The intricacies of relationships and human emotions often lead us to question whether our feelings are driven by lust or love. Exploring this topic with sensitivity and open-mindedness, we delve into the motivations and emotions that underpin human connections. While human sexuality is diverse and complex, it is essential to distinguish between healthy sexual attraction and unhealthy or problematic behavior. In this article, we will examine the contrasts between lust and love, understand how they can coexist, and emphasize the importance of honesty and open communication in relationships. Lust: Lust is an intense physical desire or craving for someone, primarily rooted in sexual attraction. Those driven by lust focus on the physical aspects of a relationship, seeking immediate gratification and pleasure. While intense, lust can be short-lived and may not lead to deep emotional connections or long-term commitment.   Love: Love, on the other hand, is a multifaceted emotion th...

 Pornography is a self-destructive tool used by the enemy to tarnish the lives of its victims. The truth about pornography is that it threatens salvation and clouds up a pure mind. The Bible teaches in Ephesians, “fornication and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as is fitting for saints” (Ephesians 5:3). The Book of first Peter adds, 'the face of the Lord is against those who do evil' (1 Peter 3:12). The Book of Matthew also cites pornography as adultery, stating, ‘whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart’ (Matthew 5:28). By watching pornography, you are mentally, emotionally, and spiritually unfaithful to your spouse as well as partaking in something that is immoral in the eyes of God. The General Overseer of Omega Fire Ministries once thought on how pornography works and how masturbation erupts almost immediately. According to him; "When you're watching pornograp...

One of the greatest and anticipated visits finally came to pass. The great Patriarch in ministry often referred to as Daddy G.O by members and church worshippers alike, in person of Pastor Enoch Adeboye, General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, stormed the Church of his son in Auchi yesterday. He had an epic entrance and the crowd where no doubt overwhelmed to see a man of His worth present at His Church. You would remember that the man of God as at last year, had once expected and announced the visit of his Spiritual Father date but the meeting was cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances which wasn't revealed to members of the press. Although, this wasn't far from the speculations that trailed the man of God, as he was in a very tight situation at that point in time, the Apostle was faced with several allegations including rape and sexual assaults and it was assumed that the man of God (E.A  Adeboye  was giving him time to work on Hi...

Popular Kenyan Preacher by name Reverend Lucy Natasha airing her view on relationship emphasized on the need for singles and bachelors alike to exercise patience and wait on the Lord rather than allowing 'self'.  She recently took to her official instagram handle @revlucynatasha and left a caption which reads that "we should wait on the Lord to send someone who can handle the anointing and purpose on our lives".  This boils down on the importance of allowing God decide over our lives, allowing His will to be dominant over ours and remaining patient and calm while He works on us. Recall His ways aren't ours and ours aren't His.  In decision making endeavour to put God first and do not take to drastic decisions because of desperation. Don't get frustrated because of peer group pressure or society views, remain calm, believe God on His word over your life to give you an expected end and not a mere life, not a mere partner but a...

Quite a number of us have faced disappointments and betrayals from those we loved and cherished. We gave them a place in our hearts but they utilized our trust and betrayed our emotions leaving a crack in our hearts. People with deep emotions find it a hard nut to crack when betrayed, it may take a lifetime for such to trust another having been betrayed, as they wouldn't want to play with their emotions again. The impact of destruction is felt greatly when it is internal than external. Your secrets are mostly known by insiders and not outsiders. It becomes known by outsiders when you've degenerated in character and personality or probably by an act of Betrayal . Your person becomes invaluable because it has emanated into a public space. The effect of internal betrayal weighs more on the betrayed than external.  The greatest form of Betrayal its internal. It's more painful when it's within than without.  Whenever there's a plot against one from the outside you can de...

Reasons why people find it hard to forge ahead with their lives after breaking up Forging ahead after a broken relationship, seems quite difficult at first due to the pains one has to go through, anxiety and regrets over their past relationship, making their partner a part of their lives, leaving them shattered and battered and in worst cases, this may result in perfect hatred for their ex if things weren't settled amicably. Have you ever wondered why people feel pains trying to forge ahead with their lives as a result of a heartbreak they underwent? There are reasons why people still hate one another after breakup, one of which is likely because there wasn't a proper settlement between both parties, perhaps one wasn't pacified enough and the outcome of this might leave them as enemies. For one of them the memories of their promises still rings fresh. Relationships as we all know can fold up at any time due to unforeseen circumstances which might be beyond our control; thes...

Pastor's flying around with Private Jets, have often been criticized as they're categorized as wasters. Some take to the claim that they divert church funds for their personal gain and profiting, other than using it for the betterment and development of the Church. Others may feel that other than giving to the needy or giving to charity, or perhaps carrying infrastructural projects around their immediate community, they abandon such ideas and seek to benefit themselves alone. The truth be told, Pastor's and Prophets are not politicians, creation of social amenities are not to be improvised or implemented by them, compelling them to do such and calling them out over the purchase of private jets is sarcastic, a mere waste of time and a juvenile thing to do. Let's get the facts right; Men of God are not voted into power are they? They ought not to be compelled to give to the needy ought they? But one thing stands and that's practicing what they preach, but how many...

Of a fact, an abusive marriage is a product of an abusive relationship. The concept marriage, isn't a child's play and as such, adequate counselings, and advices are to be given. If one who intends to get married feels that advices given to him or her are too much, then try ignorance. It's important to understand that death is a friend of no one and it doesn't come calling, it claims its victim unawares. Dynamic and iconic gospel star, known for her golden voice as to what people describe as "angelic ministration", has made her exit out of planet Earth. The Abia born, Osinachi Nwachukwu died three days ago and her death has no doubt left many in shock. Before going on with the main subject, I write to correct an assumption of what people feel or interpret to be tolerance; Condolence of one's character is totally acceptable as one needs to be tolerant, but when it becomes too much and becomes a burden then it is a signal of impending danger. Everything in l...

If there's one martyr of love in Nigeria it would be Prophet Temitope Balogun Joshua so to speak. The man of God has lived an impactful life worth emulating and due to his lifestyle, many has come to the understanding of love and affection for their brothers in the Christendom. A noble man, one with humility and selfless individual who didn't care about his position but lived his life in all meekness. While his passage unto glory is hard to understand for many, yet we bow respectfully to the sovereignty of God while we remain thankful for the decades of impactful work along with the exemplary life you lived while you were with us. You are a General who set many things in place that generations will continue to copy.  He was a man who definitely knew where he was going. While a lot of well wishers would wish it weren’t true that he has gone home to the father. He was and still is the beginner of trends, the master at his craft. He made the prophetic, deliverance, healing and hum...

A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person. Dave Meurer once said; "a great marriage is not when the ‘perfect couple’ comes together. It is when an imperfect couple learns to enjoy their differences.” It was a day of "awesome" for the Ugboma's as Comedian Bovi and Wife is seen looking glamorous whilst celebrating their 11th marriage anniversary. At 11 still going strong is a thing one should be joyous about. Making a post via his official Instagram handle expressing his appreciation he said; " officialbovi  Thanks guys for all the wishes!
