My eyes stay open through the watches of the night, that I may meditate on your promises
Psalm 119:148
Midnight is symbolic of when all things turn quiet. It is a time when a lot of people are asleep and life seemingly comes to a temporary standstill. The daytime can stand for the spring of a person’s entire life; from when they are young through their adult years to their golden years.
The night may stand for death; when all is said and done and life seizes to exist. We use the nighttime to therefore reflect on our days. To see what we did right and what we did wrong and learn from them so that we can approach tomorrow with better attitudes.
When all is quiet your thoughts become clearer and it is easier to meditate on the words we heard that day and explore what they mean. Sometimes we lay awake in bed at midnight just thinking about our lives; where we went wrong in our decision making and how we can improve on our situations.
But about midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns of praise to God, and the prisoners were listening to them
Acts 16:25
As Christians, the middle of the night is very significant. Apart from the fact that Jesus prayed at midnight, a lot of significant things happened at midnight in the bible.
God visited Egypt at midnight and killed every firstborn son, Ruth visited Boaz at midnight and got her life changed from there, the maidservant who stole the baby of the other maidservant did it at midnight, Paul and Silas prayed and sang hymns of praise at midnight and the bridegroom came at midnight.
All these events are symbolic in our Christian and spiritual lives. God visited the enemies of the Israelites at midnight meaning that God can destroy those who want your destruction if you meditate and pray to God in the night.
The maidservant whose baby got stolen symbolizes the tendency for other people to steal the good things that may be coming to you while you sleep. The bridegroom coming in the night symbolizes good things coming when we least expect them to or just when we are about to give up on them.
Praying in the night is imperative for a Christian.

Midnight prayers signal certain seriousness. Staying up that late tells God that you would rather speak to him than enjoy sleep. When you are that persistent with your prayers God also takes you seriously. It is a powerful demonstration of faith.
Just like the poor old woman who gave all she had as an offering, midnight prayers demonstrate a powerful indication of your strong belief in God. He will hear you and he will answer your prayers.
But about midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns of praise to God, and the prisoners were listening to them, and suddenly there came a great earthquake so that the foundations of the prison house were shaken, and immediately all the doors were opened and everyone’s chains were unfastened. When the jailer awoke and saw the prison doors opened, he drew his sword and was about to kill himself, supposing that the prisoners had escaped.
Acts 16:25-27
