DON’T MARRY JUST ANY WOMAN, MARRY A WOMAN WITH COMMON SENSE.

1. Marry a woman who has sense enough to know that respect in marriage is mutual, not one-sided.

2. Marry a woman who has sense enough to know that you are not an ATM machine, and providing for the family is a shared responsibility when necessary.

3. Marry a woman who has sense enough to know that love is not just about what she can receive but also what she can give.

4. Marry a woman who has sense enough to know that being a man does not mean you don’t have emotions and that your struggles and mental health matter too.

5. Marry a woman who has sense enough to know that submission does not mean slavery, and partnership does not mean control.

6. Marry a woman who has sense enough to know that when you are tired or stressed, she should also be willing to support, whether by cooking, making things easier, or simply being considerate.

7. Marry a woman who has sense enough to know that intimacy is not a weapon for manipulation or punishment but an expression of love that should be mutual and consensual.

8. Marry a woman who has sense enough to know that disagreements are normal but should be handled with maturity, not silent treatment, disrespect, or emotional manipulation.

9. Marry a woman who has sense enough to know that your dreams and aspirations matter just as much as hers and that marriage should be a place of support, not competition.

10. Marry a woman who loves your soul, not just your status, money, or what she can gain. Marry a woman who enjoys talking to you, not just demanding from you.

May you not miss it in marriage

🎙 JAMES RODRÍGUEZ: "Once, when I was at Banfield, a fan, over 90 years old, came up to me during a practice. Banfield is a club that, when I was there, had been around for about 113 years, so you could say, respectfully, that this man had always been there. This elderly fan had seen wins, promotions, relegations, the highs, the lows, everything. And one day during practice, he said to me, 'Please, win the title; I’m about to p*ss away.' And sure enough, we won the championship in 2009. It was something big, and when I saw him again, he said, 'Thank you, kid!' and he hugged me."

VISION

INTRODUCTION

Vision is the revelation of God’s purpose and plan for a person, a people, a generation, or even an entire nation. It is not ambition. It is not wishful thinking. It is not mere goal-setting. Vision is divine direction birthed by divine encounter. According to Habakkuk 2:2-3 (NKJV): “Write the vision and make it plain on tablets, that he may run who reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, it will not tarry.” This reveals a key truth: NO TRUE VISION SPEAKS AT THE BEGINNING; IT ONLY SPEAKS AT THE END.

WHAT IS VISION?

Vision is the spiritual insight into God’s intended outcome for a life. It is not self-initiated but God-initiated. It is the mental and spiritual picture of your future that propels you with energy, courage, and resilience. Vision is what gives life direction, focus, and purpose. Without it, people live by reaction instead of intention. Proverbs 29:18 (KJV) says, “Where there is no vision, the people perish.”

True vision is born out of divine fellowship. It is not created in the boardroom but received in the secret place. Vision is not what you want to do for God, but what God wants to do through you. It is the blueprint of heaven deposited in your spirit, commanding your alignment and action.

KEY FACTS ABOUT VISION

1. TRUE VISION SPEAKS AT THE END, NOT AT THE BEGINNING

When vision first arrives, it often looks ordinary, confusing, or even unrealistic. It rarely comes with applause or clarity. In fact, it often invites criticism, mockery, and rejection. Just like Joseph’s dreams, vision is usually ridiculed before it is respected. In the beginning, it may appear dormant or unachievable. But in the end, it speaks loudly and clearly. Vision is validated by manifestation, not excitement.

2. VISION REQUIRES PROCESSING

Before vision speaks, it processes. The one who receives vision must be processed to match the weight of what God has revealed. Moses had the vision to deliver Israel, but spent 40 years in the wilderness being prepared. Paul encountered Jesus and then spent years in Arabia being equipped. God will never place a heavy vision on an unprocessed vessel. Between revelation and manifestation is preparation.

