Answer:

Dear Friend,

I appreciate your question concerning when is a good time to pray.  The Scriptures teach us that we should always pray.  Luke 18:1 says, “And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;” In other words, God is teaching us that every time is a good time to pray.  Furthermore, God teaches in 1 Thessalonians 5:17, “Pray without ceasing.” The Christian should have a prayer life.

But to be more direct with your question, there are several instances that God shows us that people prayed three times a day.  I believe that you should daily have a set time of prayer.  I believe according to Matthew 6:33 we should make this time in the morning.  Though it would be good to spend time with God throughout the day, I believe if you will have a set time that it will help you to be consistent in your prayer life.

I hope this helps,
