Philippians 4:6 — Evening Prayer for Rest, Renewal, and Deep Peace

8 P.M. Release — Recorded live here in London, England — from London to Singapore, from Singapore to Cape Town, from Cape Town to Los Angeles — as evening falls across the world, God invites His people into stillness and trust.

Scripture (NIV)

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.” — Philippians 4:6 (NIV)

Show Notes

Evening brings reflection — and for many, restlessness. “Prayer for peace and rest” is among the most-searched faith requests globally, revealing a generation weighed down by worry. Yet Philippians 4:6 reminds us that peace is not the absence of problems but the presence of God in the middle of them.

From London to Singapore, Cape Town to Los Angeles, people long for deep rest — not just sleep, but soul-level renewal. When we turn anxiety into prayer and gratitude into worship, the weight lifts and His calm returns. The God who calmed storms still calms hearts tonight.

At this hour, we pray for minds to quiet, families to reconnect, and weary spirits to breathe again. In surrender, there is peace; in thanksgiving, there is rest; in Christ, there is renewal.

The evening prayer, the morning prayer, the midday prayer, wherever we are, we're praying for rest, renewal, and a deeper peace. Do you need a deeper peace? Do you need renewal? And do you need prayer for rest? You've come to the right place. Thank you for sharing this, pushing this out wherever you are. Come on, let's get in the book of Philippians 4, verse 6 from the NIV. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, present your request to God. Lord, we're in trouble. And we need you because we're anxious and we're scared and we're worried. And in every situation, God, we're not quite sure. We need you today. We really need you, dear God, for peace. The prayer for peace and rest is up the top scowl of the list. And Father, I don't know if you're looking, but we are in a global crisis. Lord, I don't know if you see my heart, but I'm scared. I don't know, Lord, if you see our minds, but we are in trouble, God. And Lord, we know that you are omnipresent, omnipotent. We know that you're all in all things. We know that you're on the battlefield to the boardroom. From the boardroom to the train, from the train to the bus, from the bus to the car, from the car to the van. Lord, from cutting the grass to walking the dogs, dear God, whatever we may be doing in the name of Jesus, we need you. Father, you've got to pour out your spirit over our lives because we're weary and we're tired. And Lord, sometimes it's difficult to get this word in our spirit. So Lord, will you teach us to pray? Will you teach us, dear God? We need the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit. We need you in every situation. We need you practically. We need you to be our Father in heaven. Lord, we know that you are in heaven, but we need this Father now in our lives because, Lord, as we reflect, for many of us, we are restless. The prayer for peace is right at the top of the agenda. Lord, we ask you now that you will clear the decks of our lives. And Lord, that you will sweep through us from Singapore to Cape Town, from Cape Town to Los Angeles, wherever we are in the Americas, Spirit of the Living God, right the way, dear God, through Israel. Father, calm now, Lord. Father, we pray right now for the Belaric Islands that you will bless them from the crown of their head to the sole of their feet. But at this hour, we need prayer for our minds to be quiet, families to reconnect, weary spirits to breathe again. Help us to breathe, Lord. Help us to stand, help us to push up and to rise in the name of Jesus. So in thanksgiving, thank you, Father, that there is rest in Christ Jesus. There is renewal. But right now we need press. We need rest, sorry, in Christ. We need relief from anxiety and stress. We need calm before we sleep. We need the presence of Jesus. Lord, we're tired. Even I'm tired, Lord, as we're praying. Lord, we got to keep pushing this out. Lord, and my speech, Lord, sometimes get a little bit slurred because, Lord, we are pushing these out. And Lord, we're on the gun of prayer. And we pray, dear God, wherever we are across the world, as we're all tired and we're all weary, we pray, dear God, for spiritual refreshing right now. We need forgiveness, Lord, before we go to bed. Lord, will you replace those fears with hope today? Lord, will you guard our minds and our hearts in Christ Jesus? Father, we really need breakthrough. Lord, we believe, Lord, that we are not going to be anxious anymore. We are praying for thanksgiving, that God's peace is in our lives, and we are blessed. So, Father, bless the listeners today from the crown of their head to the sole of their feet as we make a call to action across the world.
