There’s this person that likes a particular organization. She goes to their meetings sometimes, she respects the leader, she believes what they believe, but she never joins the organization to become a member. That’s what happens when someone simply goes to church, respects God, believes the Bible, but never says the prayer of salvation to become a member of the body of Christ. Just going to the meeting doesn’t make you a member. God has a membership process called the prayer of salvation and membership has its benefits. Membership not only saves our soul from eternal fire but also entitles us to certain benefits called the promises of God. Psalms 103:2-3 tells us to forget not his benefits, who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases. Romans 10:9 lays out the membership process. Below is a sample prayer of salvation based on Romans 10:9.
Prayer of Salvation:
Lord you said in your word that we all have sinned so Lord I repent for all of my sins. I renounce all covenants with evil and all false gods. Lord I confess with my mouth that Jesus is the Son of God and Jesus Christ is Lord. I believe in my heart that Jesus died for my sins because he loved me so much, that he defeated death, and rose again with all authority in his hands, which he gave to me as a Believer in Christ. Lord I believe your word, that according to my confession and my belief, I am saved. Thank you Lord for saving me and making me a member of the body of Christ and an heir of God through Christ. You are my Father and I am your child. Thank you Lord for all the benefits that you have made available to me as a Believer in Christ. I receive all of my benefits and my full inheritance including healing in my body and deliverance from poverty or lack in every area of my life. In Jesus name. Amen.
*P.S. If you said this prayer for the first time go tell somebody because the word admonishes us not to be ashamed of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
