What does the Bible say about awakening from spiritual sleep?

In Ephesians 5:14, the Apostle Paul writes, 'Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.' This call to awaken emphasizes the necessity for believers to recognize their spiritual slumber and to respond to the life-giving power of Christ. Spiritually speaking, being 'asleep' can represent complacency or ignorance of one’s condition before God. Just as the physical resurrection of Christ gives hope, the spiritual awakening involves being made alive in Christ, transforming our hearts and minds to seek Him earnestly.