3. VISION THRIVES ON CHARACTER, NOT JUST CHARISMA

It is not enough to carry power gifts like prophecy, tongues, healing, or discernment. These are important but not sufficient for the fulfillment of vision. The gifts may attract attention, but it is the fruit of the Spirit that sustains destiny. According to Galatians 5:22-23, the fruits of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control are the attributes that preserve the vessel and stabilize the journey.

Many have received genuine visions from God but failed in character and collapsed in the process. Patience and long-suffering are especially critical because vision is a marathon, not a sprint. Without endurance, discouragement will abort destiny.

4. VISION REQUIRES TIME AND SEASONAL DISCERNMENT

Vision is time-sensitive. No matter how accurate a vision is, if you try to manifest it outside of divine timing, it will fail. The power of vision lies in alignment with God’s schedule. Ecclesiastes 3:1 says, “To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.” Misjudging seasons leads to premature exposure and failure.

Vision must be walked out step by step, stage by stage. Just as a baby must crawl before walking, vision must mature before manifestation. Each season comes with its test. There is a season of silence, of rejection, of formation, and of visibility. You must discern them all.

5. VISION ATTRACTS ADVERSITY

Every true vision will face opposition. In fact, opposition is one of the strongest validations that your vision is divine. Satan will not fight what is not a threat. Nehemiah’s vision to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem was opposed from every side. Jesus' mission was challenged from infancy to the cross. If your vision is truly of God, expect resistance—but also expect divine backing.

Opposition is not a sign of failure but a test of commitment. Many faint in the day of adversity because their strength is small. Visionaries must be battle-tested, able to withstand storms, delays, betrayals, and discouragement.

6. VISION REQUIRES DISCIPLINE AND FOCUS

Distraction is one of the deadliest enemies of vision. Many start strong but lose focus. Like Peter walking on water, they allow the winds of life to shift their eyes from the Master to the mess. Vision demands saying no to many good things to stay with the God-thing.

It also requires the discipline of time, resources, and relationships. Not every opportunity is a divine instruction. You must guard your heart, your circle, and your energy. Vision flourishes in environments of purity and clarity.

7. VISION REQUIRES COURAGE AND RESILIENCE

Vision will often demand that you walk alone. The early stages of vision may require loneliness, rejection, and misunderstanding. Noah built an ark with no rain in sight. Abraham walked to an unknown land. These men were sustained by vision, not applause.

If you cannot endure the loneliness of vision, you will never enjoy the reward of vision. You must believe what God told you even when no one else sees it. Hebrews 10:36 says, “You have need of patience, that, after you have done the will of God, you might receive the promise.”

8. VISION SEEKS TRANSFORMATION, NOT JUST ATTRACTION

A true vision will not just aim to make you popular or successful; it will aim to make others better, to improve society, and to advance God’s kingdom. Vision is bigger than self. It is redemptive. It serves others. It adds value. If your vision doesn’t stretch beyond you, it is ambition, not vision.

STAGES OF A VISION

1. REVELATION – God reveals His purpose.

2. INSTRUCTION – Specific steps are given.

3. SEPARATION – You are separated from what limits you.

4. PREPARATION – You are trained and refined.

5. OPPOSITION – You are tested and resisted.

6. MANIFESTATION – Vision begins to produce fruit.

7. MULTIPLICATION – Vision spreads and multiplies in others.

QUALITIES OF A VISIONARY

Sensitive to divine instructions

Emotionally stable and spiritually rooted

Bold in the face of opposition

Willing to endure delays and rejections

Able to discern seasons and transitions

Passionate about impact, not applause

Willing to submit to process and authority

Consistent in faith, regardless of results

CONCLUSION

Vision is not a one-time encounter—it is a lifelong journey. It is God's plan being worked out through your life in stages. Vision is fragile in the beginning but becomes powerful at the end. The end speaks, not the beginning. It is not how it looks now, but how it will be when God is done.

Don’t abort your vision because of delay. Don’t discard it because of opposition. Don’t disobey because of pressure. What God has shown you will come to pass—if you stay faithful.

Ecclesiastes 7:8 (NIV) says, “The end of a matter is better than its beginning, and patience is better than pride.” Vision is not about speed, but about staying in sync with God. Those who wait on the Lord will not be ashamed. The vision will speak—at the end.

