God is inviting you to come home into a relationship with Him...
If you don't know God or if you feel far from Him, we want you to know that He has an open invitation to you today. He wants a relationship with you. Watch this video and continue through this page to find out how to accept His invitation...
The God of all life wants you to come home to Him, and it is the desire of our hearts for everyone visiting this website to know that. There are a couple of places in the Bible which make that very clear. ‘For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.’ Some folks when they read a message like that think it can’t possibly be true. How can it be so simple - to believe in God’s Son, Jesus, is all that’s required to live forever within God’s family, adopted as His beloved son or daughter. Knowing about themselves, they believe (and maybe they’ve been told) God is angry and only wants to punish them. The very next sentence in the Bible says otherwise: God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through Him (John 3:16-17). And He did that because He LOVES you.
It is true that we have not lived lives pleasing to God. The Bible tells us that all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God in Romans 3:23. And it tells us further there are dire consequences, for the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal LIFE in Christ (Romans 6:23). That truth can be hard to believe but God is prepared to give you the faith needed to be able to believe it. We read in Ephesians 2:8-9: God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it.
It's stated even more clearly in 1 Timothy 1:15, “This is a trustworthy saying, and everyone should accept it: “Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners”. And Jesus himself said, “For the Son of Man came to seek and save those who are lost.”
So we invite you to COME HOME to God today by asking him to forgive you and inviting Jesus to become your Savior and Lord. That’s called repentance which actually means changing how you think, in this case about yourself and about God. And this is what it means to be saved: you are forgiven of your past actions, healed of past hurts and even freed from addictions and bad habits. Some of that happens right away: This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun! (2 Corinthians 5:17)
To accept His invitation and begin your relationship with God, we encourage you speak this prayer of surrender to God:
Lord Jesus, I want you to be the Lord of my life. Right now I confess to you my sins and ask you to forgive them all, canceling my debt to God. Help me turn from those behaviors as you free me from all my guilt and shame. Please fill me with power from your Holy Spirit to live my life for you in a fresh way. Thank you, Jesus, for your sacrifice on the cross and for the gift of eternal life. AMEN.
If you have prayed this prayer of surrender and accepted His invitation,
Know that Father God is speaking over you, “Welcome home, my child.”
