6. Have You Accepted God's Salvation, which He Prepared for You?
An uneducated Indian woman was asked about her faith in Christ. She replied, His blood cleansed my heart from all my sins. This illiterate woman had experienced the innermost secret of salvation. Whoever meets Christ and understands his sacrifice, will quickly accept him by faith and surrender his unclean and wicked life to Him. Then the assurance of salvation will come into his heart and the justification of God will seal his mind.
Remember that Christ does not need to die especially for your sins again. He has justified you once and forever. Believe in this fact. Be courageous and thank the almighty for granting you justification freely. He loves you personally, because he sacrificed his beloved son for you and for the whole world. Salvation has been accomplished. Do you really accept it? Then you will gain a new understanding of God as the merciful forgiver and as an ocean of love.
Do you understand how to accept this salvation practically? It is not hard or difficult. Kneel down in a quiet place or a closed room, alone, or with a believing friend and pray from all your heart:
Continue to pray,
Dear Friend: Believe in what you have prayed, because God is listening to you. Be strong in faith, and talk to the merciful God as your heart leads you. Speak and don’t be silent, because God is love. He has completed salvation for you and for the whole world long ago. Keep in mind that this justification, signed by the blood of Jesus Christ, is your highest certificate. The Lamb of God gives you freedom from sin and sanctification in your life. Trust in God’s promises, and you shall hear the voice of the Holy Spirit assuring your faith,
At this moment the peace of God will fill your soul. You will become a new person. It is imperative to accept your salvation with thanksgiving. Don’t postpone it, because Christ has saved you. You are responsible for this privilege in your life. The Holy Spirit warns you:
