Revelation of the Word:

THEME: TIME MANAGEMENT

Proverbs 24:33-34 NIV

“A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest— and poverty will come on you like a thief and scarcity like an armed man.”

INSIGHT

-Monday blues is a negative feeling that some people have at the end or beginning of the week. It marks the beginning of routine work or school that sometimes make people feel demotivated. Individuals may feel discouraged to perform optimally due to job dissatisfaction, stress and other limiting factors. Monday blues is one of the reasons why some people may prefer to sleep more than the expected time. Others are just lazy and given the chance, they can sleep the entire day. Proverbs 10:4 says that, “He who has a slack hand becomes poor, but the hand of the diligent makes rich.” Excessive sleep according to the Bible is a catalyst to poverty. Excessive sleep can also be applied in relation to family, spiritual life, career, education, purpose, talent and gifting etc, which causes paralysis, poverty, delay, and eventually death.

PRAYER

Heavenly Father You are wonderful, You are marvelous, You are excellent, You are good and perfect in all Your ways. We thank You for enabling us to see this day in peace. We praise You for the far that You have brought us and for the far that You are taking us. You are our God in whom we put our trust. We are very sorry for the many times we have mismanaged time. We apologize for oversleeping in the various spheres of our lives, may You forgive us and guide us in the way that we should go. May You relieve us and all those who are faced with different challenges at work, school, home, church, government and different areas of operation. May You restore all the years that the locust has eaten, the swarming locust, crawling locust, consuming locust, and the chewing locust. May You grant us the wisdom and grace to enable us manage our time wisely. May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with us now and forevermore. Amen
