How to Receive Jesus as Lord and Savior
Scriptures about Salvation
Romans 3:23 - for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, NKJV
Romans 6:23 - For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. NKJV
Romans 5:8 - But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. NKJV
Romans 10:9-13 - that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the Scripture says, "Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame." 12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. 13 For "whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved."

Prayer to Receive Jesus as Savior
Dear Heavenly Father,
I come to you in the name of Jesus,
Your Word says, those who come to me I will in no wise cast out (John 6:37), so I know you won’t cast me out, but You take me in and I thank you for it.
You said in Your Word, “Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Romans 10:13). I am calling on Your Name, so I know You have saved me now.
You also said “…if I confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in my heart that God has raised Him from the dead, I will be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation” (Romans 10:9-10). I believe in my heart Jesus Christ is the Son of God. I believe that He was raised from the dead for my justification, and I confess Him now as my Lord.
Because Your Word says, “…with the heart man believeth unto righteousness…” and I do believe with my heart, I have now become the righteousness of God in Christ (2Corithians 5:21)… And I am saved!
