How To Show Affection In Your Marriage

How To Show Affection In Your Marriage

Reading Time: 3 minutes

The temperature of our marriage must be kept hot always. To achieve that takes a whole lot of work and attention. Our marriage is like a garden that needs constant touch and tending. Not so much of hard labour but those everyday tending, that is what will make affection increase in our marriage.

Here are some practical ways to increase affection in your marriage

1. Give undivided attention to your spouse
It is disheartening when your spouse gives you little or no attention at all. You feel you don’t matter and your person is not relevant to your spouses’ life. You feel they can do without you and your input doesn’t count. This is not a good feeling and must be avoided if your marriage must work.

Learn to give your spouse your undivided attention. The best way to do this is by listening to what they have to say and looking at them eyeball to eyeball.

2. Take time to recreate together.
My husband is a very busy man and I am grateful to God for his multidimensional ability in painstakingly using his initiative at his work. It is translating to food on the table. Despite his busyness, he still finds time daily to play and make us laugh.

When you are with someone you love, you should make the atmosphere lively and environment conducive to laughing, Playing, joking, making jests, telling stories, playing games together, etc. Just find something to do together.

3. Respect each other’s space
You have to respect each other’s space. Let your spouse be. During the lockdown, my husband was quite busy putting our services online and doing other ministry stuff to meet a particular schedule. Then he finished his work and all the tension seem to have disappeared, so he wanted to play. It was however a wrong time for me to play. I was praying and studying. He did play for some time but he respected my time to study and pray. We respected each other’s space and were willing to understand and help each other grow.

4. Be each other friend
Being each other’s friend has to do with everything including being gist partners, cheerleader, number 1 fan, critic, prayer partner, jester, teaser, confidant, gossip, teacher, mentor, leader, you just name it. Just focus on each other. Do things that please each other. Follow the guiding words of 1 Corinthians 13. Love each other genuinely.

5. Be your unique self
Your uniqueness remains your best selling point that endears you to your spouse. Of course, try to be an improvement of who you are but don’t loss your flavor. Your flavor is the taste your spouse can never get anywhere else. Do things that your spouse can remember with only you.

Avoid nagging, being unfriendly, cold, harsh, or abusive. Try also not to be lazy, it takes hard work to build a marriage.

6. Make Jeru trip a priority
What Jeru trip does in marriage is that it cements the bonds between the couples together. It helps to reduce stress and tension in the marriage. If you know how to utilize this gift very well to your advantage, it can eliminate strife completely.

For some couples, after a good Jeru trip is the best time to discuss pressing issues. This is when your husband will listen to you well and give your his undivided attention. It is foolishness for any woman to deprive (or man, as the case may be) her husband Jeru trip. Denying him is not the solution rather it will complicate matters.

God bless your marriage.

My Children Are Not Afraid

My Children Are Not Afraid

Reading Time: 2 minutes

My children are not afraid; that should be your declaration. Fear is bad. Fear is evil. Fear is from the devil. Fear has torment. Fear means False Evidence Appearing Real.

2 Tim 1:7 (NKJV)For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.

The good news is that God has not given us the spirit of fear. In God, we have something more than fear.

Rather than fear, God has given us the spirit of power, love, and a sound mind. Declare that my children are not afraid.

When you are scared, what do you do?

Pray!

Praying helps you to get an understanding of what to do or not to do. Prayer is a tool to help you understand what is happening and how to deal with it.

Never allow fear into your life.

Also, talk to your parents about your fear. Don’t internalize. Talk to your teachers as well. Always learn to open up.

The major thing is that you shouldn’t allow fear – any of your false expectations appearing real, to stop you from doing what you’re supposed to do.

Don’t allow fear stop you from achieving your dreams. Declare again: My children are not afraid.

God doesn’t want you to have any form of fear and even if you do, He asks you to release them all to Him. He can carry them all and has the solution to solving them.

God bless you. Amen.

Prayer:
Lord, thank you for helping me with my fears. I am grateful for all the ways you do so. Amen.

Action point:
Release everything to God. Hold nothing back.

Declaration:
I am no longer a slave to fear, I am a child of God. My children are not afraid.

More Ways To Get  A Spouse From Psalm 23

More Ways To Get A Spouse From Psalm 23

Reading Time: 2 minutes

We began this topic few days back. If you missed the part 1, you can read it here.

3. God speaks in the stillness

He leadeth me beside the still waters.

The waters represent the word of the living God. He would lead you by His word in your heart. He would not necessarily speak to you through thunder and lightening neither will He slap you to get your attention, He leads you gently and will never force you to do anything.

