A Prayer For The New Year
By Synthia Esther
With each new year comes the opportunity to achieve more for the cause of Jesus Christ our Lord, than the year before. Devotion to the will and word of God brings forth a sincerity of purpose and plan. May the following "New Years Prayer" inspire your heart to yield an abundance of spiritual fruit for the Kingdom of God the whole year through.
A PRAY OF CONSECRATION
Give us the will, O God, to pray in accordance with your will continually.
To learn to know you rightfully, through your word, the Holy Bible.
To serve you always, as Lord of Life, Father of body, soul, and spirit.
To ask all things in your name needfully, not selfishly.
To praise you always for you alone are worthy to be praised.
To love you steadfastly, for you are love.
To ask to show mercy heartily, as you show mercy.
To trust you always for you are faithful.
To willingly obey you always for your instruction is solid, firm, and true.
To abide in your presence, patiently, secure even in the midst of your silence.
To give to those in need, as you would give.
To live a life of virtue, by your righteous example.
To thank you gratefully, no matter the circumstance.
To forgive freely, as you have forgiven me.
To hope for Heaven's eternal home, showing faith, hope, charity, and love, to others, until I get there.
