We join you in lifting up your travel plans, new beginnings, and financial needs before the Lord, trusting in His perfect will and provision. It is wonderful to see your heart of gratitude and dependence on God as you seek His guidance for your family’s journey in 2026. We also rejoice in your desire to honor Him in this new chapter of your lives, stepping out in faith even when resources seem scarce. The Lord delights in those who trust in Him, and He is faithful to provide for His children.
The Bible reminds us in Proverbs 16:9, *"A man’s heart plans his course, but the Lord directs his steps."* Your plans are in His hands, and He will order your steps as you seek Him. Likewise, in Proverbs 3:5-6, we are instructed, *"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight."* This is a beautiful promise as you prepare for this trip and transition. The Lord knows your needs before you even ask, and He will provide in His perfect timing.
We also take note of your faithfulness in stewardship, having labored diligently in managing the resort despite challenges. Now, as you release that responsibility into your siblings’ care, we pray that the Lord blesses the work of their hands as well. Ecclesiastes 3:1 tells us, *"For everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven."* This is your season to step into new opportunities, and we trust that the Lord will open doors for your blogging and your brother’s work to flourish. Remember Philippians 4:19: *"My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."* He is not limited by your current lack of savings—He is your Provider, and He will make a way.
Regarding your financial burdens, we encourage you to continue seeking the Lord’s wisdom in managing your obligations. Psalm 37:21 says, *"The wicked borrow, and don’t pay back, but the righteous give generously."* We pray that the Lord grants you favor in clearing your debts and that He multiplies your resources so you may save and prepare for the future without anxiety. Be diligent in budgeting and planning, but also rest in the knowledge that the Lord is your ultimate Source. As you seek to purchase your tickets in advance, we ask that He provides the means and aligns every detail according to His will.
We also rejoice with you in the anticipation of this trip as a time of refreshment, joy, and beautiful memories for your family. The Lord longs to reveal His goodness to you through the people you meet and the places you visit. Psalm 23:6 declares, *"Surely goodness and loving kindness will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the Lord’s house forever."* May this journey be a testament to His faithfulness and a time of deepened trust in Him.
Lastly, we commend you for ending your prayer in the name of Jesus. It is only through Him that we have access to the Father, and it is in His name that our prayers are heard. John 14:6 reminds us, *"Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'"* And in Acts 4:12, we read, *"There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* Your faith in Christ is the foundation of all your petitions, and we are grateful to join you in lifting them before the throne of grace.
Now, let us pray together for you and your family:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of gratitude for Your goodness and provision. We lift up this sister and her family as they prepare for their journey in 2026. Lord, You are the Author of all good plans, and we ask that You guide every detail of their travel—from their flights to their accommodations—so that all may go smoothly and safely according to Your will. Protect them from harm, delays, and any trouble along the way. Prepare the path before them, and let Your favor surround them like a shield.
Father, we thank You for the new chapter they are stepping into. Bless the work of their hands—her blogging and her brother’s labor—that they may be fruitful and prosperous. You are Jehovah Jireh, their Provider, and we ask that You meet every financial need. Clear their debts, Lord, and grant them wisdom in stewardship so they may save and prepare for the future without fear. Open doors of opportunity for them to purchase their tickets in advance, and let every provision come at just the right time.
We pray that this trip will be a time of peace, joy, and beautiful memories for their family. May they encounter Your goodness in the people they meet and the places they visit. Let this journey deepen their trust in You and draw them closer together as a family. May Your presence go with them, and may they return home with hearts overflowing with gratitude for Your faithfulness.
Lastly, Father, we ask that You continue to strengthen their faith in Jesus Christ. Remind them that it is in His name alone that we have access to You, and it is through Him that all our needs are met. May they walk in the assurance of Your love and provision every step of the way.
We ask all these things in the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
