**HOW TO LOVE AND HELP YOUR HUSBAND 👱‍♀💃** *"An excellent wife is the crown of her husband." - Proverbs 12:4* 1. **Respect Him Unconditionally.** Listen to him and ask for his opinion. Value his advice and follow his guidance. Men have a deep need for respect, so show it in your tone of voice during conversations and how you approach him, especially when you disagree. Ensure your children respect their dad in the same way. Prioritize him over the children and teach them to do the same. Let him know his thoughts matter and that you truly value his input. 2. **Accept Your Husband as Your Spiritual Leader.** Men are created to lead the family, which doesn’t imply that women are any less significant. It means God has equipped men with certain skills to effectively guide their families. As stated in Ephesians 5:22-23, “the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the church.” Accepting your husband as your spiritual leader involves recognizing and supporting his role in guiding the family’s spiritual life. Allow him to lead in prayer, Bible study, and spiritual decisions while also contributing your own insights to enrich your family’s faith journey. If he’s struggling in this area, offer your support and encourage him to seek guidance from trusted sources or professional help if necessary. 3. **Listen More.** Engage and listen when he speaks. While you might want to make him smile, your willingness to listen can be even more impactful. 4. **Be the Best Version of Yourself.** Show love by striving to become the best person you can be. Your happiness will positively affect your husband’s well-being too. 5. **Contribute Financially.** Marriage is teamwork; be willing to share your financial resources to help pay the bills. Avoid being stingy with your money. 6. **Be Caring and Compassionate.** Support him when he has a bad day or celebrate with him on a good day. Show your love and care without waiting for him to get sick or need assistance. Simple gestures like a cup of coffee in bed or a cuddle can mean a lot. 7. **Support His Dreams.** Be flexible and willing to sacrifice for your husband’s goals. A supportive wife allows a man to push his limits and achieve success. Stand by him as a team, working together toward daily routines and long-term ambitions. 8. **Love Him Unconditionally.** Be there for him through good times and bad, demonstrating unwavering love. 9. **Give Small Gifts.** Make your husband feel special every day, not just on special occasions. 10. **Maintain His Wardrobe.** Wash and iron his clothes, including underwear. 11. **Celebrate His Achievements.** Recognize and celebrate his successes, no matter how small. 12. **Discipline Your Children Together.** Avoid saying, “I will report you to your daddy.” Work as a team in parenting. 13. **Spend Money Wisely.** Utilize any money he gives you judiciously, showing you value his contributions. 14. **Submit to Him** as your lord and king. 15. **Pray for Him Regularly.** Let him know you’re praying for his well-being, demonstrating care for his spiritual life. 16. **Comfort and Console Him.** Be there to provide strength and support whenever he needs it. 17. **Be Intimate.** Prioritize your physical relationship and do not neglect your s€xual intimacy. 18. **Keep a Clean Home.** Maintain a tidy and organized living space. 19. **Prepare Timely Meals.** Ensure he is fed and nourished regularly. 20. **Show Appreciation.** Praise him and express gratitude. Encouragement can motivate him to go the extra mile for you. 21. **Make Him Laugh.** Lighten the mood by making him laugh daily. **COUPLES WHO HELP EACH OTHER CAN NEVER BE HELPLESS** You will not fail in marriage, in Jesus' name. Please share this message with your loved ones. 🙏

*What to Have Before You Become a Wife📌 👇* Dear Single Lady, i know you're Preparing for a beautiful future, and marriage is one of those beautiful journey of life you desire. But before stepping into it, it's important you prepare— not just with wedding plans, but with the right mindset, habits, and heart. Wedding is not marriage, and marriage is not a day experience. So before you become a wife; Have 1. A Strong Relationship with Yourself Know who you are. Understand your values, your dreams, and your emotions. Self-love and self-respect lay the foundation for a healthy relationship with someone else. Don't expect a man to fully love and respect you when you don't love and respect yourself or you're still confused about yourself. Know what you can do and what you can't do. The flaws you can manage in a man, and the toxic habits you can't endure. 