As followers of Messiah Jesus, we have the New Covenant to help us walk closer with God in 2026. If we remember these four benefits from Jeremiah 31 to keep us walk with Him as we begin the New Year, we can draw nearer to God this year.
Thanks for being a Kitchen Table Partner. I hope you’re encouraged to walk close with God today and for the rest of the year.
