Welcoming a New Season with Worship

Change is never easy. As our nightly prayer and devotional remind us, the arrival of a new season sometimes brings joy and excitement—pumpkin patches, crisp air, and cozy nights by the fire. For others, it ushers in loss, nostalgia, or dread. Whether you’re welcoming autumn with open arms or wishing summer could stay forever, Psalm 100:4 reminds us that God is worthy of praise in every season.

Unlike the shifting seasons of life, God remains constant—steadfast, loving, and faithful. Ecclesiastes 3 tells us that there is “a time for everything,” and even when the seasons of our lives change unexpectedly, His purpose never wavers. Our challenge is to worship not just in the comfort of what we know but in the unknown of what’s next.

If this season of life feels uncomfortable or uncertain, lift your eyes to the One who never changes. As you step into what’s new, let worship be your way of saying, “I trust You, Lord.” The seasons may shift, but His presence stays the same.

Tonight’s Scripture: Psalm 100:4 (NIV)

“Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name.”

🙏 Your Nightly Prayer

Dear God,
Embracing seasons of change can be overwhelming and scary. Some of us welcome this newness with excitement, while others cling to what’s familiar. If we’re struggling to welcome this season, help us to look to You in the process. Remind us that Your presence goes before us and that we have nothing to fear. Teach us to praise You in the middle of the transition, to trust that You are working in every detail, and to find peace in knowing You remain the same through every change.
We love, praise, and thank You, Jesus.
Amen.

🧘 Three Things to Meditate Upon

1. Talk to God about Change: Do you struggle with transitions? Journal your honest thoughts to God about this season and what it’s bringing.

2. Worship in the Uncomfortable: When you feel anxious or uncertain, pause and praise. Sing, pray, or simply thank God for His presence right where you are.

3. Count the Blessings of Now: Make a list of the good things this new season brings—crisp air, quiet evenings, laughter with loved ones—and thank God for each one.
