Praise the Lord – Hallelujah!
Please still remain standing there.
I want to thank my mummy and my daddy: Pastor and Pastor (Mrs) Adeboye for this privilege to be here tonight – am not taking it for granted.
And of course, I want to say Thank You also to my husband; Pastor Peter Amenkhienan (The Assistant General Overseer) – Thank you so much for the opportunity.
And to all the Committee Members.
Praise the Lord – Hallelujah!
I have been asked to speak on: “A GLORIOUS RELATIONSHIP”
But before we have our seat; can the Choir please take that song again and let us take it slowly and meditatively – yielding and committing our lives into the Hands of The Living God.
SONG:
Daily as I live,
Often as I breathe,
Let my whole life
Be an expression of your Grace
CHORUS
We cry Haba father,
Halloweth be your Name
Halloweth be your Name
Halloweth be your Name
PRAYERS
1. Open your mouth now and cry unto God: Father, let my Life give Glory to your Holy Name.
Open your mouth – That I have been called into Glory, have not been called into shame, have not been called into disgrace.
Lord, once again I cried to you tonight; let my whole Life be an expression of your Holy Name.
In Jesus Precious Name we Pray – Amen.
2. You are going to cry to God again and say: Father, let my Life not be an ugly story in the Name of Jesus.
Open your mouth. Our Convention Theme is: His Power and His Glory. Talk to God that my Life will never be an ugly story. Let the whole world feel my impact.
Open your mouth and talk to God. Don’t let my impact be a Negative one but rather a Positive one.
In Jesus Precious Name we have Prayed – Amen.
3. Preamble: Quickly let us open Bible to the Book of 1 Samuel 16: 14-19.
14. But the Spirit of the LORD departed from Saul and an evil Spirit from the LORD troubleth him.
15. And Saul’s servants said unto him, Behold now an evil Spirit from God troubleth thee.
16. Let our Lord now command thy servants which are before thee, to seek out a man, who is cunning player on an harp: and it shall come to pass, when the evil Spirit from God is upon thee, that he shall play with his hand, and thou shalt be well.
17. And Saul said unto his servants, Provide me now a man that can play well, and bring him to me.
18. Then answered one of the servants, and said, Behold, I have seen a son of Jesse the Bethlehemite, that is cunning in playing, and a mighty Valiant man, and a man of war, and prudent in matters and a comely Person, and the LORD is with him.
19. Wherefore Saul sent messengers unto Jesse, and said, Send me David thy son, which is with the sheep.
What am trying to say tonight is that:
You many not need any great man anywhere to recommend you, to bring about your breakthrough where you will now be operating in Power and Glory.
The voice that brought David to his Place of Breakthrough was just the voice of a servant.
I want you to open your mouth tonight and said: Let a voice be raised for me. Where I have no voice, let a voice be raised for me – Open your mouth and talk to God.
In Jesus Precious Name we Pray – Amen.
4. Maybe you don’t understand me: You may be a Solution to a Problem. But if you are somewhere that you are not known, you are not seen or you are not recognized; then how can that Solution that you have be brought about?
But there is a Young man; he was kept at the background and yet God needed him somewhere. And it was a servant that has to recommend him.
Why don’t you open your mouth again – sincerely again and talk to God: Father, where I have no voice; let a voice be raised for me that will lead me to my Breakthrough – Where I will be reigning in Power and in Glory.
Open your mouth and talk to God – Amen!
You can have your seat
… Having a GLORIOUS RELATIONSHIP!
When something is fabulous, something is wonderful; that thing can be said to be Glorious.
Something that is Glorious is very beautiful and impressive.
If you described something as Glorious; you are emphasizing that it is wonderful and it makes you to be very happy.
So, Glorious can be defined as Possessing or Deserving Glory.
Now, what is Relationship?
Relationship is simply a connection, association or involvement.
In Psalms 19:1; the Bible said that the Heaven declares the Glory of God and the Firmament shows His Handiwork.
And in Psalms 8: 4-5 says:
4. What is man that thou art mindful of him? And the son of man that thou visitest him?
5. For thou hast made him a little lower than the Angels and hast crowned him with Glory and Honour.
Brethren, I want you to know tonight that when God created you; He created you with Glory.
