Steps to Deliverance





Acknowledge your need

Admit that you have sinned and that you need God's help. The Bible tells us, "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God " (Romans 3:23). One man, whose prayer is recorded in Luke 18:13 said simply "God be merciful to me a sinner."

Confess and Repent

Be genuinely sorry for sins you have cmmitted and ask God to forgive them. God's Word promises, "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness" (1 John 1:9).It also says, "Repent ye therefore,and be converted, that your sins may ne blotted out"(Acts 3:19).

Forsake the sins of your past

Determine that with God's help you are going to turn away from all sin in your life. We read in Isaiah 55:7, "Let the wicked forsake his way and the unrighteous man his thoughts, and let him return unto the lord, and he will abundantly pardon." That is a promise!

Believe in Jesus Christ

First, you must believe that Jesus died for your sins and that He is alive today. Then, when you have honestly and sincerely taken the stepss above, believe that God will hear your prayer and save you. "For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son' that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have ever lasting life.(john 3:16)

Invite Jesus Christ into your heart and life

You can be a child of God today if you reach out to him with all of your heart and take these steps in complete honesty and surrender . Pray a prayer like the one found in the Book  (John 18:13).

Get a copy of God's Book, the Bible

Begin by reading the book of John in the New Testament. You will learn about Jesus life on this earth and how He died to make a way for you to be united with him.

Start talking to God

He wants to hear from you and walk with you through each day. You can talk to Him just like you talk to your other friends.

Seek Christian companion

The fellowship of others who have committed thier lives to Jesus will be a great source of spiritual strengthand encouragement.

Purpose to continue to live for God

Make a commitment to cherish your connection with God and value it above all else.While it is possible to turn away from God and cause yourself to become seperated from Him again, that does not need to happen. He will help you stay saved if that your deep desire.