Delta Governor’s Aide, Shimite Winifred, Reportedly Dies from Domestic Violence Incident

The Delta State community has been thrown into mourning following the tragic death of Chief (Mrs.) Shimite Winifred, the Special Adviser to the Governor on Trade and Export. She was a respected trade and economic expert, known for her dedication to economic development and women empowerment.

Initial reports suggest that Shimite died as a result of domestic violence. Though details are still emerging, it is alleged that she had a fatal confrontation with her husband, Pastor David Favour, who has reportedly been arrested in connection with her death.

Human rights activist and fellow government aide, Harrison Gwamnishu, confirmed the heartbreaking news in a Facebook post on Monday, April 21, 2025. Another activist, Comrade Victor Ojie, also known as Wong Box, echoed the confirmation, urging people to prioritize their lives over staying in abusive marriages: “Marriage is not by force. It’s better to lose your marriage than to lose your life.”

Shimite’s personal aide, Tameta Sunday, expressed grief and outrage in a tribute, accusing her husband of being responsible for cutting short her life and future plans.

The late Shimite Winifred held several notable positions throughout her career. She served as the Coordinator of the Delta State UNIDO Centre and was the focal person for the Federal Government’s Social Investment Programme in Delta. She also hosted African Pot, a television documentary that celebrated African cuisine, tourism, and culture.

Additionally, she was an influential member of several development and trade bodies, including the Steering Committee of USAID/NEXTT (Nigerian Expanded Trade and Transport) – Lakaji Trade Corridor, and the Board of Directors of FESECA – Foundation for Economic Change in Africa. She also contributed as an editor for Daily Trust and Leadership newspapers on travel and tourism.

Her death has sparked widespread calls for greater awareness around domestic violence and the urgent need for victims to seek safety, regardless of social or economic status.

His Wife Wet the Bed on Their Wedding Night—And Then This Happened - Episode 4

His Mother Moved In—and Tried to Take Over the Marriage…

After weathering therapy, emotional breakdowns, and late-night phone drama, Obiora and Christy were finally in sync again.

The house was filled with peace. Laughter. Warmth. Even the neighbors had started calling them “that sweet couple.” But in Nigeria, peace is often short-lived when family gets involved.

It all started with a phone call.

“Mama’s not feeling too strong,” Obiora told Christy one evening. “Doctor says she should be around people. I think she should come stay with us for a few weeks.”

Christy smiled and nodded. “Of course. She’s welcome anytime.”

She meant it too. She loved Mama Ngozi—or at least, the version she knew from wedding ceremonies and video calls. What she didn’t realize was…

Mama Ngozi was a full-force hurricane in a gele.

The moment she entered the house, the atmosphere shifted.

“Ehn, so this is how you people live?” she said, scanning the living room like a general inspecting troops. “This chair is not facing the TV properly. And this flower? Haba. Artificial? In my son’s house?”

Christy laughed it off. She thought it was cute. For the first two days.

But then Mama started waking her up at 5 a.m. to pray.

Then came the cooking.

“You young girls don’t know how to cook soup again. Christy, give me that pot. You’re stirring it like you’re mixing paint.”

Christy bit her tongue. She tried. Really tried.

Until the ultimate line dropped during one Sunday lunch.

Mama Ngozi turned to Obiora and said in Igbo—loud enough for Christy to hear:

“If you had married that Ada girl from the village, you would be eating fresh pounded yam every day, not this microwave love.”

Christy’s fork paused mid-air. Her chest tightened.

Obiora caught the moment. He saw the pain in Christy’s eyes. And for the first time since Mama arrived, he spoke up.

“Mama, please. Respect my wife.”

The room fell silent.

“She may not pound yam or wake up before the cock crows, but this woman held me down when I was broken. You’re my mother, and I love you—but this is our home. Not your battleground.”

Mama gasped like she’d been shot. “So you’re choosing a woman over me, Obiora?”

“I’m choosing peace. I’m choosing my marriage.”

