To READ and CHANGE: # STEPS to PEACE with GOD



Hello Beloved people!

Do you know God's purpose? we invite you to follow the Steps to find this amazing grace!


Check below!⇩😊


Step 1 God’s Purpose: peace and life
God loves you and wants you to experience peace and life – abundant and eternal.


The Bible says…

“we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ”. Romans 5:1
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, to whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life”. John 3:16
“I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly”. John 10:10


Why don’t most people have this peace
and abundant life that God planned for us to have?


Step 2The problem: Our separation

God created us in His own image to have abundant life. He did not make us as robots to automatically love and obey Him. God gave us a will and freedom of choice.
We chose to disobey God and go to our own willful way. We still make this choice today. This results in separation from God.


The Bible says…
“For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God”. Romans 3:23
“For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord”. Romans 6:23




Our attempts to reach God
People have tried in many ways to bridge this gap between themselves and God….


The Bible says…

“There is a way that seems right to a man, but in the end it leads to death.” Proverbs 14:12
“But your iniquities have separated you from your God; your sins have hidden his face from you, so that he will not hear”. Isaiah 59:2



Step 3 God’s Bridge: the cross

Jesus Christ died on the cross and rose from the grave. He paid the penalty for our sin and bridged the gap between God and people.


The Bible says…

“For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Jesus Christ”. 1 Timothy 2:5
“For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God”. 1 Peter 3:18

“But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us”. Romans 5:8



Step 4Our response: receive Christ
We must trust Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and receive Him by personal invitation.

The Bible says…

“Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come and eat with him, and he with me” Revelation 3:20
“Yet to all who received him, to those who believes in his name, he gave the right to become children of God”. John 1:12
“That if you confess with your mouth, ‘Jesus is the Lord’, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the death, you will be saved”. Romans 10:9


Will you receive Jesus Christ right now?

Here is how you can receive Christ:
1.       Admit your need. (I am a sinner).
2.       Be willing to turn from your sins (repent).
3.       Believe that Jesus Christ died for you on the Cross and rose from the grave.
4.       Through prayer, invite Jesus Christ to come in and control your life through the Holy Spirit (Receive Him as Lord and Savior).



How to pray:


Dear Lord Jesus,
I know that I am a sinner and need Your forgiveness. I believe that You died for my sins. I want to turn from my sins. I now invite You to come into my heart and life. I want to trust and follow You as Lord and savior. In Jesus’ name. Amen.



GOD’S ASSURANCE: HIS WORD

If you prayed this prayer, the Bible says…

“Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved”. Romans 10:13

Did you sincerely ask Jesus Christ to come into your life? Where is He right now? What has He given you?


“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God – not by works, so that no one can boast”. Ephesians 2:8-9


The Bible says…

“He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life”. 1 John 5:12-13

Receiving Christ, we are born into God’s family through the supernatural work of the Holy Spirit who indwells every believer. This is called regeneration, or the “new birth”.


This is just the beginning of a wonderful new life in Christ. To deepen this relationship you should:

1. Read the Bible every day to know Christ better.
2. Talk to God in prayer every day.
3. Tell others about Christ.
4. Worship, fellowship, and serve with other Christians in a church where Christ is preached.
5. As Christ’s  representative in a needy world, demonstrate your new life by your love and concern for others.
