MEN, LEARN TO SAY NO

As a man of godly value, you must learn how to say no to any lady who fights against your values and priorities. Your values are not just personal preferences; they are convictions rooted in God’s Word and tied to your purpose and destiny. When you compromise them for emotional comfort or fear of losing someone, you risk losing yourself and derailing your calling. Amos 3:3 asks, "Can two walk together, unless they are agreed?" If she resists or mocks what defines your life in Christ, it is not love—it is opposition disguised as affection.

Saying no is not about arrogance or pride; it is about guarding your God-given assignment. Proverbs 4:23 says, "Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it spring the issues of life." The woman who fights your values today will eventually fight your purpose tomorrow. A godly man must prioritize alignment over attraction, purpose over pleasure, and obedience to God over emotional attachment. If she constantly competes with your priorities, challenges your boundaries, or pulls you away from spiritual discipline, it’s a red flag you cannot ignore.

Repentance is not just for sin—it is also for misaligned decisions and misplaced affections. If you’ve entertained or pursued a relationship with someone who opposes your values, it’s time to repent and adjust. Second Corinthians 6:14 warns, "Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness?" This does not only apply to unbelievers but to anyone who rejects or disrespects the standards God has set for your life. Repentance repositions you to walk in clarity, strength, and authority over your heart.

Adjust by recommitting yourself to your values and surrounding yourself with accountability. A man who fears God does not apologize for his standards; he enforces them with love and wisdom. Remember Joseph’s firmness in Genesis 39:9 when he said, "How then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?" His "no" preserved his destiny. Men of value are protectors of vision and carriers of discipline. If you truly desire a woman who supports your purpose, you must first be courageous enough to say no to anyone who opposes it.

BECOME AN INTENTIONAL MAN.

You were born a male but becoming a man is factor of a deliberate effort you must make daily through the strength of Christ.  To become the kind of man God has ordained you to become, you must understand the specific plan God ORDAINED for you. This can be done when you pay attention to God's personal dealing with you via His Word. Your first responsibility is to dwell in the presence of God. Your second responsibility is to submit to the instructions of the Father. Your third responsibility is to discover your dream (your calling or purpose or life assignment). Your third responsibility is to be intentional and diligent in your dream and produce result/solution. After all the above is in place, that's when you can think of dating/marriage.  These are not my words but how God dealt with Adam in the book of Genesis 2, before He presented a Woman to Him. So, if you think being a man is about chasing women and money. You are abusing yourself.  According to God's standard, the...

EMBRACE YOUR AUTHORITY

Dear Men of Godly Value, In the tapestry of life, you stand as pillars, either as fathers and husbands or as those destined for these sacred roles. Your strength lies not just in muscle and might, but in the clarity of your direction, forged by purpose and calling in Christ. Each step you take, every decision you make, contributes to the legacy you're building. As you navigate the complexities of life, remember the profound impact of fighting the good fight of faith. It is in this struggle that you find not only strength but also the unwavering clarity of your calling. Your authority as a male figure isn't rooted in dominance but in your commitment to divine purpose. Leading your generation, guiding your wife or lover, and nurturing your family all hinge on the authenticity of your connection with your calling. Without this alignment, the compass of your leadership may falter. So, embrace the journey, seek that constant clarity, and let the light of your faith illuminate your p...

THE NATURE OF A MAN'S VISION

Brothers, it is important for you to understand that the strenhth of your life dwells in the strength of your vision. Vision is the mental picture of the problems God has wired you to solve in the future through your purpose, calling or capacity. There is a healthy vision and unhealthy vision. A healthy vision is the type that is caught through the inspiration of God's Word in your heart. Unhealthy vision is the type that is feeds humans ego and pride. As a man, it is important for you to have a defined vision that is cultivated from God's Word. If you don't have a vision, you won't be able to feature in the future. As a man, where are you heading to in life, and what's dictating your direction in life? Is it God's personal dealings with you or human logic? Catching a vision starts with your self discovery, through the knowledge of God's Word. What do you see in the next five to twelve years from now? Whose problem are you hungry to solve? Whose pain do you ...
