Kickstart the New Year with Prayers Filled with Hope and Faith
Download this devotional to inspire your prayers
Maybe the past year was a difficult one for you. Maybe it was good. Or maybe it was more of the same. No matter what the past year brought, we encourage you to kickstart this new year with renewed hope! One way to do that is through prayer.
When we pray, we fix our eyes on God. Prayer helps us center ourselves on God’s promises and his infinite wisdom. Through prayer, God renews our hope and increases our faith.
To inspire your prayers this year, we created The Corrective Lens of Prayer —a devotional that will stretch your faith as you work through the reflection questions and pray for God’s purposes and plans to be fulfilled in your life. May you be reminded that God is the God of all hope and that he wants you to overflow with hope (Romans 15:13).