He would not speak outside His word. If you cannot hear Him, then you have not been beside the still waters. Maybe, it has been long since you opened your Bible!

The still waters is not in the romantic soap operas or in the football matches. It is not in Time Magazine neither is it in philosophical novels. Not even in John Grisham. If that is all you spend your time doing at the expense of God’s word, you will have a hard time knowing His voice.

You have to consciously dedicate some time for Him, in the mornings, afternoons or nights. You don’t need any pastor or prophet to help you see something. You can see for yourself and you are the prophet of your own life.

Your pastor is to teach and guide you, not give you direction! Your pastor is not to choose a spouse for you; he can give suggestions though. Direction only comes beside the still waters, in God’s word. When you want to hear Him clearly, study His word dearly!

4. Get healed of hurts from broken relationships

He restoreth my soul:

This is pivotal to a successful relationship. Even in marriage, couples can hurt each other so badly they would start considering divorce. Hurts from the treatment you got from you Ex needs healing before proceeding to another relationship, or else that new person will suffer in your hands as a result of the hurts.

How do you get healed of hurts? How do you forgive somebody that cheated you and manipulated you and you are so hurt that you could shoot such a person?

God offers you an invitation to be healed

He restoreth my soul:

Yes, everywhere your soul has been punctured and ruptured, every area where your emotions were trampled, sampled and wrecked, God can and will restore!

He restoreth my soul:

God will reset your soul to factory default, if you allow Him! He will give you the grace to heal from wounds, forgive those who hurt you so that you can move on with your life.

CONFESSION FOR THE DAY
The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want

PRAYER FOR THE DAY
Lord, guide my with your shepherding grace

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Psalm 46:11The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge.

Here Is How To Focus On Your Marriage – Part 2

Here Is How To Focus On Your Marriage – Part 2

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Focus on your marriage to make it work at all costs and against all odds. Lay the bed on your marriage well, so you can enjoy all the beauty in your own marriage. Learn all the principles you need to learn, drop all bad habits you need to drop. Break all pride, cockiness, selfishness, deception, and let your own marriage work.

If you are already separated, decide what you want, walk with God, and let him show you what next to do. Whichever way, God loves you and still wants the very best for you.

How to focus on your own marriage

1. Focus on yourself
You are a vital part of that marriage. Discover yourself. Who are you? What are your desires, what makes you come alive, what makes you enjoy living? Love yourself. Be a happy you.

2. Focus on your spouse
As a married person, the most important human being on earth is your spouse. Begin to treat him/her as such. Let nothing absolutely come in between that. Let the whole world know, your spouse is so important to you.

Some people treat their wives like ‘one kobo’ and expect her to treat them like ‘ a million dollar’, it ain’t gonna work that way.

Seize every opportunity to let everyone know this one human being is number one on your list.

3. Focus on God
Now, it will be very foolish to want to focus on yourself and your spouse and leave God out. It can not work. God is the center that holds the pieces all together. God is the vital force that crowns all our efforts with success.

4. Focus on your strength
You have strengths. Whether it’s your beauty, your home-making skills, your intellect, your being jovial, whatever it is, focus on it. It’s your selling point in your marriage. Don’t let go of your strong points.it is what will make your spouse keep coming back to you.

Did you miss out on yesterday’s devotional, we’ve got you covered kindly go HERE. For KHC video Devotionals kindly go HERE

5. Focus on minimizing your weaknesses
Don’t ever make the mistake of pretending your weaknesses don’t exist. Don’t ignore them. Your weaknesses have the potential of destroying the marriage you are building, so destroy your weaknesses before they ever destroy your marriage.

6. Focus on satisfying yourselves
Why should you spend your energy, time, money on trying to please or satisfy another man’s wife? That’s called wastage.

Don’t go into an unprofitable venture. Ask yourself, if I satisfy her, how does it add to me or make my own marriage better?

Tend your own garden. When it’s harvest time, you won’t go and harvest on another man’s farm. It is not your own, so focus and build your own marriage.

He that tilleth his land shall be satisfied with bread: but he that followeth vain persons is void of understanding.

Pro 12:11

God bless you and bless your marriage.

CONFESSION FOR THE DAY
My marriage is blessed

PRAYER FOR THE DAY
Lord, teach me to embrace your love

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Isa 49:16 (GW) I have engraved you on the palms of my hands. Your walls are always in my presence.

ACTION PLAN FOR THE DAY
Register, pray and plan to attend camp meeting now

How To Give Hope With Your Words

How To Give Hope With Your Words

Reading Time: < 1 minute

There’s how to give hope to others using words. Words are strong tools that have an enormous strength to give hope to others. They can uplift somebody out of a bad situation.

