Summary: A BELIEVER'S SLEEP

WORRIED?

OBSERVATION: MOST OF THE PROVERBS ORIGINATED BY SOLOMON, A NOTABLE KING OF ISRAEL. HE GAINED HIS WISDOM FROM HIS FATHER, DAVID AND HIS MOTHER BATHSHEBA. A PROPHET OF GOD, NATHAN ALSO TUTORED SOLOMON. AGUR AND LEMUEL, WISE TEACHERS, ALSO WROTE SOME SECTIONS OF PROVERBS. SOLOMON HAD A GIFT OF WISDOM.

INTERPRETATION: PROVERBS 3: 24 (NKJV) WHEN YOU LIE DOWN, YOU WILL NOT BE AFRAID; YES, YOU WILL LIE DOWN AND YOUR SLEEP WILL BE SWEET.

POINTS TO PONDER:

JOB 11: 18 SPEAKS TO A NIGHT’S REST. NOTICE THE WORD SAFETY.

A BELIEVER SHOULD NOT FEAR DEATH, KNOWING CHRIST IS THE DESTROYER OF DEATH (1 CORINTHIANS 15:55).

SLEEP IS SWEET AND ENJOYED BY GOD’S FORGIVENESS OF SIN IN YOUR LIFE.

SLEEP CAN BE SWEETENED BY PRODUCING GOOD WORKS AND CHARITABLE ENDEAVORS TOWARDS BELIEVERS AND UNBELIEVERS.

CHRISTIANS MUST WARFARE DAILY AGAINST SATAN’S ATTACKS. A GOOD NIGHTS REST IS WORTH IT.

1 JOHN 4: 18 STATES LOVE CASTS OUT YOUR FEAR. LOVE ON THE LORD AND ENJOY HIS SAFETY SHELTERED UNDER THE SHADOW OF HIS WINGS.

APPLICATION: WORRIED? YOUR LAST BREATH MUST NOT BE A TERROR TO YOU. IT MUST BE SWEET, KNOWING YOU HAVE ETERNAL LIFE WITH GOD THE FATHER IN HEAVEN.
