One of the battles that most believers must occasionally fight is our tendency to drift. We can slip into neutral in our spiritual journey. We get distracted, fail to prioritize our personal relationship with Christ, and give the best of ourselves to lesser things. Sometimes, when we drift too far, we can actually fall into spiritual slumber. When we close our spiritual eyes, we fail to see the glories of God and the dangers of the devil. Jesus wanted His followers about this, and He spoke in a way that conveys He was certain is was already happening to some. What was His counsel to these people who are spiritually asleep? He told them to wake up and recognize that spiritual slumber can become a disaster.
