For many, the answer lies in anxious thoughts about money, security, or injustice. In How to Get a Good Night’s Sleep, Stephen Davey opens Ecclesiastes 5:8–12 to show how Solomon wrestled with the same struggles—and points us toward God’s solution. Solomon observed oppression, greed, and injustice in society. He saw how even kings and rulers seemed to take advantage rather than provide relief. Yet he reminded us that above every earthly power sits the Sovereign God, and He alone offers the comfort our hearts long for. This passage also warns us about the love of money. No matter how much wealth we gain, it never feels like enough. Riches multiply worries, invite corruption, and rob us of rest. But Solomon draws a contrast: the day laborer, content with little, sleeps peacefully, while the wealthy toss and turn. Through this lesson, you’ll discover two life-changing principles: trust the highest authority of all—God’s sovereignty—and pursue the best treasure of all—contentment with a grateful heart. These truths provide the kind of peace that no amount of wealth can secure. If you’ve been longing for rest, this message will remind you that the sweetest sleep is found when your soul is settled on God’s promises.
