"Plucking the seventh string of his harp, David cried out, saying, 'The mountain of God, the mountain enriched; the mountain congealed, the mountain enriched.'"

Atai Parthenos + Aripresvevin - Athanasius Deacons

There is nothing sweeter, than the time of prayer
It saves me from my tribulations, and I gain His contentment
It keeps pain away from me, and enlightens my heart 
It opens the gates of heaven, and then my Lord hears me
My necessities He provides, my illnesses he heals 
He does grant me all of my needs, and has me rejoice in them
In time of my sadness, my Lord forgets me not
He holds me with His right hand, and He strengthens my faith
There is nothing sweeter, than the time of prayer
The God of heaven rejoices, and gives me life
He promised salvation, if we pray unto Him
Our sicknesses he can heal them, if we come to Him 
His love for us is great, His mercy is everlasting 
We must always pray to God, prayer time is beneficial

clarification regarding verse 11: The main idea is that God doesn’t punish for the sake of punishment because He is angry. He says "I have no pleasure in the death of a sinner" (Ezekiel 18:23). God is actively working. He is not passive. God intervenes and punishes in order to end evil or to prevent it from spreading, after a long period of patience. God's anger (aka wrath) is against the sin and the death hurting His creation. Punishment and consequence carry different connotations but are, in a way, two sides of the same coin. The important thing to remember though is that a consequence or punishment coming from God is meant to push us towards repentance and salvation.
