Finding true love is a gift from God. Of course you have to be of good character to please the one you love. How can you be of good character-By doing the complete will of God-you work hard, have only clean habits, keep your body healthy and slim, don’t get angry easily and do everything in moderation eg talking.
The most important thing to want in a Christian partner is a kind heart that fears God. However, your suitor can pretend to be very kind in the relationship but when you marry, he could turn cruel and quarrelsome.
So, how do you find his true character before marriage? Well people say you can know a person true character from how he treats those below him. Is he harsh to the waiter? Does she treat her maid with respect?
Watch how he treats everyone, even his elders. And also, when dating, we might be blind to the fault of our suitor so it is good to find out the opinion of other people –about his character and whether he really loves us- as the bible says in a
multitude of counsellers there is safety. It is commonly said that a person who ask questions never misses his way.

End Jungle Justice
You catch a thief in the market, and then you wear him a tyre and then kill him. Do you know God is watching?
A person is deemed innocent until found guilty. And even if he was caught red handled, the punishment shouldn’t never be lynching on the spot. I don’t even approve of the death penalty.
How would you know if the person you caught stealing is really guilty? One time, I heard of a 7 year old child being beaten and burned alive for stealing garri. We can’t be acting like barbarians when we are Christians.
What are we going to change, Nigerians. The world is watching. What do you think they think of us when we kill thieves in the market place? That we are heartless and stupid.
We need to work on our reputation as a country. We need to love ourselves more. We need to be more diligent and more creative in our jobs. We also need to care for the needy in our midst and stop breaking all our laws.
Satan is obviously the one tempting us to lynch thieves in the market. Stop and consider how much God loves the person you are lynching.
God is everywhere. He is an invisible God. He is always near all of us.
Psalm 139:7-Whither shall I go from thy spirit?or whither shall I flee from thy presence?If I ascend up into heaven,thou art there:if I make my bed in hell,behold, thou art there.
Try to do things to please God. What does it profit you to get carried away by anger and kill a thief?
Satan tempts us to lynch a thief-Resist with -God can forgive him.

It looks bad when a person staggers about drunk. You look like someone without self-control. People don’t respect drunkards and they are not looked up to.
God word says that drunkards shall not inherit the Kingdom of heaven.
Also, do you know that drunk women can easily get raped?
I read of a man who would go and find drunk women (maybe near clubs) and rape them. Don’t let your grand down. There are wicked people around.
If you are drunk, you can become prey to evil men. It is like crime, you cannot stop armed robbery but everyone locks their doors to prevent it if you can. To avoid rape, you can do God will that we should not get drunk as well as other measures.
I myself don’t drink or smoke.
Satan can be resisted with the Word of God and prayer. The bible says-Sanctify them by the truth,thy word is truth.
God wants to clean us through his words.
Satan tempts us to get drunk-We resist with the Sword of the Spirit-A good reputation is better than riches.

Our God in heaven loves us very much and will give us eternal life. Romans 8:32-He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?
3 John 1:2- Beloved,I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health,even as thy soul prospereth


God will for us to prosper and be in good health. But it is written on every pack of cigarettes that smokers are liable to die young? This is because smoking is dangerous to our health.
One good way to avoid being addicted to the nicotine in smoking is to not even try a cigarette at all. If you try cigarettes, you can become a slave to smoking.
Satan is the one tempting you to smoke as he tempts everyone even Adam and Eve.
Satan makes you feel like trying smoking-You resist with- God wants me to be in good health.
Second hand smoke can also hurt other people lungs. Smokers pollute the air around them causing harm to not only their lungs but the lungs of others around them. A server who works in a restaurant when the patrons are often smoking can die from the smoking she inhaled from others though she never smoked.
We are to take good care of the body that God has given us. When we die, all of us will give account of our life to him. Do you want to tell God that not only did you hasten your death by smoking but you also endangered other people's life by smoking?
Satan, of course, is behind smoking. He must be resisted with the Word of God and prayer. The bible says- By strength shall no man prevail.
Satan tempts us with smoking- We resist with-Our bodies are the temple of the Holy Ghost

Someone said -Showing up is half the job. Try to show up at your place of work whether it is at the office, in front of your computer or at the shopping mall to buy stuff for your kids.
You can do it. When you show up, you would most likely find yourself working. Just try it.
But if you just lie on your couch in front of the TV, nothing would happen.
There is always something gained in any hard work but just talking about working leads to lack of money. Proverbs 14:23-In all labour there is profit: but the talk of the lips tendeth only to penury
This means the work we do has reward whether it is washing clothes or driving our kids to school. You may not have a good job, but you can start from small-like just being a waitress- and God will bless the work of your hands. Do not despite the days of small beginnings.
Just do your best and leave the rest for God. Work slow but steady because slow and steady wins the race. Use your mind because the Bible says-Whatever you find to do with your hands, do it with your might.
Satan is always tempting us to sin against God. He is behind all our troubles.However, Jesus knows all about our troubles.
Satan tempts us not to work hard-Resist with-He who shall not work shall not eat.
Satan tempts us to waste time in front of the television-Resist with-Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:Which having no guide,overseer,or ruler,Provideth her meat in the summer,and gathereth her food in the harvest.How long wilt thou sleep,O sluggard? When wilt thou arise out of thy sleep? Yet a little sleep,a little slumber,a little folding of the hands to sleep So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth,and thy want as an armed man. Proverbs 6

Time waits for no one. Tell yourself each day-Tick Tick Tick Tick says the clock what you need to do, you better do it fast. This will help your mind to agree to work.

There are people who talk, talk and talk all the time. Behind your back people will complain you talk too much and then you will have the reputation of being a talkative. People look down on talkatives and the love of your life may not want to date someone people look down upon so you lose him.
If you can’t control your tongue, you would lose respect in the sight of others. Don’t you want to be respected?
Apart from talking too much, there are those who insult others. Let’s be like Jesus. Even when he was beaten and crucified, he opened not his mouth.
Satan tempts you to talk all the time-Resist with-If I can tame my tongue, I can tame my whole body
James 3:2 -For in many things we offend all.If any man offend not in word,the same is a perfect man,and able also to bridle the whole body.
Satan tempts you to curse another person-Resist with-God bless them.