Infact, human being were made for the Glory of God – Isaiah 43:7.
So therefore, God made human being in the Image of God to carry His Glory.
So, He expected us that in any Relationship that we are going to be having; we have to Portray the Glory of God.
Our Relationship must bring Glory to His Holy Name.
No wonder, there was a Conversation between Moses and God. You find this in the Book of Exodus 33: 12-19.
And Moses Prayed to God: Please show me your Glory.
And God responded in Verse 19 and told Moses that I will make all my Goodness to Pass before you.
Hence, whenever you see the Manifestations of God’s Goodness in any area of your Life; you can described it as God’s Glory.
So, anywhere that you have been experiencing shame, in any area that you have been experiencing disappointment; that is not the Promise of God for you.
And my Prayer for you tonight is that the Original Intention of God for your Life shall be made Manifested in Jesus Name – Amen.
Because God’s Presence in a Man makes all the difference.
A Life without the Glory of God will always end in shame and disgrace.
Anything that has been causing shame in your Life, anything that has been causing you to have disgrace in your Life; God is going to put a Permanent End to it this Weekend in the Name of Jesus – Amen.
And we need to know that the Glory of God in your Relationship means that you must revealed the Character and Image of God since you are made in the Image of God.
And God declared that He intentionally made you to Glorify Him.
That means that in everything that you do; you must always reveal the Character of God.
And the only way that we can see this Image of God is to look at our Lord Jesus Christ because Jesus Christ Glorified God the Most because He revealed God the Most – He is God made in the Flesh (John 1:1; John 1:14; Colossians 1:15 and Hebrews 1:3).
So, if you want to Glorify God in your Relationship. That means that you must cultivate to live your Life according to the Image of God that has been Personified in the Life of Jesus Christ.
Praise the Lord – Hallelujah!
So, to Glorify God in your Relationship; you must reflect Christ in your Relationship.
How do you reflect Christ in your Relationship?
We are told that the Word became Flesh and dwelleth among us.
And we are reflecting His Glory – Glory as of the Father; Full of Grace and Truth – John 1:14.
Jesus Christ is the Image of the Invincible God; the First Born of the Creation. He is the Radiance of the Glory of God and the exact input of His Nature. And He upholds the Universe by His Power.
So, if you want to know how to Glorify God; we must know Jesus Christ in a Personal Way.
Many of us, its true that we said that we have been Born Again but sometimes the way we behaves our Character doesn’t really reflect the Glory of God.
And tonight, from what our daddy wants us to have during this Convention is that we should go back reflecting the Glory of Jesus Christ in our Life.
Praise the Lord – Hallelujah!
And I want you to know that God is willing to get as close to you as you are willing to get close to Him.
I need to ask you tonight: How close are you to God?
Most of us lag behind in the area of our very close Relationship with the Almighty God.
Yet God desires a Closer Relationship with us to walk side-by-side with Him pointing things out to us and showing us the Way ahead.
I mean that the desire of every Christian should be that: Lord I want to see you more clearly; to follow you more closely and to love you more dearly.
I remembered in our Primary School then, we have a song that we sang almost everyday.
It says:
Day by day
Oh, Dear Lord
Three things I Pray:
To see thee more Clearly
Love thee more Dearly
Follow thee more Nearly
Day by day
I didn’t know whether that is still our Prayer today: To have a closer Relationship with God because the closer your Relationship is with God, the more you will be able to portray a Glorious Relationship with other People around you.
Praise the Lord – Hallelujah.
So, I want to quickly let you know that the first (1st) step in moving closer to God is through Jesus Christ.
No wonder He said in the Book of Revelation 3:20 – He said: Behold I stand by the Door and Knock. If anyone hears my voice and Opens the Door; I will come in to him and eat with him and him with Me.
God is continually knocking on the Door of our Hearts, ready and willing to come in and meet us in every parts of our lives because each of us are created for Intimacy, free from shame and rejection.
But He won’t be satisfied until our hearts find a home with our Loving Father.
