I have PTSD from my military service. I’ve had trouble sleeping since my deployment to Iraq in 2007. Around 5 years ago, I started using marijuana to help me sleep. It worked great. I don’t use it to get high; I just use a little right before I want to sleep. Now, I want to stop using it because I’m hiding it from my family. I also don’t like being dependent on something. Last night, I made it to 12:30 am before I caved. I get so tired that I feel miserable. I need prayers for God to help me withstand that miserable feeling and push through. I am so weak on my own. Please pray for me!! Thank you
April 17, 2024 at 1:54 pmDear dab sibling SG224; Thank you for your honorable service to our beloved country the USA 🇺🇸 May Gods blessings be upon you to the overflowing 🙌🙏✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ Praying this scripture over you and humbly asking the good lord to help you overcome and deliver you from this addiction to majuana/or any other substance that you use. 🙌✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨🥰 Psalm 4. “In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, Lord, make me dwell in safety.” Fall asleep to the comforting promise of this Psalm as you name and lay your worries down at God’s feet—one by one. Hand your stress over to Jesus dear brother as the Holy Spirit instructs you to, and meditate on this good night Bible verse as you sleep in peace. ✌️ ☮️ Amen 🙌🙏🙏 Be encouraged. Shalom💕
April 17, 2024 at 7:43 pmDon’t forget the importance of exercise, sunshine, magnesium, getting rid of LED bright lights, a good comfortable sleep routine with lots of time to wind down, and prayer giving the burden of sleep back to our Lord instead of clutching it ourselves. Dear Abba Father, please bring both spiritual and physical rest today. May the worry and exhaustion be replaced by Your sweet and tender care, Your comfort, and Your rest I ask in Jesus’ Mighty and Healing Name! Matthew 11:28-30 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” Philippians 4:6-7 “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”

April 17, 2024 at 11:30 pmSG224, asking the LORD to give you a craving to be filled with the Holy Spirit. Father, drive out the weed and fill my dear brother with Your pure and unadulterated presence. There is nothing better than the Originator of life itself. You, LORD God and no guilt. Purity with power and holiness. Thank You for comforting SG224, let him sense Your gentle presence and peace that surpasses all understanding. Fill SG224 with psalms, hymns and spiritual songs making melody in his heart to You [ basis: Ephesians 5:19 ] May Your living Word be his medicine to displace this created thing. Let him purpose in his heart to chose the Creator over the created. Let him put on Christ. Put on the full armor of God and see the healing become real and present through faith. Basis: Ephesians 6:10-18. Your weapon is His word in you and being fully clothed in Him. He will complete the good work He’s begun in you. Be humble and His grace will fill your life and overtake you. You will be His and He will never fail you, though you should stumble and fall. He cuts covenant with you and will transform you into His image if you let Him be the potter that molds the clay. Pulling for you, SG224. Our God is the good Shepherd. He is King Jesus and will never disappoint you. He will guide you through His Word, Christ-centered godly annointed counselors and prayer… but you must decide to make Him your LORD. He is worthy and will bring you His good success in His way and purposes if you let Him . . . there is healing in His wings. Pulling for you bro’ in prayer. Amen.
April 18, 2024 at 4:40 amSG. Give it abit more time. You may have to have a few sleepless nights to get to be able to sleep on your own. I used to take sleeping pills but when I wanted to quit there was quite a price to pay. Many sleepless nights. Bu t if you make up your mind you want to sleep on your own God will make a way. Right now I am awake in the night but that’s ok. God wakes me to pray and I’ll be praying for you. 🥰🙏🏻

April 18, 2024 at 6:20 amfamily, Good news! He gave us freedom and free will. Yet, we do nothing on our own authority (John 8:28). He has ascended and filled the universe——Lord, we ask please reveal Yourself to them as well search and speak to their heart. Pray as well for others to acknowledge their freedom, free will and need to Honor Him: 1) Be in fearlessness in their thoughts. 2) Develop discernment in their decisions. 3) Be open to obedience in their actions. Before you have any more thoughts, actions, or decisions about this situation-just ask Him: Does this honor You, Jesus? He will answer. Amen 🙏 Lastly, pray for the spiritual state of Jewish communities facing discrimination or threats will acknowledge Discernment and Obedience where individuals are freed from excessive attachment to worldly desires, possessions, or concerns. It involves a conscious effort to prioritize one’s relationship with God and adherence to religious principles over material or societal influences, affirming His identity as the promised Messiah.
April 18, 2024 at 7:27 amFather, I join in agreement with these prayers. Give a double portion of rest with every sleep and bring Your perfect healing in all areas of need. With thanksgiving I pray in Jesus’ name, Amen
