me. Fill me with the Holy Spirit. Give me a passion and desire for the things of God and a holy boldness to talk to others about You and what You’ve done in my life. I believe that I am saved, born again, forgiven and on my way to Heaven because I have now Jesus in my heart.
