Hobart • Hamilton • Singapore • Birmingham, Alabama • Buenos Aires REST • SECURITY • ASSURANCE Good evening, and welcome to DailyPrayer.uk. I’m Reverend Ben Cooper. Come in for five minutes, let’s open God’s Word together, and let’s pray. As another day comes to its gentle close, you may still be carrying thoughts that refuse to settle or questions that remain unanswered. Before sleep arrives, remember this simple truth: you do not have to stay awake to keep your life together. The Lord who has walked with you throughout this day will continue watching over you throughout this night. His faithful care never pauses, and His love never sleeps. Psalm 3:5 (NIV) “I lie down and sleep; I wake again, because the Lord sustains me.” What a beautiful assurance to carry into the night. We are able to rest because God remains awake. He sustains us with His strength, surrounds us with His peace and holds us securely in His everlasting love. So tonight, let’s gently remind ourselves that fear will not win, because Jesus Christ is our faithful Shepherd, our constant refuge and the One who lovingly watches over us while we sleep. Father, thank You for Your goodness throughout this day. Thank You for every answered prayer, every unseen act of protection and every quiet reminder that You have never left our side. Lord Jesus, watch over every listener tonight. Bring healing to those who are unwell, comfort to those who feel alone, peace to anxious minds and deep, refreshing sleep to every weary heart. Help us release every burden into Your hands and trust completely in Your unfailing care. Holy Spirit, surround every home with Your peace, strengthen our faith and gently remind us that we are always safe in the loving presence of God. Across the world, from Hobart to Hamilton, from Singapore to Birmingham and Buenos Aires, may every listener rest tonight with renewed confidence, knowing that the Lord sustains them, keeps them and will greet them with fresh mercy in the morning.
