I bind the master spirit and strongman of Sabotage and any other master spirit or demon on assignment trying to rob me of my sleep. I rebuke distractions at rest time. You said, come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy-laden and overburdened (weary), and I will cause you to rest [I will ease and relieve and refresh your souls], Matthew 11:28 AMP. God grants sleep to those He loves; He gives [blessings] and sweet sleep to His beloved (Ps 127:2 NIV & AMP; Prov. 3:24). He promised me deep sleep, so I release it in Jesus’ name.
No demonic assignment will prevent me from getting my rest and sleep (Isa 22:22). When I lie down, I shall not be afraid; yes I shall lie down, and my sleep shall be sweet. I commission the angels to stand guard while my family and I are asleep. When I lie down and sleep in peace it is because the Lord keeps me safe (Ps. 4:8 NIV).
I thank You Lord for a restful, peaceful sleep, the discipline and wisdom in following through to rest and sleep properly so that I may be alert, strong and healthy for Your purpose and will. Psalms 127:2 says, it is vain for me to rise up early, to take rest late, to eat the bread of [anxious] toil – for He gives [blessings] to His beloved in sleep.
God wakens me morning by morning, and He wakens me for a purpose so that I can hear (Isa 50:4), therefore, upon rising I look forward to spending time with Him and I thank Him in advance for revealing mysteries to me (revelation of treasures from heaven); I also thank Him for answers to my prayers as I fellowship with Him in Jesus’ name. Amen.
Note:
As we sleep the body heals itself between the hours of 10:00 p.m. and 2:00 a.m.
