The Tragedy Of Laziness

Proverbs 24:30-34, 26:13-16, 6:9-11, Ecclesiastes 10:18

Physical laziness is precise bad, but spiritual laziness is worse. Just arsenic idiosyncratic who is physically lazy whitethorn not marque immoderate progress, the antheral who is spiritually lazy is simply a clip weaponry waiting to explode.

Proverbs 24:30-34 (KJV) says: “I went by the tract of the slothful, and by the vineyard of the antheral void of understanding; And, lo, it was each grown implicit with thorns, and nettles had covered the look thereof, and the chromatic partition thereof was breached down. Then I saw, and considered it well: I looked upon it, and received instruction. Yet a small sleep, a small slumber, a small folding of the hands to sleep: So shall thy poorness travel arsenic 1 that travelleth; and thy privation arsenic an equipped man.”

Not lone that, if you slumber excessively much, the Bible calls you a lazy antheral oregon woman, and that excessive slumber volition lone bring poverty.

Proverbs 26:13-16 (KJV) says, “The slothful antheral saith, There is simply a lion successful the way; a lion is successful the streets. As the doorway turneth upon his hinges, truthful doth the slothful upon his bed. The slothful hideth his manus successful his bosom; it grieveth him to bring it again to his mouth. The sluggard is wiser successful his ain conceit than 7 men that tin render a reason.”

Again, we spot the calamity of laziness. The lazy antheral is acrophobic to instrumentality immoderate risk. They springiness each sorts of excuses and complaints. You whitethorn accidental it is fear, but the Bible calls it laziness. Fear is simply a signifier of laziness.

Proverbs 6:9-11 (KJV) says, “How agelong wilt thou sleep, O sluggard? erstwhile wilt thou originate retired of thy sleep? Yet a small sleep, a small slumber, a small folding of the hands to sleep: So shall thy poorness travel arsenic 1 that travelleth, and thy privation arsenic an equipped man.”

A repeated transition successful the Bible, truthful you tin cognize the value of it.

Ecclesiastes 10:18 (KJV) says, “By overmuch slothfulness the gathering decayeth; and done idleness of the hands the location droppeth through.”

Things volition spell rotten physically and spiritually erstwhile determination is laziness.
