Blessings of New Beginnings for 2026.

 As you stand before the blank page of a new year, here are four scriptural blessings in verse for 2026, each flowing from a different promise of God.

I. A Blessing of New Beginnings

Based on Isaiah 43:19

Forget the old wine of the former year,

The vintage of worry,of struggle, of fear.

The Lord says,“Behold, I am doing a new thing!”

A river in wasteland His goodness will bring.

The path through the wilderness now will appear,

Made straight for your traveling,made perfectly clear.

A way where there wasn’t a way to be found,

Where streams of His mercy will bubble from ground.

So step into 2026, soul unconfined,

And perceive the new mercies He’s already designed.

For the God who makes roads in the desert each day

Is carving a blessing-laden path for your way.

II. A Blessing for the Journey

Based on Proverbs 3:5-6 & Psalm 23

When the roadmap before you seems faded and dim,

And you cannot decipher the plan meant for Him,

Trust not in your mapping,but lean on His Name,

And He will cut straight the most tangled of terrain.

He’ll be your good Shepherd through valleys unknown,

Your soul’s restoration,your bread and your stone.

A table of goodness set right in the fray,

Your cup of rejoicing will overflow may.

So wherever you walk, whether meadow or shade,

You’ll walk in assurance that choices He’s made.

For the Lord who directs the vast cosmos above

Will personally order your steps in His love.

III. A Blessing of Provision and Peace

Based on Matthew 6:33 & Philippians 4:19, 7

Do not be anxious with question or care

For the things you need,for the weight you must bear.

But seek first His kingdom,His righteous command,

And all these provisions will come from His hand.

Your God in His glory, in riches most vast,

Will meet every need from His boundless forecast.

And standing on promise,your heart will find rest

In apeace that transcends understanding’s own test.

It will garrison, fortress, your mind and your heart,

A gift He has promised He’ll never depart.

So receive this year’s bounty with thanks and with praise,

For He knows all your needs for each one of your days.

IV. A Blessing of Presence and Promise

Based on Joshua 1:9 & Jeremiah 29:11

“Have I not commanded you?” This is your chord:

“Be strong and courageous,”for I am your Lord.

I will be with you wherever you go,

Through the highs and the lows,so your confidence grows.

For the thoughts that I think toward you are for peace,

To give you a future where blessings increase.

To prosper your soul and to anchor your hope

On a far-reaching,grace-tethered, eternal rope.

So let not your heart be troubled or frail,

For My promise for you will forever avail.

In 2026,from its first break of dawn,

You are carried,you’re kept, and you’re never alone.

Amen.
