THIS IS NO TIME TO SLEEP

TEXT: Jonah 1:5-7
5 All the sailors were afraid and each cried out to his own god. And they threw the cargo into the sea to lighten the ship. But Jonah had gone below deck, where he lay down and fell into a deep sleep. 6 The captain went to him and said, “HOW CAN YOU SLEEP? Get up and call on your god! Maybe he will take notice of us so that we will not perish.”

TODAY'S POST: In the midst of devastation and disaster; Jonah was sound asleep. The captain of the ship went to wake and asked him how he could sleep at a time like that. It is amazing how some people can be oblivious to what is going on around them, in the natural, but also spiritually. Take for example when Jesus' moment had come he depended on his disciple to watch and pray, but in that hour which was most crucial they couldn't even stay awake. They didn't even know the time/hour had come. We have to be careful to be vigilant and fully awake today because saints of God we are truly living in critical times. Time is winding up and the hour is at had. Many souls are lost--so we must stay awake, sound the alarm and intercede on their behalf. No man aboard this ship should be asleep! The bible says in Romans 13:11 See then that the time has come for you to be awake from sleep: for now is your salvation nearer than when you first had faith. It is HIGH TIME TO WAKE OUT OF SLEEP. Get up, shake your selves and get busy about God's business.
