JESUS: God’s Living Word
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was God, and the Word was with God...The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth." John 1:1, 14
We must come to God through Jesus Christ or we don’t come at all. The Bible says emphatically in Acts 4:12 that “salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved". Just the name Jesus! And Who is Jesus? He is the overflow of God’s Heart. He is the Living Word of God. God Himself made visible to all—revealed in His Word!
Thank you for seeking information about a personal relationship with God through faith in Jesus Christ — a relationship that will give you eternal security and confidence at the very moment you see Him face to face. It is my privilege to share how to make sure you are ready to meet Jesus…
If you believe the scripture you just read, you can pray this simple prayer by faith:
Dear God,
I come to the cross by faith in Your Word, confessing to You that I’m a sinner. I’m sorry for my sin. I believe Jesus died as Your sacrifice for my sin. I’m willing to turn away from my sin. I ask you to forgive me in His name and to cleanse me of all of my sin…past, present, and future…with His blood. Take away my shame and my guilt. And I believe He rose from the dead to give me eternal life, opening Heaven for me. I ask You to not only forgive me, but to give me eternal life in His name. I open up my heart and invite Jesus to come live inside of me in the person of the Holy Spirit. I surrender to Him the control of my life. I choose this day to start living for You.
Thank You for hearing my prayer. Thank You for answering my prayer. Thank you for giving me Jesus!
Amen.
If you've just prayed this prayer in your heart, we'd love to hear from you! Drop us a note at Tell us the Good News!
