I am reminded of your might. You are more fantastic
and vaster than the sea. Your voice is more commanding
than thunder. Yet you are not only powerful, you are

(00:52):

have assurance in your words and confidence in your ways
because you have been faithful since the beginning of days.

(03:03):
I'm Grace. For tonight's sleep Psalm Byprey dot com. We
will be meditating on Psalm ninety three. Breathe in and
out slowly. Retreat to a quiet space where you can
be free of distractions as you prepare to listen to
God's word. Once you are in a safe space where

(03:27):
you can rest in the presence of the Lord, lie
down on your back, keeping it flat and straight for
optimal oxygen flow. Rest your arms gently by your side
with your palms facing down. Use a soft pillow to
support your neck. Take a deep breath, Exhale slowly and

(03:53):
release any tension in your body. Clear your mind and
met a on the sovereignty of the Lord. Know he
is always in control and he uses his power for
your good. Take a deep breath, allow your lungs to

(04:13):
completely fill with air. Exhale slowly, and surrender all your
fears and doubts to the Lord. Feel a heaviness left
from your shoulders and heart. With your next exhale, relax
your neck and shoulders, and open up your chest and

(04:35):
heart as your mind calms. Ask the Lord to speak
to you through tonight's psalm. Allow the power of His
truth to comfort you. Tonight, the Bible reminds us the
Lord is stronger than the storms we face in our lives.
His power and strength can sustain us as we sleep.

(05:00):
Psalm ninety three from the King James's version says, the
Lord reigneth. He is clothed with majesty. The Lord is
clothed with strength, wherewith he hath girded himself. The world
also is established that it cannot be moved. Thy throne
is established of old. Thou art from everlasting. The floods

(05:25):
have lifted up, O Lord. The floods have lifted up
their voice. The floods lift up their waves. The Lord
on high is mightier than the noise of many waters,
yea than the mighty waves of the sea. Thy testimonies
are very sure. Holiness becometh thine house, O Lord, forever.

(05:50):
Reflect on the creation of the world. Think about the
power that brought the world into its existence and established
it so that it cannot be moved. Think about the
mighty seas that roar and rage throughout the day and night.
Know the same power that established the world is the

(06:12):
same power that establishes your steps, keeping you safe and
secure through the night. Take a deep breath. Allow the
Lord's strength to fill your lungs. Exhale slowly and feel
his strength flow to every bone, every muscle in your body,

(06:35):
restoring you and rejuvenating you as you rest in him.
Close your eyes and visualize the Lord as your king,
clothed with majesty, reining over all the earth, reiining over
your life. Know in his power and strength he can

(06:57):
strike down the storms that threaten to overtake you. Take
a deep breath. As your chest rises, Picture the waves
of the seas rising against you. Listen to the pounding
of the waves as they crash back and forth. Exhale
slowly and feel the Lord's mighty hands strike down the waters.

(07:23):
Hear his thundering voice over the roar of the mighty seas.
Breathe in and out slowly, and find comfort in the
strength of the Lord. Think of a time when you
buckled under pressure and abandon the ways of the Lord.

(07:43):
Ask for his forgiveness. Ask for him to make your
steps firm and secure, just like He did with the
foundation of the world. Breathe in his holiness. Breathe out
your sin and share in his strength. You can stand

(08:04):
firm in the face of temptation. In his power, you
can overcome sin and death. Rejoice in the power and
strength of the Lord. Thank him for the times he
has protected you from the storm. Thank him for the
times he has delivered you with his mighty hands. Thank

(08:26):
him for his salvation that is secure in his righteousness.
Think of a person who needs God's strength to sustain
them during a difficult time. Pray God will satisfy them
with his provision and protection. Pray God will turn their
heart to Him so they can experience his comfort and peace.

(08:51):
Cast your anxieties on the Lord, for he cares for you,
and his power is strong enough to relieve your fears
and worries. Pray God will help you follow his commands.
Pray God will help you be holy because He is holy.
Pray God will keep you in his perfect peace in

(09:14):
the middle of life storms. Pray you can experience deep,
RESTful sleep no matter what darkness surrounds you. Pray God
will protect you with his mighty hands as you sleep.
Pray you can rest safely and securely in Him through
the night. Breathe in and out slowly. Put your trust

(09:41):
in the Almighty God who never changes. Allow his power
and strength to restore your mind, body, and soul as
you rest tonight.
