PRAYER TO ACCEPT JESUS CHRIST AS MY LORD AND SAVIOUR
God, I come to You in the name of Your Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. I confess with my mouth that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and the Lord of my life. I invite You, Jesus, to have first place in my heart and my life. I believe God raised Jesus from the dead, and that He is alive in my heart today. I forsake my evil ways and thoughts which I have harboured and this day turn my life over to Jesus. I ask Jesus that You will fill my heart and my mind with Your ways and Your thoughts and that You begin a transforming work from within my heart and my spirit.
Thankyou Lord Jesus. I yield myself right now to the moving of the Holy Spirit within my spirit. Holy Spirit may you seal this prayer this day.

Precious Blood of Jesus that was shed to reveal Your Mercy to all humankind, as we approach very near we pray:
Flow over us in abundance - over our head, our hands, our will, our mind, our memory, our thoughts, our desires and tendencies, our actions, our interior and our outward sensibilities. Wash away whatever in us is soiled, blot out every uncleanness, heal whatever in us is sick, convert us and transform us by Your adorable power so that we can abide in You.
O unlimited purity, make us pure: adorn us, nourish us, bless us and save us. Amen.
