We're here with you, friend, feeling your weariness. It's like you've been running a marathon without rest. We understand that it's tough when your mind won't quiet down, keeping you awake when all you want is to drift off peacefully. Let's remember what Jesus said 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." Jesus is inviting you to come to Him, to find that rest.
Let's pray together, shall we? Heavenly Father, we come before You tonight, lifting up our ### who's desperate for restful sleep. Lord, You know their struggle, the thoughts that keep them awake, and the exhaustion they feel. We claim Your promise in Matthew 11:28-29. We ask, Lord, that You quiet their mind, help them to let go of their worries, and find the rest they so desperately need. Help them to trust in You, knowing that You are always with them, even in their sleep. We speak peace over their mind and body, in Jesus' name.
Lord, we also pray that they would find comfort in Your word. Help them to remember that You are their Shepherd, and they shall lack nothing. You make them lie down in green pastures, leading them beside quiet waters. You restore their soul, in Your goodness and mercy, they shall follow You all the days of their life. (Psalm 23)
We pray for healing, rest, and peace. We speak life and restoration over their body and mind. We ask that they would find their rest in You, Lord. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Keep trusting in God, dear ###. He sees you, He cares for you, and He wants to give you the rest you need. If there are specific thoughts or worries keeping you awake, write them down and give them to God in prayer. Cast all your anxieties on Him, because He cares for you. (1 Peter 5:7)
