  Speaker 1: Hi, and welcome to this time of quiet Christian guided
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: meditation on Abide. This guide is here to help you
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: with any sleep or insomnia difficulties you may be having tonight.
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: You may want to consider playing it softly next to
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: your pillow as you rest tonight. If you fall asleep
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: before this time of meditation is over, don't worry. It
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: will stop automatically and you will fall asleep listening to
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: prayers and the sweet word of God. How beautiful is that.
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: If you don't fall asleep, then simply and softly tap
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: the replay button and you can join me again if
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: you like. Before we begin, and want you to get
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: into a comfortable place, take care of any physical distractions
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: such as noise or light. Find a temperature and a
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: place to lie down that is most comfortable for you. You
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: might take this moment to choose some music on a
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: bide that is peaceful for you, or you may choose
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: to simply listen in silence. So when you're ready, I
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: want you to close your eyes and relax as you
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: listen to my voice. Just relax and let me guide
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: you through prayer in the Word of God. One reason
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: you may be having trouble falling asleep is worrying and anxiety.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: So as we begin, let me lead you in your
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: first prayer of surrender and forgiveness. In this meditation we
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: hear the depth of David's heart. He wrote after a
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: visit from the Prophet Nathan, David had committed adultery with Bathsheba.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: This is a psalm of repentance, of sorrow and seeking restoration.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: As you hear this prayer from Psalm fifty one, feel
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: yourself relax, falling back and surrendering yourself into the loving
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: and forgiving arms of Jesus, releasing the weight of your
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: worldly cares as you focus on lightness of the gospel,
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: the good news of the death, burial, and resurrection of
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: your Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Let me pray for
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: you now, Oh peaceful and heavenly Father, You give this one,
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: your child, sleep for the refreshing of their soul and body.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: Grant this one this gift tonight. I pray keep them
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: in that perfect peace which you have promised to them
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: whose mind is fixed on you, and give them such
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: a sense of your presence that in these moments of
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: silence they may enjoy the blessed assurance of your love
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: through you, Oh peaceful and loving Father, Be merciful to
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: this one, Oh God, because of your constant love, because
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: of your great mercy, wipe away their sins, wash away
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: all evil, and make them clean from their sin. Tonight, tonight,
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: let them hear the sounds of joy and gladness, creating
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: them tonight a pure heart, Oh God, give them again
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: the joy that comes from your salvation. God, grant this
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: one piece so they can sleep soundlessly and awaken with
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: a renewed spirit, ready to face the day ahead. In
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: Jesus' nay Amen, feel Jesus, embrace, feel Jesus whispering his
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: love and care for you tonight as you sleep, As
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: you continue to relax, I want you to pace your
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: breathing as I read scripture to you. As I read
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: the first part of a passage, I want you to
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: very slowly breathe in. And then as I read the
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: second part of the passage, I want you to breathe out.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: Listen as I read from Psalm forty six, breathe in
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: slowly now as I read, God is our refuge and strength. Now,
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: breathe out slowly as I read, and a very present
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: help in your times of trouble. Pace your breathing in
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: and out slowly, again, as I pray over you from
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: Deuteronomy thirty one. Breathe in, be strong and courageous, and out.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: Do not fear or be in dread, and in slowly,
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: for it is the Lord your God and out who
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: goes with you, and he will not leave you out
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: or forsake you in the darkness. Now feel the presence
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: of Christ. Feel the strength of his arms around you,
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: Feel the tenderness of his hands as they rest on
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: your head. Relax into his presence, and again, pace your
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: breathing slowly, as this time I pray from Luke twelve.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: And don't be concerned about what to eat or what
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: to drink. Don't worry about such things. These things dominate
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: the thoughts of unbelievers. But your father already knows your needs.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and he
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: will give you everything you need. So don't be afraid,
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: little one, for it gives your father great happiness to
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: give you the kingdom. Dear peaceful Father, bless this one tonight.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: Bless them, give them your peace, Smile upon them, and
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: give them your rest tonight. In Jesus' nay. Amen, pace
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: your breathing slowly as I pray from lamentations to Lord God,
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: hear my cry out in the night at the beginning
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: of the night, watch help me pour out my heart
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: like water before you. Help me lift my hands to you,
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: Dear Peaceful Father, take the burdens of this your child tonight.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: Their burdens can seem so heavy at times. Tonight, help
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: them feel lighter or free, content, safe and loved in
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: your arms as you take their burdens in Jesus' name. Amen,
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: your eyes grow heavy, reading for a deep, RESTful sleep. Again,
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: pace your breathing as I pray from Psalm three and four.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: I lay down and sleep safely in peace with a
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: tranquil heart. I will lie down and sleep, for I
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: am alone with you, O Lord, help me dwell in
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: safety and confidence and trust in you. Dear Peaceful Father,
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: give this child tonight RESTful sleep, and let this time
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: of quiet meditation bring them peace, relaxation, and sleep. In
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: your arms, Lord, fill this night with your radiance for them.
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: May they sleep in peace in your name. Amen, slow
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: breathing in and out as I pray God's word over you.
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: When you lie down, You will not be afraid. When
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: you lie down, your sleep will be so. When you
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: will lie down, no one will make you afraid. Many
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: will rejoice with you. When you lay down, you will
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: be at peace. You will sleep, for the Lord keeps
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: you safe. When you lay down to sleep, behold, there
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: is an angel touching you. At this your sleep will
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: be pleasant to you. Dear peaceful Father, you have given
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: this child an example of gentleness and humility, a task
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: that is easy and a burden that is light. Accept
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: my prayers to give them the rest that will strengthen
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: them to be of more faithful service to you. In
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: Jesus name, Amen, pace your breathing as I pray from
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: Psalm sixty two. For God alone, my soul waits in silence.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: I quietly submit Him, for my hope is from him.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: He only is my rock. He only is my salvation.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: He only is my fortress. He only is my defense.
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: I will not be shaken. I will not be discouraged.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: On God only. My salvation rests on God only does
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: my glory rest. God is my rock. God is my
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: unyielding strength. My refuge is in God alone. I trust
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: confidently in Him at all times. Oh, God, help me,
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: help me sleep, Help me pour out my soul. Be
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: my refuge. Dear peace and RESTful Heavenly Father, send RESTful
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: sleep and refresh the tired body of this your child. Tonight.

