Welcome back to Sleepy Scriptures. In this episode, I’ll read the Old Testament books of Habakkuk, Zephaniah, and Haggai from the King James Bible.
In Habakkuk, we hear the prophet’s cry for justice and his declaration of unwavering faith: “Yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation” (Habakkuk 3:18).
Zephaniah brings both warning and hope, proclaiming the coming day of the Lord, but also God’s promise: “The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy” (Zephaniah 3:17).
Finally, in Haggai, the Lord encourages His people to rebuild His house, assuring them: “The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former” (Haggai 2:9).
Accompanied by gentle, relaxing music, these prophetic words invite you to reflect, find comfort, and drift peacefully into rest.

In this Sleepy Scriptures episode, we begin our bedtime journey through the Gospel of Luke with chapters 1 through 6 from the King James Bible, accompanied by gentle background music to calm your heart and mind.

These opening chapters unfold the angel Gabriel’s announcements to Zechariah and to Mary, followed by Mary’s hymn of praise, the Magnificat. We then hear the beloved story of the birth of Jesus Christ, including the angels’ proclamation to the shepherds: “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men” (Luke 2:14).

As the Gospel continues, we witness John the Baptist’s ministry, the baptism of Jesus, and the beginning of His ministry of teaching and healing. In chapter 6, Jesusdelivers the Sermon on the Plain, where He offers the timeless wisdom of the Golden Rule: “As ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise” (Luke 6:31).

From the joy of Bethlehem to the call to love and mercy, these chapters invite you to rest in the presence of God’s Word. Let the beauty of the King James Bible, paired with soothing music, help you find peace as you drift into sleep.

Today on Sleepy Scriptures, I complete the Gospel of Mark with readings from chapters 8 through 16 of the King James Bible, accompanied by gentle, soothing music to help you find peace and rest.
In these final chapters, Mark records pivotal moments in the life of Christ. We hear Peter’s confession that Jesus is the Christ, the breathtaking Transfiguration, and the Lord’s teachings on faith, humility, and discipleship.
As we journey on, the story leads us into Jerusalem, where Jesus shares the Last Supper, prays in Gethsemane, and is betrayed, tried, and crucified. Mark’s Gospel concludes with the triumphant message of the resurrection of Christ, offering eternal hope and comfort for all who believe.
Whether you come seeking Scripture for sleep, relaxation, or spiritual nourishment, let the timeless words of the King James Bible and the gentle background music of Sleepy Scriptures bring calm to your evening.

Welcome to Sleepy Scriptures. Tonight, I’ll read the Old Testament books of Obadiah, Jonah, and Micah from the King James Bible, with gentle, relaxing music in the background to help you find calm and rest.

In Obadiah, the shortest Old Testament book, we hear a message of God’s justice against pride and betrayal. The story of Jonah follows, reminding us of God’s boundless mercy as the reluctant prophet learns that even the great city of Nineveh can repent and be forgiven. We conclude with the prophecy of Micah, who calls God’s people to righteousness, hope, and humility, declaring the famous words: “What doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?”

Whether you’re winding down for the night, seeking a moment of peace, or simply wish to soak in the timeless words of Scripture, let these powerful passages from the King James Bible guide you gently into restful sleep.

In this Sleepy Scriptures episode, we begin the Gospel of Mark with chapters 1 through 7 from the King James Bible, accompanied by gentle background music to ease your mind and bring you peace.

Mark’s account opens with John the Baptist preparing the way, followed by the baptism of Jesus and the beginning of His ministry. These chapters highlight Jesus’ early miracles — healing the sick, casting out demons, and cleansing the leper.

In chapter 4, we hear the parable of the sower and witness Jesus’ power as He calms the storm with the words, “Peace, be still.” Mark also recounts the dramatic healing of the demon-possessed man, the raising of Jairus’ daughter, and the woman healed by touching the hem of His garment.

Chapter 6 brings the familiar story of the feeding of the five thousand, a reminder of Christ’s abundant provision.

From miracles of healing to parables of truth, Mark’s Gospel introduces us to the authority and compassion of Jesus Christ. Let the timeless words of the King James Bible, set to soothing music, guide you into rest and sleep tonight.

God Bless.

In this Sleepy Scriptures episode, we complete our journey through the Gospel of Matthew with a bedtime reading of chapters 24 through 28 from the King James Bible, accompanied by soothing background music.
These final chapters contain some of the most profound words and events in Scripture. In Matthew 24, Jesus delivers the Olivet Discourse, speaking of the end of the age and assuring us that “Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away” (Matthew 24:35).
We then come to the Last Supper, where Jesus shares bread and wine with His disciples, followed by His prayer in Gethsemane and His betrayal and arrest. In Matthew 27, we walk with Him through the trial, the cross, and His sacrifice for us. And in Matthew 28, we hear the words that changed history: “He is not here: for he is risen, as he said” (Matthew 28:6).
Together, these chapters move from prophecy to promise, from sorrow to triumph, and from death to resurrection hope. Let the timeless beauty of the King James Bible and the gentle music help you find rest as you reflect on the words and works of Christ.

Joel’s prophecy speaks of the Day of the Lord and the outpouring of God’s Spirit: “And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh…”(Joel 2:28). His words call for repentance while offering hope and renewal.

Amos, the shepherd-prophet, delivers a message of justice and righteousness, reminding us of God’s heart for truth and mercy: “But let judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream” (Amos 5:24).

Together, these books offer a powerful blend of warning, hope, and restoration — timeless words that still bring comfort today. As you listen, let the peaceful cadence of scripture carry you gently toward rest, while your heart is stilled in God’s Word.
