HOW TO KNOW HE IS THE MAN YOU DESERVE

A lot of us can spend a substantial amount of time trying to look for the love that we think we’re deserving of in this life. And sometimes, if we’re lucky, we don’t have to wait so long to find that love. Whenever you do find that love, you always want to make sure that you don’t take it for granted. You always want to make sure that you fight for that love to make sure that it doesn’t go to waste. However, a lot of us make the mistake of failing to make the distinction whenever we are in the relationships that we are deserving of.

MYTHS SURROUNDING MEN DATING/MARRYING YOUNGER WOMEN

Relationships have always been perceived in a certain way by humans. Since time in history, the status quo is that men should be with women who are younger. In the African setting, most of our parents have a three to five year age gap where in this case our fathers are obviously the older ones.  Even in the creation story, Adam was created before Eve. Thinking about it logically, it already gives the impression that Adam was older and Eve was younger even though their ages are not talked about in any Holy Scripture. They could have been the exact same age, who knows?  This younger woman-older man dynamic is one that has been debated for some time now. With the growing number in divorce cases and broken relationships all over the world, people have started to question if some of the things they knew about love are wrong. More so when it comes to age. Is it just a number or does it play a crucial role in the dynamics of a relationship? Let’s find out:- 1. Differen...

SPIRITUALITY AND SEXUALITY

For the last several years, the world has done all it could to bastardize, re-define and pervert the issue of sex and the church has largely kept silent or give conflicting answers to the ungodly ways of the world. Majority of the church, including her topmost leaders have been confused about the relationship between sexuality and spirituality, thereby failing to provide clear teachings and examples to the church of God. Quite sad, that the moral apostasy of the world have gradually crept into high places in the church. Some sections of the church today see nothing wrong in homosexuality, lesbianism, pornography, rape, masturbation and all kinds of sexual pervasions, which in turn have eroded the spiritual impact of the church and turned her largely to social and secular entities. It’s time to go back to the Bible and seek the mind of God concerning sexuality and spirituality afresh. A.      Biblical Foundation :– Gen. 2:25; 4:1; 1 Samuel ...

MARITAL ISSUES WORSE THAN CHEATING THAT COULD DESTROY YOUR MARRIAGE

Many couples fear infidelity and unfaithfulness in their partners because this has been established, over the years, as a major destroyer of marriages. What results from this is an undue vigilance and suspicion that a partner might be cheating with another man/woman, whereas the relationship is getting hit in other places that would not be noticed until the dent becomes too bad to be fixed. If you are married, in a relationship or looking forward to getting into one someday, here are five things to watch out for, because they might just be as terrible as infidelity or even worse: 1. Holding In Feelings: While heavy conflict is exhausting in a relationship, it usually comes as a result of distance and disengagement. Where partners choose to not express and discuss their issues, the end of that relationship might just be getting closer than they think. Partners act differently when they choose to bury their feelings. They make themselves unavailable to each other which ...

SISTER WALK OUT OF THAT TOXIC RELATIONSHIP BEFORE IT DESTROYS YOU

A lady friend of mine narrated her relationship ordeal to me how she has been co-inhabiting with her boyfriend who is always found of dishing domestic violence to her. She told me of one particular scene. They had misunderstanding, she begged the guy. He refused to accept, but left the room for her. He came back at night, this lady was already sleeping. This guy in anger, poured two buckets of water on her while she was still on the bed. She stood up to behold the wonder very well. To her amazement, this guy started beating her with blow till she started bleeding from mouth and nose. She screamed for help and people came to her rescue. She said she was rushed to the hospital. She spent that night at the hospital. The guy said it was over between them. She said , after she recovered, a week later, she started begging the guy to take her back, that she's still in love with him. The guy objected to her pleads. This lady said, she bought 2,000 Naira call card and sent it to t...

GET MORE THAN A FLOWER IN YOUR RELATIONSHIP

Last month , a pastor friend of mine was watching a movie together with his wife. I visited and also watch some part of the movie with them. We saw where this cute guy was proposing to a lady , he knelt down and gave her a flower, and a ring. His wife said, ' Mine, you did not propose to me with a flower oh. You did not make me feel the trill of receiving flower oh . You only proposed with a new white Bible , Bible quotation, and you used Basic Concept of Economics." We all laughed over it very seriously but my friend was short of words. Then I intruded and replied her that , the Bible says "The grass withers, the FLOWER fades, But the word of our God stands forever.” ( Isaiah 40:8). Immediately I said that my friend jumped up and hugged me, thanking me for belling him out. and we all laughed. The reason why the marriage will last is that, it was founded on the Word of God , and not on flower We all laughed on it. This is just for the fun of it. I...

