Desires Is Not Enough!

-
“If you think it, you can have it.” I stand to disagree with this quota. On this ground, I want to write this post to you. It’s so frustrating in the world of relationship because youths and even adults are not actually getting what they desire. Only few people get what they desired and that’s because of a principle I want to share in this post.

There is nothing wrong with having good and great desires. As a matter of fact, I want to encourage you to have great desires for a nurturing and successful relationship. But don’t stop there, you must seek to discover and obey the necessary principle required.

Desire is not enough; knowledge is needed. It’s so amazing how some people get the result of what they desired and begin to regret because they didn’t know what they were actually desiring. My first question to you is, do you really know your desire? The kind of man or lady you desire to marry, do you actually understand what it means to marry that kind of man or lady? Do you understand the responsibility that’s attached to you marrying that kind of man or lady? Do you really know what you are desiring?

Desire is not enough; prepare. Most of the time, youths are blinded by the opportunities surrounding their desires so much, that they forget that responsibility is the foundation of every opportunity. Knowing your desires is not enough; I think you need to prepare for what your desire. This kind of man or lady that you desire to date, and marry; there is a specific kind of mindset, and attitude required to gain them. This kind of man or lady that you desire to date, and marry; there is a kind of attitude, and mindset needed for you to maintain a progressive relationship with them. Just like any device, every human has a specific way God has design them to function, to love and be loved. Every heart has its own manual. HAVE YOU DISCOVERED THE MANUAL FOR WHAT YOU ARE DESIRING?

GOOD DESIRES CAN HURT YOU. GODLY DESIRES CAN FRUSTRATE YOU. The fact that your desires are good and Godly does not mean it’s meant for you. You have to prepare for what you desire. The preparation here implies you asking the Lord, if what you are desiring is actually part of what He has planned for your life. 

Desire is not enough; recognize. The major issue that frustrate a lot of youths in love and relationship is their inability to recognize what they are actually desiring and waiting for. The reason why youths miss it is because youths are more focused on the CONTAINER than the CONTENT. You must set the balance. Knowing how to recognize the content is of higher priority that you recognizing the container. It’s not about the looks, curves, shape and possession. Even thou these are important, you must focus on some thing that is the necessity of love and relationship. These things are what I call “capacity.” Its not about the design, it’s about the capacity. Do you know the physical capacity of your desire? Do you know the intellectual capacity of your desire? Do you know the spiritual capacity of your desire? Do you know the relational capacity of your desire? Do you know the social capacity of your desire? Do you understand what it will take you to maintain your desire when you achieve what you desire?  

CAN YOU RECOGNIZE YOUR DESIRE?

Thank God for the figure eight, straight legs, curved legs, hot legs, smooth skin, broad chest etc… What is the CAPACITY SPECIFICATION of your desire? Can the capacity in what you desire, add value to what God has called you to do? What capacity do you need to fuel what God has given to you? CAN YOU RECOGNIZE AND IDENTIFY WHAT YOU DESIRE WHEN WHAT YOU DESIRE, APPEARS IN FRONT OF YOU? 

I WILL CONCLUDE BY SAYING; If you can think it, if it is meant for you, IF YOU DESIRE IT, if you prepare for it, and if can you recognize it, then you can have it.

Always remember John 15:5 and Matthew 11:28-29

There is still HOPE for you in Christ Jesus.

Watch out for my next post "Being perfect is not enough!"

Thanks.

Yours Sincerely, 

Prince Victor Matthew

How to Stop Settling for Less in Dating Relationship - Part 6 (Final Part)

-
In the world of relationships, it’s easy to focus on whether we’re settling for less, but what about the other side of the coin? As Christian youths, we must also consider whether we’re unintentionally causing someone else to settle for less by dating us. Relationships are meant to be mutual, uplifting, and Christ-centered. If we’re not careful, our actions, words, or even our approach to dating could cause someone else to compromise their values or settle for something less than God’s best. Here’s how you can avoid putting someone in that position. First, it’s important to be honest with yourself about your intentions. Before you enter into a relationship, ask yourself why you want to date this person. Are you genuinely interested in them, or are you just trying to fill a void, combat loneliness, or conform to societal pressure? If your motivations aren’t pure, you might end up leading someone on, making them believe the relationship has more potential than it actually does. Pray for ...

Settling for less in a relationship is something many of us have heard about but rarely fully understand. As Christian youths, navigating relationships can be particularly challenging because we want to honor God while also fulfilling our natural desire for companionship. But what does it really mean to settle for less? How do we know when we’re compromising our values or falling short of what God has planned for us? Settling for less in a relationship means accepting someone who doesn’t align with God’s purpose for your life. It’s when you allow fear, loneliness, or the pressure of time to lead you into a relationship that isn’t right for you. It’s when you overlook red flags, ignore the prompting of the Holy Spirit, or compromise your standards, hoping that things will get better with time. But deep down, you know something is off—something is missing.  We all have a God-given purpose, a divine assignment that shapes our lives and decisions. When you settle for less in a relation...

Going through a breakup, especially after realizing you were settling for less, can be a deeply challenging experience.

For Christian youths, this process involves unlearning old habits, relearning God’s truth about relationships, and opening your heart to love again. Here are 25 specific ways to navigate this journey. Acknowledge the reality of the situation. The first step in unlearning is to face the truth about your previous relationship. Admit to yourself that you were settling for less, and recognize the patterns and behaviors that led you there. This honesty is crucial for your healing. Allow yourself to grieve. It’s okay to feel sad, angry, or even confused after a breakup. Don’t rush through these emotions. Give yourself the space to grieve the relationship and the dreams you had for it. This is an essential part of unlearning. Distance yourself from your ex. To unlearn unheal...
