A Prayer of Acceptance The following is an example of prayer that is typical when someone accepts Christ.
Was your prayer to God at the moment similar?
Perhaps you can use this sample in the future when you are praying with someone special who is at that moment of acceptance.
Dear God,
Thank you for loving me. I confess that I have sinned against you.
I do believe that your Son, Jesus Christ, died on the cross to pay for my sins, and I believe that you raised him from among the dead.
I now put my faith in Christ to forgive and take away my sins.
I confess that Jesus is my Savior and that He is my Lord.
Thank you for the gift of eternal life!
I pray this in the name of Christ,
Amen
Isn’t it beautiful – so simple how we can give ourselves, our lives to Jesus.
Next time, we add the dimension of receiving Christ’s helper, his Holy Spirit.
We are traveling to Guatemala tomorrow, so the next posting is planned for November 5, 2009.
Many blessings,
