The Marital Way Of Escape

The Marital Way Of Escape

Reading Time: 2 minutes

The Marital Way Of Escape. As the couple sat before the counseling table, frustrations laced every word spoken, and the expressions of their mien betrayed their hearts, they were both unhappy.

Their finances were in a mess. They were neck-deep in debt that refused to move.

Their career choices seemed out of place, and their bank accounts were in a coma.

Health-wise, they were not having the best of times.

The problems seemed to rear up their heads in every area of their lives.

What should they do?

What is that one thing that can bail you out irrespective of what you are facing?

As you navigate through the path of marriage as husband and wife, what is the most important thing?

What is that one thing that will solve every and any issue in marriage?

What is that one thing a husband and wife should never joke with?

The Marital Way Of Escape

Here we go.

No matter what you are facing right now in your marriage or home, no matter how the problems seemed insurmountable or gargantuan, you can get out.

The scriptures declare

1Co 10:13
There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.

There is nothing you are going through right now that does not have a way of escape.

Why is there a way of escape always?

Because God is faithful.

He will never abandon you! Read that again! Never!

Again, if you are a child of God, everything, I mean everything you are going through right now is not designed to kill you or snuff out the life in you.

They are designed to bring out the best in you, build your faith muscle and get you to that place where you can fearlessly take mountains and cities.

Then finally, understand there is always a way of escape.

Mortgage, buying a house, health issues, fruit of the womb, nagging wife, uncooperative husband, wayward children, impossible debts, bills to pay…and the list is endless.

Whatever it is, there is A WAY OF ESCAPE!

The Marital Way Of Escape

What is that way of escape?

That is our bone of contention this morning.

The way of escape is the way of God’s word.

In the midst of darkness, you only need a word that will lighten your path.

That is your way of escape. A word from the Lord. 

You don’t need too many words.

You only need a word.

The word is the seed.

300 million sperm released. But only one is needed to fertilize and bring forth a baby, your man-child.

In the same way, you only need a word to bring forth that baby!

Sit down, study, meditate, and get a word from the Lord!

That is the way of escape!

Handsome and Beautiful, That Is All?

Handsome and Beautiful, That Is All?

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Handsome and Beautiful, That Is All?

Let him be tall and handsome. Deep voice. Six-packs. Muscular. Gentle giant.

I want her to be beautiful. Hot legs. Head turner. Bust and behind. The hips and the lips. Slayer.

You write down a list. Great.

As a teenager, do you remember, when you think love, that’s all you wanted?

Fast forward many years after, priorities have changed.

Handsome and Beautiful, That Is All?

Married folk will tell you that some things will not be for life.

Some are great and work at it and they look great for a long time.

But genetics and nature are not really nice to everybody.

So, married people will tell you that the “tall” may be there for life, but the “tall” is no longer straight.

Somewhere along the journey, pot belly showed up. Stubborn and recalcitrant, it refused to go.

Shebi you saw the dad before? Why surprised?

Son will resemble father now?

The deep voice remained, unchanging, but then it came with deep snores. It’s a total package. Melody unto the Lord.

The six packs. Eventually and eventfully collapses into an amusement park. A bald head showed up. Cream would not work.

The gentle giant. The giant remained. Gentle left. Only God knows where.

Oh, the lady?

Ever beautiful. The legs is still somehow hot, but they got bigger. She loves “swallow,” hot swallow, and so the hot swallow swallowed the hot in the legs and left the big legs.

She doesn’t like wearing short skirts again.

Head no longer turn.

Handsome and Beautiful, That Is All?

Bust outline is no longer clear, tummy got bigger, thanks to five bubbling children!

The hips got bigger, and the lips which you think are solely for kissing, now have the capacity to shade somebody! She is no longer a slayer, nobody is ready to die.

I have said all of these to tell you that you should not be rigid with your “list” when it comes to marriage.

Some things will not be forever.

So many factors like genetics, personal discipline, eating habits and so many others determine what a person will look like.

After you hit forty, the body slows down in breaking down food. More fat settle.

God knows the best for you.

Never ever marry someone you loathe or hate, but never ever reject someone God is leading you to because of your strict idiosyncrasies.

God has a marital map for you.

Follow it.

Trash your unrealistic list and find out the heart of God.

Psa 81:13 (MSG)  
“Oh, dear people, will you listen to me now? Israel, will you follow my map?

You want to marry a rich person. Will the person be rich for life? Will you divorce if he gets broke?

There are rich people on their way to being broke! And yes, there are broke people on their way to being rich!

God’s GPS is superior to the one your brain invented.

Cooperate with His leading.

Short people can be nice. And they can be nasty.

Tall people can be brutal. And they can be gentle.

Stop insisting. Start listening to God.

He’s got your back, and He has you in mind!

May God bless your relationship!

