Day 2 - Your Heavenly Father

The most amazing information that anyone has ever shared with me was the fact that God sent His only Son to this world to save me from my sins. The most important decision that I ever made was asking Jesus Christ to be my personal Savior. How wonderful it is to know for sure that I will go to Heaven when I die. You, too, have the ability to decide where you will go when you die. If you have never accepted Christ as your personal Savior, you can follow the steps below. Your decision of where you will spend eternity is the most important decision that you will ever make, and it is the first step in conquering your fatherless journey!

CHALLENGE:

Where you will go when you die is the most important decision you will ever make. That is right; it is your decision. You also get to decide whether or not you want a relationship with your Heavenly Father. You most likely did not decide to be fatherless, but now you have a chance to reconcile that event by seeking your Heavenly Father. The first step on the Fatherless Journey is confirming that you have a relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. God wants you to rest in Him as your Heavenly Father. He will never leave, and He will never forsake you (Hebrews 13:5). All you must do is accept His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, as your personal Saviour. John 3:16 above shows that God loved us so much that He made a way for us to go to Heaven by sending His only begotten Son. The following verses will show you how to accept this free gift that He is offering to you:

1. Romans 3:23 – You must realize that you are a sinner. Have you ever lied, cheated, used a curse word, or disrespected your elder? If so, then you have sinned before, and admitting you are a sinner is the first step.
Every person has sinned.

2. Romans 6:23a – The punishment for your sin is eternal death in Hell.

3. Romans 5:8 – Out of God’s love for us, He sent His Son to die for our sins. This is our hope: through Christ, we can be saved from eternal death.

4. Romans 6:23b – God’s gift is eternal life in Heaven through Jesus Christ.

5. Romans 10:13 – You must accept the gift by faith, believing in Jesus and asking Him to save you from your sins. If you understand this information and want to ask Jesus to be your Savior, please pray the suggested prayer below.

SUGGESTED PRAYER:

Dear Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner. I know that You are God, and I know that You died in my place to pay for my sins. I believe that You rose from the dead, proving that You are God. Right now, in the best way that I know how, I call upon You and ask You to be my Lord, my Savior, and my God. Thank You, Jesus, for dying for me. Help me now to live for You. Amen.
