Last Day for Give-Away!
-
Understanding that the Bible is true. Jesus is the only way to God.
-
Agree with God that you are sinner.
-
Believe that Jesus died on the cross (an actual event in history – not a made up fable) for you personally.
-
Invite Jesus to come and live in your life.
The Bible says in John 1:12, Yet to all who received Him, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God.”
Perhaps you just can’t remember when you made the deliberate decision to believe and receive Him. Perhaps you think:
-
“I’ve been a Christian all my life.”-
-
“I was raised going to church.”
-
“I was baptized when I was 8.”
-
“I joined the church when I was 11.”
-
“I was christened as a baby.”
-
“I went through confirmation or a new Christian class.”
If you can’t remember – but one of the above (or something similar) is your only story – let’s make sure today! Pray with me if you can’t remember: (Don’t roll your eyes. Yes – let’s pray together virtually.)
Dear Jesus, I know I am a sinner. I’m guilty! I believe You are the only way to God and that you came to die for my sins. Forgive me. Right now, I turn from my sins and open the door of my heart and life. I want You in my life. Thank you for saving me Lord.”
If you just prayed with me (believing, in faith what you prayed) – today is your spiritual birthday! Today your eternal destiny has changed. You can be assured that when you close your eyes to this life – you will open your eyes to Jesus in heaven.
God has made it so simple for us. If you have never prayed a prayer similar to the above with believing faith – do it today.
I can remember when I prayed that prayer for the first time. I was in the third grade coming home from school one day with a neighbor’s mom. Though I was a young girl, I had such an awareness of God in my life from that moment on. I wanted to go to church. I had a desire to read and understand my Bible.
However, it would be many years before that faith became vibrantly alive! I have not been the same since. It’s changed my entire family. It came in the most unassuming way – through the ground beneath me… shaking. (Not an earthquake.) But circumstances that were more than I could bear…
If God hasn’t gotten your attention in the last week with an actual earthquake and hurricane (all in the same week), then with the way the world is now, you too may have circumstances that are shaking you to your core –
Look up!
More tomorrow…
(Will you contact me if you prayed this prayer today. I want to encourage you. We can talk via email or we can talk live.)