2. Emotional Maturity Can you handle disagreements without losing control? Can you forgive, communicate, and listen to your man with love? In as much as you're willing to be a submissive wife, understand that You won't always agree with your husband. There will be days of misunderstanding. There will days where you don't feel like talking to him. And there will be days when you'll look at him with a bombastic side eyes and feel like shouting ontop of your voice— at him. So start learning Conflict Resolution Skills. Learn Good Communication Skills too. Marriage requires honest, gentle, and respectful conversations. So you must Learn how to address a man. Start Practicing how to express yourself clearly and calmly, even when things get tough. Develop good manner of approach and speech. Learn how to resolve issues with calmness and respect instead of anger or silence. A peaceful home is not a home without problems, it's a home where problems are handled with wisdom. 3. Financial Wisdom You don't need to be rich, but it's wise you learn how to manage money, budget, save, and spend wisely. Marriage involves sharing responsibilities, and finances are a big part of that. You may not have money in your pocket now, but have a brain that can generate millions. Don't be empty physically and mentally. Imagine you meet a man who's ready to help you grow, what do you have that he can use to establish you❓ Don't wait for a man to come into your life and start building your from scratch. Have something— physically or mentally, or both. Don't sit down lazying around— believing you'll get any man or thing you want because you're beautiful. Your power doesn't lie in your beauty/body— it lies in your BRAIN. Feed your brain! • 4. A Clear Vision and Purpose for Life What kind of life do you want to build? What are your priorities— faith, career, children, purpose? Do you want to raise worldly children or Godly children? Do you want a marriage centered in Christ or Crisis? Do you want to be a career wife or a house wife? It's very important to know where you're headed in life so you can choose a man who shares and supports that vision. Don't be the type of lady who just want to want to birth kid, eat and sleep. If all you're concerned about as a lady is trending things and fashion, you may get frustrated when you enter marriage and your expectations are not been met. Luxuries are good, but have a vision and a purpose that can birth impacts. Impacts generates money, and money brings comfort. 5. Sound Marital Knowledge You want to get married without knowing anything about marriage? In as much as there will be some shocking discoveries you'll experience inside marriage, you still have to equip yourself well to some extent. You don't prepare for battle in the battlefield, you prepare ahead of it. You want marriage. You want to answer a 'wife' . You want to be a mother. But you haven't read upto 5 positive books that teaches about healthy marriage, becoming a wife of value, and a fulfilled mother. You don't even study God's standard for marriage— your bible. All you do is to go on dates, then come back home and watch movies. Keep playing 🙄 Even when you prepare yourself, the practical aspect of marriage will still give you some shocks. Now imagine what will happen if you don't equip yourself at all ? Show me a man who is going for war without arming himself, and I'll show you a man who has made up his mind to be k!!led even before he gets to the warfront. Marriage is not a play. Get the right Knowledge as much as you can. 6. Healing from Past Wounds Unresolved pain from your past relationships or childhood can cause problems later in your marriage. Please Take time to heal, forgive, and let go of your past relationship hurts before planning of getting married. Don't carry what your Ex did to you into marriage and start pun!shing your husband with it. You may de$tɍoy your marriage. Find peace first. A peaceful heart makes room for love to grow. 7. The Right Community Surround yourself with wise women— married, single, and older— who can guide you, pray with you, and give sound advice. You'll need them before and after marriage. Stay away from feminist if you truly want to enjoy your marriage. Anyone who advises you to equal yourself to your man doesn't mean well for you. Avoid them. 8. A Lifestyle of Responsibility Can you take care of your home, your health, your work, and your spiritual life without being pushed? Marriage doesn't magically make people responsible, you carry your habits into it and it amplifies them. Start building them now— the right habits. Start learning how to cook, keep the home neat, take care of kids. 9. Hobbies and Passions In preparing to become a wife, You have to learn to trust God's timing. But while you wait, grow. Don't lose yourself because you're waiting for marriage. Explore your talents, pursue passions, build a meaningful life outside of your relationship. Work on yourself, build your dreams, and enjoy your season. When you're a well-rounded woman, you'll bring joy, depth, and beauty into your home. 10. A Prayer Life Marriage will challenge your emotions, your faith, your patience, and your strength— and that's why you must start now to build your relationship with God. A praying woman builds her home in wisdom. So Start now! Make prayer