A Prayer To Receive Christ

Lord, thank you for loving me and coming to earth to show us the way. I believe You died to pay for my sin and You were raised from the dead to give me eternal life. I want to turn from my sin and place my faith in You right now. Please come into my life and be my Savior and Lord. Show me how to live and help me to follow you always. In your Name I pray, amen.

Some Important Things To Remember

Praying to receive Jesus as your Lord and Savior is optional. In other words, God will not force you to have a relationship with Him. It is a free gift of life that you can accept or refuse. With your decision comes consequences, but ultimately the choice is yours.

When a person prays to receive Christ, two things become a reality:

1. Jesus comes into your life and begins to change your heart. What's more, He will never leave you: "...Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you." Hebrews 13:5

2. The Bible promises that all who receive Christ also receive eternal life: "I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life." I John 5:13

What Happens When Someone Prays to Receive Christ?

If you have prayed to receive Christ, you have received the greatest gift there is to offer:

Your sins are now forgiven. (read Colossians 1:14)
You have been welcomed into the family of God as His child. (read John 1:12)
You have received eternal life. (read John 5:24)
You have agreed to be restored into a right relationship with Him. With your permission, He will shower your life with His blessings and freely express in ways you have not yet imagined His love for you. Your purpose for living has now been fulfilled. (read John 10:10, I Thessalonians 5:18)