Brethren, God is still knocking at the Door of your hearts today – Asking you to allow Him to come in and fill you with a Life of a Glorious Relationship.
He loves to move near so that the dry and weary part of your Life are filled to Overflowing with the Loving Waters of His Love.
And the first (1st) thing we need to do away with is sin in our lives – This is very, very important.
You may be wondering, what is sin again in this one?
I want to bring to you tonight that when we are talking of sin; sin literally means: “MISSING THE MARK”
Remember in the Book of Romans 3:23; the Bible says that: All have sinned and fall short of the Glory of God.
So, you cannot have a Glorious Relationship with anybody if you are still “Missing The Mark” – This is very, very important.
When we Act like God, we are reflecting His Image and hitting the Mark of Glorifying Him.
Praise the Lord – Hallelujah.
So, sin is Missing The Mark of Glorifying God.
I want you to examine your hearts wherever you are seated or reading now: Where am I Missing the Mark in my Life and in my Walk with God.
Because, if you are Missing the Mark; you are not Living a Glorious Life.
And if you are not Living a Glorious Life; you cannot have a Glorious Relationship with anybody.
Praise the Lord – Hallelujah.
The Second (2nd) thing that you needed to do is: “Total Obedience” to God.
Obedience gives you the Knowledge of God
And that was why in John 2:5; the mother of Jesus Christ told the Disciples and the servants that whatsoever He asked you to do, do it.
And it is still the same cry today: Whatsoever God has commanded you in His Holy Words you must do it in order to have a Glorious Life.
But many of us we are missing the Mark of Glorifying God.
Why? – Especially we that are Youths of today.
Many of us are involved in Pre-Marital sex and we lack the Obedience that will make us to reflect God’s Glory in our lives.
Let me let you know: Pre-Marital sex violates God’s Plan as established in Creation.
And to Abuse God’s Original Plan by reversing sex before Marriage; tampers with God’s Design.
The Abuse of sex leads to Broken Relationship, Diseases, Single Parents Homes etc.
Some have even through it open the door to Negative Spiritual Influence upon their lives and this is very unfortunate.
Am not talking of unbelievers; am talking of Believers in the Church.
And this is the right time for us to make a Turning Around and go back to our Father and ask for Mercy from Him.
Praise the Lord – Hallelujah.
In the Book of 1 Corinthians 7:2; the Bible makes us to know that because of the Temptation to sexual immorality; each man should have his own wife and each woman her own husband.
God’s Original Plan for Marriage and sex is a Total Package or Total Deal – There is nothing like Pre-Marital, there is nothing like all kinds of rubbish that we are calling it today in the name of Modern world.
And when we are doing this, we are not Glorifying God in our Relationship.
God’s Words addresses Social Immoralities approximately twenty five (25) times in the Bible.
And the Will of God is your Sanctification; that you abstain from sexual immorality. This we will find in the Book of 1 Thessalonians 4: 3-5.
3. For this is the Will of God, even your Sanctification that ye should abstain from formication:
4. That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in Sanctification and Honour;
5. Not in the list of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God.
That means that you have to be different from the unbelievers.
But if your life is not different from the unbelievers that have not known Jesus Christ; then you are bringing shame into the Kingdom of God.
God has made it clear from the beginning that He is a jealous God and He disapproves of all kinds of idols.
Anytime you disobey the Word of God; remember that the Bible says that He is no longer dwelling outside there but you invite Him into your Life.
He has come to dwell in your heart. And if you are making Him dirty; then you are making God to be jealous.
Praise the Lord – Hallelujah.
And God said that He will judge the sexually immoral. That is clear from the Book of Hebrews 13:4.
“Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.
So, to play around the sacred thing like sex is very dangerous.
You may be wondering why am I emphasizing this – Our Pastor said that I should emphasize it to you.
You are too sexually active for your age.
I remembered Daniel: Daniel was young as you when he was taken away into Captivity.
And he got there and made up his mind that he is not going to partake of the King’s meat.
For that Period, he refused to eat the King’s meat but guess what because he became Prime Ministers over four (4) or five (5) Governments.
