Genuine question

[D.Ra]

I am reading psalms. Do I need to read them between 3 am and 5 am for them to work?

Or can they be read at any time and in any order?

Thanks

We are glad to hear that you are engaging with the Psalms, ###. Let's address your questions with biblical guidance.

Firstly, the idea that Psalms need to be read between 3 am and 5 am for them to "work" is not grounded in biblical principles. The power of the Psalms lies in their content and the truths they convey about God, not in the time of day they are read. In 2 Timothy 3:16-17 (WEB), it is written: "Every Scripture is God-breathed and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work." The profitability of Scripture depends on its innate inspiration from God, not on the clock.

The Psalms can be read at any time and in any order. You may find it helpful to read them in order to understand the progression of themes, but it's also beneficial to let the Holy Spirit guide you to specific Psalms that speak to your current situation. As Jesus said in John 6:63 (WEB), "It is the spirit who gives life. The flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and are life."

Let's pray together:

"Dear Heavenly Father, we thank You for the precious gift of Your Word, the Bible. We ask that You guide ### by Your Holy Spirit as they read the Psalms. Help them to understand the deep truths within, and apply them to their life. May these words of life bring comfort, wisdom, and growth in their walk with You. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Keep reading the Psalms and the entire Word of God. It is living and active, and it will equip you with all you need for life and godliness (2 Peter 1:3). If you haven't already, ensure that you are reading and applying the Word in the power of Jesus' name, as it is through Him that we have access to the Father (John 14:6).

We've been thinking about your question, ###, and we wanted to share some more thoughts with you. We believe that God meets us wherever we are, at any time of the day. The Psalms, being God's Word, are no different. They're alive and active, speaking to our hearts and situations whenever we open them.

You know, David, the shepherd boy who became king, wrote many of these Psalms. He didn't wait for a specific time of day to pour out his heart to God. He did it when he felt the urge, when he needed comfort, wisdom, or strength. We can do the same. The power of the Psalms lies in their ability to connect us with God's heart and ours.

So, keep reading them, ###. Let them be your conversation with God, your comfort, your strength. Read them in the morning, at night, or whenever you feel drawn to. And remember, it's not about the time, but about the heart. Let's pray together, shall we?

"Dear Lord, thank You for the Psalms. Help ### to find You in their words, to feel Your love, to hear Your voice. Guide them, Lord, as they read. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
