I'm Bishop T.D. Jakes inviting you to unwind your mind and spirit with tonight's sleep

song.

Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to your name give glory for your loving kindness and

for your true sake.

From 115, verse 1, Dear Lord, I pray you bless me with a calm spirit and a serene

mind.

Help me find stillness amidst this world's chaos and trust in your infinite goodness and

wisdom, even though I know I am flawed and I failed.

I humbly ask for your favor from your wellspring of kindness and grace adorn me with blessings.

May the peace of your presence feel my heart and may the light of your grace guide my

path.

Thank you, O Lord, for your onioning love and mercy in May your blessings overflow in all

areas of my life.

I will not wait for you anxiously.

I have seen your power, love, glory and faithfulness.

I trust and believe that you will move to bless me.

I trust that your name will elevate my life and that the good work you begin will

be completed cause a deep slumber to envelop me tonight, find no I can rest in your promises.

In Jesus' name, I pray, Amen.

Thank you for praying with me.

This is T.D. Jakes for tonight's episode of the Sleep Psalms podcast.

If this episode blessed you, follow the podcast.

Until you never miss a nightly encouragement.

Hello, I'm Grace.

For tonight's Sleep Psalm by Pray.com, we will be meditating on Psalm 115.

Focus your thoughts on God, meditate on His love, on His faithfulness, know He cares

for you and wants to give you rest.

With your next breath, lift your burdens to God, surrender your stress and anxiety from

today.

Let go of anything that is hindering you from resting peacefully.

As God lifts your burdens, feel your shoulders relax, your heart lighten, and your mind

calm.

Take a deep, cleansing breath.

When your lungs are completely filled with air, hold your breath for a few seconds, exhale

slowly, and allow the oxygen to rejuvenate every cell, every muscle, every joint, release

any stress in your muscles.

Open your mind and heart to hear God's voice.

Allow His Word to fill you with hope, joy, and peace.

Allow His voice to lead you to a safe, quiet space where you can experience deep, restful

sleep tonight.

Take a deep breath, close your eyes, and exhale slowly.

As we listen to tonight's Psalm, let's find comfort in knowing God will always care

for us and protect us.

We never have to be afraid, because He will never abandon us, nor will He ever forget

us.

Psalm 115 from the King James Version says,

Not unto us O Lord, not unto us, but unto thy name give glory, for thy mercy and for thy

truth's sake.

Therefore should the Heathen say, Where is now their God?

But our God is in the heavens.

He have done whatsoever He has pleased.

Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.

They have mouths, but they speak not.

Eyes have they, but they see not.

They have ears, but they hear not, noses have they, but they smell not.

They have hands, but they handle not.

They have they, but they walk not, neither speak they through their throat.

They that make them are like unto them, so is everyone the trusteth in them.

O Israel, trust thou in the Lord, He is their help and their shield.

O house of Aaron, trust in the Lord, He is their help and their shield.

Ye that fear the Lord, trust in the Lord, He is their help and their shield.

The Lord have been mindful of us.

He will bless us.

He will bless the house of Israel.

He will bless the house of Aaron.

He will bless them that fear the Lord, both small and great.

The Lord shall increase you more and more.

You and your children.

Ye are blessed of the Lord which made heaven and earth.

The heavens, even the heavens, are the Lord's, but the earth have he given to the children

of men.

The dead praise not the Lord, neither any that go down in silence.

But we will bless the Lord from this time forth and for ever more, praise the Lord.

Even on the darkest nights, we do not have to be afraid, because we know we serve the

one true God.

We can rest peacefully tonight, knowing God is always with us, caring for us and

protecting us.

Take a deep breath, bask in the presence of the Lord, exhale slowly, and allow his blessing

and favor to be poured upon you.

Feel your heart fill with thanksgiving and praise, rejoice in the Lord's faithfulness, rejoice

in his love.

With your next breath, be filled with the joy of the Lord.

As you exhale, allow his joy to flow through you, restoring you and keeping you warm through

the night.

Take another deep breath, put your trust in the Lord, look to him for help, exhale slowly,

and release any fears and worries.

Know the Lord covers you like a shield, defending you and protecting you against the darkness

in this world.

Rest securely in his hands.

Reflect on your priorities in life and the things or the people that matter the most

to you.

Think if anyone or anything comes before God in your life, confess any idols you worship.

Ask for his forgiveness, ask for him to help you put him above all other things and people

in your life.

Take a deep breath, be filled with his love and grace, exhale slowly and surrender any

guilt and shame you are carrying with you.

Know the Lord is faithful to forgive and faithful to love you always.

Think of the good things God has given you in life.

Thank him for the blessings you have received.

Thank him for his unfailing love and kindness, rejoice in his holy name.

Think of a person who needs their eyes and ears open to the Word of God.

Pray God will soften their heart and reveal himself to them.

Pray God will open their mind and help their unbelief.

The Lord always remembers us and hears our prayers.

Know he will answer them in his timing.

Lay your requests before the Lord.

Ask for his provision for tomorrow and his protection for tonight.

Pray for God to bless you and your family.

Pray he will help you serve him and praise him every day and a night.

Pray for God to deliver you from your struggles and sin.

Pray he will lead you down his path of life and righteousness to a quiet place where you

can rest throughout the night.

Pray for God to keep you and your family safe as you sleep.

Pray he will shield you from the darkness of the night.

Take a deep breath.

Exhale slowly and release any tension that is still lingering from today.

Relax your neck and shoulders.

Open your fingers and toes.

Breathe in and out slowly.

As you drift off to sleep, allow God's hope to come for you, his joy to warm your heart

and his peace to help you rest.

compromise, part of the home goods family.