Likewise, if you want your life to be Glorious, if you want to reign and rule in Power and Glory then you must know the right time.
If you do not abstain yourself from immorality, you can never attained to the Destiny that God has Ordained for your Life.
Praise the Lord – Hallelujah.
If you want to Glorify God in your Christian Relationship, you have to revealed the Character of God in that Relationship.
The more you imitate Jesus Christ, the more you will wear the Image of God.
We can never act like Jesus Christ without the Holy Spirit living in us.
Learning to Glorify God is a living pursuit. But none of us can do that without the Grace of God.
So this evening, the Key word is RELATIONSHIP.
And I want you to know that you can show love to someone without having much of Relationship.
But that is not the aim.
And a Good example can be found in Luke 10: 25-37.
The Good Samaritan showed love to the wounded Jews man but he didn’t know him or have any Relationship with him – He just took care of him and then paid somebody to then continue.
That is not the one that we are talking about.
That is “Real Love”.
And Jesus Christ commended the Good Samaritan. But God wants us to move further in all our Relationship.
I am saying that the kind of Relationship God is asking from us in the Church in this End time is: “A Call to Love Through Relationship”.
Some People are starving of Relationship of Love even in the Church.
Others are sacred of Relationship and they want to keep People away at a distance because they feel that everybody is Hypnotical.
Praise the Lord – Hallelujah.
We are saying that we should improve in nurturing an atmosphere where Relationship is highly valued.
And am going to quickly use four (4) Adjectives to describe the kind of Relationship we are talking about.
The Relationship we long to see and valued; that should be visible in the Fellowship should be:
- It should be Personal.
- It should be Deepening.
- It should be Supportive.
- It should be Faith-Building.
… I will quickly break it down.
1. PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP
I will like to use Jesus Christ as an example.
Remember that Jesus Christ has a Concentric Increasing Relationship.
There were the seventy (70) that He appointed and sent out in Luke 10:1
Then, there were the twelve (12) that He chose to be with Him throughout His entire Ministry.
Then after then, there were the three (3) that He normally takes out when there are important things to carry out – That is Peter, James and John.
He took them out during the Mount of Transfiguration and when He was going to Heal that little girl.
And then; there is still another one – “John The Beloved”. The one that they said was close to Jesus Christ Heart.
But that doesn’t mean that Jesus Christ was forming a clique.
Rather in all of these Relationship; Jesus Christ is making us to know that there are ways and means of having Glorious Relationship that will lead us to a Higher Heights that is not Negative.
Praise the Lord – Hallelujah.
… Jesus Christ has some Deep Personal Relationship but He was Open and Outgoing in all of them.
2. DEEPENING RELATIONSHIP
This simply means that we don’t stay at the level of Superficiality, knowing a few Personal things about People.
Some of us, it is only every Year that we come here that we meet one another. For the remaining part of the Year, we careless, we don’t know what is happening.
… I want that to change tonight.
Look around, form reasonable Friendships. Friendships that can make you go Higher in the things of God.
Some of us in the various Churches that we go to, we only see ourselves on Sundays. The day we don’t see somebody, you don’t even bother for that Person.
So, when am talking of “Deepening Relationship”; it means making efforts to know that Person.
And the only way we can know that Person is when you take that Person to God. Then God will reveal to you what you needed to know about that Person.
Infact, “Deepening Relationship” according to Galatians 6:2; seems to be referring to something different.
It says that we should bear each other burdens.
How many People are you helping to bear their burden?
Do you know whether they are even burdened at all? When there is music, all of us dance and joke. Do you know whether somebody is crying within?
If you want to have a Glorious Relationship; you must desire to have more “Intimate Relationship”.
And when we are using “Deepening Relationship’; it is a Process as it just doesn’t come overnight.
And this “Deepening Relationship” is not Static. You need to know that they take time – they don’t have to happen overnight.
But our aim is that more and more we will have an atmosphere that is coronal in Character.
Praise the Lord – Hallelujah.
Where we encourage one another, where we do away with Shallowness and Superficiality.
Don’t let us be like Cain when God said: Where is your brother?
He answered God and said that am I my brother’s Keeper?
That is how some of us are behaving nowadays.
