THE JESUS SLAY QUEENS 2
Episode 92
© Ayo Omolayo
I am Stephen Bolu by name. I am 19 years old and I grew up here in Lagos. I got born again at the age of 10 and I served God faithfully. I go out for evangelism with the church team and personally won 12 souls for God.
I am so proud of all my achievements for God at such a young age. Sometimes, I preach in my church and people see me as a pastor. God has been doing a lot through my life and I believe he has more in store for me.
To go straight to the point, I don't have issues with boyfriend and girlfriend. In fact I don't want to have anything to do with a girl, till I am ready for marriage or relationship. But I've noticed something about myself. I discovered that girls are always flocking around me. I don't know why but it seems they are attracted to me. Sometimes, my friends tease me that I have many wives.
The question is this, because I have noticed that whenever I hug a lady, I'm not myself. Hugging is a normal thing but it's not normal to me. Sometimes I feel embarrassed because my body reacts negatively. Not just hugging alone. If a girl touches my shoulder, the man inside of me reacts.
I'm tired of this life. Any little contact with the opposite gender, my body reacts. I'm fed up with this kind of life. I want something different. I want things to change for the better.
What can I do to escape this? Sometimes I envy ladies a lot. If I were to be a girl I won't have girls chasing me everywhere. And because I'm a boy and girls are always after me."
My spirit already told me to allow Romeo answer this question. So immediately Stephen was done, I gave him the go-ahead signal.
"Stephen let me tell you the truth. Anointing is attractive. Once you are anointed, forget about it. You will always attract people. And the highest number of people that will be attracted to you, will be from the opposite gender.
Let's look at what the Bible has to say about it in Song of Solomon 1:3. Can you read it for me?" He asked and handed the Bible over to him.
"Because of the savour of thy good ointments thy name is as ointment poured forth, therefore do the virgins love thee."
"Do you understand what it means?"
"Yes sir!"
"That anointing God has placed upon you, is attractive. And just like that scripture said, the virgins love you because of it. The word Virgin there is used to represent ladies. Now if you were to be a lady, you would be having so many proposals. You would have so many guys telling you how much they love you. That's how it works.
If you doubt me, you can ask my fiance over here. You can ask her how many proposals she received on a monthly basis? You can ask her how many proposals she turned down. Boys are always pursuing her, because anointing makes you attractive.
So your gender does not determine the end of it all. What will preserve you in this kind of life is principles. You don't need to change your gender, because whether you're male or female, people will still be attracted.
Now what I need to teach you about the principles of God is your personal weakness. The principles of God are in two dimensions. Number one, is the general principles of God and number two is the personal principles of God.
General principles of God are those principles that God expects from every believer. These are practices that God wants every Christian to observe. Every Christian can link these principles to God's word and apply them to their lives. The general principles of God art practices that you find in all godly assemblies and denominations. Also you can find them in the personal lives of every person who calls himself a child of God.
But the personal principles of God is different. These are principles that are sometimes hard to find in scriptures but instructed by God. I'm not saying God will tell you to do something that is not in the Bible, but God can give you instructions that are peculiar to handling your weaknesses.
To some people God can tell them to stop doing this and stop doing that. Some people have rules that guide their lives given by the Holy Ghost. These personal principles are not for everyone. They are peculiar to the particular person god gave them to.
For example, God can tell a lady to fast three times in a week. To another person, he might say fast once a week. There will be serious problem when the lady fasting three times a week, is trying to insist that the one fasting once a week, must switch to three times.
To some, God instructed them to go out for morning cry. When that lady start seeing everybody not doing morning cry as unserious believers, there's serious problem.
These personal principles are made to help the person stand firm in Christ. God knows your weak points and the right cure for it.
For someone struggling with masturbation God can give you a certain principle that will change that state of weakness. I know of a guy who struggle with masturbation and in order to break Free god gave him an instruction to eat only twice daily. Sounds difficult right?"
"Yeah!" He said smiling.
"The guy started practicing it the strength of that iniquity died naturally. I know of another guy whom god instructed to always pray at midnight. I know of a person who was struggling with telling lies and God told the person to spend three hours in prayers daily.
Some of these principles are extremely difficult but, they are the cure to those weaknesses. The setting proves that God will give you and your infirmities will die instantaneously.
This is one of the things that has helped men in life. It's called the secret of the Lord. Samson was a weak man just like every other person. But there was an instruction he received from God and that powered him to become extra ordinary. This is what we call consecration.
Whenever you are struggling with weaknesses like this find the consecration, that will destroy it."
