So I am faced with this problem of feeling sleepy anytime I picked up the bible to read, whether it's the hardcopy or the downloaded ones in my phone, I feel sleepy when i want to read it. But I can read other voluminous books/materials from cover to cover without blinking my eyes talkless of sleeping.

I am so disturbed about this, I need help please.



The devil(s) around your life don't want you to discover your real self(The you-in-you), so they are at work because they monitor you always. Tell your pastor to pray and cancel all evil programs against you knowing/understanding God better. Then always repeat that pastor's prayer before you start studying your Bible. Pick an old testament book and start from chapter one. All will be history soon

There is nothing wrong with you the Bible slay every one because it has power

What is entering your spirit is the word of God

Just keep reading one sentence and think about it and let it sink in till you become strong to carry many in you

Then you will become awake.

You're supposed to read it first thing in the morning when you just woke up.

Or are you telling me you also fall asleep if you try reading it in the morning too?

It is simply because you have no strong reason why you want to read it, no aim, no research mindset, it is either you just pick up your Bible to fulfill reading of Bible sake nothing else, try having something in mind you really need to learn or know about the Bible.......
I've been in that shoe ones when i got no reason to read the Bible it always end up in sluggish and dull ending..... There's nothing like demonic force stoping you, you are restricting yourself.

First go to chapters in bible that are just like adventure story, like Moses, ..... about Mountain Sinai, Red sea, .......Elijah, ....mount Horeb, ........ Jesus miracles he performed etc.

The areas and locations they mentioned in the bible, try to know the exact places in modern day through goggles ( eg. modern day Joppa is Spain, where ark of Noah ended Ararat is today turkey etc) and relate happenings thr now to olden day u read in bible.


If u try it, u will soon develop habit of reading bible, from there, u can move to areas that are not adventure or miracles

That is because the Bible is not an ordinary book, it is loaded with information that makes you free in life.

Your captor, Satan the devil ND his agents does not want you to be free, so, they hinder you from seeing the truth.... John 8:32

the moment you realize how much your life as a Christian depends on the Word, it will come alive in your spirit. The ones you read will stick to your spirit and come handy when needed.

Thank God there's still a desire to pick up the Bible. Whether soft or hard copy. They're believers without any desire to pick up the Bible again

It happens because d bible is d Spiritual book( the word of God) and such d devil will try to make u not to read it.
Here is my advice:
1.Are u born again n filled with d Holy Spirit? If yes, then u can ask d Holy Spirit to help you.
2. U can change ur posture because sometimes posture matters.
3. Stand up and worship God intently b4 u read d bible. U can do dt by playing worship songs(u worship along while d song is playing) b4 u read d bible. I will recommend some gospel artists to light up ur spirit like "Victoria Orenze, Theophilus Sunday, Sinach etc)
4. Sometimes, listen to messages either audio or video while u read d bible.
5.What is ur prayer life like!

Last two weeks, I posted on my Prayer WhatsApp group what makes me pray for many hours( like I have prayed 8 hours non-stop, 10 hours non-stop, 12 hours non-stop n 12:30 hours non-stop) to encourage some members of d group who struggled to spend much time in prayer to be able to pray more.
I posted all of these, because I struggled to pray for long until I found d secret.

It is my prayer dt God will give u d strength to study His word n pray.

If you always sleep while reading your Bible, you must avoid sitting or lying down.

It's not going to be easy. These are feelings you must fight and endure as a Christian. Same with the urge for sexual gratification.
Continue in prayer, deny yourself that sleep. That is how you share in the sufferings of Christ
