WHAT JUST HAPPENED?

I Just Made a Decision

Welcome to God’s Team!

You are taking the first steps toward the adventure of a lifetime: to know Jesus personally and walk with Him daily as He guides your life.

Before you get started, here’s a review of the Gospel message in four simple truths:

God Loves You

God made you and loves you! His love is boundless and unconditional. God is real, and He wants you to personally experience His love and discover His purpose of your life through a relationship with Him.

 

Genesis 1:27, John 3:16

Sin Separates You

Sin damages your relationships with other people and with God. It keeps us from experiencing the fulfilling life that God intends for us. The result: you are eternally separated from God and the life He planned for you. 


 Romans 3:23, Romans 6:23, Isaiah 59:2

Jesus Rescues You

At the cross, Jesus took your place and paid the penalty of death that you deserve for your sins. Jesus died, but He rose to life again. Jesus offers you peace with God and a personal relationship with Him. Through faith in Jesus, you can experience God’s love daily, discover your purpose and have eternal life after death.


1 Peter 3:18, 1 Corinthians 15:3-8, Romans 5:8


Will You Trust Jesus?

God offers you fulfillment and eternal life through a relationship with Jesus Christ. This involves agreeing that you are sinful, accepting God’s forgiveness and turning away from your sins and toward God. 

You choose to trust Jesus when you believe and confess that Jesus is Lord and surrender your life to Him. Are you ready to place your trust in Jesus?


Romans 10:9-10, John 1:12, Rev 3:20, Ephesians 2:8-9

Spiritual Training

As the Holy Spirit leads you, He will begin to transform you into a new person with a new mindset, but change is a two-way street. In training, the coach sets the plan, but the athlete must execute it. If you want to see change in your performance as an athlete, you have to put in the time and work. The same goes for spiritual training. It takes commitment and effort on your part.

Transforms You

As the Holy Spirit leads you, He will begin to transform you into a new person with a new mindset, but change is a two-way street. In training, the coach sets the plan, but the athlete must execute it. If you want to see change in your performance as an athlete, you have to put in the time and work. The same goes for spiritual training. It takes commitment and effort on your part.


Motivates You

Spiritual disciplines are the way we participate in growing in our relationship with God. These disciplines have value for our lives now and the life to come. The Bible lays out the plan for these disciplines, including:

• Studying and memorizing God’s Word

 • Prayer and worship
• Fellowship with other believers

Spiritual training is not always easy, but there’s a reason behind why we do it. Our motivation is to know and love God more.  When we spend time with Jesus, we become more like Christ as a result.


Helps You Know God

At first, spiritual training might feel like drudgery. Then, if you stick with it, a discipline. And ultimately, delight. Eventually, your time with God and other believers is what you should look forward to each day. It gives you strength and motivation to face any situation that comes your way.

Prayer

Communication is necessary to deepen a relationship with someone we love. We make it a priority to talk to our family, friends, teammates, and coaches. If we are to grow in our relationship with Jesus, we must make time to talk to Him as well.

Is A Conversation

Prayer is a conversation between you and God. You can talk to God about anything. It’s not so much about what you say, it’s about sharing your heart with God. You can pray anytime and anywhere!

Always be joyful. Never stop praying. Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus.

–1 THESSALONIANS 5:16-18

Is About Anything & Everything

Prayer is an active conversation of listening and speaking, but what should we pray about?

We are to give God thanks for what He has done in our lives, ask God for what we need, ask forgiveness for the times we’ve sinned, and ask God to help us in our struggles. In other words, we are to pray about anything and everything!

Accomplishes God's Plans

The purpose of prayer is not only to ask for what you want, it is to get what God wants. Jesus represented this purpose in the Lord’s Prayer, where we pray for God’s Kingdom to come and for His will to be done on earth. We are encouraged to pray for God’s plan to succeed in every situation whether it’s in our lives or in the lives of others.
