How to have a personal relationship with God
This is what the Bible says:
We all have a PROBLEM, and it is sin. Sin has broken the relationship between God and man. None of us deserve God’s mercy, grace, or a relationship with Him. We are sinners by nature and sinners by choice. We must recognize and admit this problem. (Romans 3:23; Romans 5:12)
God had a PLAN. He knew we could not earn a place in heaven or a relationship with him, so He sent……His perfect son. (John 3:16-18).
Jesus is the PROVISION. He came as the sacrifice to pay the penalty for our sin.
(Romans 6:23; II Corinthians 5:21)
We must PLEAD for His mercy and grace. With a repentant heart, trust only in the mercy of Jesus and what He did for us on the cross. When a sinner repents and believes God, in grace and mercy, forgives and redeems, thus making that individual a child of God. (Acts 16:30-31; Romans 10:9-13)
PRAY now confessing your sin and inability to save yourself and trust Christ, and Christ alone for your salvation. He promises salvation to all who turn to Him. (Roman 4:3; 10:9-13; 1 John 1:9)
