I have accepted Jesus Christ… What’s next?

Congratulations on accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and personal saviour and becoming also becoming one of His disciples.  This is the most important thing you will ever do in your life.

Jesus called you, you heard Him and reacted.  You came and now your have accepted Him as your saviour.  What could be more beautiful than this?

When you give your life to Jesus your life changes Col 1v14 says in whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins.

You are forgiven by God for all the sins you’ve ever committedRomans 8v1 there is therefore no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus…

According to John 1:12 yet to all who did receive Him, to those who believed in His name He gave the right to become children of God. You become a part of God’s family, but you begin a new life.

2nd Corinthians 5v17 Therefore if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come. The old has gone, the new is here.

Your future is transformed. You receive eternal life John 5v24…whoever hears my word and believes Him who sent e has eternal live. You get to spend eternity in heaven with your heavenly Father and your new family of believers.

 

Join a bible believing church

We need the fellowship and prayers of other believers. Hebrews 10v25 not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day approaching.

Seek to learn and be trained in the Christian life

Matthew 28v20 teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you, even unto the end of the world.

Daily pray and get acquainted with God by talking with Him

You will find this to be a source of great power, strength and blessing as you continue in you walk with Jesus.

Luke 18.1 then Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up.

When Jesus, our example was here on earth he often spent the night in prayer.  Matthew 14v23 after he had dismissed them, he went up on a mountainside by himself to pray.

Read your bible daily to build your faith

As praying is talking to God, reading the bible is letting God talk to you. The more you read the bible to more clearly you will be drawn to be like him

Romans 10v17…faith comes from hearing the message and the message is heard through the word about Christ.
