PROMISE #265 - SEPTEMBER 22
Promise #265:
I will give you a peaceful sleep surrounded by safety.
Psalm 4:8 (WEB)
In peace I will both lay myself down and sleep,
for you, Yahweh alone, make me live in safety.
Many things in this world cause us to be afraid and to not feel at peace. As a result, many people struggle with sleep at night because they have numerous anxious thoughts circulating in their minds.
Jesus was able to sleep on boats amid storms. He is the Prince of Peace and promised to give us His peace. In John 14:27, Jesus says... Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled, and do not be afraid. (NIV)
His encouragement to us today is not to be afraid. He will make us lie down in peace and have a restful sleep surrounded by His abiding sense of safety. For all those who struggle with getting a good night's sleep, I pray that this promise will become a tangible reality for you today.
May you go to sleep tonight without dreading a night of tossing and turning. May the tangible presence of the Prince of Peace surround and envelope you with His love so that you can feel truly safe and have the best sleep of your life!
