Prayer and Joy in the Morning

Look at these Bible Passages on prayer and joy in the morning.

Mark 1:35 And rising very early in the morning, while it was still dark, he departed and went out to a desolate place, and there he prayed.

Psalms 30:5 For his anger is but for a moment,and his favor is for a lifetime. Weeping may tarry for the night,but  joy comes with the morning.

More Prayer in the Morning…

Psalms 88:13 But to You I have cried out, O LORD, And in the morning my prayer comes before You. Have you ever woken up early in the morning with lots on your mind?  Well many times this is the Lord calling us to prayer.  Prayer in the morning is a wonderful time of  intimate fellowship with God.  Sometimes its just a groan or a cry or just a sigh.  But it is still prayer.

The Morning Time is Crucial

The Morning time with God in the Word and prayer is crucial to our spiritual life.  Just like breakfast giving us the energy start for the day, our time in the morning in prayer is very important.   We have examples from Moses, David, Daniel, Jesus and others where the early morning prayer was practiced much.

Consider all these verses:

Exodus 34:1 And the LORD said unto Moses, … 2 And be ready in the morning, and come up in the morning unto mount Sinai, and present thyself there to me in the top of the mount.

Psalms 5:3 My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct [my prayer] unto thee, and will look up.

Psalms 55:17 7 Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and he shall hear my voice.

Psalms 88:13 3 But unto thee have I cried, O LORD; and in the morning shall my prayer prevent thee.

Mark 1:35 And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed.

Psalms 88:13 But to You I have cried out, O LORD, And in the morning my prayer comes before You.