Praise the Lord – Hallelujah.
3. SUPPORTIVE RELATIONSHIP
And this is where we are talking of Relationship that has to do with Love.
Our aim is that more and more, we lightened other People’s Burden by getting to know them.
Love means that you desire to be a Load Lifter, a Burden Bearer, a Helper and a Strengthener to one another.
You are not meant to bring other People down out of jealousy but rather you see somebody doing well, you encouraged them to do better until they achieved their best.
I hope that am getting across to somebody. Praise the Lord – Hallelujah.
Brethren, I want you to know that if you go into a Relationship because of what you can get out of it; that is very selfish.
But when you go into Relationship with one another; it is to Bless that Life.
According to Acts 20:35; it says: I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how He said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.
… That is a Glorious Relationship.
4. FAITH-BUILDING RELATIONSHIP
Which is the bottom-line of why God designed us for the Relationship.
He designed us so that we can help each other to live by Faith in the Future Grace.
Faith means being satisfied with all that God is for us in Jesus.
So, Christian Relationship has this as their Goal to help each other to stay satisfied with Jesus.
There are People right now in our Church that are going through crises of Faith.
If you don’t move close to them, how do you know they are going through crises of Faith – it is very, very important. The Book of Hebrews 3: 12-13
12. Take heed Brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the Living God.
13. But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
So, that means we need to challenge one another everyday. We need to aim the Mark, Higher and Higher everyday in order to encourage each and everyone of us.
And remembering that is one of our Vision Statement: To make sure that we make everyone to make Heaven.
And the only way we can make everybody to make Heaven is to form a Glorious Relationship where you check on each other.
Praise the Lord – Hallelujah.
So, take care of Brethren to make sure that before we leave the Camp this Weekend; look for some People that you would form friendship with.
And am not talking of friendship which you will be getting from other People but friendship where both of you can be beneficial to one another.
Praise the Lord – Hallelujah
But quickly I want us now to go into the Relationship between Male and Female which you called Dating nowadays.
Praise the Lord – Hallelujah.
Because its part of Relationship but there must be boundaries in this kind of Relationship.
In the Old Testament of course; we saw Isaac pursuing Rebecca as a response to a specific Prayer that has been Prayed.
And we saw Ruth later on laying herself at the feet of Boaz which is another Relationship that portrays the Church and Jesus Christ.
So how do we handle boundaries in Dating – you better listen and listen very well.
Now when we are talking of boundaries, there must be boundaries because if there are no boundaries; sometimes People may go out of the way and there must be a Motivation during Dating – What you are looking forward to.
And this will form a Foundation to all our Actions, all our Moral Effects so that we don’t compromise.
For example; it is Motivation to run a race when you know that there is a Finishing Line and while you are running in the first Place.
So what are the Boundaries?
The Boundary or Motivation is to Glorify God in your Relationship.
See what the Bible said in the Book of 2 Corinthians 3: 7-18.
Here, the Bible is talking about when Moses went to meet with the Lord on the Motivation. When he came back because of his Shinning eyes the People demanded that a veil must be put on.
But now with the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ; that veil has been removed.
And that is why the Bible said that whenever you comes to the Lord, the veil is taken away for the Lord is a Spirit. And whenever the Spirit of the Lord is there is Freedom.
So, all of us who has had that veil removed are to reflect the Glory of the Lord. And the Lord who is a Spirit will make us to be more and more like Him as we are changed into His Glorious Image – Amen.
So, when in our Dating; it is for us to be changed into the Image of our Lord Jesus Christ.
And this can only be done when that veil has been removed.
For us to know that you don’t belong to yourself that you have been bought with a high Price – 1 Corinthians 6:19
“What? Know ye not that your body is the Temple of the Holy Ghost which is on you, which ye have of God and ye are not your own?”
God gave you this Gift of Holiness through the costly shed Blood of Jesus Christ. And we should realised that we are now eternally brought to the Lord gives us a different Perspective on how we treat our bodies while on Earth.
So, the Earthly Boundaries that we need to have is:
1. We need to consider and honour one another especially for Young Males. You must honour that Lady knowing that she is also a Child of God.
