Prayer: New Year

Lord, I pray to you in humbleness and in truth. I admit that in the midst of doubt, fear and suffering I have doubted your power and your ability to deliver your promises, thus rendering your power and sovereignty insignificant. I who lack trust, faith, and discipleship do not deserve the blessings you have in store for me. How many times have I failed you? How many times have I stood before you and only looked after myself? I, who claim to know the God of the bible, doubt your ways. Lord... in the face of fear and uncertainty, I tremble before life circumstances. I truly open up myself to receive your holy spirit. May I come to believe in your ways and see the world as you see it. I pray that I may fully see the work you have done in my life and be amazed at the power of your love. I pray that my faith in you may be like a mustard seed planted in good soil. Unshaken by the storms of life. I pray that as I walk through life, that I may have greater trust in you and the promises you have for me. Lord... I get on my knees and beg for your mercies for I have sinned and felt short of your grace, given by the son of man. I need you Lord. I offer this 2011 year entirely to you, that my life be fully centered around your love and faithfulness. Because I realize that on my own strength, I am insignificant and a total failure, but with your strength I can move mountains and be a winner in Christ Jesus. May this be the year that your name will be glorified through all my actions and spirit. Yes Lord, all these things in Jesus name I pray, Amen.
