SWEET SLEEP WITH JESUS | Exhaustion, Sleep Deprivation, Night Prayer Christian, Relax, Sleep Meditation

Is your mind racing the moment your head hits the pillow? Are you exhausted but terrified you won’t have the energy to function tomorrow? Do you ever wonder why everyone else seems to rest easily but you can’t? Are you afraid this cycle of anxious thoughts and mental chaos will never end?

If you whispered ‘yes’ to any of that, you’re in the right place.

This podcast will help you calm your racing thoughts, step into spiritual authority, and find deep, consistent sleep so you can rest fully and sleep with confidence again.

Hey! I’m Emem, your future friend and a passionate Jesus lover. About fifteen years ago, I went through the most tormenting season of my life — I could not sleep.

Night after night my mind raced. I was anxious and terrified. Nothing I tried worked — not teas, not medicine, not routines, not forcing myself to ‘just relax.’ I felt helpless, hopeless, exhausted, and honestly… I felt like I was going crazy.

Through the help of the Holy Spirit, I finally realized that peace had already been given to me — and the enemy had stolen it.

I learned how to stand in my spiritual authority and take my peace back. With the truth of God’s Word and the authority He gave me, I went from hopeless, afraid, and mentally exhausted to restored in peace, anchored in joy, renewed in my mind, and sleeping sweetly.

Pajamas on, lights low, worries off — welcome to sweet sleep with Jesus.

As our sister Tamia said: "I choose me".
At some point, you have to realize the power of choosing YOU.
Let this episode encourage you to finally say YES to what God has for you and NO to everything that is pulling you down.

Everyone has opinions. One person says you should do this, the other says you should do that. And if you are getting your advice from social media, I KNOW you are confused.

Everybody is talking about Rona and you KNOW I had to join the conversation.
No, but really, I get it. This is some other worldly stuff we are dealing with and if we don’t have the right perspective, it can be damaging to our well-being. So if you are in need of some encouragement through this crisis, I pray this came at just the right time. I pray it uplifts, brings hope, and strength. ♥
