A Prayer Against Nightmares and Bad Dreams

Quote: When we build a weave of light together as one, 
all darkness is commanded out of our lives forever. Amen 

Eternal God, I know that we do not wrestle against flesh and blood
but with principalities and powers coming from the rulers of the dark side.   
This spiritual wickedness is an insipid outcome of a gray world that slithers from an unseen force of evil...
Bad dreams are acts of spiritual attacks on our delicate souls,   
so Father we pray against the plans of the enemy to try and scare us.  
It is only a ploy to keep us frozen in fear and self doubt.  

I pray for peace as I sleep, for I do not stand on my own authority but yours. 
Lord, be our light and place your Holy mantle on my heart 
Shelter me from all harm and keep my mind in the Sanctuary of 
your stronghold and Sacred Home.  Yes I am yours and yours alone. 
Dear God, when you are with me who can be against me.  
Let me sleep like a lamb in your arms like a sheep too busy 
following staff and light, to ever get caught in the web of Satan's
hallucinatory lies  and corruptions,   Amen  !