Words are powerful. When a baby grows to a certain age, he/she is expected to start saying words, no matter how incoherent.

A classmate could be going through hard times at home and your words can give him hope. All the person might need could just be a “Your handwriting is cool”, “I like your shoes”, or “You are pretty”. 

Prov 13:12 (NLT) Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a dream fulfilled is a tree of life.

You don’t know how far your words can go in giving hope to someone who feels like nobody cares or sees him.

Another thing you need to know about words is that words are spirits. Since we know spirits don’t die, then words don’t die as well.

It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.

John 6:63 (KJV)

So the words you say today will go a long way to determine how your tomorrow will turn out to be.

Be a beacon of hope today. Use your words to raise up someone’s spirit. Give them hope that God loves them no matter what. Make your words count.

God keep you always. Amen.

Prayer:
Lord, use me as a beacon of hope to others. Teach me how to use my words well, in Jesus name. Amen.

Action point:
Ask the Holy Spirit to help you locate people that need to hear of God’s goodness and love for them.

Declaration:
My words bring life to the dead and hope to the hopeless.

Let’s Go Ahead and Jeun Soke

Let’s Go Ahead and Jeun Soke

Reading Time: 2 minutes

I taught a message recently at our church on “What It Really Means To Jeun Soke! Below is a two-minute snippet from the message, which is the crux of today’s devotional. Kindly watch in two minutes before proceeding to read.

The two women decided to boil their children and eat! What could lead to this?

And the king said unto her, What aileth thee? And she answered, This woman said unto me, Give thy son, that we may eat him to day, and we will eat my son to morrow. So we boiled my son, and did eat him: and I said unto her on the next day, Give thy son, that we may eat him: and she hath hid her son.

2Ki 6:28-29 (KJV)

What could engender such wickedness in a mother to the extent of making a meal out of her child? Women are not known for such expressions of wickedness and callousness? A woman’s love for her child is established.

But in the above scenario, mother’s love was thrown out of the window!

One of the women actually played out the script, her child was boiled, served, and eaten!

What led to this point where a mother was forced to do something abnormal is famine. They were famished and all sense of decorum flew away. Hunger led them into a place where absurdity took over.

Dear singles, you cannot allow your spirit man to be famished. The reason you find yourself in scenarios where you do things without mercy and consideration is because of spiritual hunger.

May you not get to the point where you boil your posterity.

You’ve got to learn to dive into God’s word and “Jeun Soke!

You’ve got to eat well before you embark on the journey of marriage, just as the angel encouraged Elijah to eat well because of the journey.

May God grant more understanding.

CONFESSION FOR THE DAY
I will not starve my spirit man

PRAYER FOR THE DAY
Pray for strength to stay with the word

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

And the king said unto her, What aileth thee? And she answered, This woman said unto me, Give thy son, that we may eat him to day, and we will eat my son to morrow.  So we boiled my son, and did eat him: and I said unto her on the next day, Give thy son, that we may eat him: and she hath hid her son.

2Ki 6:28-29 (KJV)

There was a loss of all sense of decorum and the norm, all because of intense hunger and famine. The reality is that a good man can easily become a nasty individual as a result of a famished soul.

Did you miss out on yesterday’s devotional, we’ve got you covered kindly go HERE. For KHC video Devotionals kindly go HERE

Dear husband and wife, it is not just wrong, but it is risky to be without food in your soul. It can lead to boiling of posterity. May that never be our portion in Jesus name!

The reason we often relate with our spouse without mercy or compassion is because we have not eaten well. Our spirit man is famished and it is causing us to misbehave and freely explore the absurdity.

Make up your mind as husband and wife, to eat well. You have to. It’s a decision you have to make. Your spiritual diet will often decide whether your seed or children will survive or not.

Dive into God’s word and Jeun Soke! Not just once daily and but as many times as you can. Keep eating that word, because that is where life is!

Good morning!

Taking Good Care Of Your Eyes

Taking Good Care Of Your Eyes

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Your eyes are a gift from God to behold this beautiful and wonderful world – the earth, He created. But the enemy has somehow found a way of introducing sin and evil into the world.
Through people on earth, many unholy things have almost become a norm in the world today. Though your eyes are to see but not everything you see is good for your eyes. The bible tells us that

“Your eye is like a lamp that provides light for your body. When your eye is healthy, your whole body is filled with light.

Matt. 6:22 NLT.

What you see affects your body. Witnessing a traumatic event affects your mind and body. Also when you watch morally unfit videos it affects your body.

Watch out for videos or movies that show sexual content even if they have PG16 labels on them. Remember God is Holy and watching such videos or films is an unholy act.

