The enemy is at work, they are monitoring you. You should try to pray and bind everything spirit of slumber before you try to read. Stand while reading or don't be in a position that will facilitate sleep

You don't need to read a chapter at a go. Read one or two verses and meditate on it.

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 ed 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.

I rebuke you immediately . I don't want to start reasoning like the Iswap, Bokoharam, Taliban, Isis, Al-qaeda, Harkat-ul'Jihad al Islami, Katibat al-Imam al-bukhari etc.

Is that not better than to become a suicide bomber? The truth is that not every Muslim is terrorist but being a Muslim is a fertile soil to become a terrorist.

Try audiovisual materials. It makes it more interesting. You’ll understand the bigger picture before you dive into the details.

See one below for example.

The Bible Project is a very useful resource for an enriching and interesting scripture study.

The devil is at work with you. Pray for the Holy Spirit descend before you read the Bible. It's not an ordinary book.

Nothing spiritual, just make sure you sleep first before reading your Bible.

I asked so I can know why he's sleeping everytime he wants to read bible ...

Now that I know the church he attends ... He probably needs to switch to a more recognizable church...


Recognized by who? I'm sorry for people that think like you in the body of Christ.

Maybe it's because you find it comforting and relaxing.

It could also be that you simply don't find it engaging, or the Early Modern English makes consumption awkward. Maybe you should take a course, a real course, on the Bible. Or you could a Bible study group of people similar to you (similar lifestyle and interests).

Read daily devotional first before your Bible it will enable you to some extent not to feel sleepy and as you do with time the sleep will vanish each time you want to study your bible.

Have you ever googled Christian terrorists like the army of god and the likes?

Just because they are not media propagated doesn't mean they don't exist!

And there are more bloodshed and sword mentioned in the the Bible than the Qu'ran.

You still dey sleep when you read Bible.

Rebuke sleep spirit first!


Records of mediaeval era isn't same as an injunction. We are asked to love our enemies now, while Qur'an demands jihad from you.

It's okay. The Bible is a spiritual book. You have to be spiritually ready to read the bible.

Pray to God for focus and eat some kolanuts

Stop arguing what is obvious makes you boring. Qho in his right mind still argues that islam breeds terrorism? What's there to argue and equivocate and blah blah blah? If you are asked for examples of other faiths' terrorism now you will start mentioning medieval and antiquated and prehistoric references, always never a current incident. You should be tired by now honestly
