Father God, in the name of Jesus, we give you glory and honor and praise. We magnify your Holy name. For you are our God, our Lord, and our Savior. And we thank you for your many blessings in our lives. You have blessed us in so many ways. And our hearts so grateful. Now, God, I pray for those that are struggling to find peace and rest. For those that are struggling to even sleep at night, I pray God in the name of Jesus, that you would comfort their hearts and their minds and their souls.
God, I pray that they would have a mind to invite you into their situations, into their circumstances. God, that they would cast their cares upon you, knowing that you care for them. And God, I pray in the name of Jesus as they sleep, they will find restful peace in Jesus' name. That peace comes from you.
I pray, God that their sleep would be sweet. And that they will wake up in the morning refreshed, re-energized, with new hope, a new expectation, in the name of Jesus. Knowing that you are with them. Knowing that you will take care of them for you always present. Your word says I will never leave you, nor forsake you. So God, in the name of Jesus, again, we pray for restful sleep. In Jesus' name and we thank you for it. We give you glory. We give you praise. That you are addressing all of our anxieties. And for those that have not been able to sleep and spend restless nights, you are exchanging that by your power and through your grace that as a result of hearing this prayer, they will sleep restful.
And they'll wake up, again, with new energies and new hope. In Jesus' name. For you can do it. We trust you. And we pray this prayer in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen.
