My dear friend,
If you are reading this today, I believe it is not by accident. I believe God is drawing you to Himself, and that He may want to save you today.
Do you know how much God loves you, my friend? There is nothing in the world that could ever separate you from His love. Period. Hands-down. I would love for you to become saved, have everlasting life in HIS name, and spend your eternity with Jesus Christ.
Below are the "ABC's of Salvation."
A= Accept or acknowledge that you are a sinner before God. As it is written: there is none righteous, no, not one; " (Romans 3:10 NKJV), For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. (Romans 3:23 NKJV) and For the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord (Romans 6:23).
B= Believe in your heart that Jesus Christ is Lord and was raised from the dead. that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. (Romans 10:9-10 NKJV) But as many as received him, to them he gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name; (John 1:12 NKJV) For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son that whoever believes in him should not perish but have everlasting life. (John 3:16 NKJV)
C= Call upon the name of the Lord. For "whoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." (Romans 10:13 NKJV) And it shall come to pass that whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved. (Acts 2:21 NKJV)
D= Do what God says to do in His Holy Word the Bible; namely, obey the teachings of Jesus. "Therefore, whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: (Matthew 7:24 NKJV)
E= Experience the fellowship of being with true believers in Jesus Christ. "Go to a solid, Bible-teaching church." And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage one another, especially now as the day of His return is drawing near. (Hebrews 10:25 NLT)
I would like to lead you in a prayer of salvation. Would you like to receive Jesus into your life? Would you like to know that when you die you will go to heaven? Would you like to trust today in Jesus Christ to be your Lord and Savior? Would you like to follow Jesus and His way of life? If so, then I would like to lead you in a brief prayer below:
Dear Lord, I accept before You that I am a sinner, and have sinned against You in words, actions or attitudes, and in by not living righteously before You. I ask You dear Lord for Your forgiveness for all of my sins, and I believe Jesus Christ has forgiven me and cleansed me from all my sin. Thank you Jesus for forgiving me for all my sins, and I ask You to come fill me up now with Your Holy Spirit; help me live for You from this moment forward. I call upon Your name, Lord; save me, and change me today into becoming all that You have made me to be. And, make me born-again. In Jesus's name I pray this prayer for salvation. Amen.
If you prayed this prayer, I would love to know! Also, let a pastor or small group Bible study leader know that you prayed the above prayer. I encourage you to read your Bible daily, and see what wonderful things God will do in your life. Never ever EVER give up on the Lord~always keep trusting in the Lord with all your heart~leaning not on your own understanding~and in all your ways acknowledge him~know him~and he will direct your path. Proverbs 3:5-6 I love you my friend, and thank God for you. Welcome to the family of God!
Most Sincerely,
Monica Velez
