Prayer for new beginnings: letting God lead you forward

A new chapter deserves a new prayer. A prayer for new beginnings consecrates what you are starting — a new year, a new job, a new relationship, a new city, a new season of life — to God.

New beginnings in Scripture

Scripture is a book of new beginnings. The Exodus. The return from Babylon. The Resurrection. 'Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it?' God is consistently the God who makes things new.

Lamentations 3:23: 'Great is Your faithfulness. His mercies are new every morning.' Every morning is a new beginning. Every season of change is an invitation to begin again with God.

When to pray for new beginnings
