- The verses below are also a good introduction before praying.
“The disciples saw Jesus do many other miraculous signs in addition to the ones recorded in this book. But these are written so that you may continue to believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by believing in him you will have life by the power ofhis name.” John 20:30
“For God days, ‘At just the right time, I heard you. On the day of salvation, I helped you.’ Indeed, the ‘right time’ is now. Today is the day of salvation.” 2 Corinthians 6:2 (Raising your hand, ask the audience..) Who needs a Savior?
Let’s Pray:
• God, You created us. (Pause)
• You love us. (Pause)
• You desire to have a relationship with us as our Father and Savior. (Pause)
• You died to pay the price for our sins. And because You have overcome death we can too when we receive You as Lord!
• If you would like to receive Jesus as your Savior and forgiveness of sins, you can ask him now. Let’s say this prayer together:
• Have the youth stand behind you and ask them (if they would like) to repeat this prayer after you.
• Our Father in Heaven. (Repeat)
• Thank You for loving us. (Repeat)
• Thank You, Jesus, for dying on the cross. (Repeat)
• I have sinned please forgive me. (Repeat)
• Your death paid for my sins. (Repeat)
• Please come and be the Lord of my life. (Repeat)
• In Jesus’ name, amen.” (Repeat)
“To all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God.” (John 1:12) By praying this prayer, you have become a child of God.
“So now we can rejoice in our wonderful new relationship with God because our Lord Jesus Chris has made us friends of God.” (Romans 5:11)
The number of those who receive Jesus is up to God. This may not be revealed to us; however, we trust God is the “Lord of the harvest” and seeds are being planted so rejoice at what He is doing!
It is the same with my word. I send it out, and it always produces fruit. It will accomplish all I want it to, and it will prosper everywhere I send it.” Isaiah 55:11
