I don't mean to sound rude but you also sound like you didn't also finish secondary school. Because if you did, it will be hard to believe someone educated can actually go into marriage with a partner they barely know.
These kind of marriages mostly end as a disaster except both of you are really close to God.

Marriage is meant for two people who have grown to know each other properly, trust each other, defend each other and then love each other for whoever they are whether graduate or no graduate.

This process takes a while which is why courting is necessary before marriage for both people to properly understand themselves and figure out if they believe they can both stay together forever and become a family.

I can only wish you all the best in your marriage and pray God be with both of you.
Less I forget to mention, not having a waec or being a hairdresser doest mean she cannot become big tomorrow.

TODAY’S VERSE
“But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.” Isaiah 40:31 (KJV)

TODAY’S THOUGHT
Today’s passage is one of the secrets to living a joyful life. Other translations use the word “hope” or “trust” instead of wait. But with the word “wait” you have hope and trust in action. Waiting is a verb. So often WE want to do something and don’t wait to let God do His will. We want to “fix” things when God wants to bring change. Waiting is often the hardest work we can do. And the most profitable. So when you are worried sick – wait on the Lord. When you first get up in the morning– wait on the Lord. When your child is late getting home – wait on the Lord. When your money is running out – wait on the Lord.
When you get discouraging news – wait on the Lord. Today, wait on the Lord and He will renew your strength. He will help you soar like an eagle. He will help prevent you from getting weary or fainting.

TODAY’S PRAYER
Father, help me to learn to wait on You. Help me trust You and put all my hope in You. Thank You that You have promised that I will not grow weary or faint.
AMEN

Ariiinze:

God will surely see you through whatever situation you are passing through right now. Just keep asking from him and have faith. Your blessings will locate you.
By the power in the name of Jesus.

TODAY’S VERSE
“Keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks, receives. Everyone who seeks, finds. And to everyone who knocks, the door will be opened.” Matthew 7:7-8 (NLT)

TODAY’S THOUGHT
I have probably fought with this passage more than any other portion of scripture. How many times have I had to pray over situations that seemed impossible without God’s intervention? Overcoming mental anguish, living in poverty wondering how the bills were going to be paid, facing a near fatal illness of a loved one, rebuilding a failing relationship, seeking direction when I didn’t have a clue what to do. I am sure you can add your own experiences to this list. And so you find your self before God praying. Nothing happens so you pray again and again. After a while you begin to wonder, “God are You there?” That soon turns to, “God do You care?” There is a saying that the definition of insanity is to keep doing the same thing over and over again, expecting different results. And that is how you feel. You start to doubt and then God brings you back to this passage. You read with tears in your eyes, “Keep on asking”, “Keep on seeking”, “Keep in knocking”. So you have to make a choice. Is this insanity or is it faith? There is a huge difference. The difference is God. God is in the picture so every time we pray we know that the God who is able to do all that we ask is there. He cares and He hears our prayers. He knows our situation and has not abandoned us. Because we have prayed He is moved. And so we keep on keeping on. We live by faith, we ask by faith and many times we have to wait by faith. But it is faith in the God who is there. The God who knows. The God who cares. So today, let us again hang on to His promise, “Everyone who asks, receives. Everyone who seeks, finds. And to everyone who knocks, the door will be opened.”

TODAY’S PRAYER
Father, I come to You in faith. I come asking, seeking and knocking. I come in faith believing that everyone who asks, receives, everyone who seeks, finds and to everyone who knocks, the door will be opened.
AMEN

I am not politically inclined to a fault and so far all I do is pray to God to gift Nigeria with someone that will change the current situation of things in the country.

After seven days of intensive prayer and fasting to enter this new month of October and appealing to God to save Nigeria and give victory to any of the candidates that will lift Nigeria, I was shocked to receive a revelation that non of these candidates are God's choice for a good leadership in Nigeria.

I saw two other young men who had tags of west and south standing in front of an elderly man holding a crown. The elderly man was to give the crown to one of these men and when he stood up to crown one of these men, he was walking towards the direction of the young man with the west tag but he suddenly fell down with the crown.

