Step 1 - Lord Jesus, My Savior
One day I said to Lord Jesus, “Lord Jesus, I accept You as my Lord and my Savior.” I wanted Him to be the Lord of my life.
I stopped going my way. I turned around and started following Lord Jesus. Why do I want to follow Lord Jesus?
Because I have accepted Him as my Savior. A savior is a person who saves or rescues me from something. If I am drowning and someone saves me, he is my savior.
Lord Jesus is my Savior because He has saved me from all my sins.
I sin every time I break one of the moral laws given by God. Soon I have a mountain of sins on me – sins against God.
These sins separate me from a holy God. I cannot go to Him and my prayers will not reach Him. God will punish me for them. What am I to do?
One day I hear the good news – That Lord Jesus Himself came down to earth from heaven to take my punishment! That He died on the cross in my place! I hear that He came alive again! Three days after being killed and buried, Lord Jesus rose up alive again bodily! And He is now in heaven. I hear that He is the Supreme Ruler of all the heavens and the earth!
Bible says: “Believe in Lord Jesus and you will be saved.” Acts 16: 31
I believe this good news of Lord Jesus with all my heart!
Prayer: “Lord Jesus, You are my Savior and my God. I worship You.”
