This plan; starts by first having a relationship with God. The bible calls this Salvation, literally being rescued from spending an eternity separated from Him. Rescued from an eternity without knowing His love for you, also rescued from a life here on Earth without experiencing the perfect plan He has for you.
To come into a relationship with God, we must be forgiven of our Sin. Sin was a word used to describe missing the target for life. Sin for us, is all the unwise choices we have made from living life our own way.
The Good news is that the Apostle John tells us in John 3:16;
“For this is how much God loved the world (you and me)—He gave His one and only, unique Son as a gift. So now everyone who believes in Him will never perish but experience everlasting life.”
Jesus paid the price for our Sin; all we must do is accept this free gift. Doing this, we will begin an amazing life and relationship with God. Accepting this gift is simple.
The Apostle Paul writes this in the book of Romans 10:9;
“For if you declare with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will experience salvation.”
If you are not sure whether you are right with God, or you know in fact that you need Jesus in your life, you can choose to follow Him right now by praying a prayer of surrender to Jesus...
“Dear God,
I believe in you. Thank you for sending your Son, Jesus Christ, who willingly gave His life for me. I believe that His sacrifice and finished work on the cross, has paid the price for me living my life my own way, please forgive me. I thank you that I have started a relationship with you. Help me to live, from this day forward, in the plan and purpose you have for my life.
In Jesus Name,
Amen.”
