THE WOMAN NO MAN WANTS TO LET GO

Rev.Michael Benson Ajayi
 Prov. 18:22 “Whosoever finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favour of the Lord”
         Marriage is God's plan for a godly family .  The Christian family is a microcosm of God's family with the husband representing the heavenly Father and the wife ,Christ :the children being the body of believers.  God places so much premium on the family because that's how nations are formed. Stability in a nation starts with stable families: the result of a godly man being married to a godly woman. Sad families produce bitter citizens and an unstable country therefore, nation building and stability begins at the family level.  
         A godly woman is gracious and honorable (Prov. 11:16)  honours elders ,this is usually the first thing you'll notice about a godly woman (Luke 1:41) she recognizes the blessing in greeting.
      She makes her husband proud ,. Proverbs 12:4 NLT says "A worthy wife is a crown for her husband, but a disgraceful woman is like cancer in his bones." she never diminishes his worth in the public domain and  commits herself to praying for his well-being and progress.
   She is full of wisdom, knowledge  and understanding (Prov. 19:14b) and depends on God for sustenance (Rom.1:17).  She is kind ,the scriptures says in Proverbs 31:26 NLT "When she speaks, her words are wise, and she gives instructions with kindness." she is courteous and does not use vulgar language while speaking.
    She is hard working and hates idleness Proverbs 31:19 NLT says "Her hands are busy spinning thread, her fingers twisting fiber."  She is also a philanthropist Proverbs 31:20 NLT says "She extends a helping hand to the poor and opens her arms to the needy" she is a shrewd businesswoman , not a wasteful spender who lives above her means  Proverbs 31:16 NLT says "She goes to inspect a field and buys it; with her earnings she plants a vineyard.". She is a light to the ungodly, through her services the ungodly are attracted to the kingdom of God.
         An ungodly wife is  loud-mouthed and stubborn, never at home (Prov. 7:11)She idle and has no time to study the scriptures, wandering from house to house,a busybody and a  tattler , (1Timothy 5:13. )She invests more on her physical appearance than on godly virtues.Beauty cannot save a marriage from failing but a godly character can (Prov. 11;22, Prov. 31:30) character is achieved by having godly mentors and fellowship with God's people; more time and resources should be spent  on developing a meek and quiet spirit than on fashion. Fashion is a creation from God designed to attract man to God and not the other way round (1Peter 3:3-5)
      Some of the godly wife's duties include being a ready and exciting and enriching companion to her husband Prov. 31;11, Mal 2:14b she does so lovingly without complaints while pleasing her  husband (Prov. 31:12 Titus. 2:4, 1 Cor.7:34b) and because of the loving relationship between them she has no problem submitting to his authority because failure to do so leads to hindrance to prayers being answered Col. 3:18. ; ICor.11:3, 1Cor.11:8,9, Eph 5:33b, .
       As you receive Jesus Christ as lord and saviour and read this now receive grace for a fruitful and loving family relationship in Jesus name.

BREAK EVIL FAMILY PATTERNS

Image
 By Rev.Michael Benson Ajayi  Titus 1:12 -14 "One of themselves,   even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians   are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies.  This  witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply,  that they may be sound in the faith;  Not giving  heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of  men, that turn from the truth."       The church in Crete was in disarray and the apostle assigned Titus to go and put things in order . On investigation it was discovered the church suffered from a vicious cycle of evil family  patterns. They were not enjoying the fruits of the salvation experience . An example of evil family patterns is that of King David who defiled Uriah's wife ,murdered him and his son Absalom murdered his brother Amnon (2Sam13) dethroned him and defiled his concubines openly (2Samuel16). His son Amnon defiled his sister Tamar (2Sam.13) and so on yet David was the anointed of the Lord.     Many christians suffer evil family patterns ( repeated d

CONSEQUENCES OF LACK OF FAITH

By Rev. Michael Benson Ajayi " Be careful then, dear brothers and sisters. Make sure that your own hearts are not evil and unbelieving, turning you away from the living God." Hebrews 3:12 NLTBible  ' Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here, and look at my hands. Put your hand into the wound in my side. Don’t be faithless any longer. Believe!”John 20:27 NLTBible     Faith is the guarantee of the manifestation an unseen reality . It is the reason behind the hope we have in God and the fulfilment of his promises. It is the substance ( title deed) of things hoped for ,the evidence of things not seen (Hebrew 11:1) .The Bible warns against not having faith in God. Lack of faith is equal to calling God a liar and untrustworthy. This type of reasoning turns us into enemy's of God.    The gospel is so much under attack by the activities of faithless religionists . They plan to replace the holy scripture with humanistic dogma. The danger in this is the relative approach t

COMMON CAUSES OF DISUNITY.

Image
 By Rev Michael Benson Ajayi "Even some men from your own group will rise up and distort the truth in order to draw a following."Acts 20:30 NLT   "An angry person starts fights; a hot-tempered person commits all kinds of sin." Proverbs 29:22 NLTBible        Disunity is defined as : disagreement and conflict within a group. It is the greatest hindrance to the promotion of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Disunity creates an avenue for Satan to promote sin.       The causes of disunity are not farfetched ,they include : Unhealthy Crave for power or self- promotion. Whenever there is an unhealthy pursuit of influence in a family or group it results in resistance. Self-promotion gives birth to unfair practices and injustices. In Numbers 12: 1-15  Moses' sister Miriam and Aaron rebelled against him desiring to rule by force and in Numbers 16 :1-35 Korah led an insurrection against Moses desiring to be part of leadership. In both cases ,God was not pleased with the rebels
