Confess
Another word for confess is declare. It’s like declaring your love for someone, only this time that person is Jesus. Your declaration can be in the form of a prayer like the one below.
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. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Romans 10:9-10
Acknowledge
At some point we all come to realize we’re not as good as we once thought, and sometimes, we do things that are just not right. That’s called sin. The great thing is once we acknowledge we have sinned we can do something about it.
For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Romans 3:23
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Romans 6:23
Believe
The good news is that Jesus came to save you from sin and give you eternal life. The even better news is that all you have to do is believe in Jesus. Believing in Jesus means you believe he came, he died for your sins, and rose again.
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. John 3:16-17
Pray this Prayer
Dear Lord Jeus, I acknowledge I am a sinner. I believe you dieD for my sins. I confess you Jesus as my personal Lord and Savior. Thank you for saving me. Amen!
