Prayer of Salvation
Heavenly Father,
I have sinned against you! I repent of everything I’ve ever done that was against your will (you can also confess specific sins here). God, I thank you for sending Jesus Christ to die for my sins. I welcome you into my life and into my heart. Please cleanse me of all unrighteousness and lead me into all truth, Your truth. Please begin to work in me so that I may look more like You from the inside out. I lay down the life I have. and choose to pick up the life you have for me.
Thank you God for receiving me!
In Jesus’ name,
Amen 🙏🏾
Salvation Scriptures
John 3:16
God’s love & Jesus’ sacrifice
Romans 10:9-10
How salvation works
Luke 15:11-32
For those who strayed away and are coming back home
Who is the Holy Spirit?
John 14:15-17
“If you love Me, keep My commandments. And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever— the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you.
John 14:26
But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
John 16:13
However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come.
The Holy Spirit is the helper and comforter that Jesus left for those that have received salvation. The Holy Spirit helps us to know God’s Will by guiding us into all truth according to God’s Word and God’s divine plans for each of our lives (which are in line with the Word, of course). When we quench the Holy Spirit, we extinguish His influence over our lives in a particular area, or many areas. Because He is the one that was sent to lead us into all truth, we put ourselves in danger of being outside of God’s will.

Closing Prayer
Lord, we repent of all of our sins and iniquities against you.
We repent for quenching the Holy Spirit’s leading in our lives and allowing ourselves to be overtaken by sin.
Father, we thank you for sending Jesus to die so that we may have our sins forgiven.
Please forgive us and cleanse us of all unrighteousness as you promised to do in 1 John 1:9.
God, we ask you to strip us of any idols we may have that stand against us following your will and your way. Please take your rightful place in our lives and help us to willfully submit to your perfect plans for us, plans to prosper us and not to harm us, to give us a future and a hope.
If there is anything that we love, but you hate, please take it away from us and give us the willingness to let go, for you said in your Word that it is You who worketh in us both to will and to do of Your good pleasure.
God, I prophesy over us today, that according to Ezekiel 36:24-27, You will
For I will take you from among the nations, gather you out of all countries, and bring you into your own land.
Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean; I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols.
I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh.
I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them.
Help us to be radically obedient to the leading of your Spirit within us.
We thank you for being such a loving God who cares enough not to want anyone to perish, but for all to come to repentance.
Please receive our repentant hearts today and lead us in a new direction, along the path of righteousness for your names’ sake. Realign us to the plans you had for us before you formed us in our mothers’ womb.
Thank you for being our God and embracing us as your people.
We love you and we honor you, Lord!
In Jesus’ name, Amen!
