All may appear dark to you. Your partner, pastor, mentor, friends, siblings or parents may be incapacitated in that present situation.
See, your silent prayer to the invisible God can go a long way to settle you.
I've tested it and it worked for me.
Pray your silent prayer without doubt, and the God who sees in secret will reward you openly.😄

This is the concluding part of the recipe we considered yesterday. Read closely and meditate on it. Sexual immorality is a big time destiny destroyer
Daddy Adeboye further mentioned that, it is the precious thing you have that the devil targets when he tempts you with sex (Proverbs 6:26).
While you are relishing in ecstasy for a few minutes of pleasure, you are losing what it took you several years of agonising prayer, fasting, seeking God’s face and self- denial to obtain. It is like pulling down a house. Some people build their house for up to six months, one year, five years or even more.
But bring a bulldozer or let there be a fire outbreak in that house and the house is down in a matter of minutes. Fornication razes you down even below your foundation in a matter of minutes! Every fornicator is a loser.
Fornication or adultery does not allow its victim to have permanent blessings.
When God gives such victims a blessing that they are expected to secure through righteousness, the
moment they fornicate, the blessing is eaten up and before they realize it, everything is gone. Are you secretly fornicating or committing adultery even as a Christian worker, or minister? You are undoing yourself. Repent and stop it now before it takes your life and sends you to hell!
PRAYER: Father, please cleanse your me from every form of sexual sin in Jesus' name

Today’s recipe is culled from Open Heavens devotional written by Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye last Monday.
I will share this message with us today and tomorrow for proper understanding.
This message is meant to remind children of God of the fact that sexual immorality is ravaging promiscuous youths and careless married people in the body of Christ.
Many are facing unexplained challenges as a result of their illicit sexual activities. I often tell my spiritual children that if anything God has given to you is precious to you, then keep satanic offers billions of miles away from it. John 10:10 says whenever the devil comes, forget the promises he makes; it is to steal and destroy what you already have. If he cannot steal from you, he will not waste his time coming in the first place.
How then could you think that when you give into the devil in committing adultery or fornication you will not lose something? You are so greatly deceived! The greatest losers are those who engage in sexual sins, especially because their bodies are involved, they drive God out of their hearts and welcome in the devil.
Oh! If only you knew what you lost by that single act of sex, you will never do it again! If you are still living in fornication or adultery, you are a big time loser.
Repent and the Lord will deliver you by His mercy today in Jesus’ name.
Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.

AKINDELE: Must I say it all the time. Believe me. I've proved my love to you in several ways: with gifts, frequent visits, uncountable outings, what else do you want?
OLUSOLA: I want you to SAY IT, CONFESS IT regularly, as often as possible. It gives me assurance and peace. How can you claim to love me and not mention it in five months but act it? We have six months to our wedding remember.
AKINDELE: But I prove it always.
OLUSOLA: You need to confess it dear. Even the bible supports me in Romans 10:9.
AKINDELE: How?
OLUSOLA: You just can't believe Jesus with your heart and not confess it. Such Salvation is incomplete. There is power in our Words. If you claim to love God with actions or activities without confession, I don't think such a person is genuinely saved. Likewise this matter.
AKINDELE: Okay my dear, I LOVE JESUS and I LOVE YOU OLUSOLA.
"That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."

Today, I want us to learn from the true life story of two of my friends that got me thinking.
"It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so he giveth his beloved sleep." (Psalm127:2)
This lady waited for twenty seven years without defiling herself, expecting the Will of God to be done in marriage but did not finish her National Youth Service year before she got pregnant. Marriage Introduction was done and she settled down.
The man also waited for thirty seven years without defiling himself but made one-time mistake of having sex few months to his wedding when wedding cards are about to be printed. White wedding was cancelled and they settled down after traditional wedding.
You see, Paul said, "it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy. Romans 9:16"
It is not how long you've waited but also how watchful you are.
You've waited too long to miss it.
Divine Grace and Mercy will keep us, Amen.

A good number of Youths end up in the Pit of Marriage due to lack good mentor, wrong counsel, faulty foundation and some are unaccountable.
Paul the Apostle said, 'Be ye followers of me, even as I am also of Christ.'
It is advisable to prayerfully get a good mentor/discipler, release yourself to correction but still subject their counsels to the truth in the Word of God.