your anchor, not your backup plan. A kneeling woman is a winning woman! Dear unmarried lady, Marriage won't fix your life, it will add to it. So build a life you love— then share it with a man who truly values it. Building yourself means you don't expect your man to complete you— you're already whole. So as a single lady, you must understand that becoming a wife is not just about finding the right man, it's about becoming the right woman. A wife is not just a title, it's a calling, and preparation is key. Don't just sit and be waiting to be chosen— Prepare yourself too to choose wisely, to love deeply, and to thrive in your marriage, not just survive in it. Marriage is meant to be ENJOYED ✅, not to be ENDURED ❌. You are worth the wait. PEACE!🕊️

Squeeze of Life🤣🤣 It was supposed to be a peaceful ride to Oshodi. But for Chike, today was judgment day. He entered the bus and saw only one empty spot sandwiched between Mama Titi and Aunty Bola, two market women known in Lagos for selling tomatoes and taking up extra spiritual space. As soon as he sat, it felt like the universe closed in on him🤣🤣. His ribs were playing musical chairs, and his lungs submitted their resignation letter.🤣🤣 Mama Titi on the left kept adjusting, pushing him deeper into Aunty Bola’s mountain of flesh.🤣🤣 Walahi driver, I won’t pay you oh.. Chike suddenly shouted, his voice cracking like chin-chin under pressure. See what is happening to me🤣🤣 The whole bus turned to look. The driver nearly swerved.🫩 Mama Titi replied, You dey cry? You never jam Mama Nnukwu. She go use one hip dislocate your destiny🤣🤣🤣 Aunty Bola added, Oya shift small na, or you want to disappear into my armpit🤣🤣 Chike looked at the driver with teary eyes. Oga please stop. I want to come down and be going to heaven directly🤣🤣🤣🤣 Never underestimate small seats and big blessings.🤣🤣🤣

*The Myth About Soulmates!* Many people erroneously believe that there's ONE person out there who is their soulmate, someone God had predestined for them to marry, and until they find that ONE person, they will never enjoy true love. Some people call it "missing rib," someone that was divinely created for them alone. But that is not true! There is no ONE person in the entire universe that is your soulmate or missing rib. You can choose your soulmate. You can choose who to fall in love with, and eventually marry. If I didn't marry my wife, there are more than 1 million women I could still marry, and the marriage will work, and if she didn't marry me, there are many other men she could have married. But I chose her, and she chose me. And we both became each other's soulmates! Yes, God helped us to make the choice, because of his plan and purpose for our lives. If you believe there's ONE person in the world that is your soulmate, what if that person dies, even before you meet him/her? Will you remain single for life? Some people are still single today, because they are waiting for a magical soulmate, and they have missed an opportunity with many amazing men and women. If you're a believer, the instruction is to never marry an unbeliever or a believer who isn't focused on serving God and pursuing the plan and purpose of God. Sister Adetola, brother Timothy is not your soulmate, if he doesn't marry you, another brother can marry you. Stop being frustrated because someone you love isn't interested in marrying you. Open up your heart, and you will find love in places you least expect. And when you meet that man or woman that truly deserves you, you can make them your SOULMATE! I hope this helps! #truelove #soulmate #relationship #happiness #Marriage Tips

Long-distance relationships are emotional traps for untrained men. You sit there texting, calling, promising her forever, While she’s out there collecting attention like it’s oxygen. You think she’s yours because of “love”? No, bro. She’s loyal to her options. Her environment. Her emotions. And when the right guy shows up and touches the right nerve, Your long-distance promise means nothing. Let me burn the fantasy: You’re in bed dreaming of her. Some other man is in her bed, giving her what you only type. You send good morning texts. He sends dopamine with eye contact and masculine presence. You plan FaceTime dates. He plans real ones, with his hands around her waist, not emojis on a screen. Women don’t stay loyal to absence. They stay loyal to presence, pressure, and power. And a man who lets distance test loyalty Is a man who's gambling with a loaded gun pointed at his pride. You think you're “building trust”? You’re just feeding her attention-starved ego while she's busy entertaining "just friends." You think love will carry the weight? No. Only masculine presence, real-world imprinting, and boundaries keep her in check. At Girls Approach, we teach men how to dominate the room, not text their worth across borders. If you can’t show up in person, you better show up in power. Otherwise? You're just emotionally funding her connection with the next bold guy in her city. Let the truth be told: A woman’s loyalty is as stable as the attention she receives. Distance doesn’t protect your bond. It exposes the illusion of one. If you disappoint, you must appear before the council of brotherhood, and explain why you've decided to disgrace everybody. No whining. This is Girls Approach energy. This is dominance without desperation. If you’re not in her world physically, someone else will be. Step up or step aside. This is warfare. Get hard or go home. #girlsapproach ➥𝐼𝑓 𝑖𝑡'𝑠 ℎ𝑒𝑙𝑝𝑓𝑢𝑙 𝑝𝑙𝑒𝑎𝑠𝑒 𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑐𝑡 & 𝑠ℎ𝑎𝑟𝑒⇅

