Don't think that you have sinned so far that you cannot find redemption. There's no one who is gone so far that if their heart reaches out to God, God will not speak to them and bring them to Him.
Would you like to have peace with God today? He's speaking to you at this moment. Hold steady for a moment. God wants you to have something wonderful. He wants you to be a part of the family of God. He will give you joy unspeakable and full of glory. If you want it, He's holding it out to you. It is a free gift; He paid the price. You can have it freely, if you believe.
The real price is that you take the old man with all of its sin and dirt and confusion and all of the trouble and tears and you give it to Jesus. You take a new man and a new woman, created in the image of God, and you join the family of God.
If you want that, right now I want you to know Him in a new way, so bow your head and pray with me now if you would like it, and you can ask Jesus to takeover. I am not trying to suggest that you join some church. I am talking about the family of the Father of Light, to be an adopted child of the Living God. Bow your head with me right now wherever you are. Husband and wife, boyfriend, girlfriend, children, parents pray this prayer with me. Pray it out loud or silently.
The Prayer of Salvation
'Jesus, you know what is going on in my life. You see deep down inside of my soul. You have seen the tears and heard the cries and seen the sin. You have been there when I have done things that I am ashamed of. Lord, right now, I bring it all to You and I ask for the cleansing of the blood of Jesus Christ.
'Thank you that You love me. I receive Your love. I receive the fact that You died for my sins. At this moment, not only do I take You as my Savior, but I make You the Lord of my life. Come Lord Jesus, live in my heart, and from this moment on I am yours. Thank you, Lord, that You have heard my prayer. Thank you, Lord, that You have come into my heart.
'Father, for those who prayed with me right now, may the power of the Holy Spirit fill them. May they know cleansing as never before. May You put Your arms around them and fill them with the joy of the Spirit of the Living God. Thank you, Father. Thank you, Lord.
'In Jesus' name, amen and amen.'
