Did you know that saying Catholic Evening Prayers is the proper way to conclude the day? You should not only start your day with God, but you should also end it with Him in prayer.
He enjoys communicating with his children at all hours of the day and night. Evening prayers are extremely personal with God.
You’ve had an entire day to reflect on His mercy, grace, and benefits bestowed upon you. You’ve also dealt with tension and heartbreak at times.
Give appreciation to the One who loves and knows you best before you close your eyes at night.

After a Long Day, Pray for Peace
Father, today was a particularly difficult day for me. I’m worried about my bills, finances, work, family troubles, and the state of the world around me. I feel like I’m at the end of my rope and don’t know how to hang on any longer. Life is currently out of control, and I’m unsure how to face another day. Lord, I desperately need Your strength right now. You are my hero! Please renew my spirit via singing, calm, and reassurance. Your Word, refresh my thoughts! Lord, refresh my soul with this prayer! I know You are in charge and that You will straighten out my routes and iron out all of my hiccups. What can I take away from these experiences? I entrust them all to You. Amen.
In the Coming Days, Pray for Anticipation
I’m ready to go to bed and wake up refreshed the next day, but I can’t help but think about the anticipation and sorrow I feel about life in general. But, in the midst of my anxiety, I find myself wondering about Heaven. I envision lovely paths where the saints converse and shout praises to You! I visualize the room that Jesus has prepared for me while He awaits my arrival. I am reminded that I do not need to be concerned about tomorrow or the future. Because You are my only protection and my everything. Father, thank You for loving me so much!

You tell us in Your Word that the enemy comes to murder, steal, and destroy. I am weak against such wickedness on my own, but with You, I am victorious.
You promised that whatever we bind on earth will also be bound in heaven. As a result, I bind all traps that the devil has placed in my path. In the great name of Jesus, I bring down every evil that he has concocted.
When it comes to wicked intentions, I implore You to keep them away from my hearing, sight, feeling, thinking, touch, and sense.
Lord, assist us to be mindful of any negative thoughts that arise in our minds. And when they do, let us not sit back and take a thrashing from the enemy, but rather use Your Word to throw down every false thinking.
