A Prayer for a New Year

2023 - Person praying

Whatever last year looked like, this year is an opportunity for a fresh start.

As a global Community, we have an opportunity to pray over our lives—and the lives of millions across the world.

Imagine what God could do if you joined in prayer with our Community—all praying the same prayer to the same faithful God.

God,

You are the light of the world.

Because of You, I no longer walk in darkness but in Your light. May my life reflect Your truth, pointing others to You and bringing glory to Your name.

Give me the strength and courage to share the hope that I have in You.

This world is broken, but You make what’s broken whole again.

This year, draw near to the lost, the lonely, and the hurting. And, please draw near to me.

May Your love bring us together, mending division and unifying Your global Church.

No matter what this year holds, You are faithful and Your promises are true.

Thank You for the eternal hope that I have in You.

In Jesus’ name,

Amen.

Start your year refreshed in God’s Presence.

Person

Setting goals can feel like an overwhelming to-do list.

But your relationship with God isn’t just another box to check off. It’s a place to renew your mind, refresh your soul, and rediscover God’s purpose for you.

Here are some ways you can connect with God every day.

MAKE GOD’S WORD A LIFESTYLE

Matt discovered a way to renew his mind with God’s truth by doing something he already enjoys.

“I listen to podcasts all the time, so listening to Bible Plans helps me swap this habit with truth and soaking in God’s Word.”

Matt, USA

When you spend time with God, your life will start to reflect His love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, and self-control.

What are some ways you can turn something you love into a new way to connect with God?

START A PLAN

Plans are a great way to make the Bible a part of your everyday life.

This year, journey through the Bible and experience the big picture of God’s redemption, faithfulness, and unconditional love for us.

Don’t miss what God does next…

Two people on phones

Do you remember the first time you realized that God loved you? That He wanted a relationship with you?

In Diya’s story, we saw God meet her in her despair and provide hope and healing through YouVersion.

Maybe you can recall a time when God met one of your deepest needs as well.

YouVersion is currently reaching hundreds of millions of people in every country around the world, and connecting them with the hope of Scripture—but there are still people who haven’t experienced the life-changing impact of God’s Word.

It doesn’t have to stay this way.
