Yes!! I have a toddler and a 19 yr old son & im so tired after making sure they are okay❣️😆 I’m healing from an abusive relationship and set free from verbally abusive mother🙏🏻 I know I want to be set free and Only Jesus is healing my mind and body
1. The cause of laziness is a craving for comfort 2. The cost of laziness is a wasted life 3. The cure for laziness is discipline despite difficulty (you only grow when you're uncomfortable). Thank you for this message! This is such a needed reminder. Also, love the suggestion to put your alarm opposite the room, with your bible on top.
@@a.sydney5036Its the best decision you should make. A tip I have is to get a Bible I use the KJV and then get the “Logos” Bible app blue icon. You can easily look up meanings of words that you dont understand. That is if you read or are planning to read the KJV
This really moved me... I'm so sick of living self absorbed and missing my Godly purpose that it's pathetic. 35 years old with nothing to show for it so far. I was supposed to be much further along my road had i taken all of this seriously and not have been so "lazy busy". I have to tie my flesh to the alter and let God have his way with me. It is time for Godly discipline in my life. I'm sick of pursuing comforts and reaping zero prosperity. God help me, i am a waste on my own 🙏
I'll be completely honest... this sermon was very hard for me to hear. I know I struggle with laziness, and starting things I don't finish, so it really called me out and it was uncomfortable to sit and listen, but I did. I need this, thank you/
But did you not know these things about yourself already? My struggle is not that I don't know that it's an issue. It's that I live in a constant cycle of procrastination. Like debilitating procrastination. Everyday struggle.
I have once read words by Dieter F. Uchtdorf that said something like this "Often the answer to our prayer does not come while we're on our knees but while we're on our feet serving the Lord and serving those around us." I was in my University years when I read this word, I was joining a bunch of organization to keep me busy and learning something new. It was actually in these years, when I was busy doing something to learn, to meet new people, to find God that I was able to see better what God wants me to do. Not in comfort, not in going home early to relax and watch the newest TV series, but in discomfort of loongggg hours of meeting and labor that I was able to produce fruit.
@@AtticTapes14 The Lord does give us time to rest because there is a time and a purpose to everything under the sun as said in Ecclsiastes. However there is a difference between resting and laziness. Resting is to preserve energy to continue serving the Lord. Resting is not an excuse to be temporarily lazy because it is still sin. Even in a time of rest there needs to be discipline to set out quiet time for the Lord.
This is a sin we don’t talk about enough in church tbh when I’m sure most people struggle with it. I had to confess this sin today and I am moving forward
This was a refreshing and amazing preaching! I NEED to stop being lazy and get back into a disciplined lifestyle. Lord, help me value my time with you above all else!
this is so good... I totally need this because I'm so lazy this quarter with classes... I use the excuse "oh online classes are hard" but it doesn't matter, I need to try harder, I am not doing my best and am being lazy. Lord, please forigve me for my laziness... please please help me to work unto You and that all I do will bring glory to You...
I’m gonna bet that all of the thumbs down reacts on this, are lazy people who wasn’t ready to be called up from this. Amazing message. No great thing comes out of comfort zones!!
As a 60 year old guy supervising this generation I appreciate this message because it attacks the lies the enemy is using to render a whole generation inactive. Glad God led me here to clarify the issue. I have subscribed and saved and will keep sharing.
February 19,2024 Monday @7:41pm. I am Chantal. A 30 year old and this is me. A worthless, lazy, making excuses, staying in bed until 10 am, depress, anxiety, depending on others(mother), haven't got a job that I'm in for 7 months straight etc. I have endure and being through alot blaming the devil etc. Now I'm a single parent, unemployed etc. I accept this message. I am lazy. I accept all those discipline for those 30 years 6 months 1 week 4 days. I Repent, Rebuke, Renounce,Denounce, etc these spirit and that of pleasing The Flesh and that of comfort zone, depending on people especially my mom. I have wasted these years and I wish to start over as of now through Jesus Christ of Nazareth and Him Crucify. I am lazy, worthless, etc and I don't want it.
Love Ya Pastor. I got my own lovely church home but I love listening to this TH-cam page the other 6 days out of the week. P. S. The anger management one helped soo much when I was in great need. GOD IS GOOD.
Such an eye opener. All that I've been unable to achieve in life is as a result of my laziness. I've started so many things without finishing them. I pray that this message will live in my mind henceforth so as not to ever go back to those destructive habits 🙏 Thank you Pastor this message!
We buy snowblowers to clean short narrow driveways......then we buy gym memberships. ......we take elevators in every building we can instead of the stairs. .....then we buy gym memberships. ......we buy our wood split...cut in pieces..pay to have it delivered and piled up for us.....then we buy gym memberships. As church goers we preach against drinking...smoking...drugs...leave gluttony out of our judgements as we carry way to much weight. ...Lazy ness is not a desired quality of a professing christian...but it is everywhere in our churches. ...including the leaders.

Omg My revelation ...I’m not depressed I’m lazy! That’s even more scarier than believe in was depressed & suicidal all these years. Lord help me! This sermon is a GOD SEND ! Thank you!