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. @highlight @topfans

When we first met, he told me he was living with his parents. His father's house had many rooms, so he didn’t need to rent. The girl I was five years ago would have said, "Thank you, but I don’t date a man who lives with his parents." But there’s one thing that comes with maturing or experiencing different shades of life: it makes you understand that the same situations can bring different stories. I said yes, hoping our story wouldn’t be like that failed relationship story I read on Silent Beads. He would come to my place bearing gifts and smiles. He would help around while telling me stories of how it feels to live with your parents at thirty. "They don’t respect your age ooo. They can send you to go and buy charcoal when you’ve just returned from buying pepper from the street." After three months of dating, I realized he’d met my friends and my mom, but I hadn’t met anyone from his side. He told me he didn’t have friends. I said fine. He told me he would take me home to say hi to his parents one day. I said okay. It didn’t sit well with me that I would date a man for three months and not know where he lived, so I started pressing him to take me home. He gave me excuses. He said his father hates to see him with a woman and that once he takes me home, his father might think he’s going to sleep with me and won’t respect me or our relationship again. I said, "That’s fine, but I want to see the brick-and-mortar you live in. I want to know the area, the color of your building, the color of the gate. Do you have a dog in there? I want to hear how it barks." Six months later, he decided to take me home. Not only to see the color of the building but to visit his room and spend the night. The Uber stopped right in front of his gate. He said, "You see, it’s a brown gate and a yellow house. Easy to see." He walked in as I followed. It was around 8 p.m. Immediately, we stepped into the compound, his demeanor changed. He murmured something loud enough for me to hear: "Why’s the light in my parents’ room on?" He asked me to wait while he went in to check. I was standing in the compound when a man walked up to me from behind the house. He asked who I was looking for. You look at his face and the way he walks, and you realize it’s the father. I answered respectfully, "I came with Kojo, but he’s inside." He changed from nonchalant to concerned. He asked, "Kojo is in the house?" I nodded. He asked again, "Who are you? Who are you to him?" I answered while bowing, "He’s my friend." I said friend, but he got angry. Then he shouted Kojo’s name. When Kojo was coming out, his mom followed, and then a boy, and later a girl. His face didn’t look cheerful—like he had encountered a ghost and wanted to run. His father said, "So you thought we hadn’t returned, so you were sneaking in your new victim, right?" His mom asked who I was, and I said a friend. She asked, "A friend, and you’re being sneaked in at this time? What kind of friends are you?" I stood there watching while those two kids kept calling him Daddy and asking him a series of questions, like children always do. I was getting the message. All was not well. His mom said, "These two kids are his. I hope you know that already?" His dad added, "He had them with two different women. I hope you also know that? He impregnated the women in the same month, so these two kids were born days apart. Do you know all that?" I started smiling shyly. His dad wasn’t having it. His mom kept smiling. She said, "If you know all that and you’re still happy, then welcome home." I took two steps backward. I looked at Kojo’s face, but he avoided my gaze. I thanked his parents and told them I didn’t know all that because he hadn’t told me. I mentioned his name and said goodbye to him. I walked out of the gate with a heavy head and a heart that was falling apart. When I got home, I texted him, "Thank you for letting me know your house. At least, I now know which house to avoid the next time I’m in the vicinity." He said sorry. He said he was going to tell me the truth but slowly. He said he didn’t want to lose me and that he was serious when he said he was going to marry me. My response was, "Do me a favor. Please lose my number and miss your way to my place. I can’t be your third baby mama." End.
