A Great Secret: Don’t Be Malodorous (Pt. 1)

Scripture:
‘A bundle of myrrh is my wellbeloved unto me; HE SHALL LIE ALL NIGHT BETWIXT MY BREASTS.’
(Songs 1:13)

A VERY POWERFUL FACTOR IN THE EVOCATION of Love, Passion, Affection and Sexual Attention is HOW YOU SMELL. I’m selling you a precious secret for free.

God created Man in His image and likeness and because He has the sense of Smell, He gave you the same as well.

God can smell and that’s why He smelled the sacrifice of Noah after the flood and His enjoyment of the fragrant smell moved Him to make the “Rainbow Covenant” by which He promised that there’ll never be a repeat of the Noahic flood. So, fragrant smells can evoke Favour and attract positive attention, just in the case of Noah above.

In our anchor scripture for today, the female Lover confessed that her Spouse was like a satchet of Myrrh and would therefore lie ALL NIGHT LONG between her Breasts! This woman’s comparing her husband with Myrrh shows that her man was a squeaky clean and fragrant gentle man; because Myrrh has for centuries been ranked among the best perfume plants on earth.

The good smell of her man made her desirous of intimacy with him ALL NIGHT LONG! How you smell can sometimes be more important than how you look. If you look handsome or beautiful but stink, you are an instant put-off to your mate, no matter how sexually starved they may be.

Husbands and Wives must not only look good and desirable to each other, it’s important they smell fragrant. Why? It’s because Marriage brings you into the closest form of relationship where you see, touch, feel, hear, taste and also smell each other. There can never be intimacy from a distance. No! Such a thing does not exist. Companionship and sexual intimacy in marriage all call for close contact, therefore you need to give attention to how you smell.

About two years ago, I went to a barbing salon for a haircut. As my Barber worked on my hair, his friend who was on a visit told how he invited a girl for Fornication. According to him, by the time he and the lady had undressed and started the act of Sin, the room was filled with a foul odour which according to him emanated from between the the two thighs of the lady. He said he regretted patronizing her. The reality however is that many of the pretty girls who are strutting about in jeans trousers are in this category. So also are many housewives. The belief that “the vagina is self cleansing” has deceived many of them into carelessness with intimate hygiene. Yes, the vaginal tunnel is self cleansing but not the vulva and all the hairy regions around it.

During every bathe, irrespective of whether you’re male or female, it’s your duty to give your entire body a thorough scrub with sponge and soap. This is a must everyday. So also must you observe good oral hygiene.

The use of aromatic powders and good perfumes in enhancing your love life is important to you as a Spouse. They’re not signs of worldliness. It’s a practice among housewives from olden times to bathe in the night just before bedtime and dab on scented powders on their neck and shoulders delicately. Many of us saw women do this but never understood. It was a preparation for closeness and intimacy with their husbands. The scented powders made the women more desirable to their husbands as they stirred their passions through the olfactory receptors.

In Marriage and Love Life it matters how you smell. Be always squeaky clean and fragrant for your spouse.

When I was young, there was a Deodorant called ODORONO. The advertisement always ended with: MAKES YOUR MAN WANT TO COME CLOSER. Back then I didn’t understand it because I was too young. But now as an adult, I know that it’s true: when you’re pleasantly fragrant, your Spouse really wants to come closer and even linger around you!
