Holy scripture of the day about a new name from God

Belief Statement: God gives me a new name and new identity in Jesus. No longer do past failures or mistakes define who I am.

Quote: It is never too late to be what you might have been. --George Eliot

Prayer to embrace my new name and live in my new identity

Thank You Father God for giving me a new name and a new life with eternal purpose through Jesus Christ. My old life and past mistakes no longer define me. I feel loved, accepted, and  valued as one of Your children. Holy Spirit, I ask You to transform me into the image of Christ so I grow in being a fruitful Christian in the marketplace who is loving, patient, gentle, meek, and kind. Guide someone across my path today who is longing for a life with meaning. Use me to help lead them to faith in Jesus so they can be born again. In His holy name I pray.
