“A New Beginning”
Sunday, August 17, 2025Key Verse
“Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.” Isaiah 43:19
Text —Isaiah 43:18-21
Message
Life is full of beginnings. We start each day with a new dawn of expectation. We also start each year with a resolution and an expectation of things to come. We find new friends where we live or in the school we attend, it is a new beginning. These changes and beginnings are all from God. He gives us the sunshine we enjoy each day. He is timeless, but He gives us the gift of hope for better days and a peace that passes all understanding.
A new beginning is about changing our story by resetting both our course and our focus on living the life that we were created to live. A new day is like a new baby, many changes will be necessary, some of which will be challenging, some rewarding and some may not. But God has reasons for each of us to have beginnings during our lives.
Our key verse reveals the assurance from God on doing a new thing in our lives. Therefore, as you begin the day, know that every day is a new beginning and every year has new beginnings. New things will begin in your life from this day on.