"Unto thee will I cry, O LORD my rock; be not silent to me: lest, if thou be silent to me, I become like them that go down into the pit."
The silence of God could be as a result of our sins.
He could be silent when you don't invite Him into our decisions.
His silence is very disastrous and most times, leads man to the PIT.
In marital decision, ensure you listen to God's voice so as to avoid the PIT of 'Had I Know'.

True Love sacrifices ALL for others.
"Greater love has no one than this, than to LAY DOWN one’s life for his friends." John 15:13
THE ULTIMATE TEST OF LOVE IS SACRIFICE.
Any declaration of love that is devoid of Sacrifice is questionable.
When you are genuinely in love, making Sacrifices for the one you love will be a thing of pleasure not a burden.
No price is too much to pay for the one you love except SIN.
True love will not lead you to sin, it is neither selfish nor fleshy. It is godly.

In these present days, the foundation of most professed love had conditions attached to it and wrongly built.
Wealth, money, position, profession, doctrine, tribe, and prestige have become major determinants of True Love: some even declare it as their family norm.
Jesus asked Peter, "Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me MORE THAN THESE?”
He asked him three times.
Genuine love is from the heart and is always tested.
Unconditional love continues to build and grow irrespective of situations posing threat around; It blossoms whether people are around to encourage or not.
Can you truly love? The genuine answer is from the heart not from your purse or wardrobe.
"So when they had eaten breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me more than these?” He said to Him, “Yes, Lord; You know that I love You.” He said to him, “Feed My lambs."

Welcome to another edition of relationship recipe.
Are you wondering how to get the right foundation?
Annie, why are you clamouring on foundation?
The right foundation is found in Divine laid down structure of building a home not a house. The home is made of you and your wife while the house is made up of every animate and inanimate objects where you reside.
To get a good plan for your home, just like a house, you need a good Architect. You must have the picture of what you want.
Patience for the Architect to draw before the foundation is done is very necessary.
Peace: Of what use is my patience with him?
Linda:At least you can see all what this man has achieved in four years.
Peace:Must He achieve all his goals before marriage?
Linda:No. But marriage will bring new responsibilities to him. You have to ensure you also do something before marriage.
Peace:I have completed my university education. That's my vision before marriage.
Linda:Don't be surprised that we have young wives with Masters degree who wished they had done something purposeful before marriages gave them new duties.
Peace:So, what can I do?
Linda:Tell me about your life vision
Peace:Vision, even as a Woman?
Linda:Yes, dear.

You may be wondering the reason for sexual purity campaign. Look around you, I'm sure you will agree with me that there is Pollution everywhere.
Many have abused the original intention of God for creation.
Apostle Paul said and I quote,
"...Run from sex sin. No other sin affects the body as this one does. When you sin this sin it is against your own body.
Haven't you yet learned that your body is the HOME of the HOLY SPIRIT God gave you, and that HE lives within you?
Your own body does not belong to you.
For God has bought you with a great price. So use EVERY PART of your body to give glory back to God because He owns it."
1Corinthians6:18-20(TLB)
PVO also wrote, "Your sex organ was not bought with your money.
God gave it to you. So?
It's not for immorality.
Zip up beloved."
Must you use God's gift in your care against His commandment?

"...how then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?"
Temptation is not a sin but yielding to it is a sin.
Some give excuses after yielding to sexual enticements while some sees it as an opportunity that must be seized especially in a strange land.
We face temptation everyday.
What will be your response at the face of temptation?

If you ask me why I choose SEXUAL PURITY, I will tell you my discovery.
"My body is God's temple; He paid for it with a precious blood. I can't allow anyone to pollute what is Gods'.
Anyone who wants my body must take permission from my heavenly father, at His Altar and before His people. My body is not mine."
Tomorrow is the World Sexual Purity Day. Can you share with the World, why sexual purity is necessary?

"That no flesh should glory in his presence. #1Corinthians 1:29"
The presence of God is vital; flesh has no say therein.
Holiness grants access to His presence. You have no option, you just have to stay PURE.
Purity pays.
Daddy E.A Adeboye said something on purity today. Let me share it with you:
"Be a standard for the world to behold in Holiness and Righteousness. Make up your mind that no matter what the cost is, you will pay to be God's favourite. The future belongs to those who prepare for it".

"Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations."
A special unique and awesome treasure God gave to all women is the WOMB. it's meant to birth Destinies, Visions, Dreams, Purposes, and Life.
It's a pity that many have sacrificed their womb on the altar of Career, Sexual Immorality, Pleasures of life, Lust, Wealth etc.

