A Prayer of Power for a mission trip

Lord,

You know I’m leaving on a mission trip in a few days.
I’m a bit of a lunatic right now–
so much to do,
and so many concerns.

I know you’ll give me enough time and energy to do it.
I know I need to focus on prayer and preparation of my heart.
I know it’s about you, not me.

Help me.

And go before me.
I pray your Spirit to hover over our destination,
to stir hearts and longings to know you.
I ask that your angels wage war in the spirit realm,
binding the enemy
who enslaves and robs and lies to these dear people.

In Jesus’ name, open up the heavens and pour out your Spirit on this country
and on my team.
Fill us and use us and change us, O God,
according to your will and your purpose.
May our insecurity, pride, and fear not stand in the way of your work.

Overwhelm us with your love and power.
Transform us.
Transform these people.
May they bind the devil in Jesus’ name.

I pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus,
Amen.
