Dealing with Strange Women

A long 🧵 🚨
#irorospeaks

Dear brothers, beware of “strange” women. They have brought down kings, destroyed glorious destinies, and reduce men to pieces of bread.

This in no way is intended to be a gender attack but an awakening of the spiritual warfare before you bro.

If you're sincere and take a close look at some destines that have been destroyed, it began with the introduction of strange women.

We all know how Solomon was blessed with wisdom. According to God's plan, he was to be double the king his father was. After David gave him sound warns, he sought God for wisdom.

He got wisdom alright but he wasn't wise enough to discern the strange women he allowed into his life. A lot of foolish men use the number of wives and concubines Solomon had to justify their promiscuity. How dumb can someone be?

“And Solomon loved the LORD, walking in the statutes of David his father: only he sacrificed and burnt incense in high places.” 1 King 3:3 KJV

Somehow, we all start at this point.

At this point, we need to be careful of our surroundings and the people we allow into our lives. Your destiny is precious and shouldn't be traded for mere sexual pleasure.

“But king Solomon loved many strange women, together with the daughter of Pharaoh, women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Zidonians, and Hittites;” 1 Kings 11:1 KJV

Loving people is one thing, but allowing them to control your life will lead you to destruction. It begins with one and before you know it, you're in an endless pit.

The LORD had clearly said unto the children of Israel, not go into those nations nor associate with them because He knew doing that would turn away your heart after their gods. But Oga Solo decided to clave unto these strange women in love.

“For it came to pass, when Solomon was old, that his wives turned away his heart after other gods: and his heart was not perfect with the LORD his God, as was the heart of David his father.” 1 Kings 11:4 KJV

The same lad who was on fire for the Lord a few chapters before has grown to love strange women that took his heart away from God. No wonder, Ecclesiastes, is a book of regret and admonishment for the young untrained mind.

“And Solomon did evil in the sight of the LORD, and went not fully after the LORD, as did David his father.” 1 Kings 11:6 KJV

One may be tempted to say, well, that's Solomon, I'm different. My question to you bro, are you different? Have you forgotten you are a man of like passion?

Remember the time, Balak hired Balaam to curse the people of Israel, all he could do was bless them. However, he gave a principle few people take seriously today.

“And the LORD was angry with Solomon because his heart was turned from the LORD God of Israel, which had appeared unto him twice,”1 Kings 11:9 KJV

The only way to receive a curse is to offend God yourself. Balaam couldn't curse the people but the people can bring a curse on themselves by their actions.

With that knowledge, Moab infiltrated the camp and introduced sexual relationships. In one day, twenty-four thousand people died of a plague that could have been avoided if they had not given room to sexual intercourse with strange women. (Numbers 25)

In a generation where we have normalized rubbish, dear bro, you can't afford to be blinded. The destiny of your generation is hidden within your seed. Be careful how you dispose of it.

A few minutes of ecstasy can cause a lifetime of agony. Check your life, in what way(s) are you giving room to “strange” women? Retrace your step.

Other guys may hail you for your sexual prowess. Oh, how unfortunate. If only they know the mess your life is about to become, they would weep for and with you.

Stop playing around with strange women. Remember the wise words, “Give not thy strength unto women, Nor thy ways to that which destroyeth kings.”

I like the way the TPT quotes this passage,

“So keep yourself sexually pure from the promiscuous, wayward woman. Don’t waste the strength of your anointing on those who ruin kings— you’ll live to regret it!” Proverbs 31:3 TPT

May your destiny not be truncated by giving room for strange women in your life. May God expose every strange woman in your life that is causing harm and give you the strength to break the connection with them.

Sexual covenant is the hardest to break but the blood of Jesus is sufficient for the pulling down, truncating, and nullifying of every covenant not ordained by God.

Be wise my dear brothers.

To my dear Sisters, this is not an attack on your gender. But like Superman and kryptonite; women are the weak link the enemy is using to destroy the destiny of kings.

I plead with you by the mercies of God that you present your body as a living sacrifice unto God and not a vessel of destruction. For anyone used by the devil to destroy lives, I decree redemption unto you.

May we not become the stumbling blocks that hinder our destinies from actualization.

Again, this is not a gender battle but a reminder to kings of the assignment ahead.

To your continuous growth.
