Speaker 2 (02:56):
Hello, I'm Grace. For tonight's sleep Psalm by Prey dot com.
We will be meditating on Psalm twenty nine. Take a
deep breath. Feel your chest rise as you inhale, allow
your lungs to completely fill with air. Then exhale slowly.

(03:20):
Notice how your chest falls as the air expels from
your lungs, allowing the oxygen to flow freely throughout your
body to rejuvenate you and restore you. Take another deep breath.
As you breathe in, imagine being filled with God's peace.

(03:42):
When you exhale, imagine His piece spreading throughout your body,
releasing the tension in your muscles and easing your anxious thoughts.
Breathe in His peace and breathe out your stress from today.
Breathe in and out and focus your thoughts on God's

(04:05):
strength that sustains you through the night. Reflect on his sovereignty.
Know he is in control of our world and your life.
Trust in Him to night, rest in his comforting presence.
Feel your joints soften and your fingers and toes relax

(04:27):
as you surrender to the Lord. Now focus on opening
your heart to hear God's voice. Ask for him to
speak to you tonight. Allow his powerful voice to calm
your mind and heart. To night you can find rest

(04:47):
knowing God will give you strength to face whatever tomorrow brings,
and He will bless you with his peace to help
you sleep. Psalm twenty nine from the King Sames version says,
give unto the Lord, O, ye Mighty, give unto the
Lord glory and strength. Give unto the Lord the glory.

(05:11):
Do unto his name. Worship the Lord in the beauty
of holiness. The voice of the Lord is upon the waters.
The God of Glory thundereth. The Lord is upon many waters.
The voice of the Lord is powerful. The voice of
the Lord is full of majesty. The voice of the

(05:33):
Lord breaketh the cedars. Yea, the Lord breaketh the cedars
of Lebanon. He maketh them also to skip like a calf.
Lebanon and syrion like a young unicorn. The voice of
the Lord divideth the flames of fire. The voice of
the Lord shaketh the wilderness. The Lord shaketh the wilderness

(05:56):
of Kadesh. The voice of the Lord maketh the hinds
to calve and discovereth the forests. And in his temple
doth everyone speak of his glory. The Lord sitteth upon
the flood Yea. The Lord sitteth king forever. The Lord
will give strength unto his people. The Lord will bless

(06:19):
his people with peace. Meditate on the Lord's majesty and power.
Bask in his glory, feeling his radiant light shining upon you,
keeping you warm through the night. Breathe then and out,
close your eyes and imagine God in his glory, sitting

(06:43):
on his heavenly throne. Look at the brilliance of his light,
reminding you that you are not alone in the darkness
of the night. Hear his voice that is powerful enough
to break cedars and thunder over the waters, but gentle
enough to soothe your soul. As you lie down to sleep,

(07:06):
allow his sovereignty to bring you hope for tomorrow and
peace for to night. Take another deep breath. Feel his
strength fill your body and courage, fill your heart. Feel
your soul lighten as your worry and anxiety is lifted
by His mighty hands. Know when you feel weak and

(07:30):
limited by your circumstances, God will give you strength and
his power can help you to overcome anything you face
in this world. Just release everything to Him and be
comforted by His strength and sovereignty to help relax your mind, body,

(07:51):
and soul. Think of a time when you doubt it
God's power. Confess any fears and doubts you have. Know
He is always with you. His power is always available
to you. Take a deep breath, Allow his forgiveness to

(08:12):
wash over you as you exhale. Release any shame you
are experiencing. Know you are his and He will bless
you with his grace and peace. Tonight, think of a
time when God's strength helped you face a difficult time
in your life. Praise Him for his comfort. Praise Him

(08:35):
for the power he has given you to overcome this world.
Think of someone who needs a miracle right now. Pray
God will intervene on their behalf and he will bless
them with his peace. As you lie down, call upon
the Lord and lift up your requests. His power can

(08:57):
do amazing things in you and for you. Believe He
will give you strength to sustain you through the night.
Pray over a difficult situation in your life. Pray for
God to intervene with his power and deliver you. Pray
God will empower you to do his work in this world.

(09:19):
Pray his strength will give you courage to face whatever
comes tomorrow. Pray God will protect you and your family
to night. Pray his peace will help you experience deep,
RESTful sleep that will refresh your soul and rejuvenate your body.
Take a deep breath. As you exhale, release any tension

(09:45):
and stress that is still lingering from to day. Allow
God's peace to wash over you and relax your body.
Feel your body soften and your mind settle. As your

your spirit with his peace as you rest through the night.
