Psalm 4:8 — Sleep in the Peace of God’s Presence Live from London, England — where faith meets the world in daily prayer and global hope. Auckland • São Paulo • Johannesburg • Toronto • London Rest • Peace • Security Good evening, and welcome to DailyPrayer.uk. As this Tuesday comes to an end, the quiet of the evening gives us an opportunity to place everything back into God’s loving hands. Some prayers have already been answered today, while others are still unfolding in His perfect timing. Before you close your eyes, remember that the Lord who walked with you throughout this day will also watch over you through the night. Psalm 4:8 “In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, Lord, make me dwell in safety.” Heavenly Father, thank You for Your faithfulness from the first light of this morning until this quiet moment tonight. Thank You for every kindness, every unseen protection and every reminder that You have never left our side. Lord Jesus, we lay before You every burden, every unanswered question and every concern about tomorrow. Replace our anxious thoughts with the assurance of Your presence. Holy Spirit, calm our minds, quiet our hearts and fill us with the deep peace that only You can give. Tonight we choose to rest in Your promises. Where fear tries to linger, remind us that fear will not win, because You remain our refuge, our protector and our constant hope. As we sleep, renew our bodies, refresh our minds and strengthen our faith so that we will rise tomorrow with fresh confidence in Your goodness. We pray for every listener joining us from Auckland, São Paulo, Johannesburg, Toronto, London and across the nations. May every home know Your peace, every family be surrounded by Your love, and every heart rest securely in the everlasting arms of our Lord Jesus Christ. Señor Jesús, danos una noche de descanso y llena nuestro corazón con Tu paz. Quédate con nosotros hasta el amanecer. Amén. Senhor Jesus, guarda-nos durante esta noite. Renova as nossas forças e concede-nos um descanso tranquilo na Tua presença. Amém. Panginoong Jesus, samahan Mo kami ngayong gabi. Bigyan Mo kami ng payapang pagtulog at panibagong lakas para sa bagong araw.

Welcome And Settle In

SPEAKER_00

Welcome to Daily Prayer. I'm Reverend Ben Cooper coming to you live from our studios in London, England. Let's open God's word together and let's pray and stay together. Wherever you are, what sort of a day have you had? Come on, let's lock in. Let's carry one another in the

Psalm 4:8 And A Late Prayer

power of prayer. We're gonna jump straight the way through to the beautiful prayers of David. We're gonna go to Psalms 4, verse 8, and I invite you to stay with me just for these four minutes. I know we're late, it's tired, we're weary, we're exhausted. The rhythm of life, work, culture, family. We are tired, we are exhausted. But let's just take a moment to breathe and to pause. This is the title of our late night prayer together. Sleep in the peace of God's presence. Father, that's enough for me tonight. I need to rest, I need to sleep in God's presence.

When The World Feels Noisy

SPEAKER_00

But Holy Spirit, the world is so noisy. Lord, the activities of today are still in my head. Lord, we've left work. Lord, we're back home wherever we may be, in the gym, cutting the grass, whatever we are doing across the time zone of the world. Holy Spirit, as we come to you live from London, England, at this late night hour. Father, we're sitting on the sofa. Lord, we're sitting on the stall. We're at the breakfast bar. Lord, with our head in our hands. Lord, we're tired, we are weary, we're trying to make a tea and a coffee. Lord, our brains are all over the place. And Lord, we just can't rest. Holy Spirit, help us to rest.

Rest Peace And Security Tonight

SPEAKER_00

So Lord, we pray for these three areas of our lives. Lord, we need to rest. We need more peace. And Lord, we need to feel that security because the world feels very volatile at this moment. The world, the money markets, the political cry, the war cry, family, friends, relationships, the situations at work. Life feels very, very delicate, Lord, at this moment in time. And Lord, we don't want to feel the delicateness of the world. We want to feel the love of Jesus Christ. We don't want to live our lives by worry and fear. Lord, we stretch out from this studio, live in London, England, and we call on the greatest name. And we call on the God Jehovah Jirah. And we call on the name which is above every other name. We call on the name of Jesus.

Close Today And Declutter The Mind

SPEAKER_00

Lord, I pray for those hearts that are really tired. I pray for those minds that are absolutely exhausted. I pray for everyone that is just weary. Lord, I believe you're calling us tonight. I believe, Lord God, that you want to take this anxiety, you want to take this fear, this exhaustion, this fatigue, the weariness of life, Spirit of the Living God, Lord, as we connect around the world at this late hour, live from London, England, all the way to Auckland, St. Paolo, Johannesburg, Toronto, all the way to Mexico City, Panama, Lord, we are praying for revival. Lord, revive our spirit, revive our heart. And Lord, I thank you, Lord, that you are with us and nothing can separate us from your love. And dear God, nothing in this world, no spiritual activity, no fear, no doubt, no

worry, nothing can separate us from the vine, because we are grafted into the power of the Holy Spirit. But right now, Lord, I pray for those that feel really vulnerable, those that feel really scared, those that are so tired they can't even sleep. Father, from the battles to the boardrooms, Father, as we dance our way through life, we crawl our way through life, Lord, as we climb the rock face of life, Holy Spirit, whatever our life is reflecting, we believe that your timing is perfect. And Lord, I pray that you will help us to rest in the name of Jesus. And whatever we are going through, Lord, bring stability, bring stillness, and that security. Lord, we've got to rest. And Father, as we pray right now, Lord, as the curtains on today come to a close, Lord, help us to close the laptop on today. Holy Spirit, Lord, I pray that you will help us to declutter our mind because our mind, dear God, is like a firework display. Father, there are fireworks exploding. We are trying to sleep. We are trying to calm down. But Lord, I pray that you will carry the burdens, the fears, the doubts, all those conversations we've had, all the anxieties, all that stuff that is just rumbling around in our thought pattern right now. Lord, we are so tired. We are overtired. We are weary. And I pray for those that struggle to sleep that their sleep will be sweet. So wherever we are at this hour, we thank you that the Spirit of the Lord is over our lives. Lord, as we sleep tonight, renew this energy, refresh our minds, strengthen our faith, and as we rise in the morning, we're going to rise with fresh confidence. And Lord, your goodness is going to be before us. So Lord, from all the battles, from all the trials, from all the fears, from all the discouragements, Lord, help us to let go and to let God. So Lord, let peace just rain down on our hearts tonight. May the Spirit of the Lord carry you through whatever your journey may look like. Don't ever give up. Keep praying. Keep believing. Keep pressing in the power of prayer. And will you continue this journey with me through dailyprayer.uk and let's discover more hidden treasures inspired by the beautiful book of Isaiah 45, verse 3. Let's explore that growing back library, the companion prayers, the biblical encouragements. But more than anything else, let's continue to walk with Jesus Christ every day, wherever you are. Don't ever give up. Have a beautiful sleep in the name of Jesus Christ. But will you join me for the first prayer of dawn tomorrow morning? Good night and God bless. And don't ever give up.