Humans have intelligence, you know. Don’t think that you can win someone respect by shouting and beating them. Respect is earned.
We can earn someone’s respect by being of good character. A person of good character does God’s will like Jesus did-works hard, kept himself clean, eats moderately so he is not fat, and keeps his temper under control.
You can’t just get angry over every little thing. You can’t threaten or force people to respect you. There is this girl I know who is highly respected. A friend went to her room to test her but no matter how she was provoked, she didn’t lose her temper. She was much admired.
People are watching. Proverbs 22:1-Choose a good reputation over great riches; being held in high esteem is better than silver and gold. People will admire you if you are someone who controls their temper. It is an excellent trait.If you get angry with someone,it is better to walk away to cool your temper and pray
But if you are someone who gets
provoked just because a conductor won’t give you your correct change?. You may not know it but rumors about you may spread and you would lose esteem in the eyes of people. Just image if the man of your dreams sees you fighting? He may lose interest in you that moment.
Do you want to be held in high esteem by others? Then resist all Satan temptations with the Word of God just like Jesus resisted Satan. Matthew 4:4- But he answered and said, it is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
Satan tempts you to be angry -Resist him with- It is written in the Bible-Be Slow to anger.
.Ecclesiastes 7:9-Do not let yourself be quickly provoked, for anger resides in the lap of fools.
Resist the devil and he will flee from you.
If Satan tempts someone to provoke you to fight-You resist him with-Even in your anger, do not sin.
Ephesians 4:26-Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: Fight against the demons

Everyone likes to eat. Bread, rice, chocolates. They are all gifts from God.
But some people tend to over-eat. They eat one helping of food, but are tempted by Satan to eat yet another helping. Then another helping. You need to know when to stop.
You are now over-weight and your body feels really uncomfortable. Is this really how we are going to live our life?
Philippians 4-Let your moderation be known unto all men.
Eating, watching television and sleeping must all be done in moderation
One trick of Satan may be to get you to procrastinate your healthy diet. He can tell you (he might come to tell you every day)-Just take more food today, tomorrow you will start your diet. Resist him with-Procrastination is the killer of dreams.
Do you know why? Because your dream of becoming thin will die eventually if you procrastinate.
Someone offers you too much food, just nod your head no. Procrastinate eating until meal-time.
Also, being fat can also lead to disrespect. People would look at you as a person without self-control because you are fat. When people see a fat person holding a large bottle of coke and packets of chips, they think they are undisciplined.
Little drops of water make a mighty ocean. A little rice, a little meat-pie, a little wine each day all adds up to us being fat. Avoid liquid drinks like ribena and fried foods or pastries like donuts, meat-pies as they are especially fattening. Eat only small quantities of meat and keep your portions of food small. You can eat something fattening once a week to make the wait easier-as a treat.
Tell yourself before you eat-Little drops of water make a mighty ocean. Do this over and over to program your mind not to eat too much. Words have power.
Also, the guy you like may not be attracted to you if you are fat. And even your husband can lose interest in you if you are over- weight.
Jesus resisted temptation from Satan with the Word of God. Psalm 119:11-Thy Word had I hid in my heart that I might not sin against you.
Satan is the one tempting us to eat too much. We can resist him with the Word of God and prayer. He will flee if you resist. The bible says-Resist the devil and he will flee from you.
Satan tempts us to eat too much- We say-Everything in moderation as often as he tempts us. Pray anytime you feel tempted to eat too much that God will grant you the grace to eat moderately.

Being lean and healthy will help people to respect you.

Sometimes when people are alone, I read that they may sometimes indulge in bad habits like picking their nose. If someone eg your husband sees you continually picking your nose in secret they could lose all respect for you.
What are bad habits?
A person may pick their nose very often. The people near you can become disgusted.
Another person may scratch their body very often and yet another person can pick their butt.
Be careful. People may be gossiping of your habit and they won’t tell you. Do you know that bad habits can make people not to hold you in high regard?
You may have a bad habit and keep trying to stop for years but you fail over and over again. Don’t give up. God word says-I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
Bad habits are disgusting to those around us. It can even cause our friends, family and husband to disrespect us. And how can your husband remain in love with you if he cannot respect you?
No one who continues to do anything shameful or disgusting will enter heaven.
There can be only one person behind any bad habit-Satan. The bible says-Resist the devil and he will flee from you.
Jesus resisted temptations from Satan with the word of God. The bible says in Ephesians 6:17-And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
The Sword of the Spirit which is the word of God is part of our battle armor.
We can resist Satan with the Word of God and prayer.
Satan tempts us to dirty our fingers and smell them- We say –Cleanliness is next to Godliness as soon as we are tempted and we pray against it as well.
Satan tempts us to touch inside our navel causing a smell-We resist –No one is to be mastered by anything and pray constantly as well.
Satan tempts us to always touching or cleaning your nails-We resist by washing our hands whenever they are dirty so we don’t over focus on them.
Use the practical advice of washing your hands regularly and keeping your body clean to resist bad habits. Tell yourself “Fighting” as encouragement as you fight against the unseen demons.
Let pray an agreement prayer for God to help us break any bad habits.
In Jesus name-
Heavenly Father, thank you for the grace you have given us. Please we ask and agree that you would help us break all our bad habits. Amen.

God love

I heard people say on TV ‘God loves you very much’
The bible says faith come by hearing and hearing by the word of God
You have to claim the word of God with faith. Hebrews 4:12 -For the word of God is quick,and powerful,and sharper than any twoedged sword,piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit,and of the joints and marrow,and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
You can be sitting in your room and thinking of your problems and gloomy thoughts would come. God doesn’t love me, Satan puts in your thoughts.
It is a temptation from the devil. Jesus Christ resisted temptation in the garden by speaking the word of God. The bible says -Resist the devil and he would flee from you. The sword of the spirit in our battle armour is the word of God.
Tell yourself- God loves humanity so much that he gave his only begotten son to die for us

Say it with faith. You have to believe it for it to work. Then the temptation would flee.

How to make Heaven
I watched a video of a vision where Jesus said to pray for salvation. Christians were asking for other things they wanted maybe a car, house but the most important thing is salvation.
Matthew 6:33 -But seek ye first the Kingdom of God,and his righteousness;and all these things shall be added unto you.
Even after praying, I worried a lot about whether I would make heaven. God word says Philippians 4:6-Be careful for nothing;but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
God can help you if you are also worried. Not by might,nor by power,but by my spirit,saith the Lord of hosts


The bible says-by strength shall no man prevail
This means we can’t make heaven by ourselves but need the help of God.
Jesus Christ said it is not all who call me Lord Lord that shall enter into the Kingdom of heaven but those who do the will of my father in heaven.
This means not all Christians who call Jesus Lord will make it but only those who do the will of God.
Ask and you will receive God says in his Word. It means you can ask for God grace to do the will of the father in heaven. Grace according to the dictionary,is the unmerited favor of God towards mankind . Philippians 2:13-For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure. This means it is God who helps us do his will.

And do you know what? God word says- We believers can pray for anything we want as long as it is in accordance to his will. We can ask for provision, true love, success in our work, and the most important the grace to make heaven.

Persistence leads to success. It is a wise saying and all wisdom comes from God. Persistence means to keep trying. Don’t give up.
It is said that if you take an axe to a tree and hit it 5 times a day, one day it would fall. Persistence pays.
However if one way isn’t working out, try another. Don’t foolishly keep trying the same way over and over again.
There are lots of things we can persist on like learning to play the piano or winning the heart of the one you like.
Do you feel like giving up? Tell yourself “Fighting”. You can do it.
Satan of course would try to make you give up on your goal (he is the one behind it) –Resist him with-I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

Always try. It is better to try and fail than not to try at all. I once read that not all writers who sit and write are writing good fiction. They could be writing rubbish. But a friend told me that when someone cooks soup you should first say well-done, because of the effort they put in. So,we should congratulate everyone that works including those writers for their hard work and advice them to learn from the experts in their field eg tips like Showing not telling for writers to make their work better.
Just keep working, no matter how bad it seems because the Bible says-In all labour there is profit.

