- This isn't about comparing what you're able to get done with what others are able to get done, it's about being honest about whether you are being faithful with the time and abilities God has given you in this particular season, or whether you're squandering them. I think we tend to know the difference! God has been revealing laziness and idleness in some of my habits and teaching me a lot, so in today's video we're asking, "What does the Bible say about laziness?" and taking a brutally honest look at the answer. I pray this video encourages you to examine your own heart before the Lord and gives you a little discipline motivation! 🤍

My name is Kaci Nicole and here on my channel, you'll find Bible study and Christian lifestyle videos. My prayer for this space is that you would walk away encouraged in your faith journey, equipped to study God's Word, and inspired to grow continually in the likeness of Jesus.
kaci nicole, what does the Bible say about laziness, idleness meaning, christian motivation, how to stop being lazy, discipline, exiting my lazy girl era
“For I fear that perhaps when I come I may find you not as I wish and that you may find me not as you wish - that perhaps there may be quarreling, jealousy, anger, hostility, slander, gossip, conceit, and disorder.” | 2 Corinthians 12:20

In addition to what I already shared in the video, another habit I’m focusing on is a tried and true one: Bible before phone in the mornings! Share yours down in the comments! 🤍
I’m trying to spend more time with the Lord but don’t have time. Thanks for sharing! Praying for baby girl.
I truly appreciate your content Kaci, that video is once again a timely word for me as I have been convicted of that few weeks back. Thank you for being an encouragement. I owe you a big cake 🙃 and pray you will have a safe delivery when the day comes and will continue to motivate yourself to do what needs to be done 🥰
@@priscillia354 thank you so much for your prayers 😊 I'm so glad this video was timely for you 🙏🏼
@@priscillia354 She’s so inspiring!
One habit I want to work on is Bible and prayer time before using my phone in the morning.
SO good 🙌🏼
Same here ! A lot of blessings with the follow up of your habit :-)
@@Shinymarja thank you, you as well :)
I always fin it very hard, I live in different countries than both my parents, therefore, 3 different time zones, and I always want to check if everything was ok with them during my night time, so I check ONLY my parents messages and then I do my devocional and prayer time before Instagram/TikTok and all the others. That's how I manage it
Same! I spend way too much time scrolling before spending time with God and reading my Bible. I’m glad I found your channel. It is encouraging, inspiring and motivational.
habit i can adopt: properly winding down to sleep , and early so that i can wake up well rested
Thank you for this video! My first step I would like to take towards discipline is NOT clicking the snooze button in the morning. Pray for me 🤍
Kaci, please do a video on the topic of mental illness, medication, therapy, and what the Bible says about it all, including whether to use psychology to heal or just rely on Jesus, or both.
Please, a lot of us would really appreciate it.
Rev 18 23 says the world is deceived by pharmakiea have u tried deliverance with God alone ..Bible only mentions demons with it
I’m not Christian or religious however I find so much value from your videos and there is a lot of good guidance and values to be taken from the Bible. 🙌🏽
You make a lot of good points. Just want to add that God also values and works in silence and stillness. This culture is so focused on productivity but if it comes at the expense of a deep relationship with God, then what is the real value ? I spend a lot of time in stillness (not on the phone ) and feel God and can hear him better. We have to make sure that we aren’t confusing pushing productivity as more valuable then deep time in His presence. And knowing our worth outside of anything we produce. We are worthy because he made us. Love your videos 💚
I didn't enjoy hearing this however it was needed on my life to hear this! Please pray for me. I need to get up and get moving and have a better view on my day than not wanting to start it. This is the day that the Lord has made. I want to rejoice and be glad in it ❤ thank you for allowing God to use you
Personally, waking up and sleeping at the designated time I have set will really shift the trajectory of my walk so far.
Yes I've found those things are huge too!
Not me being called out 😭😂 thank you so much for this video. All you described as being lazy is me, I keep pushing everything away sleeping during the day instead of doing chores, and making it seem as I'm resting but nope it's laziness. I truly need to work on it and reading my bible more. I kept covering my laziness as if I do alot everyday 😭
Gods great timing on this video, thank you! Been so Lazy going through Menopause . Trying to find the Dr,right diet, right exercise routine, right everything that I forget who is the source of everything! 🙏
Thank you Father for your Grace & Mercy everyday.