The Bible says in the Book of Romans 12:10. It says: Love each other with Genuine Affection and take delight in honouring each other.
Supposing that lady is your own Blood Sister, you will not expect that one that if you love me, I want you to do this for me before marriage.
So, when you are Dating a young Lady, there must be honour.
And young Lady, you must know and desire the way you want to be treated – You are going out with a young man, you go and dress shabbily with half of your body out.
How do you expect him to honour you?
The Bible made us to understand that our Price is above Rubies. And Rubies is one of the expensive metals in the world. You want to buy Rubies, then you have to have the money.
And that is the way you should treat yourself as very expensive. And any young man that comes to you will learn to honour you.
Praise the Lord – Hallelujah.
2. According to the Book of Philippians 2: 3-4
3. Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.
4. Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.
That is very important.
When you are Dating one another; you must make sure that you lay down your own Agenda.
Whatsoever Agenda that you have must be laid down and it must be looked at in the light of our Lord Jesus Christ.
The Point is to Glorify God in our Dating Relationship.
The Point is to have Helping Boundaries which will free us.
When there are boundaries around, it free us to be Good Christians that others outside will look at us as a Model and they will want to come into our midst.
Apostle Paul in the Book of 1 Corinthians 10: 23-24
23. All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.
24. Let no man seek his own, but every man another’s wealth.
Don’t be concerned for your own Good but for the Good of others.
So, whenever you are going on a Dating; you look at what will keep you together. You don’t go into Isolation.
When you go into Isolation; it can bring sin into your Life.
Don’t start Relationship without Praying and don’t stop Praying while you are waiting.
Remember the Timing of Dating, the Time of Courtship is a Time of Waiting – You are Waiting to see how God will lead you.
So that is the Time to Intensify your Prayers. If you don’t know what to Pray about; I have about seven (7) of them maybe I will read them out to you if time permits.
Some important Goal in order for you to have a Glorious Relationship.
1. There must be a Goal in mind.
Remember that as a Born Again child of God; when two (2) of you want to start the Relationship the Goal is that at the end you are going to get Married – that is the Goal.
But supposing that you don’t get to end up marrying; you should still make it a Goal to Glorify God and edify one another so that in future even if you now marry somebody else. You can still see each other and greet one another in Love.
You will not be ashamed to see that other Person.
Why? – Because a Goal is already in mind.
2. We need to remember that you are brother and sister in Christ not sort of spouse.
Not that now that you are Dating, the sister is going to your house to cook for you, to mop the floor for you – That is not the Goal, that is not the Aim.
And sister, that is not the time the brothers must buy the Most expensive Gifts for you – That is not the Goal, that is not the Aim you need to know this.
You need to be Intentional in Progressing towards Marriage.
And that is why I have always say and don’t even believed in Dating anyway. But then if you are going to Date don’t let it be a long one so that sin does not come in.
And the Intention that you are moving towards Marriage not like the one that he is “Testing”. You are like butterfly perching everywhere – that should be discouraged.
And then before you even start there should be Non Negotiable Things.
What are the Non Negotiable:
- Is he or she a Born Again Christian?
- Is he or she having the Spirit of the Living God and Faith in Christ?
- Is he or she a member of any Church if not a member of my Church? Is he or she member of a Pentecostal Church where I can go and verify if he or she is a Genuine Worshipper of God?
- Is he or she applying the Word of God or is he or she just a Sunday-Sunday Worshipper?
Is he or she belonging to any Department in the Church?
5. Can the People or Elders in his or her Church be able to give Good Reports of him or her?
6. What is the view of your Parents and others about him or her; you need to have this.
And that is why in the Redeemed Christian Church of God; we always tell the brother that when you see a lovely sister; you first go and tell your Pastor who will be Praying for you.
It is that Pastor after Praying that will now call the sister.
And of course, the sister must have been Praying and Seeking God’s Face.
We need to go back to the Old Ways as this New Way is not benefiting us – where you can have a brother having six (6) or seven (7) sisters.
7. And then you need to know your Limitations.
Don’t say that you are going on a Dating where you will go all alone or you said because the brother is living very far that is why I slept over in his house.