Faith
God helped me to ask for the faith of a mustard seed. Jesus said that if you have faith as a mustard seed you can move mountains. You can ask for it yourself, too.
Without faith it is impossible to please God as he that comes to him must believe that he is and that he is a rewarder of those who diligently seek him.
The bible says that if you ask God something in accordance to his will, he will grant it. All good things come from God
Psalm 37:4-Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.
Let’s ask God for the desire of our heart-
In Jesus name-Heavenly father, thank you. Please grant us the desires of our heart in Jesus name Amen.
Satan will try constantly to plant doubt and fear into your mind so you won’t believe and receive.
Psalm 119:11-Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.
Resist Satan whenever he brings doubt and fear with the word of God –By Praying that God should help your unbelief.
God word and prayer to God help us not to sin against God.
Do you know the common saying-In a multitude of witness there is wisdom
This helps me listen to advice from good sources and repeat to popular sayings like Patience is a virtue.
Satan tempts us to not wait for God- Resist with Hebrews 6:12 That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.
God is everywhere Acts 17:27- God did this so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us

In a multitude of counsellors there is safety

Dreams can come true. I heard a saying if dream were horses even beggars would fly. This is obviously from Satan. But the true saying is if you can dream it, you can achieve it.

It is said that – Watch your Thoughts, they become Words, Watch your Words, they become Actions, Watch your Actions, they become Character, watch your Character they become Destiny

Everyone has dreams. I myself had a
dream to write novels but I procrastinated a lot. Because of this, I failed and became depressed.
But God helped me. Proverbs 11:14- Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellers there is safety

So, I now listen to common sayings. Wisdom comes from God.
The mind is a battlefield as bad thoughts are coming from Satan.We are fighting against demons.
Satan (a demon you can’t see) tempts you to delay working-Resist with-Time waits for no one.
Satan tempts you to rush-Resist with-Slow and steady wins the race
Satan tempts you to leave work early-Resist with Patience is a virtue.
Satan tempts you to waste time-Resist with-Tick Tick Tick Tick says the clock, what you want to do better do it quick.
Do it quick because the graveyard is full of people who never accomplished their dreams because they procrastinated.
Satan tempts you to go to Facebook first thing in the morning-You resist with-Do your most important tasks first in a day
You tell your girlfriend you love her but you don’t do anything for her-You resist with-Actions speak louder than words.
Someone can even know you love them by your actions alone without you telling them.
Satan tempts you to neg a girl-You resist with-Love is kind
Satan tempts you to delay your work till the next day(Satan can come every day to do this)- Resist with-Don’t leave till tomorrow what you can do today
Satan tempts you to give up on your dreams-Resist with-If you can dream it, you can achieve it.
Satan tempts you to be afraid of a big project-Resist with- Little drops of water make a mighty ocean
You can always do a little work (a little drop) each day to complete a long project. How do you eat an apple. By taking a bite at a time. Start early
Satan tempts you not to start your important project at all-Resist him with-A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
Start the project and then continue working on it because a journey of a thousand miles lessens with another step.
Satan tempts you to be loose and not to wait for true love-You resist with-Good things come to those who wait.
Satan tempts you not to love others-You resist with the common saying-Treat others as you want to be treated.
Satan tempts you not to believe things commonly said- You resist with-The truth speaks for itself.
Satan tempts you to procrastinate obeying all God commandments- You resist with- Procrastination is the killer of dreams.
Some people may procrastinate repenting of all their sins until they are dying but if you procrastinate, you might miss heaven
The bible says-Resist the devil and he will flee from you

Temptations
You could be sitting in a room thinking negative thoughts. There are spiritual forces at war that try to influence our minds with all sorts of evil thoughts. We are at war.
The bible says Ephesians 6:12-For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
You could be in your room and Satan will send you a dart of depression. The Word of God tells us to give thanks no matter what.
Start giving thanks and the devil will flee.
You could be facing hard times and thinking of committing suicide-You may resist Satan (the unseen demon tempting you) with going out instead and helping others.
If you don’t resist and instead commit suicide, then you are a murderer because your body, soul and spirit is not yours but God. So if you kill yourself, you have destroyed something that belongs to God. God created everyone.
Murderers shall not inherit the Kingdom of heaven but you can repent from even thinking about suicide and be saved.
So help others by doing good deeds like spreading the gospel on the internet or elsewhere. When you help others, you get happier and your mood will lift. This is something commonly said and every good thing comes from God including wisdom
I know that if you focus on helping others, God will help you because his Word says Blessed are the merciful for they shall obtain mercy
Satan can also make you worry as the world is full of trouble- Resist him with prayer and thanksgiving as the Philippians 4:6 says-Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
Supplication is the action of asking or begging for something earnestly or humbly.
Satan can also tempt you to over-eat. Be careful as being fat will make you feel uncomfortable and unattractive.
Satan tempts you to eat very large portions of food(he can come to do this every day till you die)-Resist him with-The bible says-Everything in moderation
Always be sober, be vigilant for Satan, the worst enemy humanity can have, is moving around like those roaring lions in National Geographic wild, looking for souls to take to hell.
But don’t worry, for the Lion of the tribe of Judah will save us

DEMONS
Demons try to plant evil thoughts in our mind constantly. They are tempting everyone. 1 Peter 5:8 says Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
You can be attacked by more than one temptation at once. Satan can tempt you with depression then since you are depressed he can then tempt you to eat too much.
Another example is that he can tempt you to be slothful and then since you are idle, he will then tempt you watch immoral videos all day
Resist Satan temptation to be idle with-an idle mind is the devil workshop
He may tempt you with lack of confidence that you won’t do well in your work and then when you are failing add the temptation to give up as well.
Resist Satan Temptation to give up with-Winners never quit
Resist Satan many temptations with- No weapon fashioned against me shall prosper.

Faith
God helped me to ask for the faith of a mustard seed. Jesus said that if you have faith as a mustard seed you can move mountains. You can ask for it yourself, too.
Without faith it is impossible to please God as he that comes to him must believe that he is and that he is a rewarder of those who diligently seek him.

In Jesus name-Heavenly father, thank you. Please grant us the desires of our heart in Jesus name Amen.
Satan will try constantly to plant doubt and fear into your mind so you won’t believe and receive.

It is said that if you take an axe to a tree and hit it 5 times a day, one day it would fall. Persistence pays.
However if one way isn’t working out, try another. Don’t foolishly keep trying the same way over and over again.
There are lots of things we can persist on like learning to play the piano or winning the heart of the one you like.
Do you feel like giving up? Tell yourself “Fighting”. You can do it.
Satan of course would try to make you give up on your goal (he is the one behind it) –Resist him with-I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

Always try. It is better to try and fail than not to try at all. I once read that not all writers who sit and write are writing good fiction. They could be writing rubbish. But a friend told me that when someone cooks soup you should first say well-done, because of the effort they put in. So,we should congratulate everyone that works including those writers for their hard work and advice them to learn from the experts in their field eg tips like Showing not telling for writers to make their work better.
Just keep working, no matter how bad it seems because the Bible says-In all labour there is profit.

