Explore the spiritual benefits of morning and evening prayer, and discover which time may draw you closer to God.
Morning vs. Evening Prayer: When Is Your Soul Most Open?
Prayer is the heartbeat of a believer’s life. But when we pray can influence how open, focused, and intimate that time with God becomes.
The Gift of Morning Prayer
Mornings offer a fresh start. The world is still, your heart is uncluttered, and your day is yet to be shaped. Many believers find that:
- Early prayer sets the tone for the day
- Quiet mornings are ideal for hearing God's voice
- Morning routines help develop consistency
Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed.— Mark 1:35
The Power of Evening Prayer
Evening prayer invites reflection. You bring your day before God — the highs, the lows, the gratitude, and the burdens.
- End your day in God’s peace
- Let go of stress before sleep
- Reflect and reconnect
On my bed I remember you; I think of you through the watches of the night.— Psalm 63:6
So, When Is the Right Time?
There’s no one-size-fits-all answer. The best time to pray is when your heart is open and your mind is still. That might be at dawn, dusk, or both.
