Is the desire of your heart that Jesus Christ be the Lord of your life?

1. Realize that God loves you and wants to give you peace and an abundant life.  John 3:16 tells us “for God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.”  Do you want peace and eternal life?

2. Admit that while God created you in His image, you have willingly chosen to disobey, to not allow Him to be in charge of your life and to give you the gift He has for you in Jesus.  The Bible tells us, “all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” (Romans 3:23) Sin (disobedience) separates you from God.

3. Know that because God loves you so much He
makes a way for you to be in right relationship to Him through Jesus.  The Bible tells us, “God demonstrates His own love for us in this: while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” (Romans 5:8)  Jesus died on the cross to forgive all your sins and makes things right with God, so that you can be at peace.

4. Receive into your life all that God has done for you in Jesus.  To do that you must make a decision.  The Bible says, “If you confess with your mouth that, “Jesus is Lord” and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.” (Romans 10:9)  Jesus IS Lord, but He is not your personal Lord and Savior until you accept or receive Him into your life.  To do that:
   - Admit your need for God
   - Be willing to turn from your sin
   - Believe Jesus died for you on the Cross and rose from the grave
   - Invite Jesus to come into your heart and life

SALVATION PRAYER
Dear God in Heaven,

I know that I am a sinner, and am sorry for my sins and need Your forgiveness.  I believe Your only Son, Jesus, died on the cross to forgive my sins and I now turn from them.  I confess Jesus as the Lord of my life and believe You raised Him from the dead.  This very moment I accept Jesus Christ as my personal Savior and according to His Word, right now I am saved, put in right relationship to You, given peace and life abundant and eternal.  Thank you, Jesus, for Your love for me.  Lord, transform my life so that I may bring glory and honor to You.  Amen.