God helped me to ask for the faith of a mustard seed. Jesus said that if you have faith as a mustard seed you can move mountains. You can ask for it yourself, too.
Without faith it is impossible to please God as he that comes to him must believe that he is and that he is a rewarder of those who diligently seek him.
The bible says that if you ask God something in accordance to his will, he will grant it. All good things come from God
Psalm 37:4-Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.
Let’s ask God for the desire of our heart-
In Jesus name-Heavenly father, thank you. Please grant us the desires of our heart in Jesus name Amen.
Satan will try constantly to plant doubt and fear into your mind so you won’t believe and receive.
Psalm 119:11-Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.
Resist Satan whenever he brings doubt and fear with the word of God –By Praying that God should help your unbelief.
God word and prayer to God help us not to sin against God.
Do you know the common saying-In a multitude of witness there is wisdom
This helps me listen to advice from good sources and repeat to popular sayings like Patience is a virtue.
Satan tempts us to not wait for God- Resist with Hebrews 6:12 That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.
God is everywhere Acts 17:27- God did this so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us

How to make Heaven
I watched a video of a vision where Jesus said to pray for salvation. Christians were asking for other things they wanted maybe a car, house but the most important thing is salvation.
Matthew 6:33 -But seek ye first the Kingdom of God,and his righteousness;and all these things shall be added unto you.
Even after praying, I worried a lot about whether I would make heaven. God word says Philippians 4:6-Be careful for nothing;but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
God can help you if you are also worried. Not by might,nor by power,but by my spirit,saith the Lord of hosts


The bible says-by strength shall no man prevail
This means we can’t make heaven by ourselves but need the help of God.
Jesus Christ said it is not all who call me Lord Lord that shall enter into the Kingdom of heaven but those who do the will of my father in heaven.
This means not all Christians who call Jesus Lord will make it but only those who do the will of God.
Ask and you will receive God says in his Word. It means you can ask for God grace to do the will of the father in heaven. Grace according to the dictionary,is the unmerited favor of God towards mankind . Philippians 2:13-For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure. This means it is God who helps us do his will.

And do you know what? God word says- We believers can pray for anything we want as long as it is in accordance to his will. We can ask for provision, true love, success in our work, and the most important the grace to make heaven.

I heard people say on TV ‘God loves you very much’’
The bible says faith come by hearing and hearing by the word of God
You have to claim the word of God with faith. Hebrews 4:12 -For the word of God is quick,and powerful,and sharper than any twoedged sword,piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit,and of the joints and marrow,and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
You can be sitting in your room and thinking of your problems and gloomy thoughts would come. God doesn’t love me, Satan puts in your thoughts.
It is a temptation from the devil. Jesus Christ resisted temptation in the garden by speaking the word of God. The bible says -Resist the devil and he would flee from you. The sword of the spirit in our battle armour is the word of God.
Tell yourself- God loves humanity so much that he gave his only begotten son to die for us.

Say it with faith. You have to believe it for it to work. Then the temptation would flee.

HOW TO GET AND KEEP TRUE LOVE
Love gives. God gave his only son to die for us. If someone really loves you, he would give to you. You can ask God to send you the love of your life. Believe and you will receive.
1The person you marry must be a Christian who does God will.
The person must not only be a Christian but he should be a doer of the word (e.g. hardworking, humble and kind).
2 YOURSELF
Before you find true love, work on yourself. You want to be someone you yourself would choose to marry. Are you a doer of the word? Be of good character. Put God first and be a devout Christian.
These are tips to help you win the love and respect of the one you love.You should know that respect is earned so you must be of good character to be respected.
A Be chase-
It is important to girls should keep their bodies pure because you could lose the respect of the man of your dreams if you continue to be promiscuous. And if a guy cannot respect you, he might love you platonically but won’t be in love with you. You can repent if you have been promiscuous and God can help him respect you.
B Keep your body healthy-You want to look nice for the one you love. Eat in moderation and exercise regularly to keep your body attractive. Being fat can lead the one you like to disrespect you.
Care for your skin, teeth, hair and dress decently. Indecent dressing can lead the one you like to disrespect you. But don’t over focus on your appearance.
C Be clean- Keep your entire body and home clean and break all dirty habits. Dirty habits can make the one you love and others disrespect you. You can pray any time you are tempted to break any dirty habit as dirty habits is a temptation from Satan. Use the Sword of the Spirit which is the Word of God against him.
D Work hard-at your job, housework and God’s work. This will make the one you like respect you.
E Also, be well-behaved. Don’t talk too much as being a talkative can lead the one you like to disrespect you.
F. Honesty is the best policy in a relationship. Telling lies can lead to distrust.
G. Let me add this tip. When a guy tells you to do something wrong like have sex or get drunk and you tell him no and reject him of course, he would even respect you more for it. On the other hand giving in would make him disrespect you. This is because people respect those who stick to their values. Sticking to your values shows you have integrity.
He would lose respect for you if you compromise your values for him or anyone else.
Respect is necessary for someone to fall in love with you and you must continue to do all this if you want him to continue to respect you (meaning he can remain in love with you)
Try to read the bible and do the will of God in every area of your life. If you face any difficulty, pray.
Lastly, don’t make the guy you like the only focus of your life or he would probably run. Put God first and work on your own dreams, hobbies and spend time with friends.
3 Friendship-
Love is friendship. It is best to start a relationship as friends to get to know the person first. Build the friendship slow and steady. Don’t rush
These are ways to give your love.
A Words of appreciation
Always speak kindly to him. If you get angry, you can walk away or pray. Don’t ever say anything mean or harsh. People can remember hurtful words long after and it can ruin a relationship. But don’t be insincere in your compliments because he might notice and it is wrong.
B Attention
You should spend time with him. Pay regular attention to him. Don’t be obsessed with your phone. Listen to him when he talks.
C Gifts
Lots of people like gifts. But you can’t buy love so you don’t need to buy expensive gifts to win his love. He either likes you or he doesn’t.
You can buy him something small like couples tea mugs and it would touch his heart. Or as a sign of love, you can buy him something he really really wants, like a phone or something he really needs (e.g. a Christian book)
D Acts of service
Things like taking a lunch box to his office can win his heart. People in Nigeria say the way to a man heart is through his stomach. Other act of service may be helping him with his work etc

E Physical touch-Touch him like your own brother until married. You can hug and peck your brother, hold hands etc. Sleeping with any man (including the person you like) outside of marriage can lead the one you like to disrespect you.
E A friend in need is a friend indeed.
This means that when the guy you like is in need, you should be there for him in any way you can. This is true love.
If you underwater a flower (the relationship) it dies and if you over water the flower, it dies too. A relationship is like a flower. If you are uncaring, it can die and if you are obsessive it can die too. So, just be a very caring friend.
F Kindness- It is said the way to known a person character is to watch how he treats those beneath him. He could only be pretending to love you. You will be under the person when you marry. If he treats them badly, he could also treat you badly.
You should also listen to what people say about him because in a multitude of counsellors there is safety.
4 Respect

The bible says a wife must respect her husband so you must marry someone you respect. Watch a person character. He has to be a doer of the word. Does he behave like a born again Christian. Avoid sluggard, drunkards and willful sinners
What is respect? It is to hold someone in high regard. It is putting someone on a pedestal.
His character counts. You have to marry someone with a good character and he has to treat you like a queen. He has to respect you too.
You don’t have to get angry if he make mistakes a lot but if he shows a real sign of disrespect like pushing you away and rejecting you, you should leave or else he won't respect you. Remember the famous saying-if you love someone, let him go, if he doesn't come back, he was never yours.