Don’t be fooled by the words of your friends or people that watching it won’t affect you. It will. The only safe way out of it is not to watch it and run away from friends, people, or situations that will want to make you do so.

It is better to obey God than to have the coolest friendships that will lead you to a lifetime of sexual depravity.
One way to know if what you are watching is bad is when you have to hide from others before you watch. That means you are not meant to watch it.

Remember, your eyes are a lamp for your body. They help to keep you from stumbling. Use them well just like you would use a lamp to see in the dark.

God bless and keep you safe in this dark world. Amen.

Prayer point:
Lord, help me to keep my eyes safe from looking at things that I shouldn’t be looking at.

Action point:
What have you been watching lately? If they are not in line with God’s, pray and ask God to help you overcome them. And tell your parents about it too.

Declaration:
My eyes will not behold iniquity. I watch what I see.

How You Can Get A Spouse From Psalm 23

How You Can Get A Spouse From Psalm 23

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Here are a few things to note from Psalm 23

1. He is personally interested in you

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

There is something personal about that. “The Lord is my…” It didn’t say the Lord is “our shepherd.”

“He is my….”

He will attend to me personally. He does not deal with me generally. Only God can do that. He attends to billions of people with billions of requests in billions of places at the same time without missing a beat or wiping sweat off His brow. He doesn’t make mistakes. He would not mistakenly give me a bicycle when my request was for a car.

The shepherding grace of God then is what I enjoy when I have a personal relationship with God, not just by being a member of a church.

The first thing I need to do then is to develop a conscious relationship with God, who is my shepherd.

No wonder Jesus Christ said:

I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.

John 10:14

There must of necessity be a personal knowing, a connectedness, a relationship with God upon which every successful courtship and marriage will stand.

He will personally attend specifically to my marital needs. He knows who I am, who I need, and who I don’t need!

He is my shepherd!

2. He wants your submission and obedience

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures:

He wants you to lie down and feed on His Word, and He doesn’t want you running around all over the place. Adam couldn’t get a wife until He slept. Some of us are just too awake. Sometimes, you just need to be still and know that He is God and that He is your shepherd.

It is not only your toasting skill that will get you a spouse, sometimes it is just your ability to be still and follow His direction. It is not all about the dressing and the perfumes alone, there is a place for His fragrance which comes by His favour!

Psalm 46:10Be still, and know that I am God:

Message translations says, “Step out of the traffic…”

That is why He calls you a sheep, even though you might not like that particular creature. You probably prefer a lion. But the sheep actually shows the true vulnerability of the Homo-Sapien. However, the sheep that stay with the shepherd is even more powerful than the lion!

Stay obedient to Him!

CONFESSION FOR THE DAY
The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want a good spouse

PRAYER FOR THE DAY
Lord, guide me with your shepherding grace to find the right spouse.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Psalm 46:11The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge.

ACTION PLAN FOR THE DAY
Read and meditate on Psalm 23

Here Is How To Focus On Your Marriage

Here Is How To Focus On Your Marriage

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Good morning, married folk out there. God bless your marriage. God is committed until your marriage becomes all it has the potential to become.

Your marriage can work out beautifully well. You can enjoy and have that dream marriage you always desire. Don’t for once ever feel it can never happen.

If you believe it can never happen, gosh, you just announced it won’t happen. Don’t give up, but be willing and obedient to do and give your marriage all it takes to make it work.

You know married couples should begin to have this attitude of ‘my marriage is personal and I got to make it work’.

You know while growing up, my dad will always say this proverb, ‘ as you lay your bed, so you will lie on it’. Then, I would wonder, why is he worried about how I lay my bed?

I don’t have a care about how my bed is, once I hit the bed, I don’t have enough time to notice how it is, I just sleep.

Did you miss out on yesterday’s devotional, we’ve got you covered kindly go HERE. For KHC video Devotionals kindly go HERE

Later, I realized it’s not just about my physical bed, but it’s about life generally. Talking about our physical bed, it’s very good to learn to make our beds well and train our kids to do so too.

Someone said, laying your bed before leaving the house every morning gives you a sense of achievement. It may look small, but somewhere in your sub-conscious you feel good, you have at least a good, well laid bed…lol

For us married, the bed is also very important.

Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.

Heb 13:4

My husband will jokingly say, the bed is the most important furniture to the couple. I want to agree with that.

The bed is the legalized furniture for love making. Of course not the only furniture, several others have joined in the quest for ‘orgasmic’ love making.

