‘The gift of God is eternal life.’ Romans 6:23 NKJV

Does your life feel empty? Do you long for peace, the knowledge that your sins are forgiven and the assurance of a home in Heaven? Today, place your trust in Christ and make Him Lord of your life. ‘How?’ you ask. Take the Roman road to salvation. (Found in the Book of Romans.)

Step 1: ‘for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.’ (Romans 3:23 NIV) Face it, we’re all sinners to the core, incapable of living the glorious lives God wills for us and desperately in need of a Saviour. Step 2: ‘For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.’ (Romans 6:23 NIV) The Gospel means ‘good news’ and here’s the good news: your sins (all of them) have been paid for at the cross. Step 3: ‘But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.’ (Romans 5:8 NIV) You can’t earn salvation by good works or deserve it by having good character. God offers it to you freely. All you have to do is receive it by faith. Step 4: ‘That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.’ ‘Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.’ (Romans 10:9;13 NIV)

Now pray these words: ‘Lord, I surrender my life to You. Come into my heart. By faith I receive the gift of eternal life. Thank You for setting everything right between You and me, in Jesus’ name. Amen.’
