I write good stuffs and it is pertinent I mention the mods to consider it for front page..and btw I'm not a front page rookie.

IamAirforce1:
He that "Findeth" a wife findeth a good thing and obtains favor from God .

N0favors:
It's always good to seek God's guidance before proceeding to marriage. But then, I personally believe a man would know her prospective wife when he meets her. You don't need no angel to reveal it to you

PUSSYHOE:
I hate ladies that sleep with more than one man at a time.

Toks2008:


Now you are beginning to communicate.

Now the guidance is clear from the scriptures..."we should be yoked with believers" as I clearly pointed that out.

Now there is another form of guidance that does not necessarily mean GOD telling you "She is the one" you still have to choose...

I didn't quote you, did I? But I'll still dignify you with a response I'm that generous

Another ignorant write up from you

But often times we tend to fool ourselves going to a pastor or going to bother GOD to tell us if a seemingly desirous prospective partner comes our way and i tend to wonder.

Now, what is wrong if a man decided to ask God if a prospective woman is for him? How is that bothering God?

We all have our plans but always know that God's plan is the best for you. Yours may be good, but God's plan will always be better.

I never played down the issue of you choosing for yourself. Your article became disgusting the moment you advised that we don't need to hear from him, just because we feel or know we have met a desirous prospective woman.

That to me, is the trashiest thought one could ever imagine.

CivilzedTyger:
Hello sister. the lord says u are my wife

izzou:


For the first time, I am absolutely disappointed that you actually wrote something trashy like this



I haven't read a write up loaded with so much ignorance in a while

Happy Sunday though

N0favors:
Go and consult your lord again bro

TheUbermensch:



I don't think it's ignorance. The nigga has a point.

Some times these pastors just speak to us from the abundance of their hearts. No heavenly direction whatsoever.

Toks2008:
Many people have been decieved into terrible marriages or prevented from marrying a good spouse in the name of "My Pastor said" or "GOD said".

I believe there is so much hypocrisy surrounding this matter. Lets face it..how come people don't seek GOD's face or ask a pastor for confirmation if the prospective spouse is an extreme opposite of what they desire..?

How many educated ladies will bother to ask GOD or pastor to confirm if a known armed robber is the one should such woos for marriage?
How many Guys will go to GOD to confirm for them if a popular LovePeddler is the one? But often times we tend to fool ourselves going to a pastor or going to bother GOD to tell us if a seemingly desirous prospective partner comes our way and i tend to wonder.

In the entire scriptures, there were only two instances where GOD expressly gave a clear direction concerning choosing a spouse and in those two instances, it was a very difficult choice and that was when God commanded the prophet Hosea, “Go, take to yourself a wife of whoredom and have children of whoredom.Hosea 1:2. And the second instance was when GOD sked Joseph to marry Mary who was already pregnant.

GOD respects our freedom of choice and for the Christians, we are encouraged to be yoked with fellow Believers and as far as GOD is concerned, A man has the sole responsibility to find a wife and once he finds one and marries her, he obtains favour from GOD. Proverbs 18:22.

The summary of this piece is that we should stop deceiving ourselves by saying 'Prophet said, My pastor said, Alfa said...' because in the real sense, it is our mind telling us what we want to hear. You can rely on your intuition or peculiar signs that gives you confirmation but we should stop hiding behind those words 'GOD SAID'

As a man,it is your paramount duty to search so pray to GOD for guidance and as a lady, pray to GOD that the type of man you desire finds you.

Just as we can see from the scriptures,if GOD ever tells you to marry a certain person then it is most certain that the choice of spouse will be very difficult for you to accept and this is the way you will know that indeed, it is GOD's choice for you

I hope this makes sense.

Proverbs 3:5-6 New International Version (NIV)

5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;
6 in all your ways submit to him,
and he will make your paths straight.

You should take more time to study the Bible. Know more about the God you serve before creating threads just to make the front-page or get irrelevant likes

Tomorrow is Monday. Work calls. Read that verse up there. Read different translations and ask yourself.

Why did that part advise me not to lean on my own understanding?

Be wise bro. Have a great week ahead

izzou:


He actually wrote God, together with pastors and Alfas, until someone called his attention and he removed it

That to me, is ignorance

IamAirforce1:
He that "Findeth" a wife findeth a good thing and obtains favor from God .

Boyooosa:

Not fully.
Toks, I guess you are quickly running out of idea. You need a lot of more research, steadfastness and right frame of mind next time u r writing.
This is an incomplete piece! with all humility bro.

Toks2008:


I only removed it because on a second look I have that as a concluding tense not because of what you think.

Nevertheless I think you are corroborating my writeup but you just want to argue for the sake of it.

There is absolutely nothing wrong if any man decides to ask God to decide for him in any aspect of his life. Absolutely nothing wrong

I used to have this friend back then when I was in school(he had graduated though). He got a job that was going to pay him six figures back then. He turned it down, telling everyone that God told him not to take it. How God told him, nobody knew

Two years down the line, bros was still jobless. We all blamed him for refusing a juicy offer but oga still insisted that God told him not to take it.

The third year, he got another one that was almost double the salary. Not only that, after six months, oga was shipped to Germany for training and they retained him there till this day.

If he had actually relied on his feelings back then, well,
I can't say.....

God is still in the business of deciding for people no matter how good the situation looks, if only you let him

When you are too lazy to read the Bible you bought with your own money, you have to depend on your Pastor for directions.
