The Hazards of Sleeping in Church ACTS 20:7-12

ALWAYS: Authentic believers must constantly guard against the temptation to spiritually nap.

1. Stay awake to take advantage of opportunities for spiritual growth.

“Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15

2. Be alert to avoid the schemes of Satan.

“Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power “Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.” Ephesians 6:10-12

“Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you “Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kind of sufferings.

And the God of grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast. 1 Peter 5:7-10

3. Do not drift into spiritual complacency.

“We must pay more careful attention, therefore, to what we have seen and heard, so that we do not drift away. For if the message spoken by angels was binding, and every violation and disobedience received its just punishment, how shall we escape if we ignore such a great salvation?

This salvation, which was first announced by the Lord, was confirmed to us by those who heard him. God also testified to it by signs, wonders, and various miracles, and gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed according to His will.” Hebrews 2:1-4

Lord help us to avoid complacency and challenge us to grow in our faith!
