The salvation prayer
Pray it out loud if you can. The words are not magic — Jesus saves, not a sentence. But saying it out loud is the moment you stop considering and start trusting.
Father God, I come to You just as I am.
I admit that I have sinned and gone my own way, and I cannot save myself.
I believe that Jesus Christ is Your Son, that He died on the cross for my sins and that You raised Him from the dead.
Today I turn from my old life and I ask You to forgive me.
Jesus, come into my life. I receive You as my Lord and my Saviour.
Thank You for Your grace, Your forgiveness and Your new life in me.
From today I belong to You. Amen.