8. You need to envisioned the Future.
What is the Future that you are envisioning when you are having this Relationship?
As I begin to round up: Tonight, guide your sister’s heart.
Yes, because you are supposed to be the Leader and the Leader you are going to become when you married you need to start showing it now – Praise the Lord.
Men are supposed to Protect women because the Bible said that they are the Weaker Vessels.
And for the ladies, I will charge you: Guide your heart.
If a man doesn’t meet certain qualifications, don’t even consider Dating him.
What do you mean?
When you watch a man who doesn’t have respect for his blood sister, mother or elders; then he cannot have respect for you.
You need to watch out: Does he disciple People? When have you seen him carry the Bible out to disciple People?
I want to let you know that I am from Ijebu (Ogun State, Western Part of Nigeria) and my husband is from Edo (Delta State, South South Part of Nigeria).
But what made up my mind finally for him then was that when he kneels to cry to God; I will see him weeping as he is Praying. Then I know that this man Prays a lot. I know that this man is a Broken Vessel. And if he is a Broken Vessel, he cannot harm me. I know that my coming to his Life will make a difference in my Life.
And that is how we have been. He has been my Coach. Then he will tell me Bible Passages to read and when we meet, he will ask me questions on all those things.
So, if you are having a Relationship with a young man that cannot show some of these Good examples in your Life; then what are you doing with him.
Anyone that will not treat you like a Queen when you are still outside; forget about it when you enter his house – He will not Change.
Of course, when you are starting this kind of Relationship, there are bound to be conflicts because we are not one hundred percent (100%) Perfect Human Beings.
But find a way of sitting down to vet to the bottom of the conflict and then come together before God and ask God to help you to iron out such conflicts.
So, much more than we have been talking about; I want to still emphasized it tonight that you need to run from Sexual Immorality – Very Important.
Why am I coming back to this: Many of us know where we have erred, many of us know that when it comes to this aspects of our lives, we have been going round like butterflies and it is affecting our Spiritual Lives.
As I am Preparing and Praying, God made me to know – You see that anytime you come together, you leave something from your Life into the Life of that Person. And if you don’t end up marrying that Person, it removes and share away the Glory of God from your life.
No wonder some of you are experiencing up and down in your Spiritual Life.
ALTAR CALL
As we are going to be rounding up; if you are here you know that you know that you are an empty shell because of the many People that you have slept with – am talking of men and women.
You are like an empty shell, you don’t have anything in you. There is no Glory in you again as the enemies has removed it.
How can you have His Power and His Glory – It is not possible.
What am I talking about?
One of the Relationship that God Valued Most and that is when God want to use your Marriage to Protect us.
Because anytime you come together; the Spirit of God is there and the enemies equally there.
And so many of us, some things has been stolen from our lives.
I want us to rise up on our feet tonight. I want to assure you that there is Hope for you.
I don’t know how your Life has been, I don’t know what you have been experiencing, I don’t know the Spiritual Forces that you have opened the door to and its not making you to rule and reign in Power and Glory.
I want us to take this song and if you know that you are out there and you need Prayer; I will encourage you to step out. Because under the Anointing tonight; yokes are going to be Broken in the Name of Jesus Christ – Amen. That Glory that has been lost shall be returned into your Life – Amen.
If you need Restoration, please come out quickly.
Choir please help me:
- My faith has found a resting place,
Not in device nor creed;
I trust the Ever-living One,
His wounds for me shall plead.
Chorus
I need no other argument,
I need no other plea;
It is enough that Jesus died,
And that He died for me.
2. Enough for me that Jesus saves,
This ends my fear and doubt;
A sinful soul I come to Him,
He’ll never cast me out.
3. My heart is leaning on the Word,
The written Word of God,
Salvation by my Savior’s name,
Salvation through His blood.
4. My great Physician heals the sick,
The lost He came to save;
For me His precious blood He shed,
For me His life He gave
Thank you so much for staying all through to read.

It is outrightly wrong and a sin for anyone that wants to swim in God’s Glory to consciously remove the original source of the work that does not emanate for him or her!
