In Jewish culture, the day began at sunset, but the early morning was often considered a time for new beginnings and spiritual renewal. This practice of rising early for prayer is seen throughout the Bible, such as in the life of King David (Psalm 5:3) and the patriarchs.

We should find our own "solitary places" where we can focus on God without interruptions. Early Morning Devotion Jesus prayed early in the morning, setting the tone for His day. Starting our day with prayer can align our hearts and minds with God's will.

Spiritual Refreshment Just as Jesus was refreshed and empowered through prayer, we too can find spiritual renewal and strength in our times of prayer.(35) A great while before day.--Literally, very early, while it was yet night. The note of time is peculiar to St. Mark. Prayer seems to have been sought now, as at other times, after a day of extraordinary and exhausting labour.Verse 35. - And in the morning, at great while before day, he rose up and went out, and departed into a desert place, and there prayed. Our Lord thus prepared himself by prayer for his first departure on a missionary tour. This would be the morning of the first day of the week. A great while before day he left the scene of excitement. That was not a time for preaching the Gospel of the Kingdom. The miracles attracted attention to him, but they were not the object for which he came. They were necessary as means of stirring and awakening men's minds, and of fixing their attention upon him and upon the great salvation which he came to reveal. So he left the miracles to do their subordinate work; and he himself went into a desert place, that he might pray with more quiet and less distraction. He retired that he might escape the applause of men, which they were ready to lavish upon him after seeing so many miracles; that he might thus teach us to shun the praise of men. Let us learn from Christ to give the early morning to prayer, and to rise with the dawn of day, that we may have time for meditation, and give the firstfruits of the morning to God. The early morning is favorable for study; but it is specially dear to God and his angels. Parallel Commentaries ...