Mama stood. Packed her things. And went to stay with Obiora’s older sister “for just a few days.” She didn’t speak to him for a week.

Christy, shaken but grateful, turned to her husband that night.

“Thank you,” she whispered.

Obiora pulled her close and smiled. “You don’t leave someone you pray for, remember?”

They laughed through tears.

When parents clash with your spouse—who do you stand with? Can there be balance without disrespect? Let’s talk in the comments.

S€X AND SUCCESS DON’T MIX – WHY UNDISCIPLINED MEN NEVER BECOME GREAT

Some men dream of success.
Some men work for success.
Some men destroy their success before it even starts.

And guess what? For many men, the biggest distraction is S€X.

A man who chases pleasure over purpose will always be left behind.
A man who controls his desires will always be ahead.

Success requires discipline.
Sexual indulgence destroys discipline.

If you can’t control your lust, you will never control your future.

BRUTAL THREAD:

1. POWERFUL MEN AVOID S€XUAL DISTRACTIONS, WEAK MEN CAN’T SAY NO

Every great man in history had one thing in common: They had discipline.

Alexander the Great conquered the world by 30—he didn’t waste time chasing women.
Elon Musk works 100 hours a week—he doesn’t waste time texting girls.

Muhammad Ali refused s€x before fights—he knew discipline was power.
But look at many men today:

Wasting hours daily on p0rn and m@sturbation.
Spending their last money just to impress women.

Crying over a girl instead of building their future.
No great man was ever a slave to lust.

2. S£X DRAINS YOUR ENERGY, FOCUS, AND DRIVE

Every time you release, you are losing more than just a few seconds of pleasure.
You are losing:
Testosterone (your natural energy for success).

Motivation (your hunger to win).
Mental clarity (your ability to stay focused).
That’s why after s£x, many men feel weak and lazy.

Now imagine:
Doing this every day.
Wasting hours texting, chasing, and begging women.
Spending money just to get a few minutes of pleasure.
That’s why broke men chase s£x, and rich men chase success.

3. EVERY MINUTE SPENT CHASING WOMEN IS A MINUTE LOST BUILDING YOUR FUTURE

Look at your daily habits.
How much time do you spend scrolling through women’s pictures?
How much time do you waste flirting and simping in DMs?

How much time do you spend watching p0rn and draining your strength?
Now imagine using that time to:
Learn a high-income skill.
Work on your business or career.

Go to the gym and improve your body.
If you focused on building, you wouldn’t need to chase—women would come to you.

4. HISTORY PROVES THAT S£XUAL WEAKNESS DESTROYS GREAT MEN

Ask yourself: What destroyed the strongest men in history?
Not war. Not enemies. Not poverty.
It was s£xual weakness.
Samson lost his power because of Delilah.

King Solomon was the wisest man, but women led him to destruction.

Tiger Woods lost millions in endorsements due to a s£x scandal.

Bill Clinton’s career was almost ruined by a woman.

A man without discipline is a man waiting for destruction.

5. WOMEN DON’T RESPECT MEN WHO CAN’T CONTROL THEMSELVES

You think a woman respects a man who chases her all day?
You think she values a man who is always available and begging?

No.
A woman respects men who have:
Purpose.
Self-control.
A bigger mission in life.

When you focus on your purpose, women will focus on you.

6. P0RN, M@STURBATION & CASUAL S£X ARE MAKING MEN WEAKER

The modern man is weak, lazy, and broke because he is addicted to cheap pleasure.

P0rn kills your brain.
M@sturbation destroys your energy.
Casual s£x makes you indisciplined.
That’s why so many men are:

Unmotivated.
Struggling financially.
Depressed and directionless.

If you want to be great, you must cut off s£xual distractions.

7. A MAN WHO CAN’T CONTROL HIS URGES CAN’T CONTROL HIS DESTINY

You say you want to be rich, powerful, and successful.
But you can’t even:
Go a week without s£x or p0rn.

Focus on work without being distracted by women.
Stop simping and chasing after every woman you see.
If you can’t master your own body, how can you master the world?

