The Bible tells us that there is only one name under heaven by which people can be saved, and that is the name of Jesus, the only Son of our Heavenly Father. He is the only sacrifice for our sins and the only salvation for our souls. He is the only solution to our sin problem and gives us the only answer to the problem of what to do with our sin. Jesus is our only source of hope. You see, Jesus is just one man who changed the lives of all people forever and ever.Only one man: his name is Jesus.
Giving our hearts to Jesus is the most important decision any of us will ever make. There are three things we must do to give our hearts to Jesus:
A – Early
First we must admit to Jesus that we are a sinner. We are all sinners, and that sin separates us from God. Romans 3:23 says, “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.”
C – Give in
Second, we must confess our sins. Romans 10:9-10 tells us, “If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart a man believes in righteousness, and with the mouth confession comes to salvation.” When we confess our sin, we agree with God that we are a sinner and that only He can save us.
T – Tillid
Third, if we trust Jesus, we can be saved by faith. The word 'trust' is a beautiful word. It means that we accept what God has said and believe in our hearts that God raised Jesus from the dead after He died on the cross for our sins.
The Bible says that when we trust Jesus as our Savior, He takes on the sin of the world. This is exactly what happened when God presented Jesus to us on the cross. Jesus took my sin and your sin upon Himself, and when He died, the sin of the world died with Him. When you say, “Lord Jesus, I repent of my sin. By faith I receive You into my heart,” you receive what Jesus already did for you on the cross, and you receive complete and absolute forgiveness.
Do you know him? If you want to accept Jesus as your Savior, you can pray a prayer similar to this:
Dear Lord Jesus, I believe that You died on the cross especially for me. I know you love me very much. I admit that I am a sinner and confess my sin to you. Please come into my heart and save me as I repent of my sin. I confess that you alone are Lord and I believe that God raised you from the dead. I trust you by faith. Now, based on the Bible, I thank you for coming into my heart. I believe you saved me and wrote my name in God's book in heaven. From this moment on, I will never doubt your Word again. In Jesus' name, Amen.
