Proverbs 20:13
Do not love sleep or you will grow poor; stay awake and you will have food to spare.
In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, grace and peace to all!
Our dear Savior loves us, washed away our sins with His blood, and gave us this assurance. For a few days, we remain very spiritually close to the Lord, but then in office work and other tasks, we can’t even spare 5 minutes for the Lord. We become so immersed in our own work.
What we must notice here is this: If we feel hungry or lacking life, out of fear of that, we give up attachment to sleep, wake up, and continue in the habit of eating that life-sustaining food and being satisfied.
In another way, if we think about it, excessive sleep is not good for our body either.
Therefore, with the help of our dear Savior Jesus Christ alone, we must have the assurance in our hearts that we will have victory in everything, as I pray in Christ’s name.
Prayer!
Our dear Heavenly Father! Let Your name be sanctified! In so many ways, I have been far from You, yet You alone continue to love me without leaving me. Apart from You, I have no direction. I am looking toward You, Father. Help for me comes only from You. Free me from sleep so I can partake of Your bread of life; grant me that opportunity too. I ask this in the name of Jesus Christ, Father.
Amen!