"Sir how do I find the principal that will destroy this particular weakness?"
"One of the ways you will find it is by asking God to reveal it to you. But if you have not gotten to that stage where God can reveal things to you in your relationship with him, then copy from those who had passed through that challenge. Observe them and learn the principles that they practiced which helped them out of that seems trouble you are going through.
If you struggled with masturbation and you happen to meet someone who overcame it. Apply the principles he applied and get the results he got. If you were a glutton and you happen to meet someone who overcame gluttony, that is the sin of overeating. Learn from their experiences and apply the principles they did.
Like in my situation, I had this kind of experience you're explaining. Your background can also be part of the reason why . If you're the type that grow up among boys as a lady you will find boys more appealing to you than your fellow females. And if you're the type who grew up among girls as a boy you would love the company of girls more than boys.
So one thing I did, was to indulge in the principle of no hugging of the opposite gender. I made it a rule to myself never to hug a lady. I could give them a handshake, but not a hug. This is one of the principles I kept and it helped me to overcome this weakness. To the point that even if I hugged a lady, all those feelings could not come anymore.
But I still maintain the principle of not hugging, because you don't know what the enemy is planning."
"Thank you sir! I really appreciate what you have taught me today. I guess that is what I will apply to my life. I'm so glad I learnt something powerful."
"You're welcome!"
That was the last guy that met us. The counselling session ended and the teenagers return to their various homes. Romeo and I were arranging mummy's library, when it dawned on me that we're both alone.
I turned to Romeo and walked up to him, spreading my arms to hug him. He moved back as if I was putting on a dirty garment.
"Juliet what are you doing?"
"Looking for someone's trouble!" I replied grinning.
"I don't understand! This is one of the rules of our relationship and you are breaking it with a smile."
"You said you used to be very weak whenever a lady hugs you. So, I want you to be very weak right now!" I said and made to rush at him.
"Jesus! Are you Delilah? You know the secret of my strength and you want to use it to shave my head?" He said laughing as he ran around the table at the middle of the room.
"No! I'm Julilah!" I replied as I chased him.
"My God! When they say women are dangerous I was thinking it was a joke. Just look at the woman God gave me trying to pull me down!" He said admist laughter.
"We are small, but mighty!" I replied.
He ran out of the room and I ran after him.
Mommy was standing with some of her daughters and sons, gisting, when Romeo ran out of the room screaming.
"Mummy! Mummy! Look at your daughter!" He said and stood behind her.
I was face to face with mummy. Fear gripped me.
"What did she do?"
"I don't know what I did to her but she's chasing me, claiming I must give her a hug."
"Then give my daughter a hug!"
Everyone around cheered and laughed out loud. I was shocked by mommy's response and a smile lit up my face. I had the backing of the higher powers. I will deal with this guy today.
"Haaaaaaaa! Mummy! You know I'm saving it till our wedding day."
"Then look for a way to beg her to agree with you. If you cannot appease your queen, then do as she wants."
"Mummy ride on! Romeo is over spiritual!" A brother said.
"Please, Juliet hug him for us very well!" A sister said.
Since permission was given from above, I tried to grab him from standing behind mummy, but he dodged and ran out of the building. I chased him out of the building as well and all the people in the church building followed us.
"Chai! This is Romeo and Juliet, playing love games in the house of God!"
"When people are supposed to come to the house of God and pray for their destiny. Look at them, playing love play in church!" A lady said.
"Madam there is time for everything. This is their time. Let them make us jealous first. It's not their fault. It's because I don't have what it takes to propose!" A brother said.
"You don't have what it takes to propose? I don't understand?" Mummy asked.
"Mummy! You won't understand ooo!"
"Make sure you see me in my house this evening. We have so much to discuss. You cannot keep somebody's daughter waiting!"
"Mummy I don't like the way you are supporting carnality oooo!" The guy replied.
To be Continued......
This is one of the ways to overcome in besetting sin full stop that is the second name for personal weaknesses. Whenever you keep seeking the face of God over that matter a law of the Spirit of life will be projected into your soul.
Many of you will begin to have strong conviction over a certain discipline God wants you to observe. To some of you, it will come as a divine instruction from God. Some of you will receive it as you study the Bible.
Sometimes when it comes divinely-inspired, it would drop as a thought in your heart. You would think it's your imagination giving you an idea, but it's the instruction of the Holy Ghost.
Practice it and you'll be shocked at how your weaknesses will look as if they don't exist.
By the way, I don't understand this one Juliet is doing oooo. Is it by force to hug Romeo? You people should tell her to stop chasing him ooooo!
