Word of Encouragement for Every New Day ~ 25 July 2008

Unveiling our sin: Lack of Sleep Galatians 5:19-21 says, The acts of the sinful nature are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissension, factions and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God. The lack of sleep is a true sign that something is not right inside us. It could be a sin issue. It could be because we are walking in one of the things mentioned in Galatians 5:19-21. Or it could be a medical reason, but I believe that God is greater than any illness we may face in life. If we are not at peace, it is very hard to sleep, which is why more and more people are taking sleeping pills to solve their problems and issues so that they can sleep. However, today I am praying that this word of encouragement would offer us freedom and release, giving us all great sleep at night. In Ephesians 4:26 the word of God says, In your anger do not sin: Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry. Today, if you get angry easily and often have fits of rage, yelling and screaming at people, I hope that you will find strength in God to see a great change take place. God’s warning is clear, those that live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God. © July 2008 Shaun Lee. www.everynation.org.sg archive: www.shauntzen.blogspot.com
