Konji Does Not Know Your Intentions! #Thread Image
In my 200l first semester, I left the hostel to live off campus because of the inconveniences in the hostel, if you know you know🚶🏾 I don't have strength to narrate hostel wahala but if you can relate, help me out🤣
Back to the gist, I started living off campus, it was more comfortable but you know both males and females live in the same building and some people that are married in school and single at home lived together. I think this is a disadvantage😏
One evening, I needed to charge the battery of my phone since we had no power for days. Caretaker was not even concern, it is frustrating for a student to stay without power for days,
but trust the rich students nah, they have generator and television so just make friends with one, be careful sha😶 I knew one of them sha, so I went to plug my phone in his room, then I met this finneee tall guy, he also came to plug his phone.
He was just the way I always wanted! Hei, but I kept cool sha, I am a fine girl too. Lol. Before I could say Jack Robinson he approached me introducing himself, we attended the same church. Don't say Aww, don't try it but thats what I said o
"Maybe we are meant to be" I already concluded, then we exchanged contacts, started attending church service together since he was my neighbor too, just few blocks away, I just couldn't understand how I felt anytime we met.
He started visiting often, I decided to be a good friend so I do, same but then his moves changed, always wanting to hug and peck me on my forehead but his intentions were pure as he was only being a friend and a brother but it was planting a seed.
I found out hewas in a relationship so I knew nothing would work between us yet he kept coming close, visiting often, attending church service together, it ignited a spark in me until one faithful day when I needed a shoulder to cry on.
I just didn't think of any other person to call, I really wanted to satisfy the urge because of the close unhealthy relationship we kept, but I already decided to keep my virginity so it was a struggle! I called to tell him how bad I felt.
I had an issue in my results and I felt so devasted, when he came around, I felt loose, crying and just then he held me almost planting his lips on mine, what is happening, is this not my brother in church? Konji does not know your intentions!
I knew how to took God's grace to resist the situation at hand, if it was not God, we could have fornicated, the lust in my heart was enough to say we did. But we all wanted a good relationship, no intentions of sex.
Konji doesn't know he is your brother/sister in Christ, this is why the bible asked us to FLEEE! Flee and forget your shoes, see we know how this things starts, the close relationships, ehn we are just friends, besties😏
Set boundaries, always visiting a brother or sister will fuel your sexual desires and increase your urge for sex. Please set boundaries, stop lying close to each other, stop the hugging tight, just a peck something! Stop it!
Define every relationship, define ittt, what I the closeness for? Why are you always together? What for? Please start asking! Start asking now, are you just a friend or what does he/she wants.
If you want to stand for PURITY, then you have to fight for it, work for it, pray for it, live for it and refuse to negotiate it! Be sensitive enough to know when your feelings have changed, your desires and urges and start casting it out!

We Stand For Purity🔥
Konji means sexual urge.

This morning, I woke up to God’s word reminding me of the importance of process, waiting, building and staying to learn what He is teaching me as my teacher.

We may come that point where we almost feel like the Lord is not there because what we have asked for is not forthcoming, you may even feel discouraged but it is settled that the Lord never forsakes His own, not even in the fire!
So what about you? Do you eventually see God as wicked or unjust because He is not answering all your prayers? Are you that Christian who quickly becomes faithless when you are not seeing results?

Job said “Even if you slay me”
Esther said “If I perish I perish”
The three Hebrews boys didn’t mind if God saves them or not and Daniel wasn’t scared of dying in the lion’s den.
How comes we are only for God when it’s favorable? What happens to the process of waiting and learning? Just like David and Joseph, God may take you through a process before the palace.

Just like Abraham, you may have to wait for years to enter into God’s promises for you. We must learn to love God beyond what He can do for us, follow Him because He is God not just for earthly desires!

If you are in a godly relationship, tell us something you are grateful for in your partner or relationship. Let's share godly relationship goals.

Mine: We read books together, he basically encourages me because that guy reads😩

Also, I have learnt how to fast, like fast!
...and yes, I am better than I was in all aspects of my life.

There's more! We get our intimacy when we spend time talking about Jesus. Its beautiful😭
No sex! No smooching! No kissing! Just God's presence, two people growing into God's purpose for them.

If you are serving God because you want to get something from Him, one day you will wake up angry because you may not get all you desire but when you just love and trust Him, you may not get all you desire but you will get all that's best for you.
We serve God because its our life, we owe everything to Him. So just like the three Hebrew boys, Esther, Daniel, Apostle Paul etc.

It is not about how much God can give to them but how committed and sold out they are to God.
God wants us to come to that place where our confession becomes "If I perish I perish! I cannot choose my life or my desires above you Lord. I love you with everything".

This is the kind of growth God is calling us into🔥

Dear Christian,
The flesh is self exalting, it is self demanding! When the spirit says PRAY, the flesh will say you need to rest. When the spirit says BE CALM, the flesh will give you a hundred reasons not to! If you want to serve God, you must die to FLESH🙇
The flesh always wants to show how much it has achieved for God with small pride.
It wants to be able to show emotions, do whatever it wants without self control.
It doesn't even want corrections from God or the scriptures.
The flesh doesn't want to stay without food so if you want to satisfy it's desires, you cannot fast. You can stay for a whole busy day without eating but come and fast na, you will start shaking😂

I was having a conversation with one Unku who was showing some Interest me and I noticed how he was trying to mention God into everything he was saying, yes he wanted me to see how he knows God but I was not fast to conclude o!
I gave it time, I listened to all he had to say and I could see that he was trying to use the fact I was a child of God to make me feel comfortable but it wasn't so long before I could hear him condemn the standard of purity we are keep as believers!
Oh really, the same brother who sounded so God-loving could say there's no need to waiting until marriage if your family already knows about the relationship! God help us.

I was at a wedding yesterday, but I wasn't fast to say the God When anthem, not because it wasn't a beautiful wedding or because I don't anticipate marriage but because I know there is so much requirements for a GOD KIND OF MARRIAGE.
We all want to be loved by somebody's son or daughter, we want a beautiful house, we want to be loved and receive beautiful gifts from our partners. I want that too but wait fes, is that all?
What God has planned for us is way more than gifts, houses, flowers or even vacations. What God has planned is a home that will glorify Him.
