Prayer of Salvation
Have you come to that place in your spiritual life where you know for certain that if you were to die today you would go to heaven? Do you know Jesus as your personal Saviour and Lord – are you saved? Is God your father? If your answer is no, then know this: He is knocking at the door of your heart and waiting for you to open so that He can come in and transform your life. Will you invite Him in now?
To do that, please pray the following prayer sincerely from your heart:
‘Heavenly Father, I come to you in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. I am a sinner in need of a saviour. I confess my sins before you this day. Jesus, please forgive me of all my sins, come into my heart, wash me clean with your precious blood and write my name in the Lamb’s book of life. I believe in my heart that you died for my sins and I confess with my mouth that God raised you from the grave. I am saved. I renounce satan and all his works. I surrender my life to you completely. Thank you for saving me. In Jesus name I pray (Amen)’
If you just prayed this prayer, congratulations! You are born-again. You are a new creature, the old has passed away and the new has come. Welcome into the Kingdom of God. You are now a child of God and a citizen of the Kingdom of Heaven. Contact us and we'll send you some materials to help you grow in your relationship with the Lord.
Baptism of the Holy Spirit:
When you prayed the prayer of salvation to receive Jesus into your heart, the Holy Spirit came into your heart and performed the miracle of rebirth in your spirit to make it alive to God! And according to Jesus, the Holy Spirit, the comforter is in our heart to stay! However, Jesus also said to the disciples that they need to have the Holy Spirit come upon them with power so that they can be effective witnesses for Him. Jesus is the baptiser in the Holy Spirit and in fire. God is ready to pour out His Spirit on you as you ask in faith – like salvation, the baptism in the Holy Spirit is a gift from God to be received by anyone who has confessed Jesus as their Lord and personal saviour. You can receive directly by faith or by the laying on of hands of anyone who has been baptised in the Holy Spirit.
To receive the baptism in the Holy, pray as follow:
‘Lord Jesus, I come to you in faith to receive the baptism in the Holy Spirit – I ask you to fill me to overflowing with Your Holy Spirit - the same enduement of power that happened on the day of Pentecost. Cause rivers of living to flow out of me as I give utterance to my spiritual language. I receive now in Your name’
Now begin to speak in praise and adoration as the Spirit gives you words; these words do not come from your head (you do not understand them) but from your heart, your spirit - you voice them out with your mouth!

Like the song says: '..Light of the world, You stepped down into darkness, opened my eyes and let me see..'
Thanks for visiting with us today. Think about this - Jesus said '..I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life..'(John 8:12). Not only that, he also said '..you are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden..' (Matt 5:14).
As you visit with us today, may you embrace the Jesus, the Light of the world and be transformed to the light of the world; if you have already done that, then '...let your light shine before men, that they see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven...'(Matt 5;16).
Jesus said for His followers to go into 'all the world' and disciple nations. In obedience to the Master's command, we a 'going' ministry/church. We go wherever people are who need to know and experience the love of God through Christ Jesus (see our outreaches page for more information on our 'going' efforts). We currently support an Orphans Project in Blantyre (Treasure Child Project) and this Autumn, we are planning a Mission Trip to the beautiful country of Malawi.
While in Malawi, we will be visiting/ministering in Lilongwe, Blantyre and possibly, Kasungu. We will be taking some clothes with us and most importantly the love of God and the gospel - which is the power of God to transform lives.
You can be part of this in different ways: 1) Come along with us - if you have a passion for God and a passion for souls, join us in this life-changing experience! 2) Sponsor a short-term Missionary - You can sponsor a missionary - the cost to each missionary is about £1000 - any amount will be much appreciated. 3) Donate funds/clothes - You can donate money (preferred) or clothes (especially childrens' clothes). We will endeavour to take as much as we can with us - please ensure that the clothes are still in good state and clean! Please request more information through our 'contact' page.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SEVEN Tips to help you grow in your relationship with Jesus. 1. Read your bible – this is how God will normally speak to you. Start from the gospel of John. 2. Pray – talk to God about everything 3. Go to church – you must begin to learn who God is and what He expects from you. This will happen at a good Bible believing church 4. Fellowship – you will begin to want to develop new friends that love God like you. 5. Baptism in the Holy Spirit – pray to receive the baptism in the Holy Spirit with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues – a special gift that God has prepared for you to empower you to live the Christian life and to be an effective witness for the Lord Jesus Christ. 6. Water Baptism – Jesus commanded us to be baptized in water to symbolize the washing of our sins and death to our old life and to rise again to our new life in Him. 7. Tell others – everybody you know has broken the commandments of God and needs Jesus to forgive them to receive eternal life. Please write, email or call us to let us know so that we can send you some materials (free and postage paid) to help you understand a little more about this new life in the Kingdom of God. |
