Happy New Year

Lord, 

We thank you for allowing us to enter a new year. We praise you for all that you have done this past year. Thank you for your provision and protection. Thank you for showing yourself to us. We know you have plans for this year, we ask for your strength to be faithful to the calling. We pray that your glory will be shown in this world that needs the light. We ask that we would have a boldness to share about your Son, Jesus Christ. Thank you for salvation! We pray that we would not take this precious gift lightly but cling to it. We ask that you would be our rock in this year which will bring different trials to different families. We ask that you would comfort those who are entering this year with loss, disease, heartache, and hurt. We pray that you would be Jehovah Jirah, the Great provider to our economy. We pray and seek your will and we pray that we will not seek ours. Lord please continue to work on our hearts and please forgive us of our sins. May we throw off every weight that is slowing us down in this race to the finish. Please Jesus come quickly (Maranotha) 

Amen
