3 Reasons Why Praying at Midnight And 3am is What you Should Do
We should pray at midnight (12 am) and 3 am because it is believed to be an essential spiritual and Christian practice. Even though the scriptures do not specify 3:00 A.M as the best time for believers to pray, they provide obvious examples of certain God’s servants who were enthusiastic about praying at midnight. Paul and Silas represent a good example of such people according to Acts 16:20.
According to the Bible records, in the prison, they were locked up, they were singing and praying loudly at midnight. The convicts were set free by God after the jail doors were broken open by an earthquake.
Praying at night has been significantly shown by a number of Bible verses. Christians should also read the Bible so that the Holy Spirit can minister to them individually. Here are other reasons why one should pray at midnight to 3:00 AM.
1. This is the best time to seek the face of God. This is because at this time most people are asleep and the devil is awake trying to torment them. This period is when most witches carry out their evil activities and praying is the best weapon to overcome the power of darkness.
2. This is the time of pleading for mercy and forgiveness. One should wake up and make a confession to God without any distraction as the environment is quiet and serene for praying.
3. The 3:00 a.m prayers empower you to grow stronger and deeper. It enables one to be healthy, sleep well under God’s protection and wake up with God’s abundant blessings.
