BIBLE PASSAGE: Proverbs 6:9-11 KJV (RCCG Sunday School STUDENT Manual 11 July 2021)

RCCG Sunday School Student Manual 11 July 2021 – Lesson 45

INTRODUCTION: Sleep health is a phenomenon that captures the nature of sleep in humans, the associated disorders and remedies. In this context, it is important to have the knowledge of how much or how well we sleep and deal with any lifestyle habits that run contrary to proper sleeping habits. We shall therefore consider the stages and spectrum of sleep as well as some sleep disorders in this study.

LESSON OUTLINES
Stages And Spectrum of Sleep
Sleep Disorders

1. STAGES AND SPECTRUM OF SLEEP
Sleep can be in stages. It starts from slumbering or dozing (Matthew 25:1-5). Sleep (Proverbs 3:24), Deep sleep (Genesis 2:21-23; Job 4:13), sleep of death or Coma (Psalm 13:3; Jeremiah 51:57), Death (John 1:11-14).

Physically, the amount of sleep you need varies significantly over the course of your lifetime. It depends on your age and activity-level as well as your general health and lifestyle habits. However, on a sleep spectrum (scale), one can have lack/shortage of sleep (Daniel 6:18), moderate sleep (Ecclesiastes 6:12) or excessive sleep (Acts 20:9). If one does not sleep moderately, it could be as a result of a lifestyle habit (Proverbs 6:9-10;19:15; 20:13) or sleep disorder.

2. SLEEP DISORDERS
Sleep disorder varies. Insomnia’ is difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep, even when a person has the chance to do so. Sleep deprivation occurs when an individual gets less sleep than they need to feel awake and alert. Ongoing lack of sleep can lead to excessive daytime sleepiness, emotional difficulties, poor job performance, obesity, risk of heart disease (stroke) and a lowered perception of quality of life.

Oversleeping is called hypersomnia or “long sleeping”. People with hypersomnia might require as many as 10 to 12 hours of sleep per night to feel their best. But Oversleeping has been linked to a host of medical problems, including diabetes, heart disease, and increased risk of death.

Sleep apnea is a temporary cessation of breathing during sleep. It is a potentially serious sleep disorder in which breathing repeatedly stops and starts. If you snore loudly and feel tired even after a full night’s sleep, you might have sleep apnea.

Sleep paralysis occurs when your mind is conscious but you are unable to move your body especially when you are in the process of waking up.

Sleep-walking or talking loud while sleeping is another sleep challenge especially in adults. Anyone with sleep challenge should pray, seek professional counsel and change his/her lifestyle habits.

CONCLUSION: Like in every other area of life, sleep should also be in moderation.

RCCG Sunday School HYMN 11th July 2021 – Lesson 45

O Sunday School, on the Lord’s day,
O how I love Thee well,
I am happy, it makes me glad
To rejoice at Thy birth.

O Sunday School, on the Lord’s day,
Thy friendship suits me well,
Both young and old will sing Thy song,
We long for Sunday School.

O Sunday School, on the Lord’s day,
Christ was Thy first teacher,
The Holy Spirit, great teacher,
Does manifest in thee.

O Sunday School, on the Lord’s day,
This testimony is sure,
That God, the Father Almighty,
Poured His blessing on Thee.

O Sunday School, on the Lord’s day,
Though the sun be so bright,
Or if the clouds black with rain,
I’ll be in Sunday School.

O Sunday School, on the Lord’s day,
I rejoice to see Thee,
Will thou pass over me today?
Without my being blest?
