Why do we need to be saved ?
Our Fellowship With God
In the beginning, God created us, and we were made in His own image.
We were created in perfect fellowship with God and given dominion over all things. (See Genesis 1:26-28)
However, man decided, when he was tempted, that he wanted to be as God, knowing good and evil.
Man then lost fellowship with God because of disobedience to God’s command.
Man’s fall into sin separated him from God and resulted in the awakening of:
sin, sickness, sorrow, grief, fear, frustration, confusion, despair, labor, pain, and death.
The worst thing of all was that man had separated himself from God, and there existed no way for him to return to fellowship with Him.
Before, we had no choice but to serve Satan.
But God has provided us a choice: to believe on Jesus and be saved (to have the life of God),
or to refuse Him and be condemned to die eternally with Satan.
“Today I have set before you blessing and cursing, life and death; choose life.“
God’s desire is that we choose life in His Son, but He will never violate our will.
He desires that we love Him freely and willingly.
Those who are condemned have chosen to refuse His gift.
Those who are saved have chosen to accept His gift, and to serve Jesus instead of Satan.
Prayer of Salvation
Dear Heavenly Father,
I come to you in the name of Jesus, for your Word says,
“…whoever comes to me I will never drive away” (John 6:37).
So I know you won’t cast me out, but take me in, and I thank You for it.
You also said:
“Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Romans 10:13).
I am calling on Your name, so I know I am saved now.
I confess with my mouth, aloud, that “Jesus is Lord.”
I believe in my heart that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.
I believe He was raised from the dead so I can have life with God.
I confess Him now as MY Lord.
Because your Word says:
“For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified” (Romans 10:10)
“…in Him we might become the righteousness of God” (2 Corinthians 5:21),
I am saved.
THANK YOU, LORD, for loving me and making me Your child.