8. SUCCESSFUL MEN CONTROL S£X, BROKE MEN ARE CONTROLLED BY S€X

S€x is a tool.
The weak use it for pleasure.
The strong use it for power.

A successful man controls when and how he engages in s€x.
A broke man lets s€x control him.
That’s why the world is run by disciplined men, not by men who chase pleasure.

9. WOMEN COME AND GO, BUT SUCCESS STAYS

A man can have 100 women today, and they can all leave tomorrow.
But if you have money, power, and status, even more women will come.

That’s why powerful men never lack women.
And that’s why weak men are always chasing.

10. DISCIPLINE FIRST, PLEASURE LATER

There is nothing wrong with s£x.

But if you put pleasure before purpose, you will always struggle.
If you master self-control, you will always be ahead.

The choice is yours.

BOTTOM LINE:

If you want to be great, wealthy, and powerful, learn to control your lust.

Because in the end…

Men who control their desires, control their future.
Men who chase pleasure, lose everything.

GREAT WISDOM FOR VICTORIOUS LIVING.

1. The less you say, the more your words will matter.
Choose your words wisely. In a noisy world full of opinions, wisdom is often found in silence and thoughtful speech. Be known for words that uplift, not for words that merely fill the air.

2. Don't take everything personally.
People have their own battles and burdens. Most aren’t thinking about you as much as you think. Learn to let things go, and choose peace over unnecessary offense.

3. Focus on possibilities, not problems.
Your mindset shapes your destiny. A problem-focused life creates fear and limits, but a possibility-driven mind sees open doors in every difficulty. Be solution-oriented.

4. Your struggle is shaping you.
Pain is a part of growth. What you’re going through today might be the very thing that prepares you for what you prayed for tomorrow. Keep moving forward.

5. There’s a reason behind every connection.
Some people come to teach you, some to test you, and others to build you. And sometimes, you are sent into someone’s life for those same reasons. Learn to discern the difference.

6. Dare to try new things.
Staying in your comfort zone is easy, but greatness lives outside it. Explore, learn, and experience life beyond the familiar. Every risk carries a reward, even if it’s a lesson.

7. Emotional pain is real.
Being ignored by those you care about hurts. Acknowledge it, but don't let it control you. Build emotional resilience. Know your worth doesn't depend on anyone's attention.

8. Appreciate moments while you have them.
Today’s ordinary moments will become tomorrow’s treasured memories. Be fully present in your relationships, conversations, and experiences.

9. Gratitude shifts your focus.
When you start counting your blessings, your heart finds peace, and your eyes open to new opportunities. A grateful heart makes room for more.

10. Control your words, control your life.
Your future is shaped by what you speak. Speak life, hope, and purpose over yourself and others. Don’t let careless words ruin what discipline could have preserved.

11. Life reflects your thoughts.
Your mindset determines your outcome. If you see the world as hostile, you’ll live in fear. If you see it as filled with opportunities, you’ll find them.

12. It's not what happens to you, but how you respond.
Life is unpredictable. You can’t control everything, but you can control your attitude. A positive, faith-driven response will always position you for growth.

13. You wake up to yourself every day.
Be someone you respect when no one’s watching. Integrity and self-respect matter more than public approval.

14. Acts from the heart bring the deepest joy.
When you help, love, or serve with sincerity, the fulfillment you gain is priceless. Pursue what adds value to others.

15. Your circle shapes your destiny.
Surround yourself with people who inspire, challenge, and uplift you. If you walk with wise people, you’ll grow wiser. Choose relationships intentionally.

16. Knowing yourself unlocks your potential.
Self-awareness is a superpower. Understand your strengths, weaknesses, and passions. When you know who you are, you stop living for approval and start living with purpose.

Final Thought for the Youth:
You are living in a time of endless distractions and options. Wisdom is knowing what to hold on to, what to let go of, and what to reach for. Choose God, choose growth, and choose to live intentionally.

“Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.” — Proverbs 4:7

May God bless you, guide you, and cause you to thrive.
