Scripture: Isaiah 43:19 (NIV) – “See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.”
Change is an inevitable part of life. It can be exhilarating, daunting, or even unsettling at times. Yet, as followers of Christ, we are called to embrace change with faith and trust in God’s plan for our lives.
As we journey through life, we encounter various changes—career transitions, relational shifts, health challenges, or unexpected twists in our plans. During these times, it’s natural to feel anxious or resistant to change. However, God invites us to see change as an opportunity for growth, renewal, and transformation.
Prayer Points:
1- Heavenly Father, guide us as we navigate through seasons of change. Grant us clarity of mind and wisdom to discern Your will amidst uncertainty.
2- Lord, strengthen us during times of transition and change. Give us the courage to embrace the challenges that come with new opportunities and to trust in Your provision and protection
3- Holy Spirit, deepen our faith and trust in Your unfailing promises. Help us to surrender our fears and anxieties about the unknown future into Your loving hands
Confession:
1-Dear God, forgive us for the times when we have resisted change out of fear or stubbornness.
2- We repent of our lack of faith and trust in Your plans for our lives. Help us to release control and to surrender to Your perfect timing and purposes
3- Thank you, Lord, for Your grace and patience with us. Renew our minds and hearts as we embrace change as an opportunity to draw closer to You and to experience Your goodness in new and unexpected ways.
Conclussion:
Let us, therefore, embrace change with open hearts and minds, knowing that God is with us every step of the way. May we lean on His promises, trusting that He is working all things together for our good. As we embrace change, may it be an opportunity to grow closer to God and experience His transforming power in our lives.
Uplifting!!
