Prayer Against Nightmares

Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the Living God, I come before You with a troubled heart. I have been plagued by nightmares and disturbing dreams, and I ask for Your deliverance and protection. In Your holy name, Lord, drive out every evil spirit that would trouble or influence my dreams, and let no power of the enemy have any hold over my sleep. I belong to Jesus Christ, and He is Lord over my conscious and unconscious mind. I renounce every open door that may have allowed the enemy access to my dreams: • Any media I have consumed that opened a door to darkness • Any unconfessed sin that gives the enemy a legal right • Any unforgiveness in my heart • Any fear that I have entertained Lord, I ask You to: • Heal my imagination and cleanse my memory • Remove every image the enemy has planted in my mind • Replace every nightmare with visions of Your peace and love • Station Your angels around my bed to guard my sleep • Fill my subconscious with Your truth and Your Word I rest in the promise of the psalmist — that in peace I will lie down and sleep, for the Lord alone makes me dwell in safety. Holy Spirit, take control of my dream life. Let me dream dreams from You — dreams of hope, of comfort, and of Your plans for my future. Precious Blood of Jesus, cover my mind as I sleep. Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place my trust in You. Amen.
