Who Find Good Wife or Husband obtain the Favour of God. Proverbs 18:22

     He who finds a wife finds a good thing, And obtains favor from the LORD

Proverbs 18:22


         To have a good wife or husband is what everyone is praying for, and to have it one need the favor of Lord.  If man is rich does not make him good husband and a poor man does not make to be bad husband.  Likewise beautiful lady is not the evidence of good wife and hugely lady does not make her bad wife.

  People says first impression last longer, in marriage a bad husband can impressed you to get what he want, I was told about a man discieved a woman to extend that he followed the woman to church pretend to be converted after their marriage he enforce the woman to change back to Muslim after two kids.

      Anybody that marry good husband/wife abtains the favour of the Lord.  That is the reason we don’t need to rush into it. Do not base your affection on physical or material things let base on genuine love, that doesn’t depends beautiful.

What you need to do when search for helpmate

1.    Prayer:   But thou shalt go unto my country, and to my kindred, and take a wife unto my son Isaac.  And I will make thee swear by the LORD, the God of heaven, and the God of the earth, that thou shalt not take a wife unto my son of the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I dwell… And he said O LORD God of my master Abraham, I pray thee, send me good speed this day, and shew kindness unto my master Abraham.   Behold, I stand here by the well of water; and the daughters of the men of the city come out to draw water: And let it come to pass, that the damsel to whom I shall say, Let down thy pitcher, I pray thee, that I may drink; and she shall say, Drink, and I will give thy camels drink also: let the same be she that thou hast appointed for thy servant Isaac; and thereby shall I know that thou hast shewed kindness unto my master. And it came to pass, before he had done speaking, that, behold, Rebekah came out, who was born to Bethuel, son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother, with her pitcher upon her shoulder.  And the damsel was very fair to look upon, a virgin, neither had any man known her: and she went down to the well, and filled her pitcher, and came up. And she said, Drink, my lord: and she hasted, and let down her pitcher upon her hand, and gave him drink.  And the servant ran to meet her, and said, Let me, I pray thee, drink a little water of thy pitcher. Genesis 24:3-24.  

2.    You must have choice.  In the bible passage the savant  have his choice of woman he want for Isaac “... Behold, I stand here by the well of water; and the daughters of the men of the city come out to draw water: And let it come to pass, that the damsel to whom I shall say, Let down thy pitcher, I pray thee, that I may drink; and she shall say, Drink, and I will give thy camels drink also: let the same be she that thou hast appointed for thy servant Isaac; and thereby shall I know that thou hast shewed kindness unto master ...” Genesis 24:13&14 Let woman I ask to give me water and she voluntarily  give water to me camel be the why of my master and it was done when u read that passage further Isaac love the woman the moment he sees her they both loved each other. God want you to have happy home we will not force what you don’t like on you.

3.    Have Time for courtship period.  That is you must have time to move with each other, take time to study whom you want to marry know him or her very well.  Don’t rush take it slowly if you know your spouse very well it helps marriage to last. And during this time if it is sombody you can’t cope with you can still go back. It is better to have broking relationship than have broking marriage.

What A Generation

PLEASE READ THIS ARTICLE TO THE END AND LISTEN TO THE ADVISE. 

What a Generation

Sodom and Gomorrah seems to be more decent than this generation...


Criminals are now celebrated as Yahoo boys... It is no longer prostitute but slay queen... It is no longer bleaching but glowing...


No longer Ritualist/blood money is now Yahoo plus... Drug dealers are now called hustlers... 


A harlot is now a runs girl... Church workers now comment on immorality post in the name of freaky-freaky...


It is no longer fornication but love making... Even rudeness is now savage... 


pride is now small girls with big God... 


Gambling has been upgraded to bet nija... Pornography is now recognize as BBNIJA... 


Premarital sex is now the main prove of love... Can you see how they have upgraded human killings to be politics? 


Most of these evil acts are done because of a misguided concept of what grace message is.


Virginity that was the most expensive asset is now cheaper than a plate of food.


I have seen ladies who denied guys access to their ATM pin, account balance, their birth certificate, but yet give them easy access to their private parts.


Among all these things which one are we suppose to protect from a second party? 


Haven't you seen where someone will abandon the good news of the Bible just to get news from yabaleft, operamini, Lynda ikeji's blog? 


People are ready to die for their political parties rather than the gospel...


Where the youth pay more respect to the voice of celebrities than the voice of God's ordained prophets...


They even monitor and follow up ballot boxes why the new converts in their churches are perishing because of lack of follow up...


This is the generation where ladies are now  scheduled for hibs surgery, boobs sugery.


Guys are now going for pennis enlargement... All these are just to satisfy their sexual urge and boost their fornication spirit...


No matter how you chose to live your life... always remember there is something called death, there is a place called hell, there is a place called judgement throne...😭


Let us pray; Lord, search me and help me to abide still no matter what!... God make me a slave to righteousness! 😭😭🙌🙌


DON'T LET SHARING THIS BE A BURDEN TO YOU,YOU NEVER CAN TELL WHO YOU ARE BLESSING AND SAVING BY SHARING

EYESIGHT FOR INSIGHT


You Need a Cup Bearer

Text: Genesis 41: 8-14

Ministration: A wise man said, " Your network is directly proportional to your net worth." Every thing in this life actually reproduces on the basis of relationship. Relationship is a currency or a stream of income.

Who likes you in this life matters because men are lifted through men. Many of us are talented but we lack a cup bearer to tell the king that there is a Joseph that can interpret dreams.
Joseph built a positive relationship with the cup bearer in the prison. For that he was remembered and recommended by the cup bearer and his life changed for the better.

Who you know matters a lot in this life. Avoid despising men in this life based on the standard you use to judge them.

Sometimes those who crown kings don't look like kings and may never become kings but they can help you wear the crown. They are 'the king makers'.

PRAYER: God help me not to despise men around me but to regard, respect and appreciate them, building up every positive relationship in your grace.

Your friend,
Kelvin Nwobodo
(God's Servant)