Amen!
I'm 37 weeks pregnant & I've been struggling eith laziness v. Rest!
Perfectly timed video! Ill also be praying you can have the birth you desire with your daughter! 🙏🏿🩷♡✨
Still feels so wild to see the word "daughter" 🥲 and thank you so much, it means more than you know! 🙏🏼
I definitely need to be more disciplined in my wake-up and bedtime routines, washing my face regularly, making the bed, blocks of time for work (since I wfh and can control my own schedule). Whew, Father I’m sorry…and help.😣
This video has inspired me a lot to pick up myself because I tend to fall into the comfort of laziness to avoid the outside world. I am a woman with autism and the world is always overly stimulating for me and I get so mentally exhausted. But I've used this as an excuse to procrastinate and be lazy and not do the things that God wants me to do. And I know it at all times in the back of my mind but my hard time with the outside world keeps me from flowing and moving forward and working on the things that matter. This video really straightened me out. Even my posture changed as I was watching this. I have to take this very seriously. May God help me have the discipline from here on to move forward with energy and enthusiasm. I cannot allow being on the autism spectrum debilitate me this much. I know my issue is a clinical neurodivergent condition but I know in my heart that Jesus Christ has power over any condition and I should not make excuses. Thank you so much for this. All your videos really help me more than I can express. 🙏💖
Discipline is everything.
Also, a big 'Hello' 👋 & God bless to Kaci & everyone watching this video 📹 from Stoke-on-Trent in Staffordshire, England. 🏴
I'm in England too.
Not me being scared to watch this 😅
I second this...😅
Not me being feeling the same way to make it 🤪
Thank you Kaci for this. I'm currently job-seeking after finishing my degree last year, and so far I have been met with hundreds of rejections, even for internships in my field. I'm praying to the Lord to open paths, and I will work as though unto Him and help others too. I appreciate any prayer for me. Thank you. The Lord has helped me in other areas so I have to believe He is helping me with this.
I’ve definitely struggled with laziness, especially in the difference with resting after working. I’m at part-time for the moment but struggle with fear and doubt of what more I can do to improve myself and continue in working towards a steady job. I’ve had God tell me this time and time again to really analyze myself with His help, and I do feel shame that I can’t get myself out of this loop😔but I’m not gonna give up because I know that I need to rely on His support and to help guide my heart in the right direction for His Will for me. So I pray for baby steps, and I hope to dig deep down and keep moving forward with God’s help. I’d love to hear any good advice as well from you and others on this matter, if possible. Thanks again Kaci, God bless you all!🤗🙌🏻
Thank you so much for posting this video. I have always taken so much joy and fulfillment from my daily chores in the home, and my value as a home maker. Lately I just havent been doing all the things Im capable of. I've laid in bed tossing, bored. I scroll too long. Basically all the things that we do as humans that shushes the holy spirit in us. I needed this reminder to show me the value of the little things we do each day, and what a difference those little things make in our daily lives. Much love!
I am asking God to help me with becoming more disciplined and developing a routine of spending time read God's word and prayer them workout for at least 30 min.
Laziness is also a violation of one of the seven deadly sins SLOTH. The seven deadly sins are pride, greed, wrath, envy, lust, gluttony, and sloth.
That's a good point!
@@kacinicole Thank you and your feedback is much appreciated. The importance of God in our lives should never be undervalued but regretfully that’s far too common nowadays. I pray for those who don’t know God’s love or for those who have lost their way. My heart breaks for all Jewish people who are suffering from these evil protests that are brewing and being allowed to manifest across this country and the world.
Thank you❤
@@LoveandMisses You’re welcome.☺️
Are you saying laziness is a sin, I don't see it in there, the word leaves in this does not even show up in the Bible hello
Beautiful teaching!!!Disciplining myself in cooking the best meal.Praise Jesus Thank You Jesus Thank You Holy Spirit. God bless you abundantly much love❤
Oooh I'm sure that's giong to be so yummy! May He bless you as well! 🤍
Congratulations on being pregnant! I just found out last weekend that I am pregnant as well and am now almost 6 weeks along. Thank you, Lord.
