10 soothing Bible verses that can be comforting to read before bed (below)
Today we will be dealing with powerful prayer points for good night sleep. To many people, a good night’s sleep is a special gift from the maker to end a stressful day. However, if your night sleep has ever been tormented with dreadful dreams, you will always get frightened when it gets dark. God is about to change that story today.
Regardless of the stress you went through during the day, a good night’s sleep is capable of replenishing the lost energy and keeping you motivated for the next day. For all you that are scared to close your eyes in the night due to constant terrible dreams, I decree by the authority of heaven that those powers destroying your sleep are destroyed today in the name of Jesus.
Prayer Points:

Regardless of the trouble or problem that I face, I strongly believe you are God and you are powerful to take them away. So this night I will sleep like a champion, like a man without trouble. And tomorrow when I wake, I pray for the ability to accept a new day with huge possibilities in the name of Jesus.
- Father Lord, instead of terrible dreams, I pray for an encounter, such that I will never forget in a rush. I pray that you make it happen tonight in the name of Jesus. I pray that when I sleep tonight, let me see the angels of the lord, let them minister to me.
- Father Lord, I cast all my cares and worry on you. Tonight I will sleep without trouble. Your words says, Come to me, all you who labor and are overburdened, and I will give you rest. Shoulder my yoke and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. Yes, my yoke is easy and my burden light.’ Lord, I laid my problems down to the cross. Every problem that may want to disrupt me sleep tonight, I lay them down at the cross tonight in the name of Jesus.
- Lord Just like the Psalmist says In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, LORD, make me dwell in safety. Lord, I believe my safety with you not compromised.
