Praises and Petitions at Midnight

Psalms 119:62

“At midnight I will rise to give thanks unto thee because of thy righteous judgments.”

During one of the hardest seasons of my life the Lord revealed to me the hidden treasure of rising to pray and praise our Father in the midnight hour.

To jumpstart our day afresh, connected with the Source of Life, Jesus the Christ. To arm ourselves with worship, the Word, and the Full Armor of God!

It is sound and biblical wisdom to pray and praise at Midnight. 

Paul and Silas delivered themselves and the rest of the prisoners with them when they praised God at midnight! Through worshipping at midnight they were able to save a soldier from killing himself. They even went on to save the soldier's entire household and baptize them in Jesus name! (Acts 16:25-34)

There is just a principle that's available in the midnight hour. Samson even after committing sin with a harlot, was able to intercept the plans of the enemy at midnight! The Gazites laid wait for him all night in the gate of the city. They said that in the morning when it was day they would kill him. Samson waited and arose at midnight, and took the doors of the gate of the city, the post, bar and all! You see while the enemy sleeps you can awake and dismantle their plans. (Judges 16:2-3) 

The turning of events occur at midnight! The bible says though weeping may endure for the night, JOY comes in the morning! (Pslams 30:5)

It is imperative that we watch and be vigilant. Much like the five wise virgins, who had their lamps trimmed with oil, ready and available to answer the call of the Lord! The bible says, "at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him." What if they were asleep and didn't hear the call, even if they did have oil? Lord please in JESUS name, allow your children to always hear and meet you with our lamps trimmed with oil. Wide awake and not in stupor or slumber in JESUS Holy name! (Matthew 25:6)

Psalms 40 🕊️⚔️

1 I waited patiently for the Lord; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry. 2 He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings. 3 And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the Lord. 4 Blessed is that man that maketh the Lord his trust, and respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies. 5 Many, O Lord my God, are thy wonderful works which thou hast done, and thy thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered. 6 Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; mine ears hast thou opened: burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required. 7 Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me, 8 I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart. 9 I have preached righteousness in the great con...

Proverbs 5 ⚔️🕊️

1 My son, attend unto my wisdom, and bow thine ear to my understanding: 2 That thou mayest regard discretion, and that thy lips may keep knowledge. 3 For the lips of a strange woman drop as an honeycomb, and her mouth is smoother than oil: 4 But her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a two-edged sword. 5 Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on hell. 6 Lest thou shouldest ponder the path of life, her ways are moveable, that thou canst not know them. 7 Hear me now therefore, O ye children, and depart not from the words of my mouth. 8 Remove thy way far from her, and come not nigh the door of her house: 9 Lest thou give thine honour unto others, and thy years unto the cruel: 10 Lest strangers be filled with thy wealth; and thy labours be in the house of a stranger; 11 And thou mourn at the last, when thy flesh and thy body are consumed, 12 And say, How have I hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof; 13 And have not obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor inclined mine ear...
