“Whoever Calls on the Name of the LORD Shall Be Saved”
“For ‘whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved.’” — Romans 10:13 (NKJV)
A Promise You Can Trust
In a world full of uncertainties, few promises are as simple, strong, and unshakeable as this:Whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved.
There are no complicated conditions, no special status required — no matter who you are or where you come from. God’s invitation is open to anyone willing to cry out to Him in faith.
It’s For You — Right Where You Are
Long before the Apostle Paul wrote it, the prophet Joel declared:
“And it shall come to pass that whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved.” (Joel 2:32)
From the Old Testament to the New, God’s heart has not changed. He desires that none should perish but that all should come to repentance (2 Peter 3:9).You may feel unworthy, guilty, or too far gone — but the word “whoever” means no one is excluded.
What Does It Mean to Call on the LORD?
To “call” is to humbly admit you cannot save yourself — and to trust Jesus Christ alone.Romans 10:9 says:
“If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.”
It’s a sincere prayer from the heart:“Lord Jesus, save me. Be my Saviour, my Lord, my life.”When you do, He promises to forgive you, make you new, and give you eternal life.
And if you already know Him, remember this promise still stands. Call on Him in every trouble, and He will deliver you and give you peace (Psalm 50:15).
No One Is Beyond His Reach
There is no sin too deep, no past too broken, no heart too hard for Him to redeem. Certainly, no battle He cannot win for you; remember, He is the LORD of Hosts. No trouble He cannot delivers from – He is the LORD that sits upon the flood (Psalm 29: 10). Wherever you are right now, whatever you face, you can call on Him — and His Word assures you He will hear you. The LORD will give strength to His people; the LORD will bless His people with peace.
Whoever includes you.
✨ Reflection Question
Have you truly called on the name of the LORD and trusted Him as your Saviour?
Are there troubles overwhelming your soul today? Remember, you can call on Him and He will deliver you.
✨ A Simple Prayer to Call on the LORD
“Lord Jesus, I believe You died for me and rose again. I confess my sins and turn to You now. Please forgive me, save me, and make me Yours. I trust You as my Saviour and call on Your name today. Deliver me from all my troubles and fill me with Your peace. Thank You for Your promise that whoever calls on You shall be saved. Amen.”
