Heart To Heart With My Dear Singles

Heart To Heart With My Dear Singles

Reading Time: 2 minutes

SINGLES –

Today I will like to do a father-to-child conversation with you. There are lots of things missing in this generation’s relationship life. As much as I wouldn’t be able to capture everything, I believe that you can get something from what I am about to tell you.

Be sincere, as singles in courtship, are you really in the relationship for the long haul or you are just looking for temporary pleasure? Are you being sincere with him or her? Are you sure you are not just leading her on?

Are you confident to say your motive is not the money you can get? Do you really love him or her? Are you protecting her or exploiting her emotions? Do you have some self-control? Can you delay gratification?

That is what separates the boys from the men and the sisters from ‘sistos!’ Are you sure you are not double-dating? Do you realize that when you are double-dating, you are already given to lying and deceptive spirits?

As a single brother or sister who is not in any relationship, are you preparing yourself? How many books have you read to prepare you? Who is your mentor? Who are you accountable to? Are you serving God with your time? Have you dealt with negative self-esteem issues? Are you really single and complete?

These things are the foundation of a good relationship, but it seems old fashion in today’s relationships.

To my dear singles, who are courting, who are you accountable to? Are you really open and truthful to your mentor?

While a lot of people might get to know that you are in a relationship; it’s ok for them to know about who you are going out with, you are only obligated to the person that you consider as a spiritual authority who you can confide in. He is the person you must see whenever you have issues beyond you. It is wrong to report your fiancée or fiancé all over the place. Be accountable to only one person, two at the most, that both of you respect.           

Imagine reporting your partner to one of your friends who is not yet in any relationship. What kind of advice do you think he/she will give you?

As singles in courtship, it is wrong to stay over the night in your fiancé’s house. There is no dignity in that. You went to greet him in another city and then he comes up with the card that he doesn’t know any other person you can stay within the whole city?

That is the more reason you should be cautious of such a person because that is an obvious relationship dysfunction. Do not shoot yourself in the leg.

Avoid compromise because every compromise is a legal invitation to the devil to come and wreck that relationship. When you give the devil an inch, he will take a mile!

Stay clean. Stay chaste! Stay with God and you will laugh last!

My marriage will be a blessing

What You Need From Your Spouse This Year

What You Need From Your Spouse This Year

Reading Time: 2 minutes

This is a few days gone in the new year. What will happen at the end of this year starts now. Our everyday steps, moving in the positive direction are so important.

As couples, let us think ahead. Let’s have a projection of what we want to achieve in our marriage. We have to get certain principles right.

There are a lot of things we do consciously and unconsciously that frustrate our marriages and are detrimental to the bliss of our marital journey.

Or what king, going to make war against another king, sitteth not down first, and consulteth whether he be able with ten thousand to meet him that cometh against him with twenty thousand?Luk 14:31 [KJV]

As we begin a new year, we should sit down in retrospect and cast a vision for ourselves.

You need to ask yourself what exactly do I want from my spouse and marriage. Put it in one or two sentences; something you can put before God and aim at.

Also, know that it takes two to tango. Just as you have certain expectations from your spouse, your spouse too has expectations. Break those expectations into smaller bits and have a vision for this year.

For example, I want my spouse to be more Godly this year. Find out all you need to know about being godly. Let that be your focus. Your spouse can tell you they expect you to be more homely. Humbly, accept that and keep working towards it through the year.

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

Let each one of us be committed to doing what our spouse demands of us. Stay focused to this. Do all you can this year to become a better person!

Read books that will show you and help you be a better and happier person. Commit your ways into God’s hands and make sure you talk to God about this. Measure your progress weekly. Don’t get discouraged in your pursuit and don’t become critical of yourself or your spouse.

May God strengthen us!

God bless our marriages.

CONFESSION FOR THE DAY
I will be a better version of myself this year

PRAYER FOR THE DAY
Lord, help me to be a better spouse

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Luke 14:31 [ERV] “If a king is going to fight against another king, first he will sit down and plan. If he has only 10,000 men, he will try to decide if he is able to defeat the other king who has 20,000 men.

ACTION PLAN FOR THE DAY
Forgive and forget

BIBLE READING FOR THE DAY
Luke 14
