TOPIC: LAZINESS IS SLEEP OF DEATH
Basic Scripture for Today 11 SEPTEMBER 2025 Prayer points and Declarations
Welcome to today’s devotional! Quickly note this: Work is not hard after all! Work is only hard for those who hardly work! Laziness is the art of resting before you are tired! David cried in Psalm 13:3, “Consider and hear me, O Lord my God! Enlighten my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death.” Sleep is not a luxury but a necessity given to man by God to enable men rest, refresh and refocus their lives. Even Jesus had to sleep in the ship because He was tired! However, there are times when sleep becomes a sin and can be used by your archenemy — Satan, to block, stagnate and confuse your life’s mission and vision. For example in Matthew 26: 40, Jesus attacked sleep: “Then He came to the disciples and found them asleep and said to Peter, ‘what, could you not watch with Me one hour?” When you sleep instead of praying or diligently studying the Word, it is the sleep of death! Any sleep you sleep instead of going on visitations to the sick/widows or during evangelism time, is the sleep of death! Any sleep you sleep during your local church fellowship time, is the bad sleep of death! Let God use today’s devotional to wake up any sleeping career, Word life, prayer life, talents/gifts, etc. Ecclesiastes 5:12 says: “The sleep of a labouring man is sweet.” Do you know that God says in 2 Thessalonians 3: 10 that, “He who does not work should not be allowed to eat?” That means he should be allowed to die! Ah! The LAZINESS or SLEEP of death! Connect that to 2 Peter 3:9 where it is stated that God does not want the sinner to perish! That further means that God prefers the death of a lazy man to the death of a sinner! Think about that in this 2nd half of 2025 and reject any unnecessary sleep or slumber! There are people who immediately begin to sleep once they open their Bibles or open their mouths to pray! Reject that! If you want your life to shine, you must work smart! Dignity is an offspring of diligence! Fatten your destiny by the work of your hands! Refuse discouragement! Keep working! Don’t forget that nobody is born poor! Others can only influence you, but you are the principal architect of your destiny! Yes, by destiny, we are all stars, but we actually shine by wisdom and diligence!
