You’re fine all day. Then the light goes off, your head hits the pillow, and the thought you outran since breakfast is standing right there in the room with you, louder than it ever was at noon.
If fear waits until dark to find you, this episode is for you. We’re talking about how to pray when anxiety gets loud, and especially how to pray at night, when everything feels worse and morning feels a long way off.
We go to a story you already know, Daniel in the lions’ den, but to a person in it most of us read right past. Because there’s someone in Daniel 6 who didn’t sleep a wink that night, and it wasn’t Daniel. It was the king. And his sleepless night might be the most honest picture of two a.m. anxiety in the whole Bible.
You’ll discover:
- Why feeling anxious after you pray is not a sign of weak faith
- What to actually do in the moment when you can’t shut your mind off
- Why fear gets so much louder at night, and what that’s really about
- What King Darius reveals about holding something you cannot control
- The reason you can pray more and worry less even at the worst hour of the night
Whatever you’re holding in the dark tonight, hear this: God is not waiting for sunrise to go to work for you.
