How to receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior:  | Admit your need (I am a sinner). I have fallen short of the person God intended me to be. I believe He must have so much more for me. |  | Be willing to change direction (Repent). I realize I cannot stay the way I am and please God. I want to change the direction of my life. |  | Believe that Jesus Christ died on the cross for you, and was risen from the dead (Accept God’s gift). I always heard that Jesus suffered and died on the cross. I just never realized that He gave Himself up for me! |  | Through prayer, you can invite Jesus Christ to come in and take over your life through the Holy Spirit. (Surrender) I am tired of trying to live my life in my own understanding and my own strength. I want to live according to God’s plan, not my own. |
If you would like to ask Jesus into your heart, you can pray the prayer below.
Dear Jesus, I know that I am a sinner And I am in need of your forgiveness. I believe you died for my sins. I want to turn from my sins. Will you please help me, Lord? I invite you to come into my heart and take control of my life. I want to trust and follow you as my Lord and Savior. Thank you, Jesus, for loving me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
