We join you in lifting up this entire excursion to the Lord and we thank you for calling upon the name of Jesus, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father and confidence that He hears us.
We agree with you in asking for the Lord Jesus Himself to lead this group of tourists, to direct every step and to keep everyone under His watchful care. We ask Him to keep the bus and the ship safe, to give alertness and wisdom to the driver and the guide, to protect the hotel and every place visited, and to guard the food and water and the air and the whole atmosphere. We pray for a smooth schedule and for safe ways going out and coming in, trusting that Yahweh will keep your going out and your coming in, from this time forward, and forever more. Psalm 121:8
We also join you in asking for angelic protection, according to His promise that He will put his angels in charge of you, to guard you in all your ways. Psalm 91:11 and that The angel of Yahweh encamps around those who fear him, and delivers them. Psalm 34:7 We do not command angels on our own, but we humbly ask the Lord who commands the heavenly hosts to send His protection over every traveler and every detail, big and small.
We hear your heart as you plead the blood of Jesus Christ over everyone and everything. We cherish the precious blood of Jesus which was shed for our redemption, for if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ, his Son, cleanses us from all sin. 1 John 1:7 It is that same blood that reconciles us to God and gives us peace and protection under His covenant. So we pray that every person on this tour would be covered by His atoning grace, forgiven, cleansed, and kept from evil, and that every practical detail would be under the lordship and covering of Christ.
We also bring before the Lord your concern about finances and fairness. We pray that the hotel and all vendors will deal honestly and honor what was spoken and agreed upon, that you will not be asked to pay more than what was calculated before departure and that you will not suffer loss. We remember that A false balance is an abomination to Yahweh, but accurate weights are his delight. Proverbs 11:1 and we ask the Lord to establish integrity in every transaction. We pray for your peace in this, trusting that My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:19 and that A man's heart plans his course, but Yahweh directs his steps. Proverbs 16:9
We pray that joy would mark this trip, that the tourists would be truly happy and refreshed, and that their comments would be good and gracious, giving testimony to your faithful service and above all to the goodness of God. May this excursion be a witness of order, kindness, safety, and honesty.
Father, in the name of Jesus Christ we commit this group, this bus, this driver, this guide, this hotel, this ship, the food, the water, the air, the schedule and every way into Your hands. Lead them, guard them, provide for them, let no harm befall them, let no dishonest charge prevail, and let Your peace rest over the whole atmosphere. We ask that You would be glorified in all that is said and done, that travelers would return safely with grateful hearts, and that You would keep our brother from financial loss and anxiety. We trust Your sovereign hand over every detail and we thank You for hearing us through Jesus our Lord. Amen.
