Hello I'm new

[kimbarcelo25]

Hello guys, how do I know if I already accepted Jesus Christ as my savior? And how to do a daily devotion?
Sometimes I feel shy when I pray to God and I can't say anything to him... I feel bad now :-(

Hello and welcome.

God reads your heart -- even if you don't say anything, He knows

Have you prayed a sinner's prayer? Something such as this?

Father, I know that I have broken your laws and my sins have separated me from you. I am truly sorry, and now I want to turn away from my past sinful life toward you. Please forgive me, and help me avoid sinning again. I believe that your son, Jesus Christ died for my sins, was resurrected from the dead, is alive, and hears my prayer. I invite Jesus to become the Lord of my life, to rule and reign in my heart from this day forward. Please send your Holy Spirit to help me obey You, and to do Your will for the rest of my life. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.

Hey kim! Welcome to the forums

As for your question about Jesus, repent your sins, and ask God to let Jesus in your life. Let him in, don't be shy.
As for praying, I just talk to him as I would a human. God knows us and what we need before we even pray. Praying to God is talking to him, ask for forgiveness and help to fight temptation.

I usually pray this, and then talk to him, and tell him how my life is going, also who else I'm praying for.

Father who is in heaven, hallowed be thy name.

May your kingdom come soon, and your will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven.

I ask that you give us what we need today

And forgive me for my sins, as I have forgiven those who have sinned against me.

And to help me fight the temptations I face, and deliver me from the evil one.

And then I just talk to him, I found that prayer on the internet, I think its a good basis of what you should ask God for, though I had a similar prayer when I was younger. But david4223 has a good one too.
Ultimately I don't think it really matters as to what we say in our prayers, because God knows our heart.
Gods just happy to hear from you

Welcome to Christian Forums. Live by Christ's words, and you have accepted living in Christ. I'd say examine the Beatitudes and Matthew chapters 5-7 as to how.
Daily devotions differ. In the Catholic Church, we have the Rosary, which is a walk through the Gospels to meditate on the events of Jesus' life, and his mother's. There's a "Chaplet of Divine Mercy" in which we pray for all souls. There are other saints who are for our special needs.
You don't have to say anything to God. Just open your heart to Him. He knows already what you need, what your concerns are. I guess the best prayer is "Thy will be done."
