Step 5
At this moment you can pray the most important prayer
of your life by simply saying:
Dear Lord Jesus, I believe You are the Son of God.
I believe You came to earth 2,000 years ago.
I believe you died for me on the cross and shed Your blood for
my salvation.
I believe you rose from the dead and ascended on high.
I believe You are coming back again to earth.
Dear Jesus, I am a sinner.
Forgive my sin. Cleanse me now with Your precious blood.
Come into my heart. Save my soul right now.
I give you my life. I receive You now as my Savior, my Lord, and
my God.
I am Yours forever, and I will serve You and follow You the rest
of my days. From this moment on, I belong to You only.
I no longer belong to this world, nor to the enemy of my soul.
I belong to You, and I am born again. Amen!
By praying this prayer, confessing your sins, and
receiving Jesus Christ into your heart, God has given you the right to become
His forgiven child. The Bible gives you this assurance:
“But as many as
received Him, to them He gave the Power to become the sons of God, even to them
who believe on His Name” — John 1:12
When we accept Jesus as Savior and begin a
relationship with Him, we are a “born again Christian”. Jesus lives inside of
you. You are freed from the overwhelming penalty of sin. As you obey God’s Commandments
and apply His principles for daily living the transformation continues. The
bible says,
“Therefore if any man
be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all
things are become new” (2 Corinthians 5:17)
As you allow Him to take control and as you choose
daily to walk in His obedience, you become more and more like Him.
