please someone pray for me i feel like i cant be saved ive prayed the sinners prayer many times and truly meant it and i truly belive in jesus please pray for me and give me some advice.
Dear friend,

If you've asked Jesus into your life, and believe that he was resurrected; if you believe He is the Son of God, you are saved. You most likely won't have any feelings at all. Some people believe that, but no - the Spirit indwells you at the second you believe and your inheritance is guaranteed, your redemption. Satan tries to steal your joy of this, and you need to continue to trust God.

Start reading the bible so that you can know about God and what He desires. Start with the book of John. Confess your sins to God, tell Him everything, it's okay. We're all sinners and nothing you have done is unforgivable. Repent of your sin, try not to do it again, with God's help, but we still mess up; in case you do, we still have Christ whose blood was shed for us for the sin. When you are ready get baptised. Find a good church that teaches the word of God, the bible, where Christ is central to all teachings. Tell others about your faith and seek out friends who are likeminded so they can help you grow.

I wrote this a little out of order but, once you believed in Christ you were saved. Welcome brother:clap:

Dear Lord, I pray for this man that he would grow in you and become mature in you. I pray he would not doubt his salvation, but only learn more and more about you. I pray for fellowship for him,and others that can disciple him also. I pray for him to read the word, and to pray. I pray that he can have joy. In Jesus name I pray. Amen

i agree with tapero, and woud like to add that this is a faith walk. we can't alway expect to "feel" a certain way. we must accept christ by faith. faith comes by hearing the word of God. so spend time reading the word. write encouraging scriptures down and keep them in your pockit so you can read them when you feel doubtful. pray and ask God to lead you to the church where He would have you to worship and be equipped to do your part in the body. go to the mature christians in that body and allow them to build you up.

Prayformeplease, we need you. God Bless You

Jeremiah 17:9 says that "The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?" Don't base your salvation on what you feel - or in this case aren't feeling. Just because you may have seen someone cry at an altar when they accepted Christ doesn't mean that you had to.

If you prayed for Jesus to come into your life from the heart, believing that you would receive, it's been done. You've been redeemed! Rejoice! Give no ear to the devil's doubts. Regardless what you 'felt' at that time, the angel's in Heaven were rejoicing for you.

Satan is the author of confusion, the prince of lies. Resist the devil, and he will flee. You've been redeemed, rest assured of this fact. The media, and granted a lot of Christians today have made it seem that when you accept Christ you're going to experience Heaven on earth for a moment. That's not [always] the case, my friend. The reason I was so moved is because I realized just how lost I was without Him - and I was crying in my seat before I even got up to walk to the altar.

Remember the verse above. What God has promised, you can count on above all things - rely on His Word, not your feeling. May God Bless you abundantly!
