7 Prayers to Start the New YearSample
Romans 8:18 says, "Yet what we suffer now is nothing compared to the glory he will reveal to us later."
Dear God, as we go through life this upcoming year, we may face challenges that we have never faced before. We may be scared, anxious, or depressed, but we know that you are the God of joy. We pray that when those struggles come, you are the first resource we turn to. We pray we long to be in your presence and spend time with you to heal and strengthen us. We praise you in the midst of suffering because we know that the glory and joy we will experience with you one day is promised. You are a God of promise, a God who keeps his covenant with his people. We repent for the times we have looked toward worldly solutions for our spiritual problems because we know you are the ultimate answer. We look forward to the day we can be in your presence, amen.
Sometimes, when we have a bad day, it can be easy to cling to earthly vices instead of God. Next time you feel tempted to numb the pain or anger, go to God in prayer. He loves you and has the power to strengthen you.

Many great things can happen this year, but if we do not use this time to grow closer to God, our practices won’t align with what he has designed.
