“For God so loved the world that He gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life” (John 3:16).
If you don’t know Jesus as your Lord and Savior, simply pray the following prayer:
Dear God in heaven, I come to you in the name of Jesus, your Son. I acknowledge to you that I am a sinner, and I am sorry for my sins and the life that I have lived; I need your forgiveness.
I believe that your only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, shed His precious blood on the cross, and died for my sins. I am now willing to turn my life away from those sins. I want to learn your Ways, from your Word, and do only what you tell me to from this point forward in my life.
Your Word says, “Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Acts 2:21). I am now calling out to you Lord. I pray and ask Jesus to be the Lord over my life according to Your Word: “If thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God has raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation” (Romans 10:9-10).
Mark1:15 now tells us:
1) Lord, I repent of my former way of living! I want to change and take on the character of God in my life!
2) I believe the Gospel that Jesus Christ preached - that the Kingdom of God will be established soon, here on this earth! (Revelation 20:1-6)
3) I want to be Baptised (Acts 2:38) in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of my sins, and I want to receive the gift of your Holy Spirit dwelling inside me! I know that when I arise from that water, and through the laying on of hands, I will receive your Holy Spirit in me, I will be Saved! I will be reborn as a Son of God! I will begin to understand your Word and your Ways. If I will be obedient to all that you command of me, I will be a Christian—a child of Almighty God! (Ezekiel 18:19-21 / 2 Corinthians 5:21 / Galatians 3:13, 4:5 / 1 Peter 2:24).
Thank you, Father, for sending your Son to die for me, so that I may have eternal life in your Kingdom (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 / 1 Corinthians 15: 20-23 / Revelation 20:1-6). I thank you God, for your unlimited Grace; which led me to repentance, and saved me from penalty of my sins, which is death (1 John 5:11-13).
I ask you, Lord Jesus, to transform my life so that I may bring Glory and Honor to you Lord, and not to myself.
Father, You also said in Your Word, “If ye then being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: How much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?” (Luke 11:13). I ask You Father, to fill me with your Holy Spirit, so that I may learn and understand your Word, your Ways, and grow in the knowledge and Grace of Jesus Christ (1 John 2:27-29). I will be blessed as your child (Deuteronomy 28:1-14 / Deuteronomy 30:19) as I walk in your ways! Amen.
If you have prayed this prayer, welcome to the family of God!
Now that you are “Saved”, what’s next?
The first thing you should do, is ask God to lead you to a Bible-based church or body of Believers, who regularly read and study God’s word.
Once you have found your “church home”, you should become immersed in water and baptized (Mark 16:15-16 / John 3:5 / Acts 2:37-38).
By accepting Christ, and being baptized in the Spirit through water baptism, you show your obedience to the Lord. Water Baptism is a symbol of your salvation and ressurection from the dead - after which you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. You were dead but now you live, for the Lord Jesus Christ redeemed you for a price. That price was His death on the cross! How deep is the Love God has for us!
May God Bless You!

"And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.” (Matthew 28:18-20)