5 Passion

I read that most people want to marry someone they find attractive so it is important. He must not be conventionally handsome but you should find him attractive.
Also remember that even if you follow this advice, some people are not just that into you. Not everyone is going to fall for you.
Do all this steps to win his heart and continue to do them to sustain his love even after marriage.

RELYING. ON THE WORD OF GOD TO RESIST TEMPTATIONS JUST LIKE JESUS DI

You need faith in God word to resist temptation. If you don’t have faith, you can ask and receive faith cause faith come from God
Psalm 119:11-Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.
We need to hid the word of God in our heart so we might not sin
John 17:17-Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth
The word of God can sanctify us.
1 Samuel 2:9-He will keep the feet of his saints, and the wicked shall be silent in darkness; for by strength shall no man prevail.
We need God help to succeed in our race to heaven
Matthew 4:3-4 -And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of GOD.
We need to live by not just bread, but by the word of God.
We can resist the devil with the word of God as Lord Jesus did.
Romans 8:29- For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.
James 4: 7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you
Matthew 4- 5-7
Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple. And saith unto him, if thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written,He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up,lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone. Jesus said unto him,It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy GOD
So be careful not to let the devil trick you like he tried to deceive Jesus using the word of God.
Note that he may try to confuse you.2 Corinthians 2:11-Lest Satan should get an advantage of us:for we are not ignorant of his devices.
Proverbs 4:7- Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.
Hebrews 4:12- For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.13 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight:but all things are unclad and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.
Ephesians 6:17: And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God
SO, WE RELY ON GOD WORD TO RESIST TEMPTATION.
Even Paul also relied on the Word of God in the bible.
Acts 23: 5 Then said Paul, I wist not, brethren, that he was the high priest: for it is written, Thou shalt not speak evil of the ruler of thy people.
And Paul said in 1 Corinthians 11-1-Be ye followers of me,even as I also am of Christ.

If you are tempted by pride you may resist with- James 4:6 But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.
If you are tempted by anger you may resist with- James 1:19 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath: 20 For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.
If you are tempted not to forgive you can say – Matthew 6:15- But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your father forgive your trespasses.
Also you can recall the parable of the unforgiving servant-

If you are tempted by fear you may resist with - 2 Timothy 1:7- For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind
If you are tempted with envy or stife say- James 3:16- For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.
And if you are tempter by evil say- Luke 10- Matthew 22- 37Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. 38This is the first and great commandment. 39And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
And you can also bind any evil spirit especially if more than one evil spirit is coming after you and loose anything you want-Matthew 18:18-Verily I say unto you,Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven:and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
If you are under attack from the enemy you can say- Luke 10:19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
If Satan tries to make you doubt Christianity say- JOHN 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
If you are tempted not to pray tell yourself- 1 Thessalonians 5:17- Pray without ceasing.
And if you are tempted with worry-it is written- Philippians 4:6-Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
I believe you can pray when you are tempted by any temptation at all eg anger or bitterness or fear and pray when you face any danger. It helps if you pray good prayers for other people when you feel anything bad like hatred or bitterness towards them or they have any need. Matthew 5:44-But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you,do good to them that hate you,and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
If you are tempted in any way, you can praise God.PSALM 22:3- But thou are holy,O thou that inhabitest the praises of Isreal. 2 PETER 2:9-The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptation,and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished.
I even watched on TV a boy who was kidnapped and he sang a Christian song and he was let go by the kidnapper . Remember Paul and Silas.
And if you are tempted not to work say-it is written-2 Thessalonians 3:10-For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.

If you are tempted to eat excess food or any other thing in excess-Philippians 4:5-Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand
If you are tempted to sin say - Hebrews 10-26 For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,
If you are tempted by things of the world,like to take a bribe or cheat in an exam say- Mark 8:36- For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?
If you are tempted to serve money say- Matthew 6:24- No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
Hebrews 13:8- Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever.
So if you need help just like in the past remember he said- Luke 18:42 - And Jesus said unto him, Receive thy sight: thy faith hath saved thee.
And if you are troubled by evil thoughts-Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.
If you are tempted not to listen to God word say- Romans 10:17- So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
Because- Hebrews 11:6- But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
If you are tempted by lust - Matthew 5:28- But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.
If you are tempted by sexual immorality say- 1 Corinthians 6:18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.
If you are lacking confidence- Philippians 4:13- I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
To do God will- James 1:22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
47Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like: 48He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock. 49But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house upon the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.

And also when Satan tries to tempt you with worry,or depression or bad feelings like suicidal thoughts you can do this instead- 1 Thessalonians 5:18- In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
If you see tempted to judge or condemn others,say-Luke 6:37-Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven:
If you are tempted not to respect your parents say -Ephesians 6 -2Honour thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise 3That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth.

If you need God to listen to you recall- The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
So you can say-Psalm 51- 10 Create in me a clean heart,O God : and renew a right spirit within me.
And don’t forget to say - 1 Peter 5:8- Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.
DO YOU KNOW THAT- I Corinthians 10:13-There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man:but God is faithful,who will not suffer you to be tempted above that you are able;but will with the temptation also make a way to escape,that ye may be able to bear it.
And when you are tempted remember- James 1- 13Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: 14But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. 15Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.
But you can say- James 1:12- Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.
2 Timothy 3:16- All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
And please don’t neglect to tell everyone you can about this to help them to resist temptation like you have cause- Romans 14:12- So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.
Know that- Ephesians 5:25- 25Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; 26That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, 27That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
But you should know that the Bible says that- Romans 9:16- So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.
Matthew 5:7- Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
This means that we should be merciful so that we can obtain mercy.
And remember not to-Ephesians 4:27-Neither give place to the devil.


