A New Beginning in Christ! January 1, 2026

“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!”

2 Corinthians 5:17

Today’s Word

January 1 marks a fresh beginning—not just on the calendar, but in our hearts. 2 Corinthians 5:17 reminds us that in Christ, we are not defined by our past mistakes, failures, or regrets. God offers us newness, renewal, and hope.

This new year is an invitation to walk forward with faith, leaving behind what no longer serves God’s purpose in our lives. We step into the year knowing that God is already ahead of us, ready to guide, strengthen, and renew us day by day.

Prayer

Lord, thank You for the gift of a new year and a fresh beginning. I praise You for making all things new in my life. As I step into this year, help me release the past and walk confidently into what You have prepared for me. Renew my mind, strengthen my spirit, and align my heart with Your will. Guide my steps, guard my thoughts, and fill my days with purpose, peace, and faith. May this year draw me closer to You and reflect Your love in all that I do. I trust You with this new season. Amen.
