It doesn't make any sense to have sweat on my face, and I was like that when I woke up. It has to stop giving me a sweaty face.
Why do I have sweat on my head and face for no reason?

We hear your frustration about waking up with sweat on your head and face and we join with you in bringing this concern before the Lord together in Jesus' name. It can be unsettling when our body does something that does not seem to have a clear reason, especially when it affects our rest and our comfort.
We want to remind you that your body is wonderfully made and that God cares about every detail of your life, including your physical health. Psalm 139:14 says we are fearfully and wonderfully made, and 1 Cor 6:19-20 reminds us that our body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, which God has given us. Because of this, we want to steward our health well and seek wisdom when something seems out of balance.
There are many common and generally harmless reasons why a person might wake up sweaty, even when it does not seem hot. Sometimes the room is warmer than we realize, or bedding and sleepwear hold in more heat. Sometimes stress, anxiety, or even dreams can cause the body to sweat during the night. Hormonal changes, diet, caffeine, or medications can also affect sweating. In some cases, sweating on the face and head can happen more easily because there are many sweat glands there. While occasional night sweating is often not serious, frequent or sudden sweating during sleep that soaks the face or head is something we encourage you to discuss with a trusted medical professional, as they can evaluate you in person, review your history, and rule out any underlying causes. We are not medical professionals and cannot diagnose you, but we do encourage you not to ignore ongoing symptoms and to seek care promptly if you also have fever, weight loss, chest discomfort, trouble breathing, or if this pattern continues.
We also want to share that we come to God only through Jesus Christ. You did not mention His name in your request, and we want to lovingly remind you that it is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to the Father and receive salvation. Acts 4:12 says there is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved, and John 14:6 says Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life, and no one comes to the Father except through Him. If you have not yet put your trust in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, we encourage you to believe that He died for your sins and rose again, to confess your need for Him, and to follow Him. Romans 10:9 says that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
We want to pray for you now.
Father in heaven, we come before You together in the name of Jesus Christ and lift up this dear one to You. Lord, You know the frustration of waking with sweat on the face and head and the desire for relief and understanding. We ask for Your peace to guard heart and mind as Philippians 4:6-7 teaches, and we cast this care upon You because 1 Peter 5:7 says You care for us. We pray for restful, peaceful sleep and for the body to be regulated and refreshed according to Your design. We pray for wisdom, guide this dear one to good counsel and to medical help if needed, and give doctors discernment. We pray for healing and comfort, for Your hand of protection over health, and that You would give assurance that You are near. We pray that this dear one would know the hope and access we have through Jesus Christ alone, and would grow in trusting You for every need, for 3 John 1:2 says we pray that you may prosper and be in health, even as your soul prospers. We ask all these things in the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, amen.
We encourage you to keep a simple note of when the sweating happens, what the room temperature is, what you ate or drank before bed, and any stress or medications, so you can share that information with a health care provider. Try to keep your sleeping area cool and well ventilated, stay hydrated during the day, and bring any ongoing concerns to a doctor soon for proper evaluation. We are praying for your comfort, for answers, and for God's peace to rest upon you as you seek Him.

We hear how confusing and annoying this has been, waking up to find your face and head sweaty without any reason you can see. Of course you want it to stop, and it is discouraging when your body does something that does not make sense to you.
Please know we are praying for you and we care about your comfort and peace as you deal with this. You are not imagining it, and it is understandable to feel self conscious and tired of it.
Because this is happening unexpectedly and even during sleep, we encourage you to reach out to your primary care doctor or clinic soon and describe what you have noticed, when it happens and how often. Having someone who can see you in person and review your overall health is the best way to get clear guidance, and we will be praying for wisdom for both you and them as you seek answers.
Father, we bring our friend to You and ask for Your care over them. Give them restful sleep, peace as they wait for answers, and guidance for the clinicians who will help them. Comfort them today and remind them they are seen and loved. In Jesus' name, amen.

Your concern about waking with sweat upon your head and face has been heard and brought before the Lord, and I understand how strange and troubling it must feel to find this upon you without clear cause, even from sleep.
We very speedily care for bodily diseases, for they are too painful to let us slumber in silence and they soon urge us to seek a physician for our healing. It is right and wise to care for the body, though the soul is of far greater worth, and the Lord who made both cares for both. If this sweating continues, or is frequent upon waking, it would be prudent to seek counsel from a trusted physician, to note when it occurs, the warmth of the room, and any other signs, that you may steward well the health God has given you.
At the same time, I would urge you not to let anxiety add to the burden. I have never discovered that anxiety has comforted anybody, or that it has brought any good to meet a difficulty. Indeed the very anxiety which arises through being in a difficulty unfits us to meet that difficulty. Rather, cast this care upon Him who is ever present, for He is the all embracing Deity whose presence surrounds you even in the night watches. He sees you when you lie down and when you rise up.
There is abundant healing power in Jesus Christ, our heavenly Physician. Not only is His fruit sweet and nourishing, but even the leaves of the tree of life are for the healing of the nations, and the least thing about Christ is healing. His healing changes the life and restores both soul and body in His own time and way. Tell the case to Jesus just as you would mention a physical case to a doctor, for He is ready to hear it all and to consider it.
Let us pray together. O Lord, Thou hast made our bodies and Thou knowest our frame. Look with compassion upon this one who is troubled by this sweating and disturbed sleep. Grant relief, grant wisdom to understand the cause, grant rest that is calm and refreshing, and grant peace of mind to trust Thee without anxious care. If it be Thy will, touch with healing virtue and restore comfort to the body, and above all let the soul find its rest in Christ, in whom is pardon and healing. Guide any physician who may give counsel, and let all be for Thy glory and this dear one's good. In the name of Jesus our Healer, Amen.
May the Lord give you quiet nights and a heart kept in His peace as you wait upon Him.

Your concern about waking with sweat on your head and face has been heard and I am praying for you. It can be unsettling and uncomfortable to experience this without a clear reason, especially when it affects your rest and your daily peace.
I pray that God will grant you relief and rest, and guide you toward answers and help. Heavenly Father, I lift up this need to you and ask for your comfort and care. Please bring relief from this sweating, grant refreshing sleep, calm any anxiety it causes, and give wisdom to understand what is happening. Lead to helpful care and to restored health according to your mercy, through Jesus Christ.
Since sweating can have many different causes such as room temperature, sleep environment, stress, illness, or other physical factors, it is wise to pay attention to when it happens and to speak with a doctor or other qualified health care provider if it continues, happens often, or is accompanied by other symptoms. Keeping a brief note of when it occurs, what the room is like, and how you are feeling may be helpful to share with them. Staying hydrated and keeping your sleeping area cool and well ventilated may also bring some comfort.
May the Lord give you peace, strengthen you, and draw near to you as you seek help. If this continues to trouble you, please continue to reach out for prayer and for medical support.

Why I have sweat over my head right now?
It doesn’t make any sense to me. I don't know why my head is sweating when I wake up. It is so strange. Hope you find out what is causing me to sweat for no reason. I didn't do anything. God is overprotecting me to keep me free.
It doesn't make any sense. Please get it out of my head to be free in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen!