Your comment 7 months ago. How are you are you being diligent? Disciplined? Be in prayer constantly constantly ask Jesus to be the center of your life of your day off your everything
Laziness is so me. I kept thinking that somehow God would change it and suddenly I wouldn’t be lazy anymore. This is so good. I hate hearing this but it’s something I needed to hear.
This was so needed for me. I have been talking to God about discipline and recently asked for him to place people in my life who I can witness being disciplined and doing it well so I can model after that. This message was an answered prayer and I am thankful God has opened my eyes to how I can grow in this area. Thank you for sharing this powerful, encouraging and challenging truth.
Should have been a Mechanical engineer by 2016, i failed and lied to everyone about it. It was not my fault. I lacked discipline and passion for putting in work and grinding. I choose comfort, here i am 27 with regrets. BUT GOD IS STILL GOOD

many times i'll say "I don't want to do it, BUT I WILL!!" it's when i realized the importance of doing a thing..........yeessss, i can be lazy and i've missed out on maaaannneeee opps... now, i'll do it, and on the other side of getting the job/activity done--it feels GOOD. i no longer desire to risk missing out on purpose due to laziness.
Honest. Thank you. My deals like that. Im so quick to tell myself all this hokum about "my anxiety" This is the spirutual aspect of MY laziness, as it relates to me as Ive found myself after years of basically doing what i wanted. My anxiety, is the product of desiring literally everything in my life to literally always be easier than it was before. I get anxious when i dont understand the literal every single step of an overall large process so for whatever reason. Fear of being taken advantage of..or perhaps fear there wont be any corners i can cut...and yep. Its laziness. Even WORSE than the lack of growth. I utilize laziness in order to justify my pride and arrogance. When im proud and out of touch with God (lets just consider that as being every moment until this comment and then immediately after) An overall private subconscious logical method might sound like: Somebody hasnt thought this plan through. Ill find not only where theyve overlooked an easier or more "efficient" way, but ill vocalize the critique with a tone that says "youre doing this really poorly, and im speaking in a soft tone while critiquing you, meaning you shouldnt bother making me actually do more work to.show you" This is how laziness and pride eat me from the inside out. Then i get to complain and moan about having "anxiety" Im just a lazy controlling arrogant man. Ive had alot of the things i think i was entitled withheld from me recently by a God focused person who must of seen something in me i didnt.. And ill tell you what...the smarter and more creative and satisfied with yourself you are, the less easily you will even dare to consider your issue as laziness. Yes. If you read all this and hated it. Your lazy. Welcome to the club Trust Jesus!!
I get lazy because I get extremely productive that it burns me out, and when I rest I sometimes rest longer than needed 🤪 lol. I need to balance better.
Im the same. Minus a stimulant habit thats killing me. I get the sentiment. My struggle right now is pride and arrogance. Ill deal with laziness when i can detox for a month.
Laziness. Costs. Me. Progress. Laziness costs me my purpose. 🥺😭 I think this sermon is hard for me to hear because I do believe there has been an evil decree spoken over me at some point in the past that I would waste my life- but it’s not what I want. I am on the verge of tears please pray for me. ❤
I love his approach. Relatable and glorifies God. Im working on arrogance and pride in my life, his sermons on it are welcoming, relatable and biblical. God bless
This was a great message! Very convicting. It's actually pretty sad that we have to be told to read our Word in the morning. Jesus has paid the ultimate price for us and is continually interceding for us, and yet we can't even set aside 30 min to spend time with him. It's crazy that we have to be GIVEN advice.
know some people that they are so lazy, they don't even want to feed themselves and have everyone doing almost everything for them and it's all FREE SERVICES. Call themselves believers in Christ. Been working since 12 1/2 babysitting 5 cousins for 50 cents an hour and worked hard all my life. My children had a work ethic since 13. Both successful. and still working hard. I fast one meal a day for over 2 years and pray... It's healthiest anyone can do physically, mentally and spiritual. It's crazy but I am going to order a small harp and somehow learn how to play. No musical inclinations but my way to do worship at home. I am a senior in 70s.
This is a very hard message for me to hear… one aspect I think he could’ve touched on as well is that it takes work to maintain relationships as well… laziness in that field is easy to fall into..
A great opportunity for growth? A job you hate. God will use the "unfulfilling" job to expose and change you (and me) from an entitled, comfort-driven person to one who serves Christ and others.
I'm currently studying (just started)for my Liscensure examination. I feel so down and frustrated that i don't know how to start. Thank you Lord for letting me hear this Sermon. I am blessed i was able to find out my problem, how lazy I am. I keep doing busy lazy, and had a lot of excuses. May God bless each one of us. May God gives us guidance, wisdom and discipline. Before this year ends i will go back in to this comment, and declare in the Name of Jesus that I will be an Engineer.
Hello, today I have noticed my life is slipping away and I decided to just find a sermon about laziness. I was pulled in to watch this sermon, even though it was message from 5 years ago, WOW i broke down and i felt the message clearly. thank you God and thank you Jonathan for this amazing message. God bless!!!! Asking for prayers that in my days ahead this message will stay with me.
