DO YOU LOVE ME?

Couples or people in relationships often get surprised and dumbfounded whenever their partners asked them the question - do you love me? You know how deep and big the words "I love you" is, so is the same question "do you love me?". Many young people in the circular world just use the word "I love you" anyhow and leave the opposite sex vulnerable. The words have been bastardized so much among us humans but when it comes to the relationship between men and God (Trinity), can you judge your observations if such is the same scenario?

Nowadays, believers just open up their mouths to say "I love you Lord Jesus", "I love God", "I love the Holy Spirit" etc without checking themselves if truly they've demonstrated love to God and reciprocated the love of God back to Him. Especially when the song "I love you forever" by Tye Tribbett becomes so popular to almost every (modern) believers and churches. Well, you might say it's impossible for humans even believers to love God the way He loves us, but without much ado, let's unveil this "I love you" and "Do you love me?" syndrome.

Few days ago, the Holy Spirit asked me "Do you love me?" and I was amazed because I've never heard Him ask such in a long time. Most times, it is I who used to ask myself the question in my Spirit "Do you love God?" or "How much do you love God?", not God Himself asking me. So, I asked Him after His question "Do I love you?". It sounds funny at first but then on a serious note, I began to search within myself (my heart) just like King David and I found out I've not loved Him enough. The next thing I did was to apologize for not loving Him as much as He would to me and prayed that He helps me to do so henceforth. Immediately, I felt a sound peace within me.

Do you know how shocked Peter was when Jesus asked him if he loved Him? Although he answered straight jokingly in a surprised manner at first with "Sir, you know I love you" but when Jesus asked the third time, you could tell how amazed he was when he told Him "Sir, you know all things, you know I love you". Peter was grieved because he truly loved God but Jesus knew Peter hadn't loved Him as much as He wanted yet. That is a test of love.

Instead of waiting for God (through the Holy Spirit) to ask you if you love Him, why don't you resort to asking Him daily if you love Him and plead with Him to help you love Him more until He tells you personally that "I love you" like He did to Lawrence Oyor? I believe it was at that moment Evangelist Lawrence Oyor started to call himself "a lover of God" unlike many who do that ignorantly today. Most times, listen to the pet name the Holy Ghost calls you, it shows how deep your relationship is with or to Him.

I have a free gift to the singles, engaged and married. It was a secret the Holy Spirit revealed to me few days back on the foundation of a WhatsApp relationship meeting. Thanks to the founder of Transformative Pen - Timilehin David and the guest speaker - Mfon Grace that night.

Do you know that the best and the first secret to loving people (both strangers, friends, loved ones - families and Co and enemies) is loving God first? The proof of that is in 1Jh 4:19-21. If you love God, it becomes impossible for you not to love men especially your fellow believers. And if you love God, you are loving Him because He loved you first. This is just like faith in an invisible God; if you can love an invisible God, how much more the people you can see. That scripture tells us that, it becomes uneasy and impossible for you to love God who you cannot see when you don't love your brethren. The reason why you are struggling in loving any type of person irrespective of their relationship or character with you is because you are not loving God the way you should.

Lastly, to the singles, you still have time and chance to love God to the extreme before the will of God (your life partner) comes in. And for those in marriage, go back to your first love (God), make things right and pray for or with your partner to love God like never before; trust me, you are just starting to have the best moments in your marriage.

LETTER TO MY FUTURE WIFE (a promised reference to Timilehin David's similar letter years ago)

If you are reading this, it is to show how highly God has proposed and buoyantly vouched for you as the apple of his eyes. To a royal diadem, a rare gem, the good thing I'll find whose worth is beyond rubies, the brightest star in the sky I'm staring at and looking forward to embrace her shining light, my other half, the fairest among women (just like my fairy mum) whose heart is golden and cannot be bought by the worth of earthly treasures, one whose stance would cause the fall of a thousand men, and her walking steps draw the gaze of mighty men. To my future wife, whose eyes I would love to fix my gaze, whose cheeks I would love to caress, whose succulent lips I would love to taste like the honeycomb and beautiful body I would love to glue onto like the magnet on the day of matrimony. Your smile is a beaming hope, your laughter a contagious joy and your teeth like the bright spring in the sunny day. I hope reading this won't make you think I am carnal because ...

THE OTHER SIDE OF LOVE YOU DON'T KNOW

You might want to wonder, does LOVE have any other side (just like a coin though single but having two SIDES)? Do I not know about the entirety of love or does it still transcend beyond the description and exposition given to it by Apostle Paul in 1Cor 13? Do you know that, just the way you can't decipher all that God is even though He fully demonstrated His nature of love by becoming a Father and sacrificing Himself (the Soul - Jesus the Christ as His only Son) for humanity; you can't also comprehend all that Love is because God is Love? Now, let me bring clarity to avoid confusion. What do I mean by the OTHER SIDE OF LOVE? Like everybody else will think, the answer to that question would be the painful side of love or the sacrifices of love or the challenges that may befall one because of love etc. But that's not where my target is, instead it is the most neglected nature of Love - BALANCE. When you hold a coin or are given a coin what attracts you the most i...

EXAMINATION TIPS FOR BELIEVERS

The secret of success is to do the common thing, uncommonly well - John D. Rockefeller. As believers, the kind of success that God wished that we manifest in is different from that of unbelievers. It is success that supercedes man's (self) ability; one that is traceable to the enabling power of God; one which can be drawn, associates and is enabled (in and) by the Spirit, so that we cannot boast of our power, knowledge, skills and every of our ability but by the strength, quickening and enabling power of God. This is applicable to all spheres: Business, Work, Education etc including Ministry. But due to the course of this writing, I'll be centering on exams especially students that are believers. If you aren't one of them, make a quick deliberate decision and be convinced of your salvation, else, you are missing out amongst Christ's family (and the benefits of being a Son, a few of what I'll be sharing here). According to Josh 1:8 - KJV:This book of the law sh...

TRANCES OF YOUR PROPOSED STATURE

Num 24:4 - He hath said, which heard the words of God, which saw the vision of the Almighty, falling into a trance, but having his eyes open, 16 - He hath said, which heard the words of God, and knew the knowledge of the most High, which saw the vision of the Almighty, falling into a trance, but having his eyes open The word Trance is derived from the Greek word ( ekstasis ) meaning a displacement of the mind that is bewilderment, ecstasy; be amazed. The condition expressed by this word is a mental state in which the person affected is partially or wholly unconscious of objective sensations, but intensely alive to subjective impressions which, however they may be originated, are felt as if they were revelations from without. They may take the form of visual or auditory sensations or else of impressions of taste, smell, heat or cold etc. The English Dictionary defines it as a dazed or unconscious condition; (consciousness) a state of concentration, awareness and is foc...

DON'T GET DISCONNECTED, STAY ON COURSE

It is of no fallacy that there is no boundary, blockage or distance barrier of any sort to the access or manifestation of the Spirit. And indeed, there is no medium whatsoever that the Holy Spirit cannot use to demonstrate enormous power, no matter how unimaginable or unreasonable it may be ( Mantle - 2Ki 2:14, Hem of garment - Matt 14:36, Handkerchief and Apron - Acts 19:12, Shadow - Acts 5:15). You might have heard of testimonies of men about the move of God's power, either through Social Media (despite the different locations - countries and continents across the globe), Audio or Video Messages and many more. Also, it is not bad or devilish for believers to have spiritual books, messages, write ups etc on their phones, laptops or any technological gadgets. Doing these does not serve majorly any other purpose than to use them to build up ourselves spiritually and get imparted by the anointing of the Men of God. Which has helped us to access the unreachable mate...
