Heavenly Father In Name of Jesus Christ,

come to You admitting that I am a sinner and I repent. I believe that Jesus Christ is Your Son and that He died for my sins and rose again on the third day. I confess Jesus as my Lord and Savior and ask Him to come into my heart and save me.

“Forgive me of my sins, cleanse me from all unrighteousness, and help me to follow You all the days of my life. Thank You for the gift of eternal life.

In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

Salvation, according to the Bible (KJV), is the process of confessing faith in Jesus Christ, repenting of sin, and receiving eternal life through God’s grace. The Bible provides clear steps and scriptures that outline the confession and belief necessary for salvation:

1. Acknowledge Sin

• Romans 3:23: “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.”
  • Recognize that everyone has sinned and is in need of salvation.

2. Believe in Jesus Christ

• John 3:16: “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
  • Salvation begins by believing that Jesus is the Son of God who died for sins and was raised from the dead.
• Acts 16:31: “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.”
  • Faith in Jesus is essential to being saved.

3. Confess with Your Mouth

• Romans 10:9-10: “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.”
  • Confessing Jesus as Lord is a public declaration of faith.

4. Repent of Sin

• Acts 3:19: “Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out.”
  • Repentance involves turning away from sin and turning toward God in obedience and humility.
• 1 John 1:9: “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”
  • Confessing sins brings forgiveness and cleansing.

5. Receive Salvation by Grace Through Faith

• Ephesians 2:8-9: “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.”
  • Salvation is a free gift from God that cannot be earned but must be received by faith.

6. Call Upon the Name of the Lord

• Romans 10:13: “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
  • Simply calling on Jesus in faith ensures salvation.

Example Prayer of Salvation (Based on Scriptures)

Here’s a sample prayer of confession and belief:

Heavenly Father,
I come to You admitting that I am a sinner. I believe that Jesus Christ is Your Son and that He died for my sins and rose again on the third day. I confess Jesus as my Lord and Savior and ask Him to come into my heart and save me.
Forgive me of my sins, cleanse me from all unrighteousness, and help me to follow You all the days of my life. Thank You for the gift of eternal life.
In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

7. Assurance of Salvation

• John 5:24: “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.”
  • Once you confess and believe, you can have confidence in your salvation.

Salvation is a simple but profound act of faith, confession, and repentance, leading to a life in Christ and the assurance of eternal life.