Now, talking about focusing on your marriage, you have to decide what you want your marriage to look like. No doubt there are a lot of factors that may want to stand against this but you have to stand your ground. Stand your ground to live a worthy legacy for your children and generation yet unborn.

How exactly do we focus on our marriage?

I will show us tomorrow.

God bless our marriage.

CONFESSION FOR THE DAY
My marriage is blessed

PRAYER FOR THE DAY

Overcome The Loss Of A Dear Friend

Overcome The Loss Of A Dear Friend

Reading Time: < 1 minute

Losing a friend can be so painful. But there is the need to be comforted, for us to make progress in our lives. Dear child, overcome the loss of a dear friend.

Jesus told the disciples that in His father’s house there are many mansions there. He also mentioned to them that He was going to prepare a place for them.

In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.

John 14:2 (KJV)

Jesus left the earth so that He could make heaven ready for us. As Christians, who truly love and obey Jesus’ instructions heaven has been made ready for us and our loved ones.

Understand that you would meet them again. In heaven, you all would be together again. The bible tells us that in heaven there won’t be anything like disease or death.

He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There won’t be death anymore. There won’t be any grief, crying, or pain, because the first things have disappeared.”

Rev 21:4 (ISV) 

Thank God for this fact and let it be your comfort. Though the pain of the loss is still there, rest in the assurance that you will see them again.

May the Lord comfort you always. Amen.

Prayer:
Lord, thank You for heaven. Thank You because I will see my loved ones again.

Action plan:
Thank God for the gift of your loved ones. Thank Him for they know Jesus.

Declaration:
Thank you, Lord, because I will see my friends again. I overcome.

What It Really Means To Jeun Soke By Pastor Dunamis (27th October 2021)

What It Really Means To Jeun Soke By Pastor Dunamis (27th October 2021)

Reading Time: 3 minutes

What It Really Means To Jeun Soke was taught by Rev. Dunamis Okunowo on the 27th of October 2021 at Shouts of Grace Center, Joke Plaza, Beside Trans Amusement Park, Bodija-UI Road, Ibadan.

In his teaching, Rev. Dunamis made mention of the following important points:

Food is extremely important; the way you look today has somewhat to do with what you eat.

One of the first instructions of God to man was about what to eat and what not to eat.

And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, “Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat; but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.”

Genesis 2:16-17 (NKJV)

The devil tempted man through food.

Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said to the woman, “Has God indeed said, ‘You shall not eat of every tree of the garden’?”

Genesis 3:1 (NKJV)

Food can make a man lose his blessing.

And Jacob gave Esau bread and stew of lentils; then he ate and drank, arose, and went his way. Thus Esau despised his birthright.

Genesis 25:34 (NKJV)

However food is for strength, not for pleasure.

And the angel of the LORD came back the second time, and touched him, and said, “Arise and eat, because the journey is too great for you.”

1 Kings 19:7 (NKJV)

Blessed are you, O land, when your king is the son of nobles, And your princes feast at the proper time– For strength and not for drunkenness!

Ecclesiastes 10:17 (NKJV)

Hunger can birth wickedness.

So we boiled my son, and ate him. And I said to her on the next day, ‘Give your son, that we may eat him’; but she has hidden her son.”

2 Kings 6:29 (NKJV)

You can’t afford to be hungry in the spirit, if not you will do things you did not imagine you can do.

It is when your spirit man is starved/famished that you slide into the flesh.

We are still considering what it really means to jeun soke.

How To eat

1. Find that which you need to eat

Your words were found, and I ate them, And Your word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart; For I am called by Your name, O LORD God of hosts.

Jeremiah 15:16 (NKJV)

There’s first a finding process. This is a deliberate process.
There’s a labour of faith, where you labour for what to eat.

Before you embark on any journey (marriage, business, etc), eat well! The reason we often fall flat on our face is cos we don’t eat well before embarking on those tasks.

You eat for strength.
When you find and eat the word, a testimony will surely emerge from it

After you find, you must eat. The eating process is meditation. First of all you memorize it so that you can turn it in your heart anywhere you are. This is what it really means to jeun soke.

God cannot refuse His Word!

The more you think on that Scripture, the more circumstances align to make it come to pass.
God listens to His Word, not to some emotions or sentiments.

What you find and eat is what will work for you.

2. To eat is to obey

If you are willing and obedient, You shall eat the good of the land;

Isaiah 1:19 (NKJV)

3. You take communion constantly.

And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to them and said, “Take, eat; this is My body.”

Mark 14:22 (NKJV)

The problem of humanity began with eating; the deliverance lies in eating too – eating the word, His body, and His blood.

The instructions of God are your gateways to wealth, increase, breakthrough, etc.

When you eat, it will show in your result.
