The Bible warns against laziness, urging believers to be
diligent and actively serve the Lord (Romans 12:11). Idleness leaves us spiritually vulnerable and distracts us from our God-given purpose. Proverbs 18:9 states that laziness is destructive, highlighting the need for Christians to work purposefully in God’s Kingdom, just as they care for their families. We must avoid complacency and take action. If we find ourselves idle, we should pray for guidance and renewed passion to fulfill God’s calling while we have the opportunity.
