10 Powerful Bedtime Prayer to Round Up Your Day
After the day’s activities which are filled with stress, troubles, success, and sometimes breakthrough we must give thanks to God for piloting our affairs for the day. We might not be satisfied by the outcome of the day but still, we should return to God in appreciation. To thank the father for his divine protection and presence all through the day. You are to acknowledge the fact that without his presence and direction you can’t achieve anything. Even if we couldn’t meet up with our expectations, we should also thank God.
Sometimes we might be exhausted, frustrated, worn out, devastated, etc. We might not even see the need to thank God because the struggles, battles, and pain we encounter each day might discourage us from appreciating him. Our relationship, job, marriage, spiritual life, family issues, health challenges, financial challenges, etc may bring us down and make us weary. The devil knowing that our challenge will distract us from God usually uses this to his advantage.
The presence of God is the only assurance we have in moments like this. He has assured us of his presence all we need to do is to call on him. He gives us peace of mind, the type of peace that keeps us stable and hopeful even when things are bad. So when we pray before we go to bed, we usher God’s peace into our hearts. Which enables us to forget the troubles we encountered during the day and makes us have a sound sleep.
These prayers below will help you say an effective bedtime prayer;
