In Jesus' name I pray, Amen. Thank you for praying with me. I'm Bishop T.D. Jakes inviting you to unwind your mind and spirit with tonight's sleep song.

2:08This is an I Heart Podcast, Guaranteed Human. Thank you for joining me, Bishop T.D. Jakes for tonight's episode of the Sleep Songs Podcast. If this episode blessed you, follow the podcast so you never miss a nightly encouragement. Hello, I'm Grace. For tonight's sleep song by Bray.com, we will be meditating on Psalm 110. Take a deep cleansing breath, allow the oxygen-rich air to fill your lungs, hold your breath for a few seconds, exhale slowly, feeling the oxygen flow freely through your veins, strengthening
3:09your body. Take another deep breath. As you exhale, release the tension in your muscles and relax your neck and shoulders. With your next breath, focus on clearing your mind of any distractions. When you exhale, let go of any anxious thoughts from today, surrender your worries and doubts to the Lord. Know you are safe in his sovereign hands. Close your eyes and focus your thoughts on Jesus. Think about his love and strength displayed in his sacrifice. Think about his power and sovereignty that will be on display in the final battle. Be thankful for his sacrifice and be comforted by his future reign when there will be no pain and suffering for those who love and seek him.
4:12Tonight's song gives us a glimpse into the power and authority of Jesus and into a future when he will judge and rule over the nations. As you listen to God's Word, find hope in the future that is secure in Jesus. Psalm 110 from the King James Version says, The Lord said unto my Lord, sit thou at my right hand until I make thine enemies thy footstool. The Lord shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion, rule thou in the midst of thine enemies, thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning, thou hast the dew of thy youth. The Lord hath sworn and will not repent, thou art a priest forever after the order of milk his adec. The Lord at thy right hand shall strike through the kings in the day of his wrath. He shall judge among the heathen.
5:14He shall fill the places with the dead bodies. He shall wound the heads over many countries. He shall drink of the brook in the way, therefore shall he lift up the head. Meditate on the holy splendor of the Lord, visualize him ruling in his glory and power. See his light pervading every dark corner, revealing truth for all eyes to see. Picture him with his mighty scepter, ruling over all the nations and fighting to bring his truth and justice to the world. Take delight in his sovereignty. Allow his hope to fill you with his joy and peace tonight. Take a deep breath. Once your chest rises, lift your spirit to celebrate the victory of the Lord. Exhale slowly and allow his praise to warm your heart and soothe your soul.
6:17Know there is nothing to fear. For our Lord will triumph over the evil and darkness in our world. With your next exhale, surrender all your fears to the Lord and feel his presence comfort you and calm your anxiety. Think of any doubts you have of Jesus and who he claimed to be. Take a deep breath and lift these doubts to God. Ask for his help to answer your questions and to understand who he really is. Exhale slowly and allow his truth to fill your mind and body and to lighten your heart. Breathe in and out slowly. With your next exhale, release any guilt and shame you may be carrying with you because of your doubts. Know the Lord is strong enough to handle your doubts and his love never fails you.
7:20Rejoice in the powerful name of Jesus. Exalt the Lord our God. Take him for his salvation in which you are safe and secure. Thank him for choosing you to do his good works in this world. Think of a person who has not accepted Jesus as their Savior. Pray God will open their heart and reveal his truth. Pray they will encounter Jesus and accept his gift of salvation. Lift your requests to the sovereign Lord. Know in his power and strength he can provide for you and protect you every day and night. Pull your trust in him. Pray for courage to share the good news with others. Pray God will give you the words to say when you tell others about Jesus. Pray for strength to stand firm in your faith, especially during times of persecution.
8:24Pray God will give you discernment as you navigate our culture. Pray for peace as you sleep. Pray God will comfort you with his word and with the bright future you have with the king of kings. Take a deep breath. Allow his peace to wash over you. Exhale slowly and release any stress and tension that is still lingering from today. Breathe in and out slowly. With each exhale, focus on relaxing a different part of the body until your muscles and joints soften from your head to your toes. Raise your body, relaxes and your mind calms. Rest in God's presence and allow him to refresh your mind, body and soul as you sleep peacefully throughout the night.
