Discord Bot. bot.loop.create_task(background_task()) don't work

I have this code:

import asyncio
import random

from discord.ext import commands

bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix='.')

a=['Hello','Hi','Hello World']

async def background_task():
    time = 5 # 86400
    await asyncio.sleep(time)
    w = random.choice(a)
    q = "".join(w)
    message = q
    await bot.get_channel(id_channel).send(message)

async def on_ready():
    print('Bot logged as {}'.format(bot.user))


async def on_message(ctx):
    pass

bot.loop.create_task(background_task())
token = 'token'
bot.run(token)

I need to loop background_task(). But bot.loop.create_task(background_task()) don't working. What should I do? I will be grateful fo your help.
