Do you know that God loves you? He cares about you so much
that He desires a personal relationship with you. Jesus is the
answer to the questions and struggles that you may be facing.
He has a plan for your life that will prosper you and not harm
you.
Isn't that good news?
You can have a relationship with God by following these
simple steps:
1. Know that God loves you.
"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only
Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have
eternal life." (John 3:16)
2. Recognize that your sin is what separates you from having
a personal relationship with God.
"For all have sinned and come short of the Glory of
God." (Romans 3:23)
3. Believe
that Jesus Christ died and rose again so that your sins might
be forgiven.
"But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While
we were still sinners, Christ died for us." (Romans 5:8,9)
"For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is
eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." (Romans 6:23)
4. Understand
that you must personally trust Jesus Christ to be the Savior
of your life.
"...whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall
be saved." (Acts 2:21)
"That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is
Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him
from the dead, you will be saved." (Romans 10:9,10)
5. Ask
Jesus Christ to come into your life as your Savior through
a simple prayer:
"Dear God, I know that my sin separates me from you.
Thank you for sending Jesus to save me. I believe that He
died for my sins and rose again. I repent of my sins and ask
you to come into my life. Thank you for having a relationship
with me. In Jesus' name. Amen"
That's
all. Wasn't that easy? You are now going to enjoy a lifelong
relationship with a God who will never leave you nor forsake
you. By believing in Jesus as your Savior, you can know that
you have eternal life. (1 John 5:13)
