Prayer for New Birth
Dear Heavenly Father,
I come to you today with a heart full of hope and expectation. I am seeking a new birth, a spiritual rebirth that will transform my life and bring me closer to you.
As I reflect on my life, I realize that I have been living according to my own desires and plans, rather than following your will. I have been stuck in a cycle of sin and selfishness, and I know that I need a fresh start.
Lord, I ask that you would give me a new heart, one that is pure and full of love for you. I ask that you would renew my mind and spirit, and that you would give me a sense of purpose and direction.
I confess that I have been living in darkness, and I need your light to guide me. I ask that you would shine your light into my life, and that you would lead me out of the darkness and into your marvelous light.
Lord, I also ask that you would give me the gift of faith, that I might trust in you and your promises. I ask that you would give me the courage to follow you, even when the path ahead is uncertain.
As I seek this new birth, I pray that you would use me to bring glory to your name. I pray that you would use me to bless others, and that you would use me to spread your love and message to a world that desperately needs it.
Thank you, Lord, for hearing my prayer and for answering my cry for a new birth. I trust in your goodness and your love, and I know that you will bring about a transformation in my life that will amaze and astound me.
In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
