BOOK EXCERPT 

There are several things that you need to do before setting out on a journey especially if you are travelling through dangerous places and you want to reach your destination safely. The first thing that you have to do is to:

1. Pray

We can see that when Ezra and the Israelites needed God’s protection for their upcoming journey from Babylon to Jerusalem, they prayed for Ezra said, I was ashamed to ask the king for an escort of soldiers and horsemen to help us against the enemy on the road, because we had told the king that, “The hand of our God is upon all those for good who seek Him, but His power and His wrath are against all those who forsake Him.” (Ezra 8:22)

Therefore, set aside some time to pray and seek the Lord’s protection as you travel. Imitate Moses also, and seek the Lord’s presence as you travel for he said to God as they journeyed through the wilderness to their Promised Land, “If your Presence does not go with us, then do not bring us up from here.” (Exodus 33:15)

Biblical prayers for safe travel that you can pray include:

1. Father God, I pray to You in the name of Jesus for, and ask you to give me the shield of Your salvation and let Your right hand hold me up. Let your gentleness make me great and enlarge the path under me so that my feet do not slip. (Adapted Psalm 18:35-36)

2. Father God, I pray to You in the name of Jesus and ask you to lift up the light of Your countenance upon us and put gladness in our hearts ... Let us both lie down in peace, and sleep for You alone, O Lord, make us dwell and travel in safety. (Adapted Psalm 4:6-8)
