Religion / Re: Weaknesses That Beset Youths And How To Overcome Them by shalomm: 11:29am On Nov 22, 2015
[quote author=Highcuerayte post=40279416]And so I came online yesterday on my long abandoned 2go messenger where I had a discussion with one of my sons in the Lord. He was battling with a weakness that propelled me to create this thread to render help to youths who here, are struggling to overcome these weaknesses due to their retar'ded growth in the Spiritual realm into maturity. If this my son in the Lord at his age can be struggling with such thing I fear for the youths in the Churches and wonder if the shepherds are really shepherding.


As a youth filled with invigorating energy I have managed to list major weaknesses perhaps besetting sins which I myself have overcome in my early years in Faith and which as observed many sheep in the fold,mainly youths, are struggling with.

NOTE: If you are struggling with a weakness not listed, all you have to do is make it known. Spiritual people here will help you with it.


1. Mendacity: Mendacity means telling lies. Taking myself as an example then, I do lie. I lie with such intensity that can raised the dead if such lies are told against them,the dead I assume cannot keep quiet to such lies. But then somehow i understand mendacity is a bad trait, a trait not found in Christ. And since it's not found in Christ, it can't be in the Father and the command is "Be yee perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect" and I want to be perfect. But how did I stop telling lies?

Each weakness have other weakness(es) they feed on and the lieing spirit have a weakness he feeds on. Generalization of weaknesses as default of the flesh is dangerous and destructive to sons of God as they are not, example is fear which is the weakness that makes one lie. Fear is attributed to the spirit not the flesh. To overcome the temptation to lie you must first overcome the spirit of fear, the only way to save someone under electric shock is switching off the light not touching the person. Your problem is not lieing, fear is. You lie only when you are afraid of the revelation of Truth. You tell a lie when you are afraid of mortal men. Stop being afraid of men and you won't be telling lies again.

2. Sexual Urge: It takes me with much surprise when I see Youths complain about their Sexual urge. I wonder if I am not human since I don't feel these urges but then I see am not the only one like this, there are thousands of us like that in the Church. Excuse are it's natural, assume it is, but If not controlled you end up fornicating and masturbating,sisters in the fellowship take turns every night and before you know it you have become father Abraham with many sons. And these things above are works of the flesh which makes them sins when left unchecked gradually replaces the light in you with darkness till you see nothing wrong with what you are doing.

Sexual urges can be controlled, not only controlled but stopped at the same time. Yes, you read me well, it can be stopped. Now many shepherds understand self control is the key, what is needed to control it. But ask them how do you exercise this self control they had no knowledge of how.So how do you apply self control?

Sexual urges agreed has it's source rooted deep in the flesh.Meaning, it is dead without the flesh . So if you live every hour in the spiritual realm instead of the physical Sexual urges will cease to exist. Living in the spirit is not a difficult thing to do.Now am aware living in spirit to some means speaking in tongues. Well, that is not true, living in the spirit is having your mind more on spiritual things instead of things on earth. Above instead of below. As you set your mind on spiritual things you become spiritually alive oblivious of things around,even your body becomes dead. With the death of the body comes the end of the Sexual urges. Understand this process is painful if you have gone through it as a son of God but the fruit of it is worth the pains.

3. Anger: If asked the probabilty of not getting angry in a day you had probably said 0%. Anger in youths you will agree with me are destructive. And sometimes after the action you ask yourself why on earth did you get angry but at such time it has always been as of other times, late. From what I see you can live without getting angry.Sounds impossible but it's possible. That is if you are ready to lead a gentle and meek life.

Anger unlike Sexual urge is a thing of the mind. You overcome the mind you get rid of anger. During those days when I began the quest of conquering anger I learned from the Bible before anger there must be an offence.You must feel offended,cheated and jilted. So the problem is not anger, it's about the negative feeling,emotional feelings. So why not get rid if this negative feelings?

Getting rid of negative feelings is not a hard or impossible thing to do. It only involve adjusting your mind to insults and taking life with levity,all things as vanity.


Can you please shepherd me?

Is it a crime to love your people. If PMB love Fulani herdsman, do you want to say GEJ hate his Niger delta militants.

This guy should go on holiday and keep mute just like Ruben Abati and others did.

Family / Re: My Brother's Fiancee Is An Ex-prostitute Have Slept With. Should I Tell by shalomm: 9:23pm On Sep 25, 2015
seunfunmi33:
In 2012, I was transferred to ibadan. I have lots of girlfriends in lagos and don't want to date any new girl in ibadan, so me and my friend that was transferred to ibadan together became regulars at a brothel. Me and my friend had just 2 customers we patronize.

6 months later (early 2013) I was transferred back to Lagos . After I left, I do invite one of the girls to Lagos because she is too good in bed till I lost her contact when my phone got lost (December 2013).

We all travelled home yesterday due to sallah celebration. I was surprised when I saw my younger brother come with the prostitute in ibadan and introduced her to me as his fiancee. I just stood there not knowing what to do because I was expecting the girl to feel somehow and but she didn't even show any fear. Throughout the day She was everywhere cooking and joking with everybody around there.

I thought she was pretending not to know me but I didn't confront her, so I asked for some of her pix from my brother and sent it to that my friend if he knows the girl and he was quick to tell me that's the girl I do bleep in ibadan. But when I told him of the relationship between my brother and the girl, he told me to tell our parents and my brother so they can cancel the relationship that the girl isn't worth it.

Now am confused, I don't know if the girl is pretending or she doesn't recognize me anymore because of her numerous customers. I don't know if I should tell my brother or just keep quiet. Advice me pls

what are the differences betwen you and her? You deserve an insult. "pls advice me" mtcheew!

I hardly comment but forced to.

Mr Alfayeed please don't allow anyone make u believe that it is cos u don't have children YET u were denied. Nah. I applied with my husband and we are also in God's waiting room yet we were given the visa.

A friend also applied too and she got. She is older than her husband and also yet to have kids.

What I and my friend had in common were:
1. God'favour
2. We had both travelled with our spouses outside Nigeria for vacation and the VO asked.
3. We had jobs.

Even the oyibos know it is God that gives children and we have no power over that.

Try and go on a vacation with your wife. Your children are at your door step.

@LadyG, I think the best thing for you to do is to switch over to ghost mode on this thread.

Those of us who have benefited from the advice yourself, tzetzefly and at the initial stage, suxes2000 posted here can attest to the fact that you guys are merely extending helping hands to people who need it.

Some people here already has the mindset of following fraudulent means in their visa application and I'm sure that they will get their disappointment at the embassy.

I have been there before and got my visa, those VOs are professionals and they quite know when someone is lying or trying to play smart.

Those of you who would come after me cos of this post, please don't bother cos I won't dignify you with any response.

I rest my case!
