The Third Prayer Watch is called "The Breaking of Day Watch."
12:00 A.M. to 3:00 A.M.
This "prayer watch hour" will both test and strengthen your faith because of the spiritual activity.
1. It is the same time that Peter denied Christ three times.
Luke 22:34 KJV And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the c**k shall not crow this day, before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.
2. The Apostle Paul and Silas were released from prison during this time (Acts 16:25).
3. God released the people of Israel from Egypt at this time (Exodus 12:31).
4. Samson escaped from Gaza at midnight (12am) by pulling up the gates of the city and carrying them out with him. Judges 16:3-4,
This watch is the darkest and most demonic part of the night, especially at midnight.
Some call this hour "the Witching Hour".
Witches, warlocks, and Satanists have fun and start their incantations during this part of the night.
The devil operates at this time because this is the time that men are in a deep sleep, and there are not as many people praying to oppose him.
1 Kings 3:20 KJV And she arose at midnight, and took my son from beside me, while thine handmaid slept, and laid it in her bosom, and laid her dead child in my bosom.
Beloved this watch calls for seasoned intercessors who are not afraid of witchcraft.
You must not be afraid of witchcraft during this watch because the Lord has given us dominion and authority over all things.
This watch is geared for those who already know how to use their spiritual armor and war against the enemy.
This is the time to pray against satanic attacks on your life, your family members, your marriages, your church, and communities.
We are most vulnerable to the devil’s attacks because, at this time, most intercessors are asleep.
If you are awake, pray Psalm 91 for Divine Protection for yourself, family, church, city, and nation.
Psalm 91:5-8 KJV Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; Nor for the arrow that flieth by day; [6] Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; Nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. [7] A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; But it shall not come nigh thee. [8] Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold And see the reward of the wicked.
This prayer watch sets your day before it begins.
It is a powerful watch to be on when commanding the morning and setting things in place before the devil and his demons have a chance to ruin it.
Many acts of the devil can be stopped during this watch when intercessors obey the voice of the Lord by waking up and saturating this time with powerful, Spirit-led prayers.
This is the time to awake out of sleep and confront every storm of destruction and distraction that is robbing you of God’s blessings and provisions on your life.
Also, it is the time to speak peace and calm into every situation of turbulence and confusion.
Thus, it is time to strengthen yourself spiritually and seek God's direction.
Be vigilant during this time and watch for God’s revelation for breakthrough and for His plans and purposes for your life and territory.
12am-3am is the time to make your request know unto God.
This is the period to pray for God’s provision to be released (Luke 11:5-13; Acts 16:3).
It is also time for miracles and for applying the Blood of Jesus.
Because it's naturally the time for sleeping, dreams flow during these hours.
Often, we are awakened during this time with dreams God has given to us.
God uses those dreams and visions to bring instructions and counsel to us as we sleep.
The devil can also attack you in dreams and nightmares, so always pray before you go to sleep and ask God to keep you from the enemy’s devices.
He also reveals areas where we need to concentrate our prayers through intercession.
Job 33:15 “In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls upon men, while slumbering on their beds, then He opens the ears of men, and seals their instructions.”
So, here are suggested Prayer Decrees for this prayer watch.12am-3am
Father, I plead the blood of Jesus against all demons of the night, nightmares, torment, and sleeplessness.
Father, I ask that you protect my mind while I sleep.
In peace, I will lie down and sleep, for You alone, O Lord, will keep me safe. (Psalms 4:8)
Father, by the blood of Jesus and the power of His Name, I spoil every attack of the enemy. I cancel and forcefully oppose any satanic operations and strategies that are designed to hinder and prevent your plans and purpose for my life from manifesting.
Father, You said in Your Word that whatever we bind on earth is bound in heaven; whatever we lose on earth is loosed in heaven. Therefore, through the name of Jesus Christ and the power of His Blood, I bind and break all witchcraft spirits, all curses, spells, and powers of darkness working against me. I cancel every attack of oppression, depression, perversion, distraction, hindrance, and deception. No evil shall befall me or plague come near my dwelling. No weapon formed against me will prosper, for You order Your angels to protect me wherever I go. They will hold me up in their hands so my foot will not hit against a stone. (Psalm 91: 11-12)
Father, I thank you for giving me the desires and secret petitions of my heart because I delight myself in You (Psalm 37:4).
I proclaim that You are my provision. I have no lack in my family, my body, or my finances. You supply all my needs according to Your glorious riches in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19).
