Pure

I found a teen devotional that I found was really helpful about a year ago. It's titled "Pure" and it's by Rebecca St. James. Sometimes I have a hard time deciding what is pure or acceptable, and this book teaches about purity of the heart, body, and spirit. I would highly encourage this book to any teen girl to read. Rebecca is a godly woman who has insight on what is proper to dress and what is not, but she is also very stylish, without having to be immodest. Please feel free to comment.

A - Admit that you have sinned the bible shows us clearly:

B. Believe God sent his only son, Jesus to die on the cross for you . ( Luke 23 and 24 )

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

Acts 4:12 - Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved.

C- Commit Give your Live to Jesus. Ask Him to be your Savior and Lord.

Romans 10:13 - Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord Will be saved.

Romans 10:9 If you confess with your mouth, Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead you will be saved.

Prayer-

"Dear God, I admit that I have sinned and that my sin keeps me away from You. I am sorry for my sin. I believe Jesus died on the cross for me so my sin can be forgiven. I also believe Jesus rose from the dead and is alive.

God, please forgive me. I give my life to Jesus as my Savior and Lord. I will obey You and live for You the rest of my life. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen."