  Speaker 1: May your help renew this one. Keep them held tight

  Speaker 1: with this one throughout the night in Jesus name, Amen,

  Speaker 1: pace your breathing as I pray from Isaiah twenty six.

• 13:12
  Speaker 1: deeply as you imagine yourself in the boat. Jesus and

  Speaker 1: his disciples are all around you. You hear Jesus tell

  Speaker 1: you to prepare, prepare to cross over the Sea of Galilee.
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: You watch as Jesus falls asleep. Jesus, your Savior, curls
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: up in the boat to sleep. You sit next to him.
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: You lean on him. As your Savior rests, the wind
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: begins to hit your face, the spray from the waves.
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: You begin to feel water at your feet. You wake
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: up your master, who is sleeping. You see the look
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: of peace in his eyes. You are in awe of
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: that peace. Jesus waves his hand, perhaps without taking his
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: eyes off of you. You feel the wind stop. The
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: waves are gone. Jesus whispers to you, my child, have
• 14:11

  Speaker 1: Breathe slow and deep as you hear God's words for
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: you tonight, as you lay down to sleep, do not
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: be afraid tonight. As you lay down tonight, let you sleep,

• 15:51
  Speaker 1: up in the morning fresh, for the Lord sustains and
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: cares for you. God will not let you move tonight.
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: You will be at peace. He will be there for
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: you all night. Because God does not slumber or sleep,
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: He stays with you so that you can sleep. Dear
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: peaceful Father, thank you for your peace, your care, your love,
• 16:17

• 16:21
  Speaker 1: sleep tonight as they sleep, let them feel your presence
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: over them. Let them sleep under your wings. And it
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: is in Jesus name I pray over them. Amen. So
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: when you're ready, I want you to close your eyes
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: and relax as you listen to my voice. Just relax
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: and let me guide you through prayer in the Word
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: of God. One reason you may be having trouble falling
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: asleep is worry and anxiety. So as we begin, let
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: me lead you when your first prayer of surrender and forgiveness.
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: In this meditation, we hear the depth of David's heart.
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: He wrote after a visit from the prophet Nathan, David
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: had committed adultery with Bathsheba. This is a psalm of repentance,
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: of sorrow and seeking restoration. As you hear this prayer
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: from Psalm fifty one, feel yourself relaxing, falling back, and
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: surrendering yourself into the loving and forgiving arms of Jesus,
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: releasing the weight of your worldly cares as you focus
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: on lightness of the Gospel, the good news of the death, burial,
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: and resurrection of your Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Let
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: me pray for you now, oh, peaceful and Heavenly Father,
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: you give this one, your child sleep for the refreshing
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: of their soul and body. Grant this one this gift tonight.
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: I pray keep them in that perfect peace which you
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: have promised to them whose mind is fixed on you.
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: And give them such a sense of your presence that
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: in these moments of silence, they may enjoy the blessed
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: assurance of your love through you, Oh peaceful and loving Father,
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: Be merciful to this one, Oh God, because of your
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: constant love, because of your great mercy, wipe away their sins,
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: wash away all evil, and make them clean from their sin. Tonight, tonight,
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: let them hear the sounds of joy and gladness, creating
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: them tonight a pure heart. Oh God, give them again
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: the joy that comes from your salvation. God, grant this
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: one piece so they can sleep soundlessly and awaken with
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: a renewed spirit, ready to face the day ahead. In
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: Jesus' name, Amen, feel Jesus. Embrace, feel Jesus whispering his
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: love and care for you. Tonight as you sleep, as
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: you continue to relax, I want you to pace your
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: breathing as I read scripture to you. As I read
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: the first part of a passage. I want you to
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: very slowly breathe in, and then as I read the
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: second part of the passage, I want you to breathe out.
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: Listen as I read from Psalm forty six. Breathe in
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: slowly now as I read, God is our refuge and strength.
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: Now breathe out slowly as I read, and a very
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: present help in your times of trouble. Pace your breathing
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: in and out slowly. Again, I pray over you from
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: Deuteronomy thirty one. Breathe in, be strong and courageous, end out.
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: Do not fear or be in dread, and end slowly.
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: For it is the Lord, your God and out who
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: goes with you, and he will not leave you out
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: or forsake you in the darkness. Now feel the presence
• 20:30
