Mentoring: Relationship assignment(1)

Hey Guys Can we discuss these questions next time. As usual as frankly as possible. They are the posers I put up for real men. Always better with one wife(woman) and One husband(man) Always better not to be divorced It is sometimes better to divorce or separate It is sometimes better to have a partner outside the marriage It is justified to have a partner if the spouse in house is unbearable Always better to avoid domestic violence There are some spouses that they understand only correction through domestic violence The man is always responsible for the state of the home The woman is always responsible for the state of the home They are both responsible equally They are responsible 60 to the man and 40 to the woman vice versa Always better to be married Always better to be married with kids Always better not to have girlfriends Always better to have wife as confidants Always better for man to look after wife and children Always better to resist outside influence on

Mentorship on Relationship: the discussions(2)

Ever so wonderful on the day. 40 things I want and you want. Funny, that we had common wants and don't want. Not to our amazement, but quite fascinating, we learnt that itS not mY problem or her problem, but Men issues and Women issues. Principle: An average man will want what an average woman may not deliver. An average woman may want what an average man may not deliver. The result: the law of the average can never deliver the best result. Compromise: Negotiate, so that the average man will become what the average woman wants, vice versa. So why? Some say, women are emotional, and Men are Logical.

Mentorship on Relationship: the discussions

And so it was that the first 'mentoring class' was held. The topic was Relationship. We looked at the three kinds of relationship(friendship)that one can have and one should note. 1. Confidants : those who are sold out to you. The are not moved by your mistakes, they stick with you all the way. 2. Constituents :those who are sold out to your ideas/achievements only. As long as those ideas and achievements remain, they remain, but they are not sold out to you. When you make a mistake or error of judgment they take to their heels. 3. Comrades : those who fight your fight. As long as there is a fight to pick, they are with you, But once there no fight, you become boring and they leave. Two of the facilitators, Sola and Niran assisted in bringing both the spiritual and physical depth to the class. In particular I liked the covenant relationship between David and Jonathan(confidants); Moses and Aaron(constituent); Paul and Demas/ Moses and the children of Israel). I particularly lik

PRAYER CHITCHAT (6)

PRAYER CHIT CHAT (6) Jehoiachin: it was the mercy of God (2kings 25v27-30 A captured King, a subdued kingdom, and dejected people in slavery. Then suddenly the mercy of God descended on the King, and he began to eat with the royals. This month in the mighty name of Jesus, you will be released to partake in the inheritance of the people of God. Amen. Paul : it was the Grace of God (2 Cor 12 v 9) Maybe there is a challenge you are facing, maybe there is depression that has hit you, maybe there seems to be no strength in you. By the grace that was available to Paul, this month you shall be immersed in that grace and flourish in Jesus Name Amen. David: it was the favour of God (1Sam 16 v 11-13) Yes, in the past you have been ignored, deprived, denied and neglected. This month of July is your month. All such that have passed you by, will come back to pay you big. You will receive an accelerated blessing that will catapult you to your rightful place of honour in Jesus Name. Favour that has b
