The moment people recognize G-d as Creator, King and Father, it is logic to want to serve G-d. One does this by observing the 7 Noahide Commandments, and its details, to the best of one’s ability. The 7 Commandments do not include a direct commandment to pray. But the basis foundation of prayer is the explicit recognition of the One G-d, which is one of the 7 Commandments. It is the recognition that G-d, as Director of the World, is watching over him, and over everything in the creation.[1]
We see the Mitzvah of Prayer for Noahides in Isaiah 56:7:
My house shall be called a house of prayer for all peoples
Rabbi Moshe Weiner writes[2]:
The main part of the service of the heart and mind is prayer. Therefore one should always pray before G-d, to make requests to Him for alle of his needs, and he should thank and praise Hi always according to his ability.
Rabbi Moshe Weiner writes[3]:
Unlike Jews, Noahides have no set liturgy which they are obligated to follow. Rather, each individual can pray in his own words, in a language that he understands. It is proper to include recitations of excerpts from the Book of Psalms-Tehillim by King David, of blessed memory, since the Psalms are all prayers to G-d that were composed with holy inspiration and encompasse all the essential needs and righteous spiritual emotions that people have.[4]
Sukkat Shalom Bnei Noach has started a Tehillim Prayer Whatsapp Group – which is dedicated to the father and brother of our group member Tineke.
The purpose of the Group is to recite all the Psalms together for 1 specific main purpose. That is, you write in the app which Psalms you have recited. For example, “2-4” the next person then starts at Psalm 5 and then writes down, for example, “5-6” etc.
The topic for prayer changes every cycle. See the homepage for this cycle’s topic or see the list below.
The app can also be written in if you want someone to recite a specific Psalm for you. For example, “Pray for me Psalm 15”. (The Whatsapp Group is not for discussion or questions. That is what the general GroupsApp of Sukkat Shalom Bnei Noach is for.)
Any Psalm can be prayed for any occasion. It is beneficial to consider which Psalm speaks to you the most, which you feel most connected to in a given scenario, and then pray it.
Join our WhatsAppGroup by sending us a email!
Some people want to know if they can say specific Psalms for specific events.
