SIGNS THAT YOU ARE DECEIVING YOURSELF!

-

According to the bible we are exhorted and admonished not to deceive ourselves but there are signs and symptoms of deceiving oneself which is as follows.
1. When you preach to people not to do a particular thing but your life is contrary to what you have preached to them, knowing fully that whatever you are telling others to do without you doing it will only impress their head but not impact their hearts.
2. When you only read bible because you are invited to come and minister in a place. Dear acclaimed man of God you cannot go far in life and ministry if you read bible only to prepare for sermon but not personally sit down to study the bible to learn, equip and grow in your knowledge of God.
3. When you are full of religion activities but you are not spiritual. What a tragedy of life to be active in church and not alive in Christ. Your spirituality in God is far better than your religiosity of life.
4. When your pursuit is after temporal and material things and standing in the position of exploiting men at the expense of impacting lives. Your life is beautifully expressed in touching the life of people for God.
5. When you rate your aptitude than your attitude. Your attitude is everything about you and speaks volume of your life's belief and perspectives. You cannot get to your altitude in life if your attitude is not godly, you are a successful failure if you keep improving your aptitude and overlooking your bad character and weaknesses daily.

WHEN LOVE HURTS...

-
True love is not all about this "gooeey-gooeey" feelings, head in cloud 9, butterfly in stomach and staring into your beloved's eyes 24/7. Heavens knows I still have that "gooeey" feelings for my darling and honestly, his tall, slim frame never cease making my heart pant for him. I don't get bored being in his company. 11 years of knowing this cutie doesn't look like it, it's like...oh, it's like we just started! But love is also tough! There is something called tough love! That is what I want to talk about. The love that will last a life time will go through seasons and one of the seasons which most singles don't want to talk about, many married people avoid and most divorcees wished they had the wisdom to manage is the season of tough love! This is the season your partner stamps their feet and say, "NO honey, I'm not going to take this!" It's the season you go through your adjustment period; adapting to your spouse, cha...

Sexual Urges (yay or nay) 🤔

You know there's a 'sincere' pleasure that emanates from sex, especially when the act is performed with somebody that you love, and not someone you are paid to have it with. Sex is something that not only transcends in the physical realm, but also in the spiritual realm. It is an established fact that a lot of us do have sexual urges (S.U), and they are just fine the way they are, in fact it is a sign that you are normal! I had a counselling session with a young man, and he open ed up and confided in me about his really ‘intense’ sexual urges,  which later led him into (pornography, masturbation, etc.)  in a bid to satisfy those urges, which is wrong by  the way .... And as a result of that, he th ought he was abnormal, because the whole thing i.e 'the feelings' were so intense for him. I had to assure him that the fact that he experienced all this S.U, only affirmed the fact that he was indeed normal, because this are things that God has put in us, so that at t...

DIRTY SECRETS IN MARRIAGE...

I've heard stuffs like, "don't check your husband's phone if you don't want to develop hypertension."  What is in that phone that you cannot check? Excuse me brother, what secret conversations are you having that your wife must not see or hear about? Who are you having secret chats with as a wife? Why are you deleting your chats, what is in the chat you are deleting? Emotional affair is every where! The moment you start having secret admiration for someone who is not your spouse, you are lusting and you need to deal with it. You can't carry fire in your bossom and not be burnt! The only solution to dealing with the affair is to block that person from your life. To keep talking to them with the false hope you will deal with the lust is to live in a fool's paradise. You will one day have sex with that person, GUARATEED! Flee youthful lust is what the Bible says, it!s not just for singles, it's for the married as well. There is one sure fire pr...
