dreams are definitely Satan-inspired and will leave a God-
fearing person feeling dirty or discouraged. Check your thought 
life.
Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, what-
ever things are noble, whatever things are just, 
whatever things are pure, whatever things are 
lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there 
is any virtue and if there is anything praisewor-
thy… meditate on these things (Philippians 4:8). 
Meditate within your heart on your bed, and be 
still. Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put 
your trust in the Lord…I will both lie down in 
peace, and sleep; for You alone, O Lord, make me 
dwell in safety (Psalm 4:4,5,8). 
When you lie down, you will not be afraid; yes, 
you will lie down and your sleep will be sweet 
(Proverbs 3:24). 
The Lord is our Comforter, Peace Giver, Strong 
Tower, Refuge, Beloved, Advocate, Deliverer, Good Shepherd, 
Great Physician, Redeemer, Savior, Wisdom, Light, Life and 
the Mighty One of Israel. Let us be comforted and encouraged 
by thinking of His names and the power in those names. As we 
worship Him before falling asleep, our sleep shall be sweet. 
Sleep Apnea 
In the last few years, I have heard about a phenomenon 
called “sleep apnea.” It’s a condition in which there is a mal-
function in the brain in which the normal breathing signals to 
the respiratory system are faulty. A person will not breathe 
properly but wakes up gasping for breath. The remedy is to be

hooked up to a machine, which regulates the breathing process. 
We are all susceptible to sickness and malfunction in our bod-
ies. We know the enemy of our souls will try to change any 
normal function in our bodies in order to keep us from obeying 
God and fulfilling our destiny.
God wants to give to us in our sleep. He wants to give 
us a peaceful sleep as a result of spending our energies to ad-
vance His kingdom. If our sleep is not peaceful and we do not 
receive the normal average of seven or eight hours of sleep a 
night, our lives will be adversely affected. 
Following are some Scriptures, which will help renew 
one’s mind if this condition of “sleep apnea” has affected you. 
 
I cried to the Lord with my voice, and He heard me 
from His holy hill. I lay down and slept, I awoke, 
for the Lord sustained me (Ps. 3:4,5). 
 
It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to 
eat the bread of sorrows for so He gives His be-
loved sleep (Ps. 127:2). 
 
The sleep of a laboring man is sweet, whether he 
eats little or much; but the abundance of the rich 
will not permit him to sleep (Ecc. 5:12). 
 
My son, let them (wisdom, understanding and 
knowledge) not depart from your eyes, keep sound 
wisdom and discretion; so they will be life to your 
soul and grace to your neck. Then you will walk 
safely in your way, and your foot will not stumble.
