Praying Scriptures for and in the New Year

Prayer: Lord, I’m praying for _________ and asking You to fill him/her with the knowledge of Your will through all spiritual wisdom and understanding. And I pray this in order that _______ may live a life worthy of You, Lord, and may please You in every way, bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of You, God, being strengthened with all power according to Your glorious might so that he/she may have a great endurance and patience, joyfully giving thanks to You, Father, Who has qualified him/her to share in the inheritance of the saints in the kingdom of light.

Praise to You, Lord, for You have rescued from the dominion of darkness those who believe and brought us into the kingdom of the Son, Whom You love, and in Whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins. Amen (Colossians 1:9-14).

Prayer: Lord, I give You thanks for ________, and remember him/her in our prayers. I am asking You, the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, to give him/her the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that he/she may know You better. I pray also that the eyes of his/her heart may be enlightened in order that he/she may know the hope to which You have called him/her, as well as the riches of Your glorious inheritance in the saints, and Your incomparable great power in us who believe.

Praise to You, Lord, for that power which is like the working of Your mighty strength, which You exerted in Christ when You raised Him from the dead and seated Him at Your right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. And You, God, placed all things under His feet and appointed Him to be head over everything for the church, which is His body, the fullness of Him Who fills everything in every way (Ephesians 1:17-23).

Prayer: And this is my prayer: that ________‘s love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that he/she may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ—to the glory and praise of God (Philippians 1:9-11).

Betty Howard

A school teacher, who in 1980 had the Lord open her understanding to Humanism and the need to expose it. She has done so by hosting a radio talk show for 10+ years starting in the early 1980's and interviewing local and national leaders who helped expose the Humanistic worldview and teach the Biblical worldview. During that time she was president of Greater Orlando Pro Family Forum. She also wrote and taught inductive Bible studies, in which she included worldviews. In the early 1990s, her ministry turned to working with the newly formed FL Family Rights Committee. Their objective was to expose the state sponsored kidnapping of children under the guise of child abuse. They were so successful, the chairman was elected to the state senate. She has made several missionary trips (mostly in the 1990s) to Guatemala with her surgeon husband. who repaired cleft lips and palates there. In 2001, she wrote and self published the book, God's Gift of Love , in which Elizabeth, mother of John the Baptist, and Mary, mother of Jesus, tell their stories, (available on Amazon). Because Betty saw what a special lady Elizabeth was and what little attention she gets, Betty has now become Elizabeth's, "self appointed press agent", dresses in a Biblical costume and gives a monologue by quoting Luke One as if she were Elizabeth. Knowing the Lord has called her to a "watchman" ministry, she tries to keep informed from conservative media, such as Sons of Liberty, and then educates others by writing and distributing short articles which includes what the Bible says about those issues.