How to make Heaven.
Jesus said that it is not all those who call him Lord Lord that will make the Kingdom of heaven but those who do the will of the father in heaven. Christians are the ones who call Jesus Lord so it means it is not all Christians who will make heaven but those who do the will of the father in heaven.
The bible says ask and receive-Let’s ask for the grace to do the will of the father as the Bible also says it is God who helps us do his will. Philippians 2:13 -For it is God who is producing in you both the desire and the ability to do what pleases him.
In Jesus name-Heavenly Father, we thank you for your loving kindness and tender mercies. Please grant us the grace to do your will. Amen.
We can also ask for the faith of a mustard seed, and for God to make us humble, hardworking and kind.
How to resist Satan
Satan is an evil Spirit and the head of many demons that tempts us to sin so that we can go to hell and burn forever. Jesus resisted temptation from Satan in the wilderness with the word of God. He said- Man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that comes out of the mouth of God.
You need faith in God word to resist temptation. If you don’t have faith, you can ask and receive faith cause faith come from God
The sword of the Spirit is our weapon against the enemy. Ephesians 6:17- And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
We need to resist him with the Word of God and prayer. The whole Bible is the truth that can be used to resist the devil.
Satan tempts us with pride-We resist with the Word of God-Pride goes before destruction
Satan tempts us with fear-We resist with the Word of God-God has not given me a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and a sound mind.
The sword of the Spirit is our weapon against the enemy. Ephesians 6:17- And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
We need to resist him with the Word of God and prayer
Satan tempts us with loss of confidence-We sing- I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. I am I am more than a conqueror. Christians songs are from the Word of God so can be used to resist the devil.
Satan tempts us with unforgiveness-We remember the parable of the unforgiving servant..Parables in the bible are also the Sword of the Spirit (part of our battle armor)
Satan tempts us with a bad habit-We pray constantly and also follow practical advice like washing our hands often
. The merciful will go to heaven
The bible says Blessed are the merciful for they shall obtain mercy. This means that the merciful shall go to heaven when they die and the wicked shall go to hell. God is angry with the wicked every day.
Jesus gave the example of the Good Samaritan who helped the injured stranger he meet. He said we should Go and do likewise -Be merciful like the Good Samaritan. This means we Christians are commanded to be like the Good Samaritian.You will go to hell if you disobey God commands.
Meanwhile the rich man lived in luxury every day and did not help Lazarus the poor beggar with even the food that fell from his table. He was sent to hell and begged for a drop of water.
A pastor wife said we should do acts of mercy. Do you know that little drops of water make a mighty ocean? .If we do at least a kind act a day (a little drop) it would make a mighty ocean of kindness
We must be kind in thought, word and actions to everyone all the time.
Grace to resist being made to sin by other people
Sometimes people like our boss, family and friends can try to make us do something wrong. If we do it, we could go to hell. The Bible says- Hebrews 10:26- If we deliberately go on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no further sacrifice for sins remains, 27but only a fearful expectation of judgment and raging fire that will consume all adversaries. 28Anyone who rejected the Law of Moses died without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. 29How much more severely do you think one deserves to be punished who has trampled on the Son of God, profaned the blood of the covenant that sanctified him, and insulted the Spirit of grace?.
However, God will forgive you from intentional sin if you repent from intentional sin like he did David when he sinned with Bathsheba. God never changes
What do we do then to not be pushed into sin?.
A christain was told by her boss to do something wrong and though she was worried about losing her job, she told him no and guess what? The boss still kept her and treated her with respect.
I heard a story of another Christian couple who really needed money and the husband went for a job interview but was told he would have to sin on the job if he took the job. He went home and talked to his wife about it and they decided to refuse the job. But the people then said it was only a test and gave him the job
We resist with the Word of God-Daniel was told not to pray but he still prayed and when he was cast into the lion’s den, God saved him.
Also Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego were told to worship the golden image. They said God is able to deliver them but if not, they would still not serve the golden image. God saved them.
Even if we are beaten and killed like Jesus was, we should be happy because the bible says – Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness sake for theirs is the Kingdom of heaven

Nigerians Don’t Mistreat Widows
Sometimes, in Nigeria, a man may die and his brothers and other relatives may take away the property of the man from the widow and his kids.
I think brothers who do this are heartless. How would you feel if someone did that to your widow and kids? The widow and her children have the right to inherit her husband property. The bible says a married couple is one.
I know Satan is behind this. Do you know that God is angry with the wicked every day? The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom.
Would you want to face God when you die and tell him you disposed a widow when James 1:27- Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.
Dorcas in the bible helped the widows and God raised her from the dead. We should treat widows with love and get God blessing.
If you fall into Satan temptation, and treat widows badly, God will send you to hell.
We can resist Satan and his demons with the Word of God and prayer. John 17:17 says-Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.
Satan (a unseen spirit) whispers into our ears to beat a widow-You resist with the Word of God-True religion is to visit widows and orphans in their affliction and to stay undefiled from the world.

God is still the same
Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever. In the Bible, he healed the sick, raised the dead, cast out demons.
Since Jesus Christ is still the same, it means he would still help us today. Cast all your cares on him because he cares about you.
Anyone who has any problem should pray to God. God will always help those who call on him. Believe and you will receive.
If you even have problem believing, you can ask God will help your unbelief. Do God will and everything will end up fine.
What is God will? John 6:29- Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.
Treat others the way you want to be treated. Help the poor, visit the sick, and clothe the naked.
You should avoid hurting any other person because God loves them very intensely. Psalm 8:4 says- What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?
If you do good to other humans, just image how much God would bless you because he loves everybody.
Don’t be fooled by Satan. He wants us to be wicked to other people so we can perish. He hates humanity and is our worst enemy.
Satan(an unseen demon) would come to tempt you to not care about others-Resist with-God loves them.
We can resist Satan with the word of God and prayer. Psalm 119:11- Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.

God loves humanity very much. He gave his only begotten son to die on the cross to save us from endless pain. He is truly love.
Let’s work hard to do God’s will. We would never escape if we neglect so great a salvation.
Just imagine our lives when we see Jesus. We would be so blessed. There would be no more suffering and Revelation 21:4 says-And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
God loves us so much.
But we have to be careful of Satan. He wants to destroy us completely. You want to do well at your job, he will try to stop you. You want to marry the love of your life, he tries to stop you again. You want to enter heaven, he would do anything to stop you.
But our God is All-powerful. He wants
to save us all. The summary of all God command is to love God with all our heart, all our soul, all our mind and all our strength and to love our neighbor as ourself.
Jesus resisted Satan with the Word of God when Satan came to tempt him in the wilderness. The bible says we should take up the sword of the Spirit which is the word of God.
This means we can resist temptations with the word of God and prayer.
Satan (a evil Spirit) comes and whispers in our minds that you should lie, steal or hate others-We resist with the Sword of the Spirit-There is no weapon fashioned against me that can prosper.
If any believers keep sinning intentionally, they would go to hell and burn for all eternity.

Through good times and bad times, it is good to give thanks to God. God is good, he doesn’t want us to suffer hunger, pain or sorrow. The devil is behind all the trouble we are facing. Always resist him.
Satan came to tempt Eve and caused humanity fall. Now he goes around tempting us so we don’t inherit salvation.
Satan doesn’t want us to have any joy or peace. He just wants to steal any happiness from us. He can even tempt other people to hurt us.
But there is one thing we can do. We must always give thanks to Our Saviour, Jesus Christ. This would cause Satan to flee from us.
Don’t let him trick you that God doesn’t want
to help you, that he doesn’t care about you. Resist with –Satan is a liar and a deceiver from the beginning.
James 4:7- Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.. You can resist Satan with the Sword of the Spirit which is the word of God.
The plans God has for us are of good, to give us a future and a hope. He wants us to be happy and to have a great future. Trust God with all your heart and he would help you through any difficulty whether illness, demonic oppression and temptations.
Always be on your grand. Satan is like those lions in documentary that hunt other animals. They hide and lie in wait and pursue the wildebeest.
Satan is seeking who to devour. He is a lion and humans are his prey. Our only hope of salvation lies in Jesus Christ.
Satan wants Christians to deliberately sin so he can take us to hell when we die. But God forbid. We would all go to heaven, by God grace.

