You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.
Ephesians 4:22-24
A new day, month, or year signifies a new beginning. It is the passing of the old self and an awakening of the new you. In the body of Christ, all old things are dead and buried. There is a renewal of the self through a change in your mind. The old you which was prone to deceit, sin, lies, and weakness has now been removed and replaced with a righteous and holy being through the grace and power of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Every new month brings its own troubles and trials as well as victories and joys. Every new month in the Lord is an opportunity for you to grow and be glorious in His grace through your faith in Him. Just as you set new goals for yourself each month, do the same for your growth as a Christian.
Your life in Christ is a journey that must bring you closer to Him each month. If there was a weakness in your character last month that caused you to sin against God or your fellow man, this month should bring cleansing and renewal to your mind.
Because of the Lord’s great love, we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. I say to myself, “The Lord is my portion; therefore I will wait for him.”
Lamentations 4:22-24
God’s love for you never expires. They are new every morning and they go with you everywhere you step. It doesn’t matter what has gone before but what is yet to come. A new month is a new chance and as long as you remain in Christ Jesus, you will always have a chance to grow.
Every month must signify and result in growth for you. When it comes to an end you must have some sort of increase and improvement in your life. Old goals must be surpassed and new targets must be set.
In your walk with Christ, different levels must be reached because you have gotten closer to Him. You must be stronger in faith and abundant with hope in Him. Things that used to trip or trap you shouldn’t be able to do that anymore. You must have a stronger influence in winning souls for Christ and your knowledge must increase in God so no one can deceive you with any godless tales.
To start everything right, it is important to start with God. Life is full of unknowns but when you dedicate your life to God, it gives you the assurance that everything will be alright no matter what.
When you dedicate everything you do to God, it takes out fear because you know that he who goes before you and after you will keep you safe and deliver you from all evil.
So, start this beautiful new month with God. Commit your life and everything you will do in the month to God. Below are prayers to serve as a guide for you when praying for the new month.

A new month is God’s renewal of your membership with Him. It’s His way of telling us that he still loves you and has not deserted you. The same God who has brought you this far is willing to take you to the very end.
This month is your chance to change a lot in your life. Do not carry any baggage from last month into this one. Let all your bygones stay buried and let this mark a brand new you.
But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.
Isaiah 40:31
