From Murfreesboro Rescue Mission
Know Jesus as Your Lord and Savior
You are deeply loved by God. A relationship with Jesus is not something you earn by becoming perfect or fixing everything in your life first. Jesus invites you to come honestly, turn toward Him, and receive the forgiveness, grace, and new life that only He can give.
Know that God loves you.
God gave His Son so that everyone who believes in Him can receive everlasting life. John 3:16 KJV
Recognize your need for Him.
Every person has sinned and needs God's forgiveness. Romans 3:23 KJV
Believe the good news about Jesus.
Jesus Christ died for our sins, was buried, and rose again. 1 Corinthians 15:3–4 KJV
Respond to Jesus in faith.
Believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from the dead and confess Him as Lord. Romans 10:9–10 KJV
Begin walking with Him.
Talk honestly with God through prayer, read the Bible, and connect with a Bible-believing local church where you can learn and grow.
You do not need polished words to come to Jesus. Speak to Him honestly. He already sees your heart, knows your story, and understands the weight you have carried. His grace is greater than your past, and no one who sincerely comes to Him will be turned away.
A simple prayer
"Lord Jesus, I know that I have sinned and need Your forgiveness. I believe that You died for my sins and rose again. I turn to You and place my trust in You. Please forgive me, make me new, and teach me to follow You. Be Lord of my life. Amen."
A prayer does not save us by the words alone. Salvation is God's gift, received through genuine faith in Jesus Christ. See Ephesians 2:8–9.