I didn't see him place the crown on the head of any of them before I woke up from the dream.

PLEASE YOU ALL SHOULD KEEP NIGERIA IN PRAYERS CONSTANTLY AND ENSURE YOU ASK GOD TO PLACE THE CROWN ON WHOEVER CAN TAKE NIGERIA FORWARD.

VeeVeeMyLuv:
No matter the situation it is never wise to carry your relationship/marital issues and take them to third parties to analyze and dissect, it most times never ends well, ending in premium tears.

This affects both men and women

True

Many times people feel that talking to friends about their relationship issues is the best way out.

I know someone who was in a relationship with a girl for more than two years and as all know that no relationship is always a bed of roses.

This guy had a best friend he was always complaining to anytime he has issues with his girlfriend and this his best friend was always telling him to leave the girl and say all sort of bad things about the girl. One day this guy and his girlfriend had a big fight as usual and after he listened to his best friend he decided to breakup with his girlfriend.

After about two weeks of their breakup and non communication, because they still have feelings for each other, they finally communicated and met each other to settle their differences. You will not believe that this girl burst into tears while telling him how the person he calls his best friend has been coming to meet her behind his back and wanted to introduce her to his elder brother so that they will date. This is the same girlfriend this best friend always say is very bad and the guy should leave her. That is the same girl he wants to introduce to his elder brother to marry.

What do you all think about this?

Jayrockk:
I don't totally agree with number 2 o. I know we're meant to focus on the future but if I were to find out my wife to be was a community hoe or yahoo boys toy omo I go japa o

What if you never find out or you find out years later after your marriage when you both already have kids together?

SECRETS IN MARRIAGE!

Secret 1

Everyone you marry has a weakness. Only God does not have a weakness. So if you focus on your spouse's weakness you can't get the best out of his strength.

Secret 2

Everyone has a dark history. No one is an angel. When you get married or you want to get married stop digging into someone's past. What matters most is the present life of your partner. Old things have passed away. Forgive and forget. Focus on the present and the future.

Secret 3

Every marriage has its own challenges. Marriage is not a bed of roses. Every good marriage has gone through its own test of blazing fire. True love proves in times of challenges. Fight for your marriage. Make up your mind to stay with your spouse in times of need. Remember the vow For better for worse. In sickness and in health be there.

Secret 4

Every marriage has different levels of success. Don't compare your marriage with any one else. We can never be equal. Some will be far, some behind. To avoid marriage stresses, be patient, work hard and with time your marriage dreams shall come true.

Secret 5

To get married is declaring war. When you get married you must declare war against enemies of marriage. Some enemies of marriage are:
Ignorance
Prayerlessness
Unforgiveness
Third party influence
Stinginess
Stubbornness
Lack of love
Rudeness
Laziness
Disrespect
Cheating
Be ready to fight to maintain your marriage zone.

Secret 6

There is no perfect marriage. There is no ready made marriage. Marriage is hard work. Volunteer yourself to work daily on it. Marriage is like a car that needs proper maintenance and proper service. If this is not done it will break down somewhere exposing the owner to danger or some unhealthy circumstances. Let us not be careless about our marriages.

Secret 7

God cannot give you a complete person you desire. He gives you the person in the form of raw materials in order for you to mould the person that you desire. This can only be achieved through prayer, love and Patience

Secret 8

Getting married is taking a huge risk. You can not predict what will happen in the future. Situations may change so leave room for adjustments. Husband can lose his good job or you may fail to have babies. All these require you to be prayerful otherwise you might divorce.

Secret 9

Marriage is not a contract. It is permanent. It needs total commitment. Love is the glue that sticks the couple together. Divorce start in the mind and the devil feeds the mind. Never ever entertain thoughts of getting a divorce. Never threaten your spouse with divorce. Choose to remain married. God hates divorce.

Secret 10

Every marriage has a price to pay. Marriage is like a bank account. It is the money that you deposit that you withdraw. If you don't deposit love, peace and care into your marriage, you are not a candidate for a blissful home.

So today let us pray for our marriages. Send to those you care about because you never know who you may be helping.
May God bless you all.
