Saturated with Blessings
My precious child, it’s useless for you to work so hard from early morning until late at night, anxiously working for food to eat; for I give rest to My beloved ones. (Ecclesiastes 5:12) Refreshing deep sleep is a blessing that goes with a good day’s work. Why is it so essential to get a good night’s sleep? When you close your eyes and fall asleep, your brain can attend to other issues within the body. If there are areas that need to heal, the brain can trigger the release of hormones that encourage tissue growth to repair blood vessels. This helps wounds to heal faster but also restores sore or damaged muscles.
Sleep promotes the healing process and gives your body a break because there are fewer demands on the heart, causing your blood pressure to drop. It gives your body an energy boost and aids in having a positive attitude. When you sleep, the level of the hormones that make you feel hungry or full fluctuates. If you don’t get enough sleep, your hunger hormone levels known as ghrelin go up, and your full hormones or leptin go down. So poor sleep patterns can lead to overeating and eventual obesity. It is best to let your body keep everything in proper alignment with a good night’s rest.
Sleep is crucial to being healthy – I created your body to heal and restore itself while you sleep. In addition to Me giving you a good night’s sleep – I give to you when you sleep. (Hebrews 4:9-11) Here are just a few blessings I give you when you sleep:
1. I give you instruction (Psalm 16:7 NLT)
2. I give you songs in the night (Psalm 42:8)
3. I test your thoughts and examine your heart (Psalm 17:3)
4. I give you guardian protection (Proverbs 6:22)
5. I give you visions and dreams (Job 33:15)
6. I whisper warnings in your ear (Job 33:16
7. I speak to you (Genesis 46:2)
8. You meditate on My Word in your sleep (Joshua 1:8)
9. I visit you while you sleep, divine appearance (2 Chronicles 7:12)
10. Give you knowledge as you sleep (Psalm 19:2)
Not only do I load you up daily with benefits, but I load you up at night while you are sleeping with benefits because I love you, and you are Mine! (Psalms 68:19) I knit you together so perfectly in your mother’s womb that your body requires rest at night. Your body heals and restores itself at night while you are sleeping. (Proverbs 3:24) Nothing prevents Me from giving you love, joy, blessings, strength, and My presence while you sleep. I give you to sleep, and I load you up with blessings while you sleep! If you need healing in your body, take the time to rest and trust Me to provide for you blessings heaped upon blessings! I look for people daily that I can saturate with blessings, so it might as well be you!
Declare this with me:
I declare and decree God is looking for me today to saturate me with blessings heaped upon blessings in the all-powerful name of Jesus Christ the Messiah. Amen!