Managing Rejection and Disappointment

Managing Rejection and Disappointment

Reading Time: < 1 minute

Managing Rejection and Disappointment

Loved ones frequently abandon us. Life happens, and relationships fade.

What appears to be promising frequently falls apart.

Wedding arrangements are frequently canceled or shortened.

Jilting stories, abandonment stories, cheating escapades, and infidelity adventures are all common occurrences.

As a result, many leave.

What occurs in such situations?

People may walk away but God will never walk away.

Managing Rejection and Disappointment

Let us delve at the scriptures.

Isa 54:10 (MSG)  
For even if the mountains walk away and the hills fall to pieces, My love won’t walk away from you, my covenant commitment of peace won’t fall apart.” The GOD who has compassion on you says so

Eh! That should be read several times!

My love will not abandon you.

My peace covenant will not be broken.

Whoever wishes to walk away may do so, but as long as God’s love does not walk away, everything will work out for you.

I want you to look disappointment in the eyes and exclaim, “God’s love will not leave me!”

Stop sobbing.

Allow God’s love to heal you.

Managing Rejection and Disappointment

God utilized a nearly impossible scenario to demonstrate the depth of his love.

Mountains, as we all know, do not walk.

We all know that hills don’t just break apart.

But even if the mountain goes for a walk and never returns, and the hills disperse beyond repair, God promises that His love will not go!

Be optimistic.

Take pleasure in that love.

Swim in that ocean of love.

You will discover healing, restoration, and blessings beyond your wildest dreams in that love.

I’ll end here.

May you live long and prosper!

From A Love Affair Into Marriage

From A Love Affair Into Marriage

Reading Time: 2 minutes

From A Love Affair Into Marriage

Dexterity in asking a lady out is not the victory, getting married to a good woman is. Having a true help-meet in the journey of life is one the sweetest things that can ever happen to you.

Changing your status from single to “Engaged” is not yet anything to rejoice about, getting married to a good faithful, responsible man is where the victory is.

There are men who are very spiritual but are completely unromantic. They don’t know more than to be quoting Bible.

Such men will have Bible study first upon any meeting before they even greet you. It is good. You are a spirit but don’t forget you are living here on earth.

From A Love Affair Into Marriage

It is true that marriage is made in heaven, but it is also a truism that it is lived on earth.

On the other side of the divide, there are those who are very romantic, but their spiritual life is a write-off.

The most beautiful thing then is to have a romantic and spiritual partner!

The first and major step is to become that yourself. Become the kind of person you want to attract.

Relationships don’t work out because you are convinced.

It works out because you work at it.

Relationships don’t work out because you really love the person.

It works out because you first love yourself.

Forgive easily.

Pray.

Work on becoming better.

Keep improving.

Read and study.

Going into relationships and coming out over and over again is not God’s plan for you.

Sit down and find out what went wrong.

From A Love Affair Into Marriage

Learn all you can learn.

Slow down. Don’t rush into a new relationship immediately after a failed one.

If you skip this process, the relationship will soon end as well.

I am praying for you, God will pilot your relationship into marriage in Jesus’ name.

All things will work out together for your good.

God will fill your mouth with laughter.

God will collapse all the wasted years and bring beauty from the ashes.

All will be well with you, this is my prayer for you this day.

Be blessed!

Before You Marry 

Before You Marry 

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Before You Marry 

Any form of abuse isn’t funny at all.

Don’t cope with it.

From time to time, I am beleaguered with tales of abuse from the ones who once professed love to their wives.

As singles who are not yet married, you have to know what you are going for.

After the wedding, your choices are limited and restricted.

As singles, this is the time you need to borrow yourself “some brain” and stop holding to what is obviously faulty from the very foundation.

Before You Marry 

If you are being abused in a relationship, male or female, hit the pause button.

Don’t think a wedding will change things. It will not.

A wedding will not transform anybody.

Any change you couldn’t make as a single would not be easier to make after the wedding.

So, be careful of a wilful abuser who keeps telling you he will change after hitting you.

Yes, there could be a mistake and flaring of temper, which is wrong anyway.

But when there is an angry partner, always fuming at little provocations, getting angry at everything, hitting you over and over, and then apologizing, you need to be careful before you sentence yourself to a lifetime of abuse.

The Bible did warn about such people.

Pro 22:24 (KJV)  
Make no friendship with an angry man; and with a furious man thou shalt not go:

It is a clear warning.

Don’t be friends with such people not to talk of dating them.

Why would the Bible warn you?

Pro 22:25 (KJV)  
Lest thou learn his ways, and get a snare to thy soul.

Pro 22:25 (MSG)  
Bad temper is contagious— don’t get infected.

Before You Marry 

One can quickly become hurt, bitter, nasty, and even evil because of marriage with a wicked partner.

Be careful.

Do not invite afflictions that are not supposed to be part of your life.

May God bless your relationship.
