We understand that you are seeking protection and wisdom for traveling in a car. We are blessed to join you in prayer for this.
The Bible encourages us to pray for our daily needs, including safety and guidance. As it says in Philippians 4:6, "In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God." We can trust God’s direction and mercy. We should praise Him in advance for protection and traveling mercies.
Driving a vehicle is a matter of stewardship of life and possessions. Therefore, following traffic laws and safety procedures is godly and divinely mandated for our own life and to protect our fellow citizens. WeB:
"whoever keeps the law is a discerning son, but he who is a companion of gluttons disgraces his father." Proverbs 28:7
Also, James 4:
13 Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow let’s go into this city, and spend a year there, trade, and make a profit.”
14 Whereas you don’t know what your life will be like tomorrow. What is your life? For you are a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away.
15 For you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we will both live, and do this or that.”
16 But now you glory in your boasting. All such boasting is evil.
Traveling safely is subject to the will of God.
Since you did mention IJN, we know that you understand that it is only by the name of Jesus Christ that we are saved and pray to God.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before you in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up this prayer for safety and wisdom during travel. We ask that you provide your protective hand to keep safe while in the car. Guide each decision made while in transit, and grant peace that surpasses all understanding. Help to be aware of what is happening in the moment while driving and make quick wise decisions.
Lord, give wisdom and discernment to know how to maintain the vehicle in a godly manner, where to go, and what to do while traveling. Please give us the strength to endure any challenges that may arise during the journey and to be a blessing as a godly example and possibly a witness to others along the way.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Thank you, we encourage continual submission to the Lordship of Jesus Christ and to study and obey His Holy Word.