Wow. This is me. I feel guilty I'm not doing enough. I work full time, and I take care of love my daughter. I never looked at it as idleness. I need to do better, get more things done,etc.
Thank you for sharing.
I needed this! I have been praying daily for God to help me with my motivation and pull me out of my lazy funk.
The second video that’s popped up on my feed on this topic after reading Genesis 2-2:3 😳😊🙌💛
Thanks Kaci! So illuminating when you shared how laziness can bring us into a state of anxiety/depression and how when we’re diligent, we feel better. I think this is so true and this video definitely gave me some food for thought. Praise God for the wisdom He is giving you through His Word❣️
You callin me out on closing the kitchen! 😅😂❤👍
Wow! I am currently pregnant, and I have been feeling convicted of this! Thank you for sharing and encouraging! ❤
Thank you so much for encouraging me! God bless you.
I have fallen behind in diligence so much because of seasons when I was struggling with anxiety or other things coming against me to discourage me and now I have to renew myself out of all the lazy habits I've taught myself. I'm so appreciative for your help...all your videos help me so much to pick myself up again and catapult back to where I need to be. Thank you.
Ooof 😖 this one hurt but was so needed. Thanks Kaci!
Idleness is another word for it. Also the Bible speaks of working with our hands.
I hadn’t 😢 realized it was sin. I think I was calling it relaxing. God wants us to rest after doing whatever tasks He calls us to do. Jamie
I'm so glad God showed me your channel. Struggling to stand with a divorce marriage and praying to Jesus answers and concerns for my two year old where I want him to know Jesus and order what marriage stands for. Now, a Christian woman wants to meet up for a coffee date.. I am nervous because I want what God wants for me. Is this pruning time? I've been praying for order his way. God bless❤NZ
To read the Bible and Pray, to finish what i have started.
Wow. I've really been struggling lately with being so lazy, that I've noticed. Thank you so much for this ❤️
This was beautiful, thank you. I love you my sister in Christ may the Lord continue to bring fruitfulness to your household!,,
Thank you for this one Kaci 💗 🙌
I'm so glad you liked it 🤍
I definitely need to work on snoozing my alarm and having a night time routine
Need to work on this! Thanks for the helpful video. Hoping to make the habit "Word before world" as you spoke about. Starting my day with God vs on my phone.
Love this Kaci! Got up and did my chores.❤
Aw praise God!
I don't consider being lazy I always find something to do like self care and journaling and try not to forgot things and I do need to add Bible in my routine
Thank you Kaci! This was so helpful and I felt convicted I’m 34 weeks pregnant with a toddlers it hasn’t been easy to discern if I’m tired or just lazy but now i know . I wasn’t aware how bad laziness is. I‘m going to change some things now.
Also Congratulations 🎊 to your Baby Girl. I‘m hoping too for a Vbac this time you‘re not alone i will pray for you. God bless you and your family.
First Thank you for your videos, I learned from you. This is funny, I just prayed about how i feel when I am not in God's word every day. I am not a nice person if i am not in the word. This helps me to understand why I am feeling the way I am. So thank you.
Thanks for your video 💓
I am learning to pray to God
Hi Kaci! I recently found your channel. I absolutely love your Bible Study with me videos. Will you be making more of those? I finished Ruth and Jonah and am now about to start Esther. I love the way you lay out the info and feel you have lots of wisdom to share. The videos are perfect for my morning studies to take notes on in my notebook. Yah bless you!
Praying for yoy
I want to work on Bible before phone as well. And I try to do something else instead of scrolling on my phone for hours. I do my bracelet repair for my once broken elastic bracelet.
Amo tus videos! son tan auténticos. Siempre que me estoy alejando de Dios, me vuelven a acercar con tanta gentileza. Gracias por darnos esperanza!
Thank You!!
Depression will do that to anyone who might find themselves suffering
" Laziness ."
Some who even aren't pregnant but along with anxiety, lack of sleep ,mental illness or physical illness as well could be effected negatively.
Many suffer with a lack of genuine support.❤
He knows our hearts, circumstances and Jehovah is reasonable.
