30-09-16 ASSUMED RELATIONSHIP 5

"My wounds stink and are corrupt because of my foolishness".

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.

29-08-16 ASSUMED RELATIONSHIP 4

"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.

28-09-16 ASSUMED RELATIONSHIP 3

"And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:"

When you assume God is in the midst of your marital journey, you endanger your destiny and commit the wheel of your life to assumptions.
No matter what you've lost in the assumed journey, the True God will restore to you.

"Don't commit your life to an assumed partner, define all relationships"

26-09-16 ASSUMED PRESENCE 1

"But they, supposing him to have been in the company, went a day's journey; and they sought him among their kinsfolk and acquaintance."

The parents of Jesus assumed he was with them on a day journey. It took them many hours and stress to travel back to look for Him.
No matter how many years you've spent in the wrong/sinful relationship, forget about what people will say, the number of years, the emotional pains, turn back and search for the true love God has in plan for you.
  Let go and Let God.

For the vision (of your home) is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: THOUGH IT TARRY, WAIT FOR IT; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.

The road may appear very rough, exercise more patience, all will be well.

There is no point waiting when you have no Word of Assurance from the Lord relating to your partner yet.

Don't wait on FATE but on FAITH in the Word of God.

A man has joy by the answer of his mouth: and a word spoken in due season, how good is it!

There is saying that A CLOSED MOUTH IS A CLOSED DESTINY.

Freedom of your expression through speech to your partner is crucial.
No matter the NONSENSE you say, he/she will bring out the Sense in it; not rubbish your opinion but will first reason with it.

How will you build together of you don't have time for SINCERE HEART-TO-HEART discussion?

Fear of relating your plans with your partner is wrong. Some are afraid because of inferiority complexity.

Please TALK, STUDY, PLAN AND PRAY together.
If you are always afraid to TALK to your partner, please rebuild.

Must you marry before you become a good planner?

SOLUTION:
Take time out to study; Read good books relating marriage, man of vision, virtuous woman, irrespective of your gender.
Above all, study and meditate on the word of God.

Knowledge helps you build a solid foundation.

08-09-16 CORRECT IT NOW

"And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; WALK before me, and be thou PERFECT." Genesis 17:1

No age is to late to correct foundational problems in your marital destiny.

No period is too long to forsake a courtship built on deceit or sexual immorality.
A broken courtship is better than divorce or unfulfilled marriage.

God called Abram to order at the age of ninety nine (99), to check his ways and be perfect so that Divine agenda for his life may come to pass, after keeping quite for thirteen(13) years.

Same goes to you this morning, it is not too late to make necessary corrections, pack your load out of the relationship/courtship not founded on God's perfect standards. It heads to hell. Forget about people's comments.

Check your Walk/Ways if it is one God desires.

05-09-16 VOICE BEHIND

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.

04-09-16 ENEMIES OF MATRIMONY

"And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock."
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)

Get your Foundation in God's voice/word.

"Therefore whosoever hears these sayings of mine, and does them, I will liken him unto a WISE MAN, which built his house upon a rock: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that House; and it FELL NOT: for it was founded upon a rock." Matthew 7:24-25

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.

To avoid Cohabitation instead of Holy Matrimony, check your foundation today.

Firm foundation built on Christ, the Rock is the BEST.

02-09-16 MY FOUNDATION

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.
