Lord, thank you for the opportunity to be able to travel in this season. You have sustained me and my loved ones, and I am grateful. You say in Psalm 121:8 that you shall preserve my going out and coming in from this time forth and forevermore. Preserve my life and get me to my destination and back home safely. I may not see the dangers along the way, but I ask that you keep me away from them. Watch over my steps Lord. My life is in your hands, and I trust that you will keep me safe.
In the mighty name of Jesus, amen and amen.

Dear God, I bow before you, asking for your blessing and praying that you allow no destruction to come my way as I travel from one place to another. Grant my prayers, that I may not acquire sickness as I interact with other people. As I traverse to different places, Let the road rise and allow me to see you in unfamiliar places and experience your love in the faces of other people.
