Three Prayers for the New Year

As we close out the year, a lot of people are preparing resolutions for the new year, coming up with things they’d like to do more or less often over the next 12 months. The sad reality, however, is that most people give up on their resolutions by the end of January. Could it be that these changes — many of which are positive or admirable — don’t stick because we’ve failed to include God in the decision-making process? This week, Jordan Weathers uses Psalm 139 to remind us about God’s intimate knowledge of us and His involvement in every area of our lives. With this in mind, we will discuss three prayers for the new year that revolve around who we are, where we go and what we do. By earnestly asking God these three questions, we can ensure that our hopes, dreams, plans and pursuits are closely aligned with His will and Word.
