Your Nightly Prayer

Calming Our Anxious Thoughts


Listen Later

Anxiety can steal our peace and even our sleep, but Philippians 4:6 reminds us that God invites us to bring every concern—big or small—to Him. In tonight's evening prayer, Jennifer Slattery, host of the Faith Over Fear show, shares that when fear floods our hearts, we can fix our minds on truth: the Lord is near, He is our refuge, and He will never abandon us.

Gratitude is one of the most powerful tools we have against worry. When we thank God for His past faithfulness, we shift our focus from the size of our problems to the strength of our God. The same God who has been your help in the past will continue to protect, provide, and guide you in the future.

📖 Tonight’s Scripture: Philippians 4:6 (NIV)

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God."

🙏 Your Nightly Prayer

Father,
Thank You for watching over me and providing for me in every season. You see my concerns and understand the weight of my heart. Quiet my anxious thoughts and help me to rest in Your presence tonight. Fill me with Your truth, and remind me that Your plans for me are good, Your power is unmatched, and Your love never fails.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.

🧘 Three Things to Meditate Upon

  1. You are never alone—your Savior is with you now and always.

  2. God’s faithfulness is unchanging and dependable.

  3. The One who formed the universe is more than able to care for your life and the lives of those you love.