Work and career is the biggest area of attack from the enemy in my life and always has been- But no more! I am ready. I am ready to stop laziness and the devil definitely does try to convince me I’m “doing the wrong thing” whenever I start something that could yield fruit in my life. Please pray for me and send me your prayer requests too. ❤I don’t want to do the work of praying for you- so you should send me your prayers
Please pray for me I’m going through a time of disconnection with the Father and laziness is creeping up on me. I’m delaying all my work and I just need help.

Lazy busy is the equivalent of being skinny fat
Life changing!!
Real and funny this is a current struggle how funny when u think your so productive but your lazy busy Lord help me
"It says this has to be done, so I'll do it- and, so it does it". 🙏🌠
This was very helpful thank you!!
Thank you very much for this message 😔, it spoke volumes of truth to me
A good friend lead me to this tonight. This hit me right where I needed.
I love his approach. Relatable and glorifies God. Im working on arrogance and pride in my life, his sermons on it are welcoming, relatable and biblical.
God bless
Really need this. I've learnt so much. Thank God!
When you get a point from the name of a video!
Tnx, Porch!
Backing up alarm for 30 min.... 😲
Instead snoozing it for never ending 5 min...😴
Thanq pastor...
Dankie dit is presies hoe ek voel!!! So baie dankie!!! Luv it!!
How can I like this video more than once???
Sounds very similar to some symptoms of ADHD.
Needed this!
I’m lazy 😫
Pray for me to be more disciplined
This was a great message! Very convicting. It's actually pretty sad that we have to be told to read our Word in the morning. Jesus has paid the ultimate price for us and is continually interceding for us, and yet we can't even set aside 30 min to spend time with him. It's crazy that we have to be GIVEN advice.
know some people that they are so lazy, they don't even want to feed themselves and have everyone doing almost everything for them and it's all FREE SERVICES. Call themselves believers in Christ.
Been working since 12 1/2 babysitting 5 cousins for 50 cents an hour and worked hard all my life. My children had a work ethic since 13. Both successful. and still working hard.
I fast one meal a day for over 2 years and pray... It's healthiest anyone can do physically, mentally and spiritual.
It's crazy but I am going to order a small harp and somehow learn how to play. No musical inclinations but my way to do worship at home.
I am a senior in 70s.
My favorite sermon in a long time 🙌
Pastor this is an awesome eye-opening, strong message, so inspiring!!! God bless you!!!
Professional laziness needs professional discipline....
Where is this msg in years???
Totally TRANSFORMING Message!!!!Thanks
Amen. This is exactly what I needed. Praise be to the Lord!
This message was for me . Powerful and helpful ❤️
It's ironic I don't wish to see the bed of snow because I dislike winter, and the cold weather stuff like snow and ice. Rain is kinda ok.
This is a very hard message for me to hear… one aspect I think he could’ve touched on as well is that it takes work to maintain relationships as well… laziness in that field is easy to fall into..
When I click on a video that's for a Christian title and all I see is blocks of adverts the whole way thought....... See ya!
This one hurt bad, but it's needed, more direct preaching like this is needed! Thank you Pastor JP
Thank you for this enlightening message ✍️🔥🙌🏽
needed this! thank you so much for the word. Praise God
U are fighting a good fight JP God bless u in eternity
Working out is so fun ! Dont think it’s not please it is
This is straight truth
Lazy people are like sloths. They are an eye sore 😢
You're right 😁😀
I wasn’t expecting this level of straight honest preaching. I’m pleasantly surprised, thank you so much.
👏🏿👏🏿👌🏿👌🏿👌🏿 thank you
Heard no lies!
Yesssss this blessed me!!!!!!
I really need this. Thank you
A great opportunity for growth? A job you hate. God will use the "unfulfilling" job to expose and change you (and me) from an entitled, comfort-driven person to one who serves Christ and others.
amen
Surveying? Poll?
I'm currently studying (just started)for my Liscensure examination. I feel so down and frustrated that i don't know how to start. Thank you Lord for letting me hear this Sermon. I am blessed i was able to find out my problem, how lazy I am. I keep doing busy lazy, and had a lot of excuses.
May God bless each one of us. May God gives us guidance, wisdom and discipline.
Before this year ends i will go back in to this comment, and declare in the Name of Jesus that I will be an Engineer.
2024 watching that
Hello, today I have noticed my life is slipping away and I decided to just find a sermon about laziness. I was pulled in to watch this sermon, even though it was message from 5 years ago, WOW i broke down and i felt the message clearly. thank you God and thank you Jonathan for this amazing message. God bless!!!! Asking for prayers that in my days ahead this message will stay with me.
Man… this one spoke to me
Work and career is the biggest area of attack from the enemy in my life and always has been-
But no more! I am ready. I am ready to stop laziness and the devil definitely does try to convince me I’m “doing the wrong thing” whenever I start something that could yield fruit in my life.
Please pray for me and send me your prayer requests too.
❤I don’t want to do the work of praying for you- so you should send me your prayers
Please pray for me I’m going through a time of disconnection with the Father and laziness is creeping up on me. I’m delaying all my work and I just need help.
