Can’t Sleep?

“In peace I will both lie down and sleep, for You, Lord, alone make me dwell in safety and confident trust.” What keeps us from falling asleep at night? Our bodies may well be exhausted but our minds are way too busy to sleep. The subconsciousness of a person can have its own agenda at night. According to our text today David is expressing, he’s somewhat declaring and decreeding that the Lord makes Him dwell in safety. We get caught up in the busyness of our day and there could be some unresolved issues or great concerns that stay in our heads when we try to sleep that night. God makes us dwell in safety. He has also said, when you lie down your sleep shall be sweet. Spending time with the Lord before bed can unclog some of the days problems you experienced. Putting on soft and calming music, preferably christian music, as that kind of music can carry the anointing of God, which brings peace and comfort. With our strong confession, and belief in God’s promises to us for sleep, we can lie down and our sleep will be sweet, for you along Lord, make me dwell in safety, so in reality there’s nothing to worry about. God takes care of that which concerns us so stop the worrying, the Lord’s got you. Now get some rest.
