God Kind of Love by Solomon Exousia

Image
I am thankful for the grace given me to write you on this inexhaustible subject. I will write a 'modest' epistle and trust God that it would bring forth a good harvest of peace and joy. One truth the Lord wants us to have is that God is love and he loves us. Jesus said, 'for God so loved the world that he gave his only Son that whosoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.' John 3:16. God's kind of love gives eternal life to those who receive him. God's love makes man to come up to his kind of living and dominion. David said concerning this, 'What is mankind that you are mindful of them, human beings that you care for them? You have made them a little lower than the angels and crowned them with glory and honor. You made them rulers over the works of your hands; you put everything under their feet.' Psalm 8:4-6. This is what the love of God does to anyone who is in God. It makes them rulers over the works of the...

21 Questions to Ask before Marriage... By Pastor Bimbo Rosemary Odukoya

Image
Learning how to live a maximized singlehood and to build a relationship that will culminate to a healthy marriage that is heaven on earth from a biblical practical approach. The Bible says that, “a man who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favour from the Lord.” Proverbs 18:22.  But we must understand that the finding is a process and it is a serious task. This process involves seeking and elimination. It takes time and energy. Ignorance of what this process involves is what makes many singles sad and discouraged or rush into mis-matched marriages. The truth is, finding just any type of life partner is easy; you can pick anyone off the street and go to the altar with him/her. But the heart-breaks and rejections from failed relationships are not easy at all. If you must find that one who would do you good, that one who is tailor- made by God to fit you, then you must invest time, ...

10 TYPES OF WOMAN U SHOULD NEVER THINK OF MARRYING!

Image
1. The Bitter Woman: You know that woman that always seems to be angry at the menfolk all the time? Perhaps she has had her heart broken one too many times, but this woman is always bashing on men and talking about how they are no-good or useless. A man might not want to settle down with someone so bitter as it is guaranteed that when the opportunity arises, she would hurl hurtful insults and intense, hateful words his way due to all her unresolved anger. 2. The Selfish Woman: If you want a happy home and a partner that wants your happiness as well as hers, then you should steer clear of the selfish woman. A woman who is determined to make sure she always comes first would not be able to build a cheerful and loving home with you. 3. The Materialistic Woman : A woman obsessed with material things would certainly not make the best wife. If all she cares about are material possession over family, faith and spiritual fulfillment, then she will not make the best partner. ...

10 Worsts Mistakes Christians Make While Dating..

Image
Singles make up a  big percentage of any given church, and pastors spend a lot of time teaching about marriage and parenting. But how do you actually find the right person to marry? You won't hear much teaching about dating in most churches. It's like we're afraid to touch the subject—so people just feel their way in the dark and figure out romance on their own. Our awkwardness about this topic is one reason single Christians make so many relationship blunders—and why many marriages start out on the wrong foot. I asked some of my single friends and one of my daughters to help me compile this list of most common dating mistakes. Here are the Top 10: 1. Being desperate for a relationship.  Some singles freak out when they hit age 25. They stop trusting God and begin a nail-biting search for a mate. My friend Nicole Doyley, author of  The Wait , says she knows women who are so frantic about finding Prince Charming that they immediately fall for any guy who asks th...

Evaluating Your Spiritual Relationship Before Marriage

Image
Your spiritual compatibility will influence the quality of your future marriage more than any other factor.  Note: Each year, thousands of pastors and counselors use. Preparing for Marriage as the foundation of their pre-marriage training for engaged couples. Preparing for Marriage was recently revised and updated, and the following excerpt addresses a subject that many couples do not adequately discuss before they are married. No other human relationship will play a more important role in shaping your life than your relationship with your spouse. And yet many pre-married couples make the crucial decisions about marriage when their minds are clouded with such powerful emotions that they find it difficult to think straight. They are so caught up in the whirlwind of romance that they fail to work out some crucial issues before they commit their lives to each other. For a Christian, the most important of these issues is spiritual compatibility...

The Proverbs 31 Woman

Image
“Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.”   -Proverb 31:10, The Hebrew word for “rubies” (paniyn paniy ) in Proverb 31:10 includes costly pearls as well.  According to experts in London, pearls are now in some classes worth more value than diamonds. The Bible teaches in Proverb 31:10 that a virtuous woman is FAR MORE VALUABLE than rubies or pearls! She is worth more than diamonds! Jesus said in Matthew 6:24, “No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.” The word “mammon” comes directly from the Greek word mammonas , meaning “wealth.” The Bible teaches that wealth and serving God are diametrically opposed to each other. You CANNOT serve them both! It is tragic that hordes of women these days are choosing pearls instead of...

When Suicide is Your Best and Last Option...

Image
“The best way out is always through…” Life has a lot of mysteries. Things never unfold themselves all to us from the start. Would it have been revealed, sure many of us would not embark on some adventures. So I am writing this to you, yes you, because your last and best option is suicide! Is that not? Or have you not thought of it yet? I think you had severally. I just but wonder what kept you alive till now; I guess you want to read this piece before you finally end it all. If then, happy reading… Think for a moment, won’t it solve it all? You just hang that rope up there, or maybe you’ll prefer jumping off the cliff. No that would be too gruesome. Why not try something less noisy, like drinking poison, or shooting up yourself in the head. Amazing option you said. Ok then, I think we are making progress. So after this, I believe all will be over as soon as you close your eyes and take this ‘bold’ step. So you will finally end all your miseries, nothing will ever need to...

Falling In Love Again With Your Spouse

Image
...It is hard work, but someone must be willing to be the first to break the cycle if a relationship is to be restored... The movie that made Marilyn Monroe famous was  The Seven Year Itch . The idea was that about every seven years most married people begin to itch where they can’t scratch. They know something is wrong, but they don’t know what, let alone what to do about it. Often they have an affair around that time. Of all marital problems, that which I have confronted the most often in my pastoral counseling is, “I just don’t love her anymore.” While there is a vast difference between being “in love” and loving someone, we still crave to be in love. Couples have been coming to me with marital problems ever since my first pastorate. Ninety percent of them have been married from two to seven years, though some as long as 30. All had the same problem—lost love. What the Bible has to say After hearing this repeated literally hundreds of times in serious coun...
