Your Nightly Prayer 🙏🏾 Psalm 122:1

I was glad when they said to me, 'Let’s go to the Lord’s house!'”
PSALM 122:1

DEVOTION
Based on Psalm 122
Tonight’s psalm celebrates the joy of gathering in the presence of the Lord. Being in His house represents fellowship, worship, and the peace that comes from drawing near to Him. This gladness is not just about a physical place but about the joy of communion with God and His people.

Take a moment to reflect on the privilege of being in God’s presence. Breathe out the weariness of the day, and breathe in the gladness of worship. Let your heart overflow with gratitude for the invitation to draw near to Him, rejoicing in the fellowship of His Spirit.

THANKSGIVING: Thank God for the joy of fellowship with Him and His people. Express gratitude for the moments of peace, renewal, and celebration that come from being in His presence.

PRAYER
“I was glad when they said to me, 'Let’s go to the Lord’s house!'”
PSALM 122:1
Dear Lord, tonight, as I lay my head down and seek peace, I pray that Your perfect love would cast out all fear. Free me from anxiety, and hold my thoughts captive. Hedge me in and build walls of protection around my mind like the ramparts of Jerusalem. My thoughts wander and stray away from You. Memories of mistakes and missed opportunities replay themselves in my mind’s eye, seeking to shame me and rob me of my sleep. Be my protector and bring my lost consciousness back into Your comforting embrace. There is peace within Your walls, Lord Jesus, and I can genuinely repose in Your presence. Deliver me tonight from intrusive thoughts and usher me into blissful sleep. In Jesus’ name, I pray, Amen.🙏🏾
