After a long day, we want to get home to rest and leave all our worries behind. Therefore, it is necessary to say a powerful prayer of protection to God for the night , so that He may allow you to sleep in peace and rest with confidence.
Protection prayer for the night
Jesus Christ, the son of God, inherited for us the most valuable and essential thing that is prayer in the life of the Christian. He allows us to be in constant communion with God at any time of the day and in the various events that may occur to us. He taught us to give thanks for everything, ask for our weaknesses, as well as to forgive our sins committed.
Saying a protection prayer for the night is very necessary, especially to put ourselves in the hands of God and thank him for the day that ends, asking for a restful sleep and imploring for the replenishment of our strength and the protection of the home. Below is this sentence.
Beloved Father, at this time I place myself in your presence to honor you and thank you for your blessings.
In this hour I cry because you wash me with your Powerful Blood
Because you impose your holy armor on me
cover me with your blood
Send me warrior angels, guardians and custodians around me to rest under your protection.
Give me a deep and restful sleep. In you I trust and hope.
In the name of Jesus.
In the Holy Scriptures, specifically in the Gospel of Matthew, it expresses the correct way to pray:
Mattheww 7:7-8
5 And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full.
6 But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.
7 And when you pray, do not use meaningless repetitions as the Gentiles do, for they think that they will be heard for their many words.
The prayer of protection for the night is to invite Jesus to be in communion with Him or on the contrary to go with the person for whom you want to pray.
It is done at night so that Jesus can heal the unconscious, the place where the roots of emotional problems are. At the moment of praying, you concentrate on leaving your emotions, your heart, your mind, to Jesus and thus heal you through forgiveness and blessing.
In the Holy Scriptures, specifically in the Gospel of Saint Matthew 26:41, it tells us:
“Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak . ”
The Lord manifested this to his Disciples on Mount Gethsemane, inviting them to accompany him in his agony and suffering. The Word of God says:
Pedro 1 5: 7
“Leave all your worries to God because He cares about you”
The prayer of protection for the night can serve the mother. If you are worried about a rebellious child. A wife, who suffers with an unfaithful or frustrated husband. To a husband who has his wife in trouble. In short, it can do a lot of good to someone you love but who is not close to God. To someone who does not accept prayer. Many people can be helped to seek God and receive all his promises and heal their lives.
Salmo 18: 6
In my anguish I called on the Lord;
I cried out to my God, and he heard me from his temple;
my cry reached their ears!
How to prepare for this Night Prayer?
In principle, you must have a strong communion with Jesus, you must recognize him as the owner of your life, as well as learn from his Word and pray every day. In short, to have a life in the presence of God.
Before helping the rest of the people like yourself, you must keep yourself in complete prayer so that the Lord will train you, guide you and show you where the problem is and thus be able to obtain the discernment to know why and how to pray.
You need to learn to pray as appropriate, with the guidance of the Holy Spirit and place yourself in the presence of the Lord to hear him.
Acts 16:25
But at midnight, Paul and Silas praying, they sang hymns to God; and the prisoners heard them.
At bedtime we must invoke the Holy Spirit, sleep in praises in the presence of God and ask him to wake us up to pray. and then when we wake up we should look for a place in the house where we can be in prayer without interruptions invoking the Holy Spirit.
Take a short time to praise the Lord. Then cover yourself with the precious blood of Jesus and ask him to keep you from all evil. Also ask Him to be the one to come and help you pray this prayer.
Acts 1:14
All, in the same spirit, dedicated themselves to prayer, together with the women and with the brothers of Jesus and his mother Mary.
How is the prayer done?
Prayer is made as God inspires you, imagine that Jesus is with you. Use your imagination. And with your eyes closed, but with those of the spirit open, imagine that Christ takes you by the hand.
Jesus always knows the problem, whether it is a need or a weakness, what you have to do is trust Jesus Christ who goes with you. Jesus is going to do something wonderful, something special.
Salmo 18: 6
In my anguish I called on the Lord;
I cried out to my God, and he heard me from his temple;
my cry reached their ears!
The first thing He will do is accept you, because He wants to have a moment of deep heart-to-heart relationship. When Christ approaches someone it is to give him his love, transcendent things happen that heal him and change his life for the better. Almost all of us have a very great need for love, even if our parents and relatives have been the best in the world.
And that loneliness, that emptiness manifest as bitterness, frustration or aggressiveness. Hence, we need to experience that we are loved by Jesus and in this way we will be healed of that wound of lack of love. In the Holy Scriptures, the following verse shows us:
Psalms 145: 18-19
The LORD is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth. He will fulfill the desire of those who fear him, he will also hear their cry and save them.
The love of Jesus is what heals
The love of Our God means much more than feelings, it is a total dedication, great dedication and of course forgiveness, among others. For this reason, God gave his only son to save us. In moments of prayer, even if the person is asleep, Jesus will be healing them from his concerns, from that loneliness, from the emptiness, from the bitterness that the various experiences have left them. In the end Christ will heal him.
Luke 11: 9-13
And I say to you: Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it will be opened to you. Because everyone who asks, receives; and he who seeks, finds; and to him who knocks, it will be opened. Or suppose that one of you who is a father, his son asks him for bread; Will he give you a stone? Or if he {asks for} a fish; Will he give him a snake instead of the fish? Or if he asks for an egg; Will he give him a scorpion? So if you, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will {your} heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him?
Freedom in the Spirit and perseverance in prayer
When the Holy Spirit and Jesus inspire you to pray in another way, let yourself go, since each situation is different and there is no better guide than that. When making the prayers you must be constant, one of the characteristics of the night prayer is that it must be done night after night, if you fail one or you forget, you continue to the next one. It is not necessary to repeat the same thing, let the Lord guide you, but if the request must be for the same problem.
In the same way we must let the Spirit be the one who directs the prayer that is being made and then presents it to the Father in the powerful name of Jesus. The prayer should focus on being pleasant, free and have a sense of exchange, which in the end allows us to notice that we are in the presence of the Lord speaking to God.
Romanos 8: 26-27
And in the same way, the Spirit also helps us in our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit himself intercedes {for us} with groans unspeakable; and he who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He intercedes for the saints according to {the will of} God.
very effective prayer
For Jesus Christ there is no distance, space or time, He can be at any time in the world, there is no past or future. Therefore, in the different stages of life that a person goes through, He can appear, even transform it by this presence, change negative experiences for positive ones and it is not fantasy or imagination, it is simply a reality.
In the same way, when Jesus comes into the life of a person, his conscious or unconscious, he is impregnated with the presence of Jesus and at that very moment he is healed, because Jesus is all good, he is peace, love, light, life. , joy, health. When we pray we must have faith, knowing that Jesus changes everything, can do everything, transforms everything.
As a recommendation, the first thing we must do is consecrate our lives to Jesus, and make him the Lord of your life and the only owner of your being. One must renounce the world of Satan, sin, sadness, in short, everything that is not God.
Philippians 4:6-7
Don't worry about anything; rather, on every occasion, with prayer and supplication, present your petitions to God and give thanks. And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
We must seek God every day, pray with Him, read the Holy Scriptures, and live a life filled with Jesus. You can say this prayer at night for those you love and help them transform their lives.
