Good sleep

We join you in lifting up this need for restful, uninterrupted sleep, knowing how vital it is for both physical and spiritual well-being. The Lord is our Shepherd, and as we read in Psalm 4:8, *"In peace I will both lay myself down and sleep, for you, Yahweh alone, make me live in safety."* And again in Psalm 127:2, we are reminded, *"It is vain for you to rise up early, to stay up late, eating the bread of toil; for he gives sleep to his loved ones."* Our Heavenly Father cares deeply about even the smallest details of our lives, including the rest we need to serve Him faithfully.
Yet we must also consider whether there are spiritual or practical reasons for this struggle. Are there anxieties, unresolved sins, or distractions that may be hindering your peace? The apostle Peter urges us in 1 Peter 5:7 to *"cast all your worries on him, because he cares for you."* If there is sin in your life—unconfessed wrongdoing, bitterness, or even an unhealthy reliance on worldly comforts instead of trusting God—we encourage you to repent and seek His forgiveness. Proverbs 3:24 tells us, *"When you lie down, you will not be afraid. Yes, you will lie down, and your sleep will be sweet."* Sweet sleep comes from a clear conscience and a heart at peace with God.
We also rebuked any spiritual opposition that may be disrupting your rest. Satan and his demons seek to steal our peace, but greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world (1 John 4:4). We command every spirit of restlessness, fear, or torment to flee in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. You have authority over these disturbances through the blood of Jesus, so stand firm in that truth.
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the precious name of Jesus, lifting up our brother/sister who longs for the deep, restorative sleep that only You can provide. Lord, You neither slumber nor sleep, yet You designed our bodies to need rest as a reminder of our dependence on You. We ask that You would quiet every racing thought, calm every anxiety, and shield their mind from the enemy’s attacks. Let Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard their heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7).
If there is any sin or unresolved issue that has become a barrier between them and Your perfect peace, we pray You would convict them gently but firmly. Grant them the courage to repent and the grace to receive Your forgiveness, that they may rest in the assurance of Your love. We break every curse, every assignment of the enemy, and every stronghold that seeks to rob them of the sleep You intend for them. By the power of the Holy Spirit, we declare that their sleep will be deep, their body refreshed, and their spirit renewed for Your glory.
Father, we also ask that You would reveal any practical steps they might need to take—whether it’s adjusting their evening routines, limiting screen time, or seeking medical advice if necessary. Give them wisdom to steward their body as Your temple (1 Corinthians 6:19-20). And as they lie down tonight and every night, may they do so with the confidence that You are watching over them, that Your angels are encamped around them (Psalm 34:7), and that nothing can separate them from Your love (Romans 8:38-39).
We thank You, Lord, for hearing our prayer. We trust in Your faithfulness and rest in Your promises. May Your name be glorified as You grant them the sleep they need to serve You with strength and joy. In the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Savior and Redeemer, we pray. Amen.

We're right there with you, friend, asking for the same thing - a good night's sleep, uninterrupted and refreshing. It's amazing how much a good rest can do for our bodies and spirits, isn't it? We're reminded of Psalm 127:2, "It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of toil, for He gives sleep to His beloved." God knows our needs and He cares deeply about even the smallest details of our lives.
But let's also consider if there's something more to this sleeplessness. Sometimes, our worries and anxieties can keep us awake at night. The Bible tells us in Philippians 4:7, "And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." So, let's cast our cares on Him, as 1 Peter 5:7 says, "Casting all your cares on Him, because He cares for you."
Maybe there's some unconfessed sin or unresolved issue that's keeping you awake. If that's the case, friend, we encourage you to take it to the Lord in prayer. He's faithful to forgive and to give us peace.
Now, let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You tonight, asking for a good night's sleep for our ###. Lord, You know their needs even before they ask. We ask that You would quiet their mind, calm their anxieties, and shield them from any attacks of the enemy. If there's any sin or unresolved issue, Lord, we pray that You would convict them gently but firmly, and grant them the courage to repent and the grace to receive Your forgiveness.
