01. The Law
James was killed. Peter was next, to be executed tomorrow. That night, Peter was sleeping so soundly the angel had to strike him to wake him.
"Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains."
02. The Mechanics
The mechanic is Faith in Sovereignty. Peter knew Jesus promised he'd die old. So he knew he wouldn't die that night. Promise created sleep. Rest defies crisis logic.
03. The Application
What keeps you awake? Fear? Peter slept on death row. If you have a promise, nothing can touch you prematurely. Sleep knowing your life is in His hands, not Herod's.
