Sloth (Baal-Peor / Belphegor )
Why Second? Sloth, as spiritual or physical apathy, hinders active pursuit of virtue (Romans 12:11: “Do not be slothful in zeal”). Addressing sloth early builds discipline, which is essential for tackling other sins. If one remains idle, efforts to fast from lust or wrath may lack follow-through.
Fasting Strategy: Counter sloth with diligence, like daily prayer, exercise, or completing delayed tasks (Colossians 3:23). For example, commit to 10 minutes of Scripture reading daily.
Why It Helps: Discipline from overcoming sloth provides the energy and commitment needed for subsequent battles.

Through laziness, the rafters sag;
because of idle hands, the house leaks.
