MFM Daily Devotional 17 March 2021 Outline
Men and women who have made the greatest mark in different arenas of life, including the Kingdom of God, are those who succeeded in conquering sleep – they won the battle of the bed. Sleep is good for the health and wellbeing of man. No human being can do without it.
It is theraupatic and essential for the physical, emotional and mental development of man. However, sleep, like every other useful thing, must be regulated or controlled so as to maximise its benefits. It is disheartening that some people do not only oversleep physically but they also slumber spiritually.
Besides, many Christians have failed to fulfil destiny because they are still in bondage to the bed. Samson’s careless sleep led to the shaving of his hair and losing his divine strength, ministry and glory. Jonah’s sleep in the ship landed him in trouble and he was cast into the sea and the belly of the whale.
In the New Testament, Jesus hinted that while men slept, the enemy sowed tares in their wheat. The hour of sleep can therefore be described as man’s vulnerable and unguarded hour. The five foolish virgins who missed the bridegroom were unfortunate because they slept when they should be awake.
Similarly, a man named Eutychus fell and died because he slept off during Paul’s sermon. All these examples are written for your learning. Do you sleep when you should be awake, active and productive? You must turn a new leaf from today. Do you oversleep? Again, that will have negative effects on your spiritual and physical lives.
Let everything you do, including the hours you spend in sleeping, be done with moderation! Many people are also in spiritual slumber. The Kingdom of God does not tolerate laziness and slothfulness. Wake up from your slumber!
Motivational Quote
If you want your dream to come true, don’t oversleep.
Prophetic Word
The enemy will no longer use sleep to short-change you and pervert your destiny, in the name of Jesus.
