Bible Verses to Stand on For Sleep

Verses to Stand on For Sleep (free printable for praying these verse here!

Sweet dreams, sleeping well. Don’t we all long to sleep deeply?

As a teen girl at 14, I began to pray over my sleep. I was in constant fear. The fear hindered my sleep. I had dabbled in the occult. After giving my life to Jesus, I still had awful nightmares. It took months to get my rest back. (If God did it for me, He will do it for you)!

My sister and I began to recite Psalm 91 nightly before going to bed. I encourage you to memorize Psalm 91. It is a powerful passage for safety.

Other verses I stand on before sleeping are:
Psalm 4:8: “In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, Lord, make me dwell in safety.”

Proverbs 3:24: “When you lie down, you will not be afraid; when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet.”

Psalm 127:2: “In vain you rise early and stay up late, toiling for food to eat— for he grants sleep to those he loves.”

Matthew 11:28: “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.”

I like to say these aloud and pray them before going to bed.

Anytime there is fear, I stand on Psalm 91 before sleeping. Take authority over the devil. Cast him out of your house, your dreams, and your sleep. Welcome the Holy Spirit to minister to you as you sleep (Psalm 77:6).
