EPHSIANS 5:14 NKJV
APOSTLE PAUL WRITES”AWAKE,YOU WHO SLEEP,ARISE FROM THE DEAD, AND CHRIST WILL GIVE YOU LIGHT”
THIS VERSE COULD BE APPLIED BOTH TO THE SPIRITUAL AND PHYSICAL LIVES OF PEOPLE. THERE ARE THREE TYPES OF PEOPLE, ONES WHO AUTOMATICALLY WAKE UP WITHOUT AN ALARM, ONES WHO WAKE UP WITH THE HELP OF AN ALARM AND THE ONES WHO IN SPITE OF THE ALARM RINGING HIT THE SNOOZE BUTTON SEVERAL TIME BEFORE WAKING UP.
AT SOME POINT IN OUR LIVES WE HAVE ALL LIVED THESE THREE WAYS, PHYSICALLY YES, WHAT ABOUT SPIRITUALLY?
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE GOD TO WAKE YOU UP?
PEOPLE WHO SLUMBER IN THE SPIRIT ARE THE UNFORTUNATE ONES. GOD IS CALLING HIS PEOPLE TO WAKE UP AND LIVE LIFE TO THE FULL. TODAY CHRISTIANS ARE IN DEEP SPIRITUAL SLUMBER. IF YOU ARE ALERT IN THE SPIRITUAL YOU WILL BE ALERT IN THE PHYSICAL TOO, CAUSE WHATEVER TAKES PLACE IT FIRST TAKES PLACE IN THE SPIRIT REALM AND THEN IN THE PHYSICAL.
IF YOU AREN'T ALERT IN THE SPIRITUAL YOU WILL NEVER SUCCEED NOR SAVE YOUR OR THE LIVES OF YOUR LOVED ONES IN THE PHYSICAL. DO YOU REMEMBER SOMEONE SAYING THAT YOU ARE THE WATCH MAN OF YOUR HOUSE. IN THAT DEEP SLEEP YOU WILL NOT BE AWARE WHEN THE ENEMY WOULD HAVE ENTERED SOWED TARES IN YOUR LIFE AND GONE, WHEN YOU WAKE UP ALL YOU WILL SEE IS CHAOS ALL AROUND YOU. MOREOVER YOU WILL LIVE A LIFE UNAWARE OF YOUR PURPOSE OF CALLING AND TRANSFORMING. WHEN YOU SNOOZE THE BUTTON OF GOD’S ALARM YOU ARE PUTTING A PAUSE ON YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD AND WHEN YOU DO THAT YOU NOT ONLY LOSE OUT ON YOUR BLESSINGS BUT ALSO LOVE, PEACE AND JOY.
PRAYER : FATHER GOD MAY I NOT SLEEP LIKE THE DEAD THAT I AM UNAWARE OF YOUR CALL, MAY I NOT IGNORE YOUR VOICE, MAY I UNDERSTAND THAT I WILL ALWAYS NEED YOU BY MY SIDE, AND KNOWING THAT MAY I BE ALERT TO LISTEN TO YOUR CALL. IN JESUS NAME I PRAY AMEN AMEN AND AMEN.