Someone shared this with me yesterday.
"You see, no one knows tommorrow. What gives her the assurrance that she will deliver the baby safely if she gets pregnant before getting married? My first date and the person i would have married requested too that it is their family tradition for any lady they want to marry to get pregnant before marrying them. The family called me to tell me of the condition but i told them its against my family tradition too. So we broke up. He is married now to a someone that got pregnant for him before they legally got Married. I also have a baby now and i am not legally Married. What i want to bring out of this is that, I didnt foresee myself getting pregnant before marriage then which eventually happened to me. NO ONE KNOWS TOMORROW. So, getting pregnant before marriage does not guarantee that she would carry the pregnancy to term and deliver safely? Bimpe should not give in to that request rather she should obey and trust in the One who knows ALL THINGS."

I appreciate our responses to Bimpe's predicament. Marriage is not only for procreation, it's a divine blessing to couples. Bimpe was not having health challenges but the pregnancy refused to come. It ended her relationship with her fiancé and she went back to her single life, although very painful.
Someone wrote this to me: "The way God does his things , you can not question Him. Someone will get married as a virgin and wait years before getting pregnant while someone with history of several abortions will conceive on her wedding night.
Why will someone have sex as a single several times and not get pregnant and one young girl will be raped and she does not even know that she is pregnant until 4-5months after the incident."

🙆 yeh!!! Nah one chance be dt o.
Seriously what do people take God for? Do they think it is because you have sex that you become pregnant? If that is d case, then Sarah should av given birth to d multitude God promised Abraham by herself or you think it is because she does not have enough sex or her hubby was impotent that she had to rely on Isaac to turn her hubby to a father of many nations?
Rara o☝☝☝God was not just ready to open her womb!!! So if you think you sleep with your fiance before d wedding for you to get pregnant, you have made a big mistake.
I use to know a lady who was asked by her in laws to get pregnant before her wedding and she did that. Guess what🤔 she was 8months gone before d wedding and barely 4weeks after d wedding, she gave birth through CS yet lost d baby. To cap it all, she waited another 1year before getting another🔨 pregnancy. Let us thank God for her. What if she had to wait 15years before she got another one?

Bimpe was disturbed about her three years relationship with Kinsley. They've gone a long way together and wedding plans already began. To her greatest surprise, her in-laws-to-be, especially her mother-in-law insists that she gets pregnant before the wedding because her elder sister is yet to give birth after six years of marriage.
Actually, she is not a virgin. She gives in, anytime to Kinsley demand for sexual pleasures. Unfortunately, the pregnancy is not forth coming and marriage plans are on hold.
Please advise her?

"My wounds stink and are corrupt because of my foolishness."
Shalewa ignored all calls and messages from Oscar. He visited her to confirm reasons for such unexplainable acts.
When Shalewa sighted Oscar, the love she was trying to kill, came back. She hugged and kissed him then ran back to her room. He followed her and after much explanations, Oscar apologised for his nonchalant attitude towards Shalewa's emotions and plans. He loved her just a close friend and nothing more.
He promised to help her kill the feeling by keeping a distance. Shalewa couldn't bear Oscar's disappearance from her life, she was hopeless, then committed suicide. It was pathetic.

Shalewa remained speechless as tears dropped from her eyes uncontrollably after the chat with Oscar on Whatsapp.
Could Oscar be serious? She thought within herself.
She summoned courage to reply, asking Oscar if he was serious with the question.
He confirmed his seriousness by sending his screen grabbed messages with the lady because he trusts Shalewa so much as his close friend.
She managed to reply with 'brb' (be right back) and gave herself space to weep very well.
This is a man she had been building her world around, waiting for the right day of proposal.

"My wounds stink and are corrupt because of my foolishness."
Shalewa and Oscar are friends. They went to the same secondary school, grew up in the same neighborhood, from the Eastern part of Nigeria.
Their parents call them husband and wife. They have affections for each other as they grow and always look out for themselves.
Even when Shalewa got an admission into a private university and Oscar into a Federal university, they communicate everyday, visits each other often in school, go shopping together, and every one sees them as Romeo and Juliet.
They get jealous of each other anytime they find themselves in the company of another friend.
This continued till they went for their National youth service. At this time, Shalewa was already dreaming of her marriage to Oscar, she turned down proposals from other men, assuming her relationship with Oscar is meant to end on the altar.
Although they've never had any sexual intercourse but loves the company of each other.
Three months to the end of their National assignment, Oscar introduced his new girlfriend whom he wish to marry to Shalewa and seek her opinion about the lady as his close friend.
If you are Shalewa, what will be your response to Oscar?
The story continues tomorrow by God's Grace.

