Occasionally, I would pass by Juanita's house (I knew her as June) on my morning walks and see her on many days seating outside on her front porch. One morning I asked her how she was doing and she told me she had stage 4 lung cancer. I told her I would be praying for her. During times of prayer I felt an urgency to find out if she knew Jesus as her Lord and Savior. One morning I asked her if she would like to say the sinners prayer and accept Jesus as her Lord and Savior. Thursday, September 13th was the day of her salvation. Praise be to the Lord Jesus Christ! A few short weeks later June went to spend eternity with her Lord. We never know when the Lord will call us home. Salvation is for everyone. Jesus died for all and is waiting for us to respond to His calling. If you would like to accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior, as June did, you can by saying the same prayer .
Dear Lord, I accept that I am a sinner. I'm sorry for my sin and ask your forgiveness. Holy Spirit, cleanse me and help me live a holy life. I accept the sacrifice of your son, Jesus who died for me. I take Him now as my Lord and Savior. Thank you. Amen!
If you said this prayer your next step is to let someone know. Romans 10: 9 &10. "If you declare with your mouth, Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved."
