Dear Lord, Thank You for being the God who does new things. You are the only one who truly is creative. All things that we have come from You. Thank you for the minds, hearts, and bodies to accomplish goals set before us this year. We want to humbly admit first that we can chase the achievement before chasing after You. Help our hearts to align with Your will this year and give us boldness to walk with You into the unknowns of 2025. Please help us seek your kingdom first, above all things. Do a new thing in our relationship with you. Grow us in sharing our faith with others, deepen our desire and understanding of Scripture, cultivate Christian community among our local churches, and allow whatever you have gifted us in to be used as a platform to glorify Your name alone. We pray that we would surrender to Your timeline and release our own as we pursue and take steps towards our dreams and goals this year. Would you help us to be efficient, focused, and disciplined in the areas where we need to be for success? Help us to be humble, kind, and gracious in our relationships with those around us. We pray for new relationships out of those that have been broken. Bring healing among family members, friends, co-workers, and church communities. Do new things in relationships that are thriving. Help us to grow deeper together in You and love well. We pray for you to lead us to new people who do not know you so that we can share Your gospel with them and they would receive the gift of eternal life. We pray boldly for incredible transformations among our local church to see You work and move in fresh ways this year like never before. Help us to be strengthened and empowered by Your Word and Your Spirit. We pray over professional and career goals, health goals, hobbies, and anything specific that we are eager for a change in this year. Do such a new thing that it blows our minds at how You have worked everything together. We pray for new dreams and goals that You would entrust to us specifically that align with Your heart and Your will for our lives. To Your name be the glory in 2025, Amen.