And thine ears shall HEAR A WORD behind thee, saying, This is THE WAY, WALK YE IN IT, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left." Isaiah 30:21
I welcome you to a new week of fruitfulness in all life endeavors.
From the beginning of this month, we've been considering the Issue of Marital FOUNDATION.
This is because marriage is God's INSTITUTION and the devil is really interested in it.
Once a man or woman misses the right decision into this institution, he/she will stagger in life except GRACE of God intervenes (Ask those struggling in their marriages today, few will open up.)
The passage above says YOU WILL HEAR A WORD BEHIND YOU.
#ThevoiceofGodcommandsHispresence#
As a man who doesn't want to mislead his home, It is very necessary to tune your ears to listen and obey the voice of God and as a woman who doesn't want to misguide her family.
A relationship with God helps you to get your foundation right through HIS VOICE and WORD.
Let your love and desire for God be TOTAL not CONDITIONAL ( example: Loving God because you want to settle down)
His Word is well understood by HIS OWN CHILDREN. AVAIL YOURSELF TO BE HIS OWN TODAY.

Matthew 7:25
Rain, Floods and Winds are enemies of a Holy Matrimony.
This is the major reason you must get your source right.
The source of your proclaimed love to you partner must be properly determined and strongly founded in God so that when the above enemies visit your marriage, you won't even see them because of the regular succour and encouragement in your source.
Today's challenges and pressures can make a fulfilling marriage seem like an impossible dream. Yet God delights in doing the impossible if only we would ask. ( Stormie Omartan)

Your Foundation determines the lifespan of your marriage.
Marriages founded on emotions/ feelings, wealth, professional compatibility, beauty, handsomeness, lust e.t.c, easily collapse because they can't sustain trial illustrated above before crumbling.

Welcome to a new day of sincere Truth.
I hope you have carried out the practical assignment from yesterday's recipe (Ask your partner, on which foundation you are building your home.)
You may need an hint to answer the question rightly.
There are two types of foundations namely:
Shaky Foundation and,
Firm Foundation.
Shaky foundation is one full of theories for building, not based on the principles of the word of God while Firm Foundation is one having rudiments for building based ONLY on the Word of God.
This is not a matter of fear or timidity, ask your partner again: 'On which foundation are we building our home? What is our source?'
I advise you to build on the immutable Word of God. If your relationship rests on any other principle outside the word of God, it will SHAKE your destiny.

This new session will deliver treasures to our lives by God's grace.
I will love us to start with FOUNDATION.
Although we've shared something similar to it before but we can't stop emphasising on it because 'The Foundation of your home determines its lifespan.'
In this 21st century, we discovered that foundation plans are drawn most of the time on the table of situations surrounding it, not the divine instructions.
Situations like what?
My Self will;
My Standards;
My Demands;
To the extent that some draw their FOUNDATION PLANS on a fornication bed, private sexual chats, online dating pages and many others.
Take time to ask your partner: "What foundation are we building on?"
God bless you
I Love U

"The entrance of thy words gives light; it gives understanding unto the simple. Psalm 119:130"
The Oldest book with the Latest Information is the BIBLE.
Irrespective of the numbers of Books, blogs or posts you might have read, written by great authors who are experienced in marriage or career matters, you may not get the true knowledge (Information), needed for your fulfilment in life until you feed on (Study) the Bible (word of God) to get the Real Information for exploits in your life, destiny and home.

Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done. Luke 22:42
This prayer was said by Jesus Christ at the point of making a critical life and destiny decision.
It is true that you have the freedom of Choice when it comes to decision making especially marital decision, but there is something call the WILL OF GOD. Jesus confirmed it in the sentence above.
It is advisable to SURRENDER TO THE WILL OF GOD NO MATTER HOW UNREAL IT MAY APPEAR.

