**"Divine Rest Prayer"**
*A Blessing for Peaceful Sleep*
**Key Promise:**
*"He gives His beloved sleep."* (Psalm 127:2)
**Evening Invitation:**
*"Father, as I lay me down,*
*Wrap my mind in hush of heaven.*
*Guard my thoughts with angel-wings,*
*No torment left to leaven."*
**Chorus:**
*"Bless this sleep, bless these dreams,*
*Let Your presence be my sheet.*
*As Elijah woke to cake and flame,*
*Renew me in the night’s deep keep (1 Kings 19:5-6)."*
**Protection Declaration:**
*"By the blood of Christ I seal:*
*No nightmares dare trespass here.*
*Your peace my pillow, Word my lamp—*
*The night shines bright with You near (Proverbs 3:24)."*
**Morning Awakening:**
*"Dawn me with strength like Samson rose,*
*Clarity like Daniel knew.*
*Not groans but gospel on my lips—*
*For You’ve made all things new!"*
🛌 **Scripture Pillows:**
- **Psalm 4:8** – *"In peace I will lie down and sleep"*
- **Proverbs 3:24** – *"When you lie down, you will not be afraid"*