YOUR WIFE IS YOUR LIFE PARTNER NOT LIFE SERVANT

I cringed today when a man said if his wife does something he ‘commands’ her not to do, he'd send her out of his house back to her parents; that it's very wrong for a woman to disobey her husband no matter what. Well, I couldn't hold my chill, I opposed him passionately and he resorted to calling me a kid; “You won't understand till you get married.” That's always how they sound. Very manipulative old folks. Please single guys, when you wanna get married, just remind yourself that the woman you're getting married to will be your life partner, not your servant. You ain't doing her a favor by getting married to her, so don't ever feel that sending her back to her parents means she'll die or lose her womanhood. Your wife is not your errand girl, she's like a colleague and she's important like you in that marriage, so you don't command her to do things, you don't just give orders, No! Both of you are to reach a stand...

PROPHETS, DON'T PASS YOUR BOUNDARY

I have seen many marriages that should not be that are existing today just because a false prophet used his prophetic gimmicks to match make those couples. I have seen people who did not marry the person they really love. They ended up marrying someone they have no feelings , no passion, and no connection with, just because they wanted to obey their prophets. I blame the prophets ,but I blame those couples more. Dear Prophet & pastors, it is not your duty to choose who your members should marry for them. Yes, you can guide them. Yes, you can teach them. You might even be used by God to introduce them to each other, but sir, never impose a brother on a sister. Never command your Spiritual daughter to marry your spiritual son by fire by force. You know why sir? It will back fire! Also sir, if people reject who you forced them to marry, don't threaten to curse them with your calling. One prophet threatened his daughter in the Lord like that and said, 'If you marr...

WHAT'S BIG DEAL?

I have read so much suicide stories and honestly, while I am not judging the dead, but most times, I see many needless deaths here and there. For example, A pastor wanted to send his nude picture to his wife ,and he mistakenly sent it to his church whatsapp and many of the church members saw the full nude picture of their pastor including his manhood. He thought of the shame of facing the congregation on Sunday because it happened on Friday evening. He committed suicide on Saturday morning, leaving his wife & children helpless. I know it is shameful, but should you end your life and ministry and marriage because of that? A young lady committed suicide because her boyfriend left her. What kind of stupid love is that? Love that can make you to drink poison because your boyfriend left you, is that one love? You are owning 12 million Naira and your creditors are chasing you up and down, so, you are thinking of committing suicide because of debt? What's big deal? Yo...

PRAYER OF AGREEMENT IN MARRIAGE

One of the ways God has programmed speed to answered prayer in the realm of the spirit is through PRAYER OF AGREEMENT. The scripture says in Matthew 18:19 Again, truly I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything they ask for, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. It’s quite unfortunate that many married couples don’t take advantage of this blessing,and they begin to lament that their prayers are being delayed. The devil, very cunning a man knowing the ignorance of men decided to take advantage , He will ensure that husband and wife never pray together and agree together in oneness of heart ,its so unfortunate ,that is the reason things are slowed down in the realm of the spirit. It is either the husband wants to pray but the wife is not willing, or it is either the wife wants to pray but the husband is not willing. You will hear words like ‘’ continue I will join you , “ please don’t disturb me" "Akam ado utom ibaan” (It's a woman...

DIFFERENT TYPES OF SEX

1. RECONCILIATION SEX: Sex is a most potent weapon for diluting and diffusing misunderstanding in Marriage. If you don't use SEX to settle some stubborn crisis, then you are missing out and not maximizing it. In addition when you both settle a misunderstanding, the person at fault could initiate sex as a way to make up to the other who was on the receiving side of the conflict. 2. HEALING SEX: There are some sicknesses and diseases that are cured by good Sex I mean very good Sex. Healing sex is gentle, it is full of grace and elegance. You don't rush it. Mbanu. You do it softly and it hits the bull's eye. Please Husbands, don't throw your weight on her if it's for healing, let the bed carry your weight 100%. 3. PUNISHMENT SEX: When I counsel couples, are times I hear spouses say "Since he did that, I decided to punish him by depriving him of sex", or "since she refused me, I decided not to touch her again". That is as senseless a...

THE PORTRAIT OF A MATURE RELATIONSHIP

It is not the length of time that you two have been together that determines how mature your relationship is. What matters most is how well you treat each other and it shows even in the smallest gestures. These signs will give you an idea if you still have to do better or if you two are on top of your game:- 1. Positive feedback: Mature couples do not hoard compliments. If they are in the mood to appreciate their partners, they freely do so without worrying about being too mushy. Simple things like, “nice shirt”, “lovely hairdo”, “you look great”, “I miss you”, “you smell nice”, etc. may not necessarily be so romantic but are sweet nonetheless. 2. Check-in : This is the simple reason that mature couples talk to each more than once a day where possible. Personally, I don’t even understand how you can be dating and you don’t talk every day. Checking in to say how your day is going or ask about your partner’s day reinforces the connection you two share. 3. Openly co...
