Also: Unconsciousness, Deep sleep state, In a coma, Unresponsive

What it means

Being spiritually numb, unobservant or disconnected from one's faith; helplessness; spiritual slumber; being spiritually unresponsive.

A need to spiritually awaken.

God hath given them the spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear. Slumber in Scripture is a condition of perception, not of the body.

✦ When it is positive

  • Being woken from the coma within the dream, representing God's mercy in rousing the dreamer

⚠ When it is a warning

  • Spiritual slumber
  • Being spiritually dormant

How to tell the difference

Distinguish COMA (prolonged unresponsiveness, a settled condition) from FALLING ASLEEP IN A DREAM (complacency at a particular moment). Note whether anyone is attending the dreamer and whether they wake.
