As humans, we all have that one particular target or even more in which we fight to archive each day. But despite how we try and toil the day, we might end up not archiving that we actually want till nightfall. That’s normal because we can’t see the future or it’s outcome, but in all, we should never stop praying to God to perfect our days. Even these daily adventures can sometimes be overwhelming and challenging that we wish for the day to pass, but we should never forget to say our night prayers. So in this article, we will be sharing 8 powerful evening prayers to end your day.
While we sleep, we can’t know what’s happening around us, or even where we go when we sleep. Some may say we go to dreamland in our subconscious mind, but we can’t actually hold on to any fact about that. So this is why we need to constantly pray to God each night before we go to bed, thanking him for the day’s activities weather good or bad, while also praying for better day at dawn.

Importance of Evening Prayers;
The importance of evening prayers cannot be overemphasized, weather it’s before bed time or it’s before closure from work. As a true Christian, you should make prayer a necessity in your household, because there’s a popular saying that entails that “any family that prays together stays together”. Night prayers can help you sleep with so much assurance that God is with you and his angels is protecting you. Now while at work, you should always say a prayer before closure, even if it’s the shortest of them all. Those short prayers before leaving the office can help see you through to your abode.
Praying in general helps to strengthen the bond between God and us, and this is actually the fastest way to connect with his divine presence. Every true believer’s first stress response is to pray. The Bible also clarified it in it’s scriptures; Romans 10:9 which says “If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved”. So one thing you should know is that God never fails his own and anyone who trusts him.

Our Father, who art in heaven,
Hallowed be thy name;
Thy kingdom come;
Thy will be done;
On Earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
As we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation;
But deliver us from evil.

The power and the glory,
For ever and ever.

A Prayer For Nighttime Blessing
Lord,
You bless us as we rest
Restore us as we sleep
You care for us as we drift off
And make our dreaming sweet.
You are the safest place
You are the God of Grace
Forgiven, loved and held by you
Is each small seed of faith.
You know our thoughts and feelings
You see our deep desires
You understand our weariness
And catch each tear we cry.
You walk beside us every day
You are a constant friend
You stay with us all through the night
On you we can depend

A Prayer For Gratitude
Heavenly Father, my day is drawing to an end, and I’m ready to turn in. But before I do, I have to thank you for your faithfulness today. It’s always a good day, even when things may not go the way I plan, or when the world seems in chaos because you are in control. For all the times when I was aware of your help today, all the times when your unseen presence seemed so near, thank you, God. But for all the ways you worked behind the scenes, unknown to me, moments when heaven-sent angels moved on my behalf in ways I’ll never know, thank you for those also, Lord. Amen.

A Prayer For Restoring Your Relationship With God
Dear Father,
I admit that I often forget that you are with me. I often forget what you’re like. Would you please forgive me for that? I need to get to know you better. I need to get to know your Word and your promises better. Help me to put you first in every area of my life. Help me to live one day at a time. Help me to not worry about tomorrow but instead focus on what you’re doing in my life right now. I want to trust in your promise to take care of every one of my needs—financial, relational, physical, social, spiritual, and emotional. Help me trust you more and worry less. I pray in Jesus’ name, Amen.