Definitely! That's why I felt it was important to add a disclaimer that this video isn't addressing when circumstances outside of our control affect our capacity. The Lord truly sees and knows, and it isn't about how much we get done but simply faithfulness with what capacity He has given us 🙏🏼
@@kacinicole
Thank You
Congratulations on baby # 2 😇🩵🙏
This is a very beautiful video thank you so much sister. I just want to say we can all learn from Jesus he was not lazy when he was on earth he used his time wisely 😊
Yes! Wise use of time is really the heart of it 🤍
I won’t say it’s laziness but don’t forget some people have adhd which makes it hard to focus on things
Brutally honest, take your opinions and have a good day
Hey Kaci, really nice video ! I was wondering if I could help you with Best Quality Editing in your videos better than your Editor with good pricing and also make a highly engaging Thumbnail which will help your videos to reach to a wider audience ? Pls let me know what do you think ?
FOR WOMEN LIKE MARTHA, THE WOMEN LIKE MARY ARE ALWAYS LAZY.
Now as they went on their way, Jesus entered a village. And a woman named Martha welcomed him into her house. And she had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord's feet and listened to his teaching. But Martha was distracted with much serving. And she went up to him and said, “Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Tell her then to help me.” But the Lord answered her, “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things, but one thing is necessary. Mary has chosen the good portion, which will not be taken away from her.” (Luke 10:38-42 ESV)
The snoozing in the mornings is a bad habit of mine and has been for years. Ive actually done a snooze fast for lent several times and that got rid of the habit for a few years. The last couple of years my mental health has caused insomnia which brought back the snoozing in the mornings. I'm working on breaking the bad snoozing habit, as it actually makes the insomnia worse too...
Read my bible before phone and praying more through out the day. Kaci can you send me the bible plan that you use. Thank you!!
It really doesn't matter I guess what he died on. But the Dead Sea scrolls said he was hung tree or you can call at stake
Hi Kaci, thank you for this video! I feel like it really spoke to me :) One habit that I would like to change is taking prolonged nap times in the evening. I usually take 1.5 - 2h naps and wake up feeling bad about having wasted time when I could be doing other productive things such as cleaning my room/spending time with God. I hope to shorten my nap time to a maximum of 1h for a start!!
By the way, I would like to also find out more, where in the bible does it possibly indicate that laziness is a sin? Understand that work is good but I would like to also be convicted by the Word that laziness is a sin. Open to comments/help by any viewers too! Thanks!!
Besides, they get into the habit of being idle and going about from house to house. And not only do they become idlers, but also busybodies who talk nonsense, saying things they ought not to. TIMOTHY 5:13
Dear Lord, please help give me the strength to stay off social media like fb and Instagram, please lead my hands to be productive, developing my artistic gifts, reading scripture and spending time with God through prayer, in Jesus name, Amen 🙏💓✝️
Cut off social media at a certain time
God and Lord is pagan names. If you want to speak God say Aluah. Allure's name is yahuwah. Yahusha or Yshua died on a tree for a stake. Not a cross. All this is from the Dead Sea scrolls
I believe He died on a cross, but even so; what if He didn't? It doesn't matter, anyway. He died for my/our sins! That is what is important! NOT A exact Hebrew/English name! NOT the shape of the wood cross/stake/tree He died on!!! Focus on the ESSENTIALS!!!
🐑 ✝️🕊️
Actually, God and Lord are titles that we (as Christians, use for the Father or the Son) in English. I wouldn't call a title Pagan.
Aluah, Allure? 🤔
@@Disciple-ofChrist eloah
I love everybody I just when everybody go to heaven. In the beginning was the word and the word was with aluah and the word was aluah. I'm just looking out
People say I'm lazy, 🦥 but it takes up all my time, studying the Bible, let me ask you something is laziness a sin , scripture please thank you❓ why are you using a word laziness is not in the Bible, I cannot find it if you can show me ❓
Laziness creates sin 🤔 Israel was in the wilderness for 40 years, is that laziness
There's no law in the Old testament about laziness, it could be considered vile, I can't even law is not a stoning to to death sin, do you believe that Jesus created everything with God only ❓
