Heavenly Father,

Today I come to You to be born again. Your Word says except a man be born again, he cannot see Your kingdom. Make me a new creature in Christ — let old things pass away and all things become new.

I confess with my mouth the Lord Jesus, and I believe in my heart that You raised Him from the dead. By grace I am saved through faith, and that not of myself, it is Your gift.

I repent and I am converted, that my sins may be blotted out. I confess my sins before You, knowing You are faithful and just to forgive me and cleanse me from all unrighteousness.

Because I love You, I will keep Your commandments. Show me how to deny myself, take up my cross daily, and follow You. Let my faith not be dead, but alive with works that honor You.

Make me holy, for You are holy. I will not be conformed to this world, but transformed by the renewing of my mind. I come out from among them and I am separate unto You.

Fill me with Your Spirit, that the world will know I am Your disciple by my love. Let Your fruit be evident in me — love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance. Herein let Your Father be glorified, that I bear much fruit.

Give me strength to endure hardness as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. I choose this day to be faithful unto death, trusting You will give me the crown of life. For he that endureth to the end shall be saved.

I pray this in the name of Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior.

Amen.