The character Nancy in Oliver Twist said-It is never too late to be sorry for the past and to start a new life.
Everyone has made mistakes in the past that they regret. We can’t change the past, no matter how hard we try. We may be filled with pain over our past or the pain other people have put though.
God wants us to forgive ourselves. Hebrews 8:12-For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.
If the Living God has forgiven us and forgotten our sins, how can we not forgive ourselves and forget our past mistakes?. What matters now is that we should learn from our past mistakes.
However we can’t take God’s mercy for granted. If you don’t repent and stop sinning intentionally, you would perish.
The Bible says- Hebrews 10- If we deliberately go on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no further sacrifice for sins remains, but only a fearful expectation of judgment and raging fire that will consume all adversaries. Anyone who rejected the Law of Moses died without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. How much more severely do you think one deserves to be punished who has trampled on the Son of God, profaned the blood of the covenant that sanctified him, and insulted the Spirit of grace?.
However, wisdom is the principal thing and wisdom tells us God will forgive you for intentional sin if you repent from intentional sin like he did David when he sinned with Bathsheba. God never changes.
If you are afraid God wont forgive you because you sinned intentionally, don’t worry because God is a merciful God. It is God who makes us do his will so as long as you are doing his will, it means he is making you do his will and he has forgiven you. Philippians 2:13-For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.
Also in the New Testament, under the new covenant, he forgave a Christian who was sexually immoral(meaning he forgave a Christian who sinned intentionally so he can forgive you if you repent)
1 Corinthians 5:- 1It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father's wife. 2And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you.
3For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this deed, 4In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, 5To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.

But after the sexually immoral Christain repented Paul said in 2 Corinthians 2- 6Sufficient to such a man is this punishment, which was inflicted of many. 7So that contrariwise ye ought rather to forgive him, and comfort him, lest perhaps such a one should be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow. 8Wherefore I beseech you that ye would confirm your love toward him.

So don’t worry, just repent and do God’s will. Just be merciful then God will surely forgive you because the Matthew 5:7 says-Blessed are the merciful for they shall obtain mercy. This means the merciful shall go to heaven.

How to make Heaven.
Jesus said that it is not all those who call him Lord Lord that will make the Kingdom of heaven but those who do the will of the father in heaven. Christians are the ones who call Jesus Lord so it means it is not all Christians who will make heaven but those who do the will of the father in heaven.
The bible says ask and receive-Let’s ask for the grace to do the will of the father as the Bible also says it is God who makes us do his will. Philippians 2:13 -For it is God who is producing in you both the desire and the ability to do what pleases him.
In Jesus name-Heavenly Father, we thank you for your loving kindness and tender mercies. Please grant us the grace to do your will. Amen.
We can also ask for the faith of a mustard seed, and for God to make us humble, hardworking and kind.
How to resist Satan
Satan is an evil Spirit and the head of many demons that tempts us to sin so that we can go to hell and burn forever. Jesus resisted temptation from Satan in the wilderness with the word of God. He said- Man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that comes out of the mouth of God.
You need faith in God word to resist temptation. If you don’t have faith, you can ask and receive faith cause faith come from God
The sword of the Spirit is our weapon against the enemy. Ephesians 6:17- And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
We need to resist him with the Word of God and prayer. The whole Bible is the truth that can be used to resist the devil.
Satan tempts us with pride-We resist with the Word of God-Pride goes before destruction
Satan tempts us with fear-We resist with the Word of God-God has not given me a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and a sound mind.
The sword of the Spirit is our weapon against the enemy. Ephesians 6:17- And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
We need to resist him with the Word of God and prayer
Satan tempts us with loss of confidence-We sing- I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. I am I am more than a conqueror. Christians songs are from the Word of God so can be used to resist the devil.
Satan tempts us with unforgiveness-We remember the parable of the unforgiving servant..Parables in the bible are also the Sword of the Spirit (part of our battle armour)

And in all temptations we can pray, thank God (In everything give thanks) and praise and worship God.
. The merciful will go to heaven
The bible says Blessed are the merciful for they shall obtain mercy. This means that the merciful shall go to heaven when they die and the wicked shall go to hell. God is angry with the wicked every day.
Jesus gave the example of the Good Samaritan who helped the injured stranger he meet. He said we should Go and do likewise -Be merciful like the Good Samaritan.
Meanwhile the rich man lived in luxury every day and did not help Lazarus the poor beggar with even the food that fell from his table. He was sent to hell and begged for a drop of water.
A pastor wife said we should do acts of mercy. Do you know that little drops of water make a mighty ocean? .If we do at least a kind act a day (a little drop) it would make a mighty ocean of kindness
We must be kind in thought, word and actions to everyone all the time.
Grace to resist being made to sin by other people
Sometimes people like our boss, family and friends can try to make us do something wrong. If we do it, we could go to hell. The Bible says- Hebrews 10:26- If we deliberately go on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no further sacrifice for sins remains, 27but only a fearful expectation of judgment and raging fire that will consume all adversaries. 28Anyone who rejected the Law of Moses died without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. 29How much more severely do you think one deserves to be punished who has trampled on the Son of God, profaned the blood of the covenant that sanctified him, and insulted the Spirit of grace?.
However, God will forgive you from intentional sin if you repent from intentional sin like he did David when he sinned with Bathsheba. God never changes
What do we do then to not be pushed into sin?.
A christain was told by her boss to do something wrong and though she was worried about losing her job, she told him no and guess what? The boss still kept her and treated her with respect.
I heard a story of another Christian couple who really needed money and the husband went for a job interview but was told he would have to sin on the job if he took the job. He went home and talked to his wife about it and they decided to refuse the job. But the people then said it was only a test and gave him the job
We resist with the Word of God-Daniel was told not to pray but he still prayed and when he was cast into the lion’s den, God saved him.
Also Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego were told to worship the golden image. They said God is able to deliver them but if not, they would still not serve the golden image. God saved them.
Even if we are beaten and killed like Jesus was, we should be happy because the bible says – Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness sake for theirs is the Kingdom of heaven

HOW TO GET AND KEEP TRUE LOVE
Love gives. God gave his only son to die for us. If someone really loves you, he would give to you. You can ask God to send you the love of your life. Believe and you will receive.
1The person you marry must be a Christian who does God will.
The person must not only be a Christian but he should be a doer of the word (e.g. hardworking, humble and kind).
2 YOURSELF
Before you find true love, work on yourself. You want to be someone you yourself would choose to marry. Are you a doer of the word? Be of good character. Put God first and be a devout Christian.
These are tips to help you win the love and respect of the one you love.You should know that respect is earned so you must be of good character to be respected.
A Be chase-
It is important to girls should keep their bodies pure because you could lose the respect of the man of your dreams if you continue to be promiscuous. And if a guy cannot respect you, he might love you platonically but won’t be in love with you. You can repent if you have been promiscuous and God can help him respect you.
B Keep your body healthy-You want to look nice for the one you love. Eat in moderation and exercise regularly to keep your body attractive. Being fat can lead the one you like to disrespect you.
Care for your skin, teeth, hair and dress decently. Indecent dressing can lead the one you like to disrespect you. But don’t over focus on your appearance.
C Be clean- Keep your entire body and home clean and break all dirty habits. Dirty habits can make the one you love and others disrespect you. You can pray any time you are tempted to break any dirty habit as dirty habits is a temptation from Satan. Use the Sword of the Spirit which is the Word of God against him.
D Work hard-at your job, housework and God’s work. This will make the one you like respect you.
E Also, be well-behaved. Don’t talk too much as being a talkative can lead the one you like to disrespect you.
F. Honesty is the best policy in a relationship. Telling lies can lead to distrust.
G. Let me add this tip. When a guy tells you to do something wrong like have sex or get drunk and you tell him no and reject him of course, he would even respect you more for it. On the other hand giving in would make him disrespect you. This is because people respect those who stick to their values. Sticking to your valves shows you have integrity.
Respect is necessary for someone to fall in love with you and you must continue to do all this if you want him to continue to respect you (meaning he can remain in love with you)
Try to read the bible and do the will of God in every area of your life. If you face any difficulty, pray.
Lastly, don’t make the guy you like the only focus of your life or he would probably run. Put God first and work on your own dreams, hobbies and spend time with friends.
3 Friendship-
Love is friendship. It is best to start a relationship as friends to get to know the person first. Build the friendship slow and steady. Don’t rush
These are ways to give your love.
A Words of appreciation
Always speak kindly to him. If you get angry, you can walk away or pray. Don’t ever say anything mean or harsh. People can remember hurtful words long after and it can ruin a relationship. But don’t be insincere in your compliments because he might notice and it is wrong.
B Attention
You should spend time with him. Pay regular attention to him. Don’t be obsessed with your phone. Listen to him when he talks.
C Gifts
Lots of people like gifts. But you can’t buy love so you don’t need to buy expensive gifts to win his love. He either likes you or he doesn’t.
You can buy him something small like couples tea mugs and it would touch his heart. Or as a sign of love, you can buy him something he really really wants, like a phone or something he really needs (e.g. a Christian book)
D Acts of service
Things like taking a lunch box to his office can win his heart. People in Nigeria say the way to a man heart is through his stomach. Other act of service may be helping him with his work etc

