Sinners Prayer

Lord Jesus, for too long I’ve kept you out of my life. I know that I am a sinner and that I cannot save myself. No longer will I close the door when I hear you knocking. By faith I gratefully receive your gift of salvation. I am ready to trust you as my Lord and Savior. Thank you, Lord Jesus, for coming to earth. I believe you are the Son of God who died on the cross for my sins and rose from the dead on the third day. Thank you for bearing my sins and giving me the gift of eternal life. I believe your words are true. Come into my heart, Lord Jesus, and be my Savior.
Amen.

Are you wondering if now is the time to become a Christian?  God is speaking to your heart and wanting you to come to him.

You think you need to do this or that first.  That isn’t true…God will forgive all of your past sins right now and start your life anew.

If not now…when?  If you wait and something happens to you…Hell could be your home for eternity.

God’s Holy Spirit will help you know if you are ready to become a Christian….. by praying a prayer such as the one below, you can change your life forever. 

Dear God:

I know I have sinned and that my sin separates me from You. I am sorry for my sin. I believe Jesus died on the cross for me so my sin can be forgiven. I believe Jesus rose from the dead and is alive.

God, please forgive me. I ask Jesus to come into my life and be my Lord and Savior. I will obey you,  follow you, and honor you.

Amen