Happy Sunday
"By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, after they were compassed about seven days. Hebrews 11:30"
Are you frustrated by issues surrounding your courtship?
Is your partner tired or afraid?
You need Real Patience and Faith in the word of God my dear. God never fails, don't Give Up on Him.
You know why?
Faith quenches all evil.
More so, the opposition you suffer today is a clear signal of the position/testimony you will enjoy tomorrow.
Therefore, ignore Fear because at every stage of your trial God will fight for you.
Its just that there are many faith CONFESSORS but few faith CONTENDERS.
You never possess what is yours without the FIGHT OF FAITH.
It is time to pray together.
Confess and pray out the promises of God for your home, stop complaining and ALWAYS encourage your partner.
The wall of Jericho did not fall in a day, remember.
Have a great weekend

"Every word of God is pure: He is a SHIELD unto them the put their Trust in Him. Proverbs 30:5"
Trials, temptations, persecutions could be the order of the time we find ourselves today. Complaints are cheaply found on our street, place of work, relationships...
Although they are necessary to test our faith, to determine the kind of life and home we will produce, whether that which will bring glory and praise to God or the other way round.
There will always be a test of faith, even through your partner. Will you get anything to fall back on when those trials come?
It is true you have the power to make your CHOICE but will that power of yours sustain you in time of storm.
This is the more reason you need the WORD (Divine Direction) that serves as your Shield as you trust in Him, to keep you from falling. Your partner is also human, limited.
God bless you

"When we walk with the Lord,
In the light of His Word,
What a Glory He sheds on our way,
While we do His good Will,
He abides with us still,
And with all who will
Trust and Obey."
The road may be Bumpy;
The paths can be rough;
The Journey may appear slow;
The destination may seem far;
The promises could be delayed;
Confusion may becloud you;
Situations may not be pleasant;
Your partner may be frustrating;
Never lose your faith;
Keep praying;
Keep believing on the RIGHT WORD;
Hold on those promises God gave to you.
Until your faith fails, nothing fails;
Faith is the stability of your life;
Prayer renews and strengthens Faith;
When you pray, you don't faint;
When you pray, you don't fall;
When you pray, you don't fail.
"Nothing fails until your faith in your partner/purpose fails."

"Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding. Proverbs 23:23"
True Love is always sincere, cannot die, not harmful and trustworthy. Daniel and Fola's case may seems confusing but its not, if well handled.
Fola needs to be sincere if she can truly carry on with her marriage with Daniel. Her Union with Daniel may lack joy, peace and true commitment if she is not sincere as regards the position of her heart.
Remember, a broken courtship is better than an unhappy/unfulfilled marriage; it better to have a woman whose heart is with you not someone else.
Was there a direction before she entered into the courtship with Daniel? Is her relationship with Gbenga divinely ordained?
First love may be strong yet without joy and fulfilment if it lacks divine backing.
Daniel and Fola must settle the issue of TRUST, LOVE AND COMMITMENT before the marriage.
Thanks for all your opinions, contributions and suggestions. I know we've been able to bless some lives.
'Its not only about first or second love, its about divine choice.'

"Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding. Proverbs 23:23"
We love you all for your comments and counsel to Fola and Daniel. Your response meant so much to us as we share this to bless others out there who found themselves in such situation and are confused.
TOBI
I think Fola should inform Daniel's parents and explain to them all what happened. They should be in d best position to help her. That is if her love for Daniel is genuine.
I think if she can't talk to Daniel as at that time, his parents should be able to do that better after all d begging and pleading.
YEMISI
I believe in every godly relationship, ugly past must be discussed... If that has been done, Daniel should come closer to Fola more than before because it may not be easy for her to avoid Gbenga due to the feelings they both had. Fola should be prayerful to know mind of God on the present issue and go for godly counseling.
Mary
Since Fola failed on her path to tell Daniel about her past relationship and invited Gbenga to her apartment which is not appropriate, the place of prayer and confession can't be overemphasized at this time.
Then, if Daniel has truly met with Christ and has a forgiving spirit as we were told in the story, Fola shouldn't hesitate to see her Pastor or Daniel's pastor or both, to explain things to them, seek their counsel or that of the marriage committee in order to convince Daniel of the genuineness of her apology. These people can still influence Daniel of the truth.
And of course, Fola shouldn't marry Gbenga, except Daniel isn't going back on his decisions. Fola is however free yo marry Gbenga if she's led and convinced.

