Married or Not, Say with Me.....Men

Many men have refused to settle down partly because they are scared of spending the rest of their lives with someone they may wake up to dislike someday...Truth is, even with those married, there are times you contend with your reasons for choosing the woman you are with. Some win, some don't and that is where infidelity starts.
As champions, it is important to know that you will get not only what you say, but what you believe. So please, either married or not, Say with me...


My wife, my covering
My wife covers me better than anyone
My wife is endowed with strength to support me in fortifying our home
She is a virtuous woman, kind, loving, caring and daring
My wife is a risk taker in things that are beneficial and important to our family
My wife is a strong pillar of help, she builds and not destroys
My wife is my adviser, she has wisdom to resolve issues and put me in perspective
She puts her family first after God and guides us jealously
She bears godly children and teaches them in accordance with God's principles
She is the life of our home, she exudes joy, peace and favor.
She is a gentle lover, other men call me blessed that I found her
She is a good thing and my reward, therefore she does not cause me sorrow or worry
She is a passionate giver and sower of good and godly seeds
She gives me rest of mind, she is not a trouble maker
She inspires me to be the best
She believes in me like no other
She prays for me and the children with zeal and zest

 


Married or Not, Say with ME....Women

Dear Ladies,

If you desire a better husband in your man, then you have to confess it into existence. Words don't die, they are life and have power. Remember God brought the Earth into existence by Words, so speak it and it will come to pass. Consistency is the KEY...you can add more of yours too!!!

His place is with kings and not mere men because he is crowned by diligence
He is the talk of all nations because he is a solution provider

He lavishes his love on me and the family, he doesn't neglect our needs
He works hard and smart to provide for us and ensures we don't lack any good thing
My husband is influential and controls great wealth and resources
He is coordinated and knows what to do at all times, always on point
My husband's resourcefulness has no equal, he is helpful and mindful of us
His words are of encouragement and not disdain.
He is an uplifter, no dull moments with him
My husband is the best father a child can ask for, always sensitive to their needs
He motivates them in godly paths and sows seeds on their behalf
My husband is a good teacher, patiently teaching us what God expects of us as a family
My husband is a God lover, he draws us closer to God and not away from him

Unmet Expectations......2

We started the relationship and we talked a lot but I didn’t raise the issue of settling down with him because I assumed it was a done deal. He often referred to his siblings abroad and how they were trying to get his mum there too. He schooled in the UK and came to Nigeria to serve and to have some practical experience of the work terrain. All this strengthen my faith in that we definitely were on the right course. Our courtship was fast, we got married, I forgave his siblings for not being able to make it because I felt we would be meeting up with them soon, so there was no hurry. Weeks rolled into months and it was our 1st wedding anniversary. My husband said he had a surprise for me and all my mind could go think was ‘YES LORD, it was about time’. I went through the day’s work with high expectations, even humming while working with a smile on my face. Finally, my dream was coming true and through. I had started thinking of what to wear for our dinner date later in the night and had gisted my closest colleague about it. I had grown tired of my Job already and was just waiting for the right moment to tender my resignation, this was it! I drafted my resignation letter and made up my mind to drop it at the end of the month so I could get my full salary and give advanced notice.

I closed early from work, went home to take a shower and relax a bit before hubby got home. He came in about 30mins after me, showered and we went out. I was nervous throughout the meal but I calmed down enough to enjoy the meal. I found out what the surprise was in the course of the meal and my heart sank. He had been offered permanent employment with full fringe benefits at an international medical practicing organization. To say the least, I was very happy for him but what about my dreams of going out of the country and furthering my career as well? So I put it to him straight and asked how this news was going to affect our plans to settle abroad and I got the shocker of my life. He looked at me and told me he had never discussed or had plans of settling outside the country. From that moment, I lost my peace. Confusion set in immediately.
