WHILE MEN SLEPT. Spiritual dangers of sleeping to slumber
When i arose in the morning to nurse my son, behold he was dead, but when i looked at him carefully in the morning,
he was as not my son whom i had borne..
1st king 3:21.
This is the testimony of one of the two women married to one man, but whom had put to bed at the same time.
Why the attention on thus story??
I have tagged this..
WHILE MEN SLEPT...
and by men I am referring to both gender.
It is natural to sleep for rest, but on spiritual grounds? it is referd to as SLUMBER.
It is detrimental for any child of God to go to slumber.
That is why the bible called us to wake up from our slumber as our salvation is nearer than when we first believe...
ROM 13:11.
What am I trying to point out..???
You see from the story,
These women who put to bed, one of them slept wrongly and pressed her own child to death..
What a mother indeed who can be so bad even in her sleep to kill her own child?
I just can't imagine that..
But she was so corny enough to quickly wake up and exchange her death child with the living child of her rival.
Hmmmn..
The rival whose child was still alive had slept so deeply into slumber that her loving child was exchanged with the death without even her knowledge.
This is how we either sleep so bad to kill our DESTINIES, or sleep into slumber that the enemy cones and steals away our destinies.
Leaving full of emptiness.
And nothing will ever seem to workout even when we endeavor in all ramification we end up failures.
Our relationships, Our Job, Family, and Business..
Everything seem to fail just at our turch.
This may be the reasons..
It is either we have slept so bad to have killed our destinies.
Or
We have slept so Mich that the enemy had stolen our desires away..
Just as the case of these two women.
We might be any one of the category above. And are in dire need of restoration.
The Goodnews is JESUS can grant us this restoration that we may be seeking..
Let's just come to him.
If peradventure we are just about to sleep away into killing our own destiny or loosing it away through the enemie's exchange with a death one for us due to our sleep into slumber..
Then we must wake up from this sleep and slumber through a praying life..
Be a praying Christian.
PRAY WITHOUT SEASON.
