Receive Him Would you like to receive Jesus Christ as your Savior from sin and Lord of your life? If so, would you pray right now? You might want to pray this prayer: "Heavenly Father, I know I have sinned. I have not obeyed Your Word. I have tried to run my own life, ignoring You and Your will for me. I have tried to decide for myself what is right and wrong. I know I deserve Your wrath and punishment and that I am lost unless You save me. Thank you for sending Your Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, to pay for my sin and guilt. Thank you for raising Him from the dead and giving Him authority over my life. I receive Him as my Savior and Lord. I receive Your free gift of eternal life in Christ. I will turn from my sinful life to serve You, my Creator and Redeemer." Continue your prayer by telling God what you are thinking and feeling.
