ππA DIVORCED MANπππππ ONCE SHARED WITH ME WHAT HE came to realize after the breakup of his marriage. He told me that one mistake he used to make in those days was that he used to deny his wife of sexual intimacy but did not know at the time that it was wrong. He was withholding sexual love from her and the consequence was that she was sexually undernourishedπ₯Ήπ₯Ήπ₯Ή. This was a major factor that led to their unfortunate divorce. It’s a vivid example of what God’s Word says in Hosea 4: 6a, “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.” His ignorance became his marital undoing.
Dear Spouses, the earlier you know that sexual intimacy is foodππ₯π₯₯π½ππππ for your marital life, the better for you. What pounded yam, jolof riceπ, meat ππ, akpu, ΕjΔ-akpaπππ, etc, are to your physical body is what sexual intimacy is to the very life of your Marriage.
If your child would cry if he’s underfed day after day and would begin to get attracted to your neighbour’s children’s food, doesn’t that tell you that your dear Spouse would also be tempted to look at other ladies or men when all you do is give them one teaspoonful of lovemaking in a fortnight when their appetite craves for so much more?
During warsπ₯π₯π₯, people have been known to eat lizardsπ¦π¦π¦ as a result of extreme hunger and starvation. During the siege of Samaria by the Syrians, hunger in the land was so extremely acute that women killed, cooked and ate their children!(2 Kings 6:26-30). When you sex-starve your Spouse, intentionally or otherwise, you’re driving them out into the wild wilderness of immorality and only God knows what will befall them there. But be sure of this: God will hold you accountable for pushing them into the arms of Harm.
Now, how does God want you to give the sexual GIFT He’s entrusted you with for your Spouse?(1 Corinthians 7:2-5). He wants you to scatter it! Yes, God wants you to be a sex scatterer in your marriage!That’s the mode of GIVING we see in our anchor scripture for today:
“THERE IS THAT SCATTERETH, AND YET INCREASETH; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty.”(Proverbs 11: 24)
Please, pay close attention and listen attentivelyπππ.
Many of the wivesππππππ believe that giving themselves to their husbands generously in Sex will make him look down on them. That’s an unfounded suspicion. It’s a lie from the pit of Hell!
And there are many husbands, particularly church office holders, who don’t give romantic and sexual attention to their wives as much as they should because they ignorantly believe that it’s a mark of spirituality to be as restrained in touching their wife as possible. Infact, I’ve read a female Christian Leader who wrote that the most regrettable set of men for a lady to fall into their hands for marriage are clergymenπ€π€π€ because the lady would be thoroughly love-starved!
Sir/Ma, God gave you the gifts of romantic and sexual love to give to your Spouse in SCATTERING FASHION! That is, GIVE IT TO YOUR MATE EXTRAVAGANTLY, GENEROUSLY AND LAVISHLY! And when you do, the first part of our theme scripture tells us the outcome. It says the one that scatters INCREASES! So when you give your body to your husband or wife generously, you’re increased and not the other way round.
And it’s not only in the romantic and sexual aspects of your marriage that God wants you to be big handed in giving. He wants to see you exercise this same scope of generosity in every other aspect of your relationship with your Spouse.
When you assist your wife with cleaning the house π π π π or kitchen work, do it heartily and even go the extra mile.
If you’re, for now, the breadwinner of the home because your husband is still struggling with his business and yet to find his footing, do it with magnanimity and with all quietness.
The second half of our anchor scripture tell us that stinginess with the gifts of God leads to poverty. There’s marital poverty. Perhaps, you didn’t know. There’s also sexual poverty, romantic poverty, relational poverty, etc, in marriage. Put very bluntly, there’s erection poverty and vaginal poverty.
Whether husband or wife, your sexual organs need to be exercised regularly to function at their best. This means that the more often spouses put their sexual organs to use in sexual intercourse, the healthier those organs get and the more proficient the Spouses get in their usage of them. According to Dr Tim LaHaye, a leading American Marriage Counselor and Author, “Erections today are your best defense against impotence tomorrow. It’s an old saying but true: if you don’t use it, you lose it.”
And for wives, non usage of your female genitals over a long period of time, out of anger with your husband or for some other reasons, could lead to vaginal shrinkage and atrophy.
So use it in loving your husband to keep it healthy and fresh.ππ
