Everyone is very glad to hear of your decision to Follow and Serve the Lord.  But a decision on your part to believe in Jesus Christ as your Personal Savior is how every lost sinner is saved and given assurance.

Works after Salvation
Once a person is saved then he or she should take dead-aim to following and serving.

Romans 12:1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
Romans 12:2  And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Belief for Salvation
Following and Serving is not for Salvation, but for rewards after Salvation.  Notice the passage above is addressed to "Brethren".  Those who are already brothers in Christ are to fill their lives with good works.  The first step of the unsaved person is belief in Jesus Christ as their Personal Saviour from personal sin.
