LIES ABOUT WOMEN’S SEXUALITY!
GROWING UP, ONE OF THE LIES I met was about Eggs. In those days, there were no Poultry businesses and there were hardly shops where you’d see crates of Eggs on sale. Eggs were rare and they were laid by native fowls. Now, let’s talk about the LIE. The LIE was that children should not […]
THE HUSBAND AS THE FAMILY SUPERINTENDENT
IN MARRIAGE THE HUSBAND IS THE HEAD. However, he doesn’t have the monopoly of the ideas for running the Home and Family. He must recognize this early in Marriage and save himself a lot of needless misunderstanding with his wife. In Marriage, there must be openness, humility and the willingness to see the merits of […]
YOUR MARRIAGE AND YOUR MOBILE PHONE (PT. 2)
IN YESTERDAY’S DEVOTIONAL PIECE, WE SAW THAT when you buy a Mobile Phone, it quickly becomes your “closest” material possession. You, however, need to watch lest it competes in any way with your Spouse for your heart, time and attention. Or worse still, displacing and replacing them in your affection and desire! This warning becomes […]
YOUR MARRIAGE AND YOUR MOBILE PHONE
WHEN YOU BUY A MOBILE PHONE, IT INSTANTLY BECOMES your “closest” possession. Your shoes, dresses, cars, name it: none of them would enjoy the kind of closeness and intimacy your phone would enjoy with you. If people named nonliving possessions, you would have given it a name on the day you purchased it. You don’t […]
WALKING IN HEAVENLY LOVE (PT. 2)
GOD’S WORD MAKES IT CLEAR THAT THERE’S A CLEAR DIFFERENCE between heavenly love and the ordinary or natural human love. What most Spouses have is the ordinary, natural human love which even the highly depraved sinners and miscreants have. The practice of Spouses who run on this kind of love is to work or contribute […]
WALKING IN HEAVENLY LOVE
IN LUKE CHAPTER 15: 3-7, JESUS TOLD A PARABLE FROM WHICH WE CAN learn to walk in the unusual love: God’s kind of Love; Heavenly Love. In that parable, a Shepherd left ninety nine sheep in the field and went in search of the ONE missing sheep and when he found it, he didn’t give […]
CONSTANTLY SATIATE EACH OTHER
THE “DUE BENEVOLENCE” GOD COMMANDS SPOUSES to render, give and minister to each other is much more than just carrying out a mindless, routine sexual act. It’s a command to CONSTANTLY SATIATE EACH OTHER and thus helping one another to be and to stay in a state of stable and full moral strength that enables […]
EMPATHY AND COMPASSION IN MARRIAGE
MARRIAGE HAS BROUGHT YOU AND YOUR SPOUSE INTO the closest and deepest human relationship on Earth. It has made the two of you ONE FLESH. Therefore, if there’s any where your humanity should be seen, it’s in your relationship with each other. In Luke Chapter 10, we have the story of the man who fell […]
DON’T LET YOUR EYES DECEIVE YOU!
IN MARRIAGE, DON’T LET YOUR EYES AND FEELINGS mislead you to conclude that your union isn’t worth holding on to. If you do, you’re most likely to regret it sorely; perhaps for the rest of your life. Moses sent twelve men to spy the land of promise. For years these men believed that it was […]
HUSBAND, ARE YOU BRUTAL IN THE MARRIAGE BEDROOM?
A HOUSEWIFE COMPLAINED about her husband’s lovemaking and said: “I FIND HIM RATHER BRUTAL WHEN WE MAKE LOVE IN THE EVENINGS.” Are husband’s reading? Does this give you any clue as to why some wives are no longer interested in “the evening programme”? Sir, sexual intimacy isn’t carpentry, panel beating or worse still, pounding yam […]
