Seriously, I am not getting emotional. But you have taken to long to land or to make your point.

You keep asking questions like "who is a friend" that you should know. And the back and forth was beginning to make me dizzy.

There's nothing I said that I didn't understand. Point out one thing I said that I didn't understand.

What point are u referring to. An assertion is a point. Let me remind u again that I asked u questions. How can u then equate asking questions to making a point?

According to u:

"You keep asking questions like "who is a friend" that you should know."

Pls what is d topic of d thread? That in itself shows that u don't even understand urself

If u feeling dizzy, that's not my problem. Am sure u have a mattress. Pls make use of it.

Marrying your friend means getting married to a lady or a man you both started without marriage intention at the initial point, but along the line you found that person to possess the qualities you desire in your future partner. It is not advisable to marry a stranger because the understanding you both need to live together as husband and wife might not be available. Meanwhile, to a greater extent, you understand your friend. I got married to my wife whom I met as a friend during our 200 level back then in Uniabuja. To the glory of God, we are living so happily as best of friends because we so much understand each other.
You try. So people should start tracing their old school mates and childhood friends to marry. You really try, oga relationship counselor.

Please, help and explain further on how he show u, I’m seeking his face for a while now n I’m not seeing dream or speaking to me. Though he used to sometimes through dreams. And if u can help me with some scriptural passage to engage I will be very grateful

Brother the condition of your heart is important..
See Jere 29:13
Is God Almighty Your Choice or just a Choice..

Discuss with BABA just as you talk to your father.
Let HIM know that you Depend Absolutely on HIM. it is HIS Choice or nothing..

Live Right!
Pray the right prayers! And Believe what you pray!
John 14:13-14, Mark 9:23, Mark 11:24

Be sensitive to his leading..

He could talk to you audibly
He could reveal to you by dreams / Visions
He could give u signal through the Holy Spirit in you.

Keep your mind fertile for God.. in Righteousness and holy living..

Read your Bible daily: this is one of the seasons of revelation

Pray always and be sensitive, his voice can come anytime..

I have been privileged to Hear the Audible 3 times in my entire life.

Other times it comes through dreams/revelations

Other times through his spirit in me..

Being sensitive is key! The Holy Spirit is as his name is. He is Holy! He does Stand sin!

On a serious note, the only advice I will give to couples or intending couples is, LOVE SOMEONE YOU MARRY, DONT MARRY SOMEONE YOU LOVE.

Don't be confused about that statement. It means, even if it's an unavoidable situation that made u both become husband and wife just love yourselves cos that's the only way your marriage can be successful.

Saying u should not marry someone u love doesn't mean u should marry someone u hate..NO, but u will agree many people were lusting cos of maybe the current qualities their spouses had then, so what happens when those qualities are no longer available Hatred sets in, and the family is torn apart.... Love your wife, love your husband!


So you feel like dribbling us with words and ended up scoring an own goal. Chei.


What you are saying you should not marry who you love but marry anyone and love the person, abi.

Don't you know some people are incapable of being loved? The more you love, the more they hate.


The man that got parted from his dick listened to your logic.

Ur friend in marriage is someone U have real affection, someone U re fond Of or U like, someone U have strong bond, someone that support and feel deep connection.

Like I said, I told God in Prayers, that if I don't hear from Him, I would not get Married. And that was it. In fact marriage was not even on my mind..

Sometime in 2014, very early in the morning! I was still on bed and I heard Clearly, " You are Going to soooo"

The place I was told , I had nothing to do with the place.. there was no way I would go there ' nothing connected me there! But I know I heard Clearly! It was not a dream! Very Clear bold voice!

Now the problem I had was , how will get to this place?

Few months later, a friend called me one morning and asked me to come to his office, that he had something to show me!

In the course of checking out what he showed me, I got connected to a lady.

The Mystery there is that this lady is from the Country I was told..

It's a long story cos there were series of confirmations, series of battles but the will of God was finally done in 2017 on the exact day and date HE gave..

Send me a pm if u will, I will tell you ..

Okay that's interesting. You know sometimes we may feel we heard from God and then set out with such believe or in some Cases assumption and then meet with things that shouldn't be.

righteousness
the Bible says, "he who has found a wife has found a good thing and obtained favor from the Lord".. "found" not "revealed" open ur eyes b4 u pick, u will not see her in ur dreams believe me. Open ur eyes and pick and pray over the person u are choosing...

SUMMARY .........don't expect God to show u who to marry in ur dreams.....

Much respect for your comment. The key word "found" is just wonderful.

We always want to throw everything to God, without doing anything else.

I also believe that, look for someone who will compliment and complete you, then put it to God and let Him make a way.

Thanks for your wisdom.
