To pray well through the night, an intercessor must first settle their posture before God.
The watchman does not sleep at his post. In the same way, an intercessor learns to stay spiritually alert — guarding thoughts, silencing distractions, and keeping the Word on the lips.
Practical helps: prepare your petitions before you begin, keep a journal for the Spirit’s impressions, worship before you ask, and pray in the Spirit as you are led.
Above all, remember that the midnight hour is not about how long you pray, but how near you draw. Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you.
