What is Spirituality
Going to programs, praying, fasting, speaking in tongues and sweating 😹, reading the Bible, etc. And you can’t balance with another thing what is not balanced. As armless as those things sound, you can be doing it the wrong way. You can be Spiritually imbalanced. You can be Spiritually wrong. What are you looking for 🤷🏽♀️ If your spiritual life is imbalanced on its own, trying to balance it with something else will lead to nothing 🤷🏽♀️. Anyways that is not where I’m going tonight. One day, I was telling my husband that, how can a student be challenged to pray 10 hours every day, edakun 🤷🏽♀️. Many of you are not spiritual, you are only full of noise. You appear everywhere you can, here and there.
Spirituality is defined as:
Praying diligently, i.e., knowing when to think and when to pray and when to act is everything.
Reading the word: Getting the picture of your life from the word and not just trying to put yourself up for something because people are doing it.
Service: Not just appearing everywhere there is a popular man of God, crowd, and digital camera to snap you while sweating is important. Serving God diligently and knowing when you are actually wasting your time.
If that is you, your spiritual life is imbalanced and any other load you try to carry with it will also not be balanced. And if we look into your spiritual activities, the only thing we find is Speaking in tongues at programs, posting Bible passages that have never ministered to you on status, and shouting revival on Facebook, finish.
You see in this life:
Going to pray inside the bush
Looking for an encounter that will shake you and later give you a headache and nothing more, ko necessary 🤷🏽♀️
How many of you noticed that the most popular men of God, as in the ones that will be in the top 10 list as far as the result is concerned, are not the complicated preachers 🤷🏽♀️. You will tell somebody, if I pray for you now, right here you will receive the Holy Ghost and he responded, ko possible, is it that easy 🤷🏽♀️. Even with 10 days of fasting and prayer, I have not received.
The reason we are having many spiritual nonentities is not far-fetched, we just love it when things are difficult, when things don’t come easily and I don’t know why. Did you study Yongi cho? His simplicity is something else. But you want something hard, something that will hit you and your body will be shaking. Since you have been shaking, what has happened 😹. This life is not hard, my brother 🤷🏽♀️. Serve God and get serviced. And ye shall Serve the Lord, and he shall bless…
Seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and every other thing shall be added…
The first reason you were created is so you can serve the Lord,
👉🏼Spirituality is us and the foundation, so it is spirituality that will accommodate the relationship. If you study your Bible because you want to take SFA for instance, God will speak to you too; he can’t leave you empty. Serve God and get other things you need effortlessly. God wants to show you the way. God wants to show you things that eye has not seen nor ears have heard.
Many times when we read the Bible to take a teaching, for example, we think it is because of people but if you are humble enough you will realize more than people, God wants to speak to you. If the foundation is right, everything placed on it will stand. When you saw this topic you were like wow, let me go and learn how to balance my spiritual life with a relationship when you don’t have a spiritual life.
Get your spiritual life right before thinking of other things. And that is the problem with this generation. Spirituality is not just saying or wishing or thinking it. You are not spiritual. You that go into a relationship without even saying a word of prayer is asking the question on how to balance your spiritual life with marital.
👉🏼 Do your Relationship/Marriage spiritually. They work hand in hand.
👉🏼 We can’t separate the two: Spirituality and Relationship. The two can ride safely. If you remove being spiritual and you focus on marriage, there will be trouble at the end, though it might not look like it now. Lay the foundation with God. Start with God. Let Him lead you. Let him guide.
If you still don’t know how God leads, get my book on Finding God’s will. It is just #1000. He is the only one that knows the end from the beginning.
👉🏼 Get knowledge. Let Him show you the way. Desire without knowledge is not good, and whoever makes haste with his feet misses his way.
Proverbs 19:2
Let me show you the word of God. My sister, you see the Bible now 🤷🏽♀️. DESIRE WITHOUT KNOWLEDGE is not good. You have been desiring and dreaming a good home all your life but not once have you gotten yourself a book to know how, you will agree with me that the devil is doing press up on your future. Make your hair with whatever amount o, it is your money. On your head is 10,000 or even more hair. Very easy. Knowledge will make your journey faster and smoother. So easy. Knowledge makes things very easy.