E Physical touch-Touch him like your own brother until married. You can hug and peck your brother, hold hands etc. Sleeping with any man (including the person you like) outside of marriage can lead the one you like to disrespect you.
E A friend in need is a friend indeed.
This means that when the guy you like is in need, you should be there for him in any way you can. This is true love.
If you underwater a flower (the relationship) it dies and if you over water the flower, it dies too. A relationship is like a flower. If you are uncaring, it can die and if you are obsessive it can die too. So, just be a very caring friend.
F Kindness- It is said the way to known a person character is to watch how he treats those beneath him. He could only be pretending to love you. You will be under the person when you marry. If he treats them badly, he could also treat you badly.
You should also listen to what people say about him because in a multitude of counsellors there is safety.

4 Respect

The bible says a wife must respect her husband so you must marry someone you respect. Watch a person character. He has to be a doer of the word. Does he behave like a born again Christian. Avoid sluggard, drunkards and wilful sinners
What is respect? It is to hold someone in high regard. It is putting someone on a pedestal.
His character counts. You have to marry someone with a good character and he has to treat you like a queen. He has to respect you too.
You don’t have to get angry if he make mistakes a lot but if he shows a real sign of disrespect like pushing you away and rejecting you, you should leave or else he won't respect you. Remember the famous saying-if you love someone, let him go, if he doesn't come back, he was never yours.
5 Passion
I read that most people want to marry someone they find attractive so it is important. He must not be conventionally handsome but you should find him attractive.
Also remember that even if you follow this advice, some people are not just that into you. Not everyone is going to fall for you.
Do all this steps to win his heart and continue to do them to sustain true love
Five steps to success
Five steps to success
1 Dreams
Dreams are meant to show you the way.Dream big.It is said that we should not put all our eggs in one basket.You may have a dream to own a mall or write a book of poems.Satan will come to tell that if dreams were horses,even beggars would ride. You resist with- I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me,I am more than a conqueror.
2. Plan
It is said to be important to write your plan.it had been noted that more of those who write their plan
succeed.Divide your day into different parts-a time for
devotion,a time to work(maybe eight hours at the mall and a hour on your book of poems) and a time to sleep.Do your most important tasks first eg devotion.There is a time for everything.
It is said that little drops of water make a
mighty ocean.The effort you put in each day is the little drop.Each little drop counts. Satan would come in to
trick you to procrastinate just for that day(he can come every day to tell you to procrastinate). You resist him with wisdom-Procrastination is the killer of dreams,procrastination is the thief of time.Dreams people had-of curing cancer or of singing great songs were ruined because of procrastination.

3 Persistance
Persistence lead to success.To persist means to keep trying even after you fall.Don't give up.
If every day you take an axe and hit a tree 5 times,it would eventually fall.
Daniel fasted and prayed for 21 days.Than an angel came. You should persist in prayer too.
Satan tell you to give uo.Resist him with-Fighting.This is because we are fighting against demons.

4 Pursue excellence and success would run after you.
If you shoot an arrow without taking aim,all the arrows would fall to the ground.So,use your intelligence.
Let's say I want to grow a flower.I would learn the best soil the flower needs and all the necessary information to take care of the flower like how not to over-water and under water the flower.Put in your best effort but don't over do it.
Satan would try to tell you not to pursue excellence-Resist him-The bible says that whatever work your hand sees to do,you should do it with all your might.This includes using your intelligence and following your instincts. Practice makes perfect.People learn better by doing not reading.
5 Consistency-It means to do your duties all the time.Let's say you write a great book of poems this year.To be consistent,every year till you retire or die,you dream,plan,persist,and pursue excellence to write another great book of poems.
It means you don't just succeed this year and rest on your laurels (be satisfied with past achievements and cease to pursue future achievements). You have to continue to succeed over and over again.
Satan would try to tempt you to be inconsistent-You resist him with prayer.
Also for making heaven, You can dream of making heaven, plan to do God’s will, persist in following Jesus, pursue excellence by hearing God’s word and being consistent( no more backsliding)

How to make Heaven.
Jesus said that it is not all those who call him Lord Lord that will make the Kingdom of heaven but those who do the will of the father in heaven. Christians are the ones who call Jesus Lord so it means it is not all Christians who will make heaven but those who do the will of the father in heaven.
The bible says ask and receive-Let’s ask for the grace to do the will of the father as the Bible also says it is God who makes us do his will. Philippians 2:13 -For it is God who is producing in you both the desire and the ability to do what pleases him.
In Jesus name-Heavenly Father, we thank you for your loving kindness and tender mercies. Please grant us the grace to do your will. Amen.
We can also ask for the faith of a mustard seed, and for God to make us humble, hardworking and kind.
How to resist Satan
Satan is an evil Spirit and the head of many demons that tempts us to sin so that we can go to hell and burn forever. Jesus resisted temptation from Satan in the wilderness with the word of God. He said- Man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that comes out of the mouth of God.
You need faith in God word to resist temptation. If you don’t have faith, you can ask and receive faith cause faith come from God
The sword of the Spirit is our weapon against the enemy. Ephesians 6:17- And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
We need to resist him with the Word of God and prayer. The whole Bible is the truth that can be used to resist the devil.
Satan tempts us with pride-We resist with the Word of God-Pride goes before destruction
Satan tempts us with fear-We resist with the Word of God-God has not given me a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and a sound mind.

However, God will forgive you from intentional sin if you repent from intentional sin like he did David when he sinned with Bathsheba. God never changes
What do we do then to not be pushed into sin?.

We resist with the Word of God-Daniel was told not to pray but he still prayed and when he was cast into the lion’s den, God saved him.
Also Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego were told to worship the golden image. They said God is able to deliver them but if not, they would still not serve the golden image. God saved them.
Even if we are beaten and killed like Jesus was, we should be happy because the bible says – Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness sake for theirs is the Kingdom of heaven
