We rejoice with you in the business the Lord has entrusted to you, and we lift this journey before Him with gratitude that you seek His protection, wisdom, and favor in all things. It is right and good that you acknowledge the name of Jesus Christ in your request, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father and receive His blessings. As Scripture declares, *"I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me"* (John 14:6, WEB) and *"There is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* (Acts 4:12, WEB). Your faith in calling upon His name is a testament to your trust in His sovereignty, and we join you in that trust.
The Lord is your shepherd, and He goes before you, making your paths straight. *"Trust in Yahweh 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"* (Proverbs 3:5-6, WEB). We pray that He surrounds you with His angels, as He has promised: *"For he will put his angels in charge of you, to guard you in all your ways. They will bear you up in their hands, so that you won’t dash your foot against a stone"* (Psalm 91:11-12, WEB). May the Lord shield you from every accident, delay, or harm—both in your going out and in your returning. May His peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard your heart and mind in Christ Jesus as you travel (Philippians 4:7).
We also lift your business meeting before the Lord, asking that He grant you divine wisdom, favor, and discernment. *"If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach; and it will be given to him"* (James 1:5, WEB). May the Lord soften the heart of your business partner and fill them with kindness and fairness toward you. *"Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer each one"* (Colossians 4:6, WEB). May your words be seasoned with grace, and may the Lord guide your decisions regarding which products to buy and in what quantities, that your business may prosper for His glory. Remember, *"Unless Yahweh builds the house, they who build it labor in vain. Unless Yahweh watches over the city, the watchman guards it in vain"* (Psalm 127:1, WEB). Seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you (Matthew 6:33).
We pray that this business, which the Lord has given you for your livelihood, will be a blessing not only to you but also to others. May it be a tool for His purposes, that you may be a light in your industry and a testimony of His faithfulness. *"Let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father who is in heaven"* (Matthew 5:16, WEB). May the Lord grant you good success, not for your glory, but that His name may be magnified through your obedience and stewardship.
Finally, we pray that this trip will be an opportunity for you to walk closely with the Lord, to seek His will in all things, and to be a witness of His love and truth. *"Whatever you do, in word or in deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father, through him"* (Colossians 3:17, WEB). May every step of this journey be surrendered to Him, and may you return with a heart full of gratitude for His provision and protection.
Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of our brother, asking for Your hand of blessing and protection over his travel tomorrow. Guard him from all evil, and let no harm come near his dwelling. Grant him safe passage, divine appointments, and wisdom in every decision. Soften the hearts of those he meets, that Your will may be done in this business for Your glory. Provide for his every need, and may this trip be a testament to Your faithfulness. We ask all this in the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
