A New Start
If you have seriously considered these six steps and have prayed the prayer above, or one like it, honestly and sincerely, then God’s promise to you is that you have been forgiven. His Son Jesus will have come into your life and now lives within you by His Spirit.
Welcome to the largest family in the world – the international Christian family! You are now a Christian, a child of God’s family. A bright and exciting, although sometimes challenging, future lies ahead of you, which will one day lead to a home with God in Heaven – for ever.
Keep a note of this prayer, as you may find it helpful as a reminder of what Jesus Christ has done for you, the commitment you have made to Him today and the journey you have begun.
You may not feel any different at the moment, but do not focus on feelings. Trust the following promises found in the Bible:
Jesus said:
"...whoever comes to me I will never drive away." (John 6:37)
"...he who believes has everlasting life." (John 6:47)
"...if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” (Romans10:9)
