Guard your spirit of marriage within you
Relationship of intimate contact will changes you .
Marriage is not given to control us but make
- get married to enlarge your life & not to shrink your life
Matthew
19:11 But Jesus said, “Not everyone is mature enough to live a married life. It requires a certain aptitude and grace. Marriage isn’t for everyone. Some, from birth seemingly, never give marriage a thought. Others never get asked—or accepted. And some decide not to get married for kingdom reasons. But if you’re capable of growing into the largeness of marriage, do it.”
We need to rise & build.
We need to build with intent .
Gen 21:27-28(msg )
God created women to be women to multiple i'e to make something no good to goodness .
There is something in women to nurture
Man created to create structure
Women created to nurture
We don't build big but building safe .
Man guard the house & women guard the heart
Women can be wounded by each other
Man has the physical (external )strength ( voluntary )& women have the internal strength ( - involuntary ie tongue )
We (women ) speak what we carried within .
- we are Christ's representative
- we got to be intentional in making things right
God loves it when His people wants honour Him
God listens in to conversation about Him & glorifying Him.
What you want your end story what is going to look like ?
Write it down .
We need to have vision

Matt 10:26-28(msg )
Matthew
10:26 “Don’t be intimidated. Eventually everything is going to be out in the open, and everyone will know how things really are. So don’t hesitate to go public now.
Man plan wars , women plans wedding
Worship means under His rule & not just acknowledge Him
Just Lucifer identify himself does not meant he is right .
✅✅" All in "✅✅
We need the mercy of God when we do stupid things .
Romans
1:26 Worse followed. Refusing to know God, they soon didn’t know how to be human either—women didn’t know how to be women, men didn’t know how to be men. Sexually confused, they abused and defiled one another, women with women, men with men—all lust, no love. And then they paid for it, oh, how they paid for it—emptied of God and love, godless and loveless wretches.
1 John
2:18 Children, time is just about up. You heard that Antichrist is coming. Well, they’re all over the place, antichrists everywhere you look. That’s how we know that we’re close to the end.
Defiling of women is the end times .but women is awaken
1 John
2:20 But you belong. The Holy One anointed you, and you all know it. I haven’t been writing this to tell you something you don’t know, but to confirm the truth you do know, and to remind you that the truth doesn’t breed lies.
The thief kills steal and destroy because you have something valuable .
You need to know you belong .
Jesus makes us fit . He will impart wisdom and truth .
Don't allow people to label us.
The great commission is our permission
2 Cor 6:1-10( msg )
2 Corinthians 6:1 Companions as we are in this work with you, we beg you, please don’t squander one bit of this marvelous life God has given us. God reminds us,I heard your call in the nick of time;The day you needed me, I was there to help.Well, now is the right time to listen, the day to be helped. Don’t put it off; don’t frustrate God’s work by showing up late, throwing a question mark over everything we’re doing. Our work as God’s servants gets validated—or not—in the details. People are watching us as we stay at our post, alertly, unswervingly . . . in hard times, tough times, bad times; when we’re beaten up, jailed, and mobbed; working hard, working late, working without eating; with pure heart, clear head, steady hand; in gentleness, holiness, and honest love; when we’re telling the truth, and when God’s showing his power; when we’re doing our best setting things right; when we’re praised, and when we’re blamed; slandered, and honored; true to our word, though distrusted; ignored by the world, but recognized by God; terrifically alive, though rumored to be dead; beaten within an inch of our lives, but refusing to die; immersed in tears, yet always filled with deep joy; living on handouts, yet enriching many; having nothing, having it all.
That 's the spectrum of our life
2 Tim 1:6-7(ESV)
~ fan the flame within us
We need find sacred space not for salvation but a great commission & compassion
Matt 28:16-20( msg)
Some all in to worship Jesus but some held back
Some give much others all.
Settle the issue of eternity .
Friend
The lust of the flash
The lust of the eye
The pride of life
Only one person deserve our worship
Acts 4:4:29-31
(Passion translation )
