Thought 260
Do you love sleep?
Do you love sleep so
much that it has become a sin because it keeps you from having a quiet time
with God and your responsibilities to others. I’ll admit that I enjoy a good
night’s rest, but if we love sleep the Bible warns that poverty will come like
an armed bandit (Proverbs 24:33-34).
“How long
wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? when wilt thou arise out of thy sleep? Yet a little sleep, a little slumber,
a little folding of the hands to sleep: So shall thy poverty come as one that
travelleth, and thy want as an armed man.”
Proverbs 6:9-11 KJV
“He
becometh poor that dealeth with
a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent maketh rich. He that gathereth in
summer is a wise son: but he that sleepeth in harvest is
a son that causeth shame.” Proverbs 10:4-5 KJV
