Liaten to you Bible audio and pray prayers to the Father and have intimate time with God at night. And if you can’t sleep pray and listen to the Bible. May Lord Yeshua and the Father have compassion on you and give you rest for it. Only continue in prayer faith and worship. Amen.
We hear your cry for rest and peace, dear brother or sister, and we come before the throne of grace together in Jesus' name, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father. The Word tells us in Philippians 4:6-7, "In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus." We lift your burden of sleeplessness and stress to the Lord, asking Him to grant you the peace that transcends all understanding.
First, let us address the root of your sleeplessness—stress at work. The Lord does not intend for us to carry our burdens alone. In Matthew 11:28, Jesus says, "Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest." We encourage you to cast your anxieties upon Him, for He cares for you (1 Peter 5:7). Have you considered laying your work-related concerns at the feet of Jesus each night before you attempt to sleep? Surrendering your worries to Him in prayer can bring the peace your heart and mind desperately need.
We also want to gently remind you of the importance of guarding your mind and heart. In Psalm 4:8, David declares, "In peace I will both lie down and sleep, for you, Yahweh alone, make me live in safety." Are you filling your mind with things that are true, noble, right, pure, lovely, and admirable (Philippians 4:8)? Sometimes, the things we consume—whether through media, conversations, or even our own thoughts—can contribute to restlessness. We encourage you to meditate on Scripture before bed, allowing God’s Word to dwell richly in your heart.
Now, let us pray for you:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior. We lift up this dear one who is struggling with sleeplessness and stress. Lord, You are the God who neither slumbers nor sleeps (Psalm 121:4), and we ask You to watch over them as they seek rest. Father, we rebuke the spirit of anxiety and restlessness that has taken hold of their mind and body. We declare that Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, will guard their heart and mind in Christ Jesus.
Lord, we ask You to calm their thoughts and quiet their spirit. Give them the grace to release their work-related burdens into Your hands, trusting that You are in control. Help them to fix their eyes on You, the Author and Perfecter of their faith (Hebrews 12:2). Father, we pray for deep, restorative sleep to come upon them. May they lie down in peace and sleep, for it is You alone who makes them dwell in safety (Psalm 4:8).
We also ask You to strengthen them during their waking hours. Give them wisdom to manage their workload and the courage to set boundaries where needed. Lord, fill them with Your joy, for the joy of the Lord is their strength (Nehemiah 8:10). Remind them that their worth is not found in their work but in You alone.
We thank You, Father, for hearing our prayer. We trust in Your faithfulness and declare that this season of sleeplessness will come to an end. May Your presence surround them like a blanket of peace, and may they wake up refreshed and renewed, ready to face each day with confidence in You. In Jesus’ precious name, we pray. Amen.
In closing, we encourage you to establish a bedtime routine that includes prayer, reading Scripture, and perhaps listening to worship music or hymns. Psalm 119:148 says, "My eyes stay open through the watches of the night, that I may meditate on your promises." Let God’s promises be the last thing on your mind as you drift off to sleep. If stress continues to weigh heavily on you, consider speaking with a trusted pastor or biblical counselor who can help you navigate these challenges in a way that honors God. You are not alone in this struggle, and we stand with you in prayer, believing that God will restore your rest.

We're right there with you, friend, as you've been tossing and turning for these past two weeks. It's been a tough stretch, but we want you to know that you're not alone in your struggle. We're lifting you up in prayer, asking the Lord to grant you the peace that only He can give.
We've been thinking about how stress at work has been keeping you awake at night. The Bible tells us in Matthew 11:28-29, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls." We encourage you to cast your anxieties upon the Lord, for He cares for you (1 Peter 5:7). Have you tried journaling your concerns before bed, then surrendering them to Jesus? It might help you let go of those worries and find the rest you need.
We also want to remind you of the power of praise. In the Psalms, we see King David praising God even in the midst of his troubles. When we focus on God's goodness and greatness, it can shift our perspective and bring a sense of peace. Try listening to some worship music or even singing a hymn before bed. It might just help you find the rest you've been longing for.
Now, let's pray for you:
