Rising early prayers should be proud because God is pride because of them in presence of angels. The Holy Messenger, Peace upon Him, narrates the reason of this pride as

« اِذا قامَ العَبْدُ مِنْ لَذیدِ مَضْجَعِهِ وَ النُّعاسُ فی عَیْنَیْهِ لِیُرْضِیَ رَبَّهُ – جَلَّ وَ عَزَّ ـ بِصَلاةِ لَیْلِهِ ، باهِیَ اللهُ بِهِ مَلائِکَتَهُ ، فَقالَ : اَما تَرَوْنَ عَبْدی هَذا ، قَدْ قامَ مِنْ لَذیدِ مَضْجَعِهِ اِلِی صَلاةٍ لَمْ اَفْرِضْها عَلَیْهِ اِشْهَدُوا اَنّی قَدْ غَفَرْتُ لَهُ»

"When someone gets up in the midnight from the comfortable bed for Night Pray, while his eyes are sleepy, to attract his God satisfaction, God takes pride of his servant existence in presence of angels and says: don’t you see my servant, getting up from his sleep to pray me while I had not make this praying obligatory to him? Be witnessed! I have forgiven him!"
