Who needs Psalms and why?
Priests advise parishioners to always have a psalter with them. This book will help you deal with such negative emotions as:
• anger;
• envy;
• sadness;
• schadenfreude;
If a believer has come up with dark thoughts, if he is going through difficult times, the holy text will help to find peace in his soul. The priests read the psalms from the Psalms during the church service. At home, they are read after the death of loved ones or for finding peace and grace. Also, psalms are the best medicine for many ailments, both physical and mental.
The best gift
Psalms are an excellent gift to the church, which is closer to the native home for parishioners. In addition, it is a fine gift for close friends and family on Easter, Christmas, or another religious holiday.
The most dangerous time of the day
After midnight comes a dangerous time when the forces of darkness can appear to a Christian and begin to confuse him, lead him into sin, tempt him with dark temptations. People who live peacefully, even the most zealous Christians, should not read Psalms after midnight. In exceptional cases, the priest gives a special blessing for this.
Monks, on the contrary, should be awake at this time of day and at the slightest temptation to read psalms. For the dark forces, they are like a cleansing flame. In some monasteries, monks read the Psalter around the clock. Some readers replace others.
The period between midnight and three o’clock has specific importance. People had poor dreams, the sick began to have pains, and babies cried at this time. The most impressionable Christians have seen terrible things in reality.
At the same time, some schemers noted that after midnight the connection with heaven becomes closer, and prayers often reach the Lord God. The main thing is not to give in to temptations and behave carefully during this contradictory frightening period.
The conclusion
Some believe that the psalms are an abbreviated version of the Holy Scripture. That is not exactly true. These religious texts consist of prayers with which you can repent before God, ask him for something, or thank the Heavenly powers.
