Testimony
At the beginning of one new month, a woman named Grace felt completely overwhelmed. The previous month had ended with unanswered prayers, financial pressure, and emotional exhaustion. She almost entered the new month with fear and low expectations, telling herself, “Maybe this month will be the same.”
On the very first day, Grace decided to do something different. Instead of complaining, she prayed a simple but intentional New Month Prayer. She committed her plans, worries, family, and future into God’s hands, declaring scriptures like Isaiah 43:19 and Proverbs 16:3 over her life.
Nothing changed instantly, but something shifted inside her. She began the month with peace instead of panic. Weeks later, unexpected help came, delayed opportunities opened, and problems that once felt heavy became manageable. Grace realized that the power was not just in the new month but in starting it with God.
This is why New Month Prayers matter. They align your heart with God’s will, invite His presence into your days, and turn ordinary months into seasons of testimonies.
