Here is a promise for every night of your life, for every
20 minute power nap and 5 minute dozer. God assures us that we will have good
rest.
Sadly there are many, many restless Christians. Stop
believing your old habits have any power over you. Some say; “well I never
slept well.” Well good friend, a lot has changed. The fear of death and Hell,
the guilt and shame of your sin should have kept you up. You were under the
conviction of the Holy Spirit and a slave to sin. But now, you trust God. What
is on your mind? What is so pressing to take precious sleep?
God rested. He did this as a pattern for us to follow. Be
godly, sleep well. If you are one that does not sleep well, take a few minutes
and memorize this verse. Read the chapter over and over. Write down any fears
or stresses you have. Tell God He can deal with them tonight or the two of you
will deal with them in the morning. Rest is serious business. Invite God to be
involved. Good sleep demonstrates your trust in God. He wants you to have a
good night’s sleep.
