Good morning Bible verses

The main good-morning Bible verses are Psalms 143:8, Lamentations 3:22-23, Psalms 5:3 and Psalms 118:24. Psalms 143:8 is the daybreak prayer: "Cause me to hear your loving kindness in the morning". Lamentations 3:22-23 is the one most often sent in a morning message — his mercies "are new every morning". Psalms 5:3 describes laying your requests before God in the morning and watching expectantly. Psalms 118:24 celebrates the day as something received. This page collects 8 good-morning Bible verses with the full text, the reference and a one-line explanation for each.

Morning appears in the Bible as the hour for prayer and decision. Jesus rises before dawn to pray in a lonely place; the psalmist says that in the morning he lays his prayer before God and watches; Lamentations locates God's mercies right there, new every morning. There is a practical reason: what we read in the first minutes sets the tone for the rest of the day. The verses on this page are short on purpose, to fit in a good-morning message, a post or an image made here on the site — and to be read aloud before coffee. Pick one per week and send it to someone who usually wakes up tired: the right sentence at seven in the morning is worth more than many at eleven at night.
