The Chemistry of love



Love is a divine chemistry that can not be analyzed with the apparatus of lust


Depending on the nature of relationship, you have to really define your intention from the very onset. Would you sacrifice your values in the name of ‘love’ and be at the receiving end? Or would you rather be subject to the whims and caprices of ravenous wolves in sheep’s clothing that go about seeking whom to devour?  Be wise! Be cautious! Be responsible!


Yes, be responsible for your actions when it comes to relationship. This is because there are misconceptions that often lead astray. What many refer to as love is nothing but lust that is predicated upon mere feelings to satisfy inordinate affection, rather than a ‘soulish’ touch between two that are deeply connected in the spirit of true affection and care.


Such was the situation of a friend who was tricked by his own flesh and lustfully dabbled into the domain of marriage. But no sooner had he started than he found out he was his own devil; the marriage turned against him and was left with no option than divorce. Those who equate true love to sexual tendency towards the opposite sex should better have a rethink.


In fact, any relationship in which a partner prioritizes sex over every other issue, is questionable. For the unmarried, abstinence is more honourable than having hot pants that strips off at the touch of every tom, dick and harry. For the married, true, undiluted and symbiotic love is the key to a lasting relationship that can stand the test of time. 

A partner whose priority bothers on sex most times would most likely abandon you on the sick bed, when you’re unable to give him sex. And one who lusts after you for the love of your money would disown you in trying times. Beware!
 
This is why I maintain that true love is divine; it cannot be analyzed with the apparatus of lust. Unlike lust, true love is caring, considerate, kind, truthful and honest; it is forgiving, patient and sacrificial. It is not selfish, nor defrauding nor egoistic. The cord of affection between the two in love constraints them to seek the good of each other.  Any relationship that is devoid of these traits cannot be synonymous with true love.

Prophetic Prayer For the Month of September (Starting, Sunday 1st of September) 2024.

  Theme: THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD. Text: Psalm 23:1-6 EXHORTATION  Praise ye the LORD! Alleluiyah! We have come a long way this year and God has been there for us every every step of the way. His divine guidance, protection and security have been our confidence. His enduring love and mercy cannot be overemphasized. For the victories, testimonies and ever present help, we return all the glory to Him. May His name alone be glorified forever more (Amen). Last month, the LORD directed that we should pray and arise unto NEW GLORY, Jesus Christ, being the hope of New Glory (Isaiah 60:1-22, Colossians 1:27). It was a prophetic declaration about what God has prepared for His children, those that diligently seek Him. Permit me to stress here that every monthly theme God has ever given us is a progressive and evergreen covenant. It is the mind of God for us every month, which is not limited to the particular month in question. Rather, it is "rolled over" to subsequent months and spans t...

True Love is not only hard to find, but a harder task to manage. It is divine. Its universality and potency make it an indispensable instrument of peace. Where true love exists, the weapons of hate are consumed. Though peace is not the absence of war, but the application of the instrumentality of LOVE to incapacitate the agents of war, which commandant is HATE. Therefore, let us love, not just in the letter, but in the power thereof: for there is power in true love, far beyond human imagination, boundless and eternal. True love is a cord of infinite affection, existing from eternity past to the present, onto eternity to come. It is the force that binds the centre of humanity in the bond of peace. True love is as aged as The Creator Himself, for GOD is LOVE and LOVE is GOD. Therefore, He that does not love is a hater of theu ALMIGHTY GOD, for true love is divine.  True love cannot be purchased with money, but thrives on the platter of care, and care materializes on the whee...