Masterclass in courtship. Smooth courtship is the result, simple. It’s an audio message that you can listen to from the comfort of your home. Masterclass in a relationship will expose you to everything you need to know about laying the right foundation, it will answer all the questions on your mind as far as the foundation is concerned. Thank God there is another admission going on in Sadoz KBI, grab the opportunity now.
👉🏼 Know that there is time for everything. But many do not know, they think they can just do anything based on the way they feel. It doesn’t work like that. As long as you are not getting the right knowledge about doing a relationship the proper way, the level of your Spirituality does not matter, you will keep failing. How will it now balance at the end 🤷🏽♀️, It cannot. Many have carried the load of love on their chest when they ought to be pursuing God and a career. Many put on their chest how to find, maintain, and grow love when they ought to be finding purpose.
And leads us to another point. So that you will not lose maritally, do it at the right season. Whatever crop or plant you are supposed to plant in a particular season and you don’t plant will not grow 🤷🏽♀️ and one will lose. There are many things you need to pay attention to now, please give them their own time and don’t choke them with marital thought. Relationship this, relationship that, why? 👉🏼 The totality of your life is not Relationship. You asking this question and that question, questions that do not concern you. You are on every relationship page on this planet Earth. How do I know my purpose?
But you have never asked yourself or anybody questions about how people make it. What is the price to pay for greatness? What if this? What if that? Is Relationship here and there. How to manage time effectively. How to pray and receive answers. How to love the Lord. Are you you, are you that? Are you lying down? Any small thing, have you eaten? Some after getting engaged, the only thing that matters in their life is how to talk from morning till evening with the one they love.
From one romantic talk to the other. It is from one topic of discussion to the other. No time to share the word of God together or pray. How do you make out time for spiritual things in your relationship? As if the only life they have is Relationship. If you meet to pray and you realize you are into a gist already, end the gist and do the right thing. Have a time scheduled only to do spiritual things. And put boundaries on the time, such as whatever happens we are not going to discuss anything before we share the word or pray every Friday 5 pm.
It could be that the first conversation we will have every Wednesday will be to share the word. It will help you. Such as, we will not exchange greetings when we meet to pray, we will just go straight to the business of the day. If you will always realize you have wasted time talking instead of praying when you scheduled it, then set stricter boundaries. Start with God. Before you begin to ask questions about their day and what they eat. Before you begin to profess love. But waiting to get married to have a firebrand lifestyle will lead you to nothing. Such a lifestyle will be easy to transfer into Marriage. Start now.
I want a fire-branded woman. 👉🏼 When you seek a fireman/woman, don’t be a fire extinguisher. Now he said let us pray, you are yawning. A man that can tarry for 20 years. Immediately he said, tell me about your best color, super story will start. You want her to be like Deborah in the Bible but you have not allowed her to fight a single war with her purpose and win. Your senses are charged and sleep run away. You have not allowed her to bring down the kingdom of darkness through her purpose. You bring her down with words, you are scared she will not submit to you again. You are scared, she will have so much power.
Make sure your actions are not Fire extinguishers, as against your wish. And you might not have a say. As she wants to do this and that, you drag her backward.
And lastly. 👉🏼 Be what you want. Be what you want. You cannot pray five minutes but want someone that prays five hours, even God is not partial, it cannot happen. You grow up deliberately. Some of you think when you marry someone that can pray for hours, something will jump out of them into you, then you begin to pray 10 hours without knowing. The equation does not balance at all. There is nothing accidental about growth.
You make an effort. You build strength. You build capacity. You tarry. You ignore your feelings. You endure. You displease yourself. You delay gratification. Be who you want to attract, and boom you are there. One step at a time, and the blend will be wonderful. Be spiritual. You will attract a spiritual person. Be spiritually balanced. You will attract a spiritually balanced person.
