I asked about a church for a new believer last night, and today I want to pray to God about salvation, and I am asking about the sinners prayer and why must we pray it.

If you are lost and in search of salvation, Jesus Christ is the only way to get it. In order to get to the Father in Heaven, we must go through the son Jesus through acceptance of Him being our Savior. We are proud to have you here with us and are willing to lead you to Christ right here and right now.
First you must admit that you are a sinner and acknowlege that Jesus Christ died on the cross for your sins. Ask Jesus to forgive you of your sins. Then you can invite our Lord Jesus to enter into your heart to live and to be your guide through out the rest of your life. Once you have done this, you now have ever lasting life in the precious name of Jesus. Now go out into the world, and spread the good news, that Jesus is alive and well, living in your heart as He shines through you in life. It's not over yet, you must continue building your relationship with the Lord each and every day. Talk to Him daily in prayer and ask Him what it is He wants you to do today, then obey Him. Draw closer to the Lord with every day that passes, asking for forgivness for your sins each day, and then thank him for that forgivness. We must never take our Lord's love or forgivness for granted.
Praise the Lord's Holy name daily as He continues to lead you throughout your life, until He calls you home.
Father,
We thank you for sending us Your Son Jesus Christ to freely give up His life, laying it down for us so that all of our sins can be forgiven in His Holy name. We give you all the praise and all the Glory for all that is good in our life, and for the trials and tribulations we must sustain , that give us all that Spiritual work out we need to stay close to you as we follow you in your footsteps; until you call us home to be with you in your Kingdom with your Son Jesus. In His precious name of Jesus. amen
If you prayed this prayer, record today's date and rest in the assurance of spending eternity with God.
I do pray that you infact did accept Jesus as your savior, and know how very loved you are by Him. He went through a lot to get you to this point in your life, and I praise the Lord for your reaching out to HIm today. God bless you in your new life with Jesus, as He takes you by the hand, leading you through out your life, until He calls you home. In the precoius name of Jesus, amen

There really isn't a sinners prayer so to speak but Omorian T summed it up quite well. Just lay it before God in your own words. I prayed a similar prayer with a young man a few weeks ago when he accepted Christ as his Savior. May God bless you and keep my brother I'll pray for you too.
P.S. when I accepted Christ my life went from bad to worse for a while. I believe it was the devil trying too shake me and my faith. If that should happen to you I encourage you to hang on and remember that God will never leave or forsake you. Remember the commitment you made and the commitment that Christ has made to you

Who's salvation? Your own? You are not supposed to pray for things you need, God sees all and provides what is need. Maybe you want to look a little more closely at what you are getting into. What sinners prayer? Everybody sins. Try reading the book a couple of times before you make this decision.

Actually there is no such thing as a specific sinners prayer.
Any prayer that asks for forgiveness for your sins,
Asks Jesus Christ into your heart and life,
Asks God to reveal to you the sins you are unaware of,
And then true repentance, which means to turn away from those things would constitute a sinners prayer.
In the name above all names Jesus Christ, Amen.

The sinner's prayer. merely say the magic words and you'd be saved. thank you Groucho Marks. i even have faith the sinner's prayer has lead greater people to a pretend experience of salvation than something devil ought to dream of. regardless of the certainty that, possibly he's at the back of all of it. yet my wager is a nicely-meaning Christian theory it up on an identical time as analyzing some advertising and marketing books, searching for a clean thank you to try this that's the pastime of the Holy Spirit. We people are so stupid. To think of God needs our help to save souls. incredibly he will use us whilst He needs to, any way He needs to. We merely must be obedient. anybody is incredibly saved whilst their hearts cry out to the Lord for His mercy, ashamed of their sins, and worried for a clean existence in Christ Jesus. The words come, no longer as a nicely rehearsed monologue or the repetition of a slickly produced capture-all prayer, yet from the middle the place eloquence takes a decrease back seat to sincerity.

There is no such thing as a sinners prayer! If you are serious about this, just ask God to show you the way to salvation and ask for His guidance. And good luck on your journey to salvation.

God Bless you brother, God Bless you!!!!
Lord, I know I am a sinner, and I know without you I am nothing. I ask you Jesus to come into my heart, cleanse me of my sins, that I may follow and worship you until my death. In the name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost Amen.
I will pray for you tonight!

Wow...looking for a church before you need one...that's a new one. The sinners prayer is something the church came up with to help people take that first step toward God. We only need to take one step to Him and He comes the rest of the way. Sooo, welcome into the family!

It is all about you and what you want to say to the Lord. You may begin by saying something like this......
"Lord Jesus, I need you in my life. I have lived a life of loneliness, a life separated from you, a life separated from God and a life not pleasing in your eyes. I know I have sinned, and have done many wrong things against you - but now I come to you Lord Jesus, and I ask you to please forgive me. I believe you came to save sinner, and you died in their place and were raised form the dead. You are alive today and I know you hear me at this moment. I don't know what to expect from you Lord Jesus and I don't know what you expect from me also. Please reveal yourself to me and help me know you personally. I want you to be my Lord and Savior. I believe that God raised you from the dead the third day and now I confess you as my Lord and Savior."
If you believe in your heart and confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, you shall be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

Here is life's most important question: If you were to die tonight, do you know for sure whether or not you will go to heaven? The Bible was written that you might know that you know that you know that you know the answer to this important question.
Your life is of tremendous value:
Your worth to God is derived from the fact that you are made in His image.
"So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him, male and female He created them." Genesis 1:27
The Problem:
Unfortunately all of us as human beings have sinned against and offended God.
"All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." Romans 3:23
Because of sin we deserve eternal punishment.
The Solution:
God loves you very much and has come to pay the price for your sin.
" Christ died for our sins...he was buried and He rose again the third day." 1 Corinthians 15:3,4
As a matter of fact, the following Bible verse explains simply why Jesus came.
"Christ Jesus came to save sinners." 1 Timothy 1:15
His desire is to save you from an eternal punishment into an eternal friendship with Him.
Your Response:
You can invite Jesus Christ into your heart and life right now.
" 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." Romans 10:9
A Simple Prayer:
You can talk to God right now and receive this wonderful gift. Pray something like this:
" God, I confess that I am a sinner. I acknowledge my sin against You. I believe that you sent Jesus to save me from my sin. I open My heart to You right now. I believe that You sent Jesus to save me from my sins. I confess Him as my Lord and Savior right now. Jesus come into my heart and life today. Help me follow You all the days of my Life. Amen."