We bless God for a new day.
Truth may appear difficult but with the existence of the TRUTH in your heart, it will be easier to always know and do the right thing.
We still received some opinions on Fola's issue. Don't hide the truth from your partner please.
Jaiye
At Annie's story...my stakes: God may be at work for the lady in order to marry the right man. Considering the opinions from others, I think mine will counter some points.
I feel she should be able to talk to Daniel and settling it on their own. Daniel should be able to trust his supposed wife. If they can't settle this on their own, How will they settle serious issues after marriage?
She should focus her prayer points on grace not to miss the right man (that is if she is having doubts.)
Boluwatife
I think d lady should try to explain everything to Daniel. She should have told him about the other guy before, that is why we should open to ourselves during courtship so there won't be problems like this.
If after explanations and pleadings, Daniel is still not forthcoming, she should leave everything to God, if he's meant for her, he will come back and if not, Gbenga maybe the right guy.
By the grace of God, godly professional counselors will also give us their opinion on this matter before the last series.
Have a great day.

"Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding. Proverbs 23:23"
Wow! We had responses based on opinions, suggestions and all. Although, they are easier written or read than done, but I will encourage us to always do the right thing.
Let's share some:
To my own opinion and suggestions, I think the sister should travail in prayer and commit things to God's hands cos with God all things are possible and I believe Daniel will listen to her own side of the story and moreover before they get too close to each other they should have unveiled their past to each other because it's normal that Daniel reacted in such a way since he was once into it before he got saved. I believe if Daniel is the will of God for her he will surely stay. But my own advise to her is never to go back to her first love cos she never can predict the kind of person he is now. May God help her.
BUKOLA
Hmm! I believe Fola should have told Daniel about Gbenga before the time. And since she knows how she loved Gbenga then, she shouldn't have allowed any private discussion between the two of them alone in the room. The solution now is to pray to God first to take the heart of Daniel for her and then apologize to him. I believe with that, if Daniel truly loves her, he will surely forgive her.
BOLA
Fola will surely explain to Daniel and the wedding will still hold while Gbenga will move back to Abroad...
Synonymous
Could Gbenga be the destined man for Fola? Hmm!
See you tomorrow with more reactions as to how we can handle the sudden appearance of first love.

"Confidence in an unfaithful man in time of trouble is like a broken tooth, and a foot out of joint. Proverbs 25:19"
Its a beautiful day in a blessed week because everything created by God is good. We do not own ourselves, so we move whenever He instructs.
Relationship Recipe was not broadcasted yesterday because there was no proper preparation for it. Please bear with us.
This week, by the help of the Almighty God, we will be realistic about the issue of FIRST LOVE. Some finds it difficult to start another relationship even when there is break in communication with the man/woman they first loved and we've also seen failed marriages resulting to the reunion first loves.
"Can you then TRUST someone still nursing the wound from his/her first love?"
Daniel was once an unbeliever who lived a reckless life. He defiled so many careless girls, but he was blessed to have met Christ in his University days. He became transformed as he started living a new life.
Folakemi was born into a Christian family, her parents had instilled in her the fear of God and she had kept herself sexually pure. She met with Gbenga during her orientation program as a fresh student in the University; Gbenga helped her so well when she had certain difficulties during her registration, so both became close. They developed a friendship that was more than a mere friendship.
Folakemi so much liked Gbenga and they planned taking their love life to the marriage level.
After their degree program, Gbenga travelled out of the country and they both lost contact. Fola was heartbroken because she loved Gbenga so much but time healed her broken heart.
The path of Fola and Daniel then crossed and they entered into a serious relationship with marriage in view. They had their introduction ceremony and already picked a date for their wedding when the path of Fola and Gbenga crossed again. Gbenga decided to have a serious chat with Fola in her room, a self-contain apartment. Gbenga told her the reason they lost contact and that he still very much loved her and he came back in search for her. Fola was moved to tears with Gbenga's story how Gbenga had made effort to look for her all to no avail and he decided to come into the country to look for her. They hugged each other tightly out of past emotions and love, with tears in their eyes and immediately Daniel opened the door of the room and saw Gbenga about placing a kiss on Fola's forehead as they hugged.
He couldn't believe his eyes that his fiancee whom he trusts so much and about to wed, is in another man's arms. He barged out of the room.
Fola was dazed, she knew she is in for a great trouble because her fiance is so stubborn, he wouldn't listen to her. She told Gbenga everything. All her effort to clean up the mess proved futile, Daniel was so much disappointed and heart broken in his Saint Fola who wouldn't dare shake another guy talk less of hugging him. He had thought she is just a deadly hypocrite and he wanted the wedding cancelled.
At this juncture, your counsel is needful. God bless you.
