Beloved New Nazareth Family,
As we stand at the doorway of a new year, we pause to seek the face of our faithful God.
Eternal and wise God,
We thank You for bringing us through seasons seen and unseen, battles won and burdens survived. You kept us when we didn’t have the strength to keep ourselves. You covered us when we didn’t know how close the danger was. For that, we say thank You.
As this new year opens before us, we don’t step forward in fear, but in faith. Order our steps. Guard our hearts. Align our plans with Your purpose. Where we were tired, renew us. Where we were wounded, heal us. Where we were distracted, refocus us. And where we were unsure, remind us that You are still God.
Bless every family connected to this church. Cover our children, strengthen our elders, and guide our leaders. Let peace rest in our homes, provision flow in our lives, and unity reign among us. May this be a year of spiritual growth, divine direction, and undeniable favor.
God, we place this year in Your hands, trusting that what You have already ordained cannot be undone. We declare that You have gone before us, made the crooked places straight, and set before us open doors no one can shut.
We enter this year with grateful hearts, lifted hands, and confident praise—knowing that the same God who brought us here will carry us through.
In the mighty and matchless name of Jesus we pray,
Amen.
Happy New Year, New Nazareth! 🙏
Pastor Hanson
