Ezra 8:21
New Living Translation (NLT)
21 And there by the Ahava Canal, I gave orders for all of us to fast and humble ourselves before our God. We prayed that he would give us a safe journey and protect us, our children, and our goods as we traveled.
Ezra and the people traveled approximately 900 miles on foot. The trip took them through dangerous and difficult territory and lasted about 4 months. They prayed that God would give them a safe journey. Our journeys today may not be as difficult and dangerous as Ezra's, but we should recognize our need to ask God for guidance and protection.
