Now lets get started. Passage Number 1. The first verse on the subject
of Sleep is Psalm chapter 4, verse 8. It says: In peace I will both lay myself down and sleep,
for you alone, Yahweh, make me live in safety. Passage Number 2. The second verse in our study
of Sleep is found in Psalm chapter 127, verses 1 through 2. It says:
A Song of Ascents. By Solomon. Unless Yahweh builds the house, they who build it labor in vain.
Unless Yahweh watches over the city, the watchman guards it in vain. It is vain for you to rise up
early, to stay up late, eating the bread of toil, for he gives sleep to his loved ones.
Passage Number 3. For our third verse, we turn in our Bible to Psalm chapter 121,
verses 2 through 6. It reads: My help comes from Yahweh, who made
heaven and earth. He will not allow your foot to be moved. He who keeps you will not slumber.
Behold, he who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. Yahweh is your keeper.
Yahweh is your shade on your right hand. The sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night.
Passage Number 4. This is from Romans chapter 13, verses 11 through 14. The scripture says:
Do this, knowing the time, that it is already time for you to awaken out of sleep,
for salvation is now nearer to us than when we first believed.
The night is far gone, and the day is near. Let’s therefore throw off the deeds of darkness,
and let’s put on the armor of light. Let’s walk properly, as in the day; not in reveling
and drunkenness, not in sexual promiscuity and lustful acts, and not in strife and jealousy.
But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, for its lusts.
Passage Number 5. The fifth verse is from John chapter 11, verses 11 through 14. The Bible says:
He said these things, and after that, he said to them, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep,
but I am going so that I may awake him out of sleep.” The disciples therefore said, “Lord,
if he has fallen asleep, he will recover.” Now Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought
that he spoke of taking rest in sleep. So Jesus said to them plainly then, “Lazarus is dead.

Passage Number 6 is from First Thessalonians chapter 5, verses 1 through 11. It says:
But concerning the times and the seasons, brothers, you have no need that anything
be written to you. For you yourselves know well that the day of the Lord comes like a thief in
the night. For when they are saying, “Peace and safety,” then sudden destruction will come on
them, like birth pains on a pregnant woman. Then they will in no way escape. But you, brothers,
aren’t in darkness, that the day should overtake you like a thief.
You are all children of light and children of the day. We don’t belong to the night, nor to
darkness, so then let’s not sleep, as the rest do, but let’s watch and be sober. For those who sleep,
sleep in the night; and those who are drunk are drunk in the night. But since we belong to the
day, let’s be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and for a helmet, the hope
of salvation. For God didn’t appoint us to wrath, but to the obtaining of salvation through our Lord
Jesus Christ, who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.
Therefore exhort one another, and build each other up, even as you also do.
Passage Number 7. The seventh verse is found in Proverbs chapter 3,
verses 21 through 25. The Bible says: My son, let them not depart from your eyes.
Keep sound wisdom and discretion, so they will be life to your soul,
and grace for your neck. Then you shall walk in your way securely. Your foot won’t stumble.
When you lie down, you will not be afraid. Yes, you will lie down, and your sleep will be sweet.
Don’t be afraid of sudden fear, neither of the desolation of the wicked, when it comes; .
Passage Number 8. The eighth verse on the subject of Sleep is from Psalm chapter 3,
verses 3 through 6. It reads: But you, Yahweh, are a shield around me,
my glory, and the one who lifts up my head. I cry to Yahweh with my voice, and he answers me
out of his holy hill. Selah. I laid myself down and slept. I awakened, for Yahweh sustains me. I
will not be afraid of tens of thousands of people who have set themselves against me on every side.
Passage Number 9. Our ninth verse is from Acts chapter 20,
verses 7 through 12. The passage states: On the first day of the week,
when the disciples were gathered together to break bread, Paul talked with them,
intending to depart on the next day; and continued his speech until midnight.
There were many lights in the upper room where we were gathered together. A certain young man
named Eutychus sat in the window, weighed down with deep sleep. As Paul spoke still longer,
being weighed down by his sleep, he fell down from the third floor and was taken up dead.
Paul went down and fell upon him, and embracing him said, “Don’t be troubled, for his life is in
him.” When he had gone up, had broken bread and eaten, and had talked with them a long while,
even until break of day, he departed. They brought the boy in alive, and were greatly comforted.
Passage Number 10. Our tenth and final verse on the subject of Sleep is from Matthew chapter 11,
verses 28 through 30. It says: “Come to me, all you who labor
and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me,
for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you will find rest for your souls.
For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” This concludes our Bible study on the topic of Sleep.
