This will surprise you how it twists into making a lot of sense!
(1)So the first thing a man needs is NOT a woman; it is the presence of God, and a woman should meet him in the presence of God. Eve met Adam in Eden.
(2)The next thing God gave man after putting him in the Garden was WORK. (Gen. 2:15). God gave man work before giving him a woman. That means a man needs a job before he gets a woman. God's priorities are very clear.
(3)The third thing God told man was "Cultivate"...... Cultivate here means, bring out the best in everything around you, to maximize the potentials of everything and everyone around you; to make everything fruitful. He only said that to the male. That's why God will never give a man a finished woman. The male was created by God to create whatever he wants. The woman you are looking for doesn't exist; she's in your head. Your job is to take the raw material you married and cultivate her into the woman in your head. So you have been married for 20yrs and you still don't like the product you get, that's your fault.
(3a)If your wife is putting a little weight and you don't like that, don't criticize her; it's your job to wake her at 6am, " Hey baby, let's go jogging".
(3b)You don't like her dress? Take her to a boutique and buy her clothes you like.
(3c) She can't speak good English? Send her to school and pay her tuition fee. CULTIVATE HER!!!!
(4)The fourth thing God said to man was, "Guard the Garden". The man has to be the protector of everything under his care. That's why God gave you a stronger bone frame. A bigger muscle mass, not to abuse the woman, but to protect the woman.
(5)The last thing God gave man was his Word... God told man not to touch the tree; God never told the woman about the tree, NEVER!!!..... Which means it was the man WHO received the word of God and his job was to teach his wife the word of God.
NOTE: Nothing frustrates a woman like when she asks her man "So what do you think" and the dummy answers "what ever you think is OK"....or keeps quiet. ..Giving Silence...mmmm.
Don't do that bro, don't do that. She's looking for knowledge and direction. That was the last command God gave to man in Vs 17.
★Now watch this: in verse 18, God said, "It is not good for this man to be alone". Now, don't just read the statement fast, read it again slowly, " it is not good for THIS MAN to be alone".
WHAT MAN???
Answer : The man who is:
*In his presence
*Has a job (working)
*Can Cultivate you
*Can protect you
*Can teach you.
So here's the problem:
★ if you meet a man who doesn't like God's presence, isn't working, can't cultivate you, can't protect you and can't teach you, then.....
IT IS GOOD FOR THAT MAN TO BE ALONE! *Full Stop!*

Very correct..thsnks for sharing Stella
ReplyDeleteLove the first.
DeleteThanks for this wisdom. Myles death pained me, choi! But God knows best.
DeleteMyles Munroe...
ReplyDeleteRest In peace.
DeleteI've read this somewhere...
ReplyDeleteBut reading it now, it seems so apt.
Well, it's indeed good for such a man to be alone...
But the ladies won't let him.
They will stay with him ooooooo waiting for change, supernatural change.
WELL SAID ......
ReplyDeleteDoes this mean that a jobless man should be alone ... Hahaha, hello broke brothers
DeleteToo much talk talk, let me be doing the work dey pay me to do
ReplyDeleteYour comment is always off point and so shallow, you're really and empty vessel you this yori of a girl. Na wah.
DeleteApart from spouting spiritual banalities which always sounds cliche,I hope your association with your bishop is rubbing off on you intellectually otherwise you are simply a victim of demagogury.
DeleteBaba ita, haba!!!
DeleteWow Myles Munroe the world best teacher..I really miss that man's teaching
ReplyDeleteif you meet a man who doesn't like God's presence, isn't working, can't cultivate you, can't protect you and can't teach you, then.....
ReplyDeleteIT IS GOOD FOR THAT MAN TO BE ALONE! *Full Stop!*

DeleteLol
ReplyDeleteVery on point. That's why we advice Don't date broke niggas.
ReplyDeleteThere not found themselves talk less of presence of God
Fool, that's the only thing you could take away from a rich post like this. As if you use money to buy the presence of God. With how much love you have for money you're still a church rat.
DeleteWill the presence of God feed u? Even His hates idleness. Find God, find yourself then come find me
DeleteThe irony in our day is that women; including a lot of the girls on this blog begin with sex immediately a boy meets them.
ReplyDeleteI talk about girls because a girl decides whether sex will happen otherwise it is called "rape".
Eve and Adam did not even begin with sex immediately they found each other. Adam did not say "Now here comes my sex partner".
He talked about companionship which is the first and most important thing.
So agree with you, companionship is the first thing in a relationship
DeleteOn point 👌👍
Deletei wish it is as easy as its written, how can a man achieve or fulfill all this expectations when women are forgetting their own roles in the name of feminism and equality
ReplyDeleteShut up! Typical weak man! Blaming everyone else for ur irresponsibility. What have other women and their way of life got to do with you? Be a responsible man and u will attract a responsible woman, finish! But no, u are here waiting for a woman to help u "fulfill all this expectations". Mumu. Did Adam need Eve for anything? Weak fool. The instructions are clear, get working. Be knowledgeable. Find God. All these are yours to achieve by yourself yet u are waiting for a woman first. Boys like u are the reason many women reject men these days. Bloody dumb weakling
DeleteI believe we are talking about the word of God here. The same word says that he who calls his brother 'fool' without cause, is in danger of hellfire (Matthew. 5:22) Pls let's be guided. One can always make a relevant point without resorting to needless abuse.
DeleteA little bit twisted at da end but nice writeup. Myles Munroe is missed. May his soul continue to rest in peace.
ReplyDeleteA man who is the bishop of his home is to set the pace for how spiritual his home will be and not the woman. Anyone looking for a Godly woman should do so only on the account that he is more spiritual.
ReplyDeleteWow.this is deep.
ReplyDeleteStella, please what's happening to Freda and Ay
ReplyDeleteI watched the video. Nice one
ReplyDeleteAy live!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! missing sperm found oga ju111111111111111111
ReplyDeleteMunroe continue to rest
ReplyDeleteMyles Munroe, one of the wisest men that ever lived. A pragmatic teacher. He taught deep things that can solve generational, national problems. God bless your departed soul.
ReplyDeleteI wish to meet his kids one day.
I was watching the video of this excerpt all through the night countless times to finally sleep and wake up to hear of his death. The trauma was heavy. He is greatly missed. His children are taking strides, I pray the blessing of God that says children be greater than their parents be there portion.
Delete*their* portion.
DeleteNice one, correct, thank you for sharing
ReplyDeleteMy Question is why do women usually look forward to marrying men d@ will cater for them, yet claim to be equal wt men? Why do you wanna date someone that's Better and stronger than u so as to protect u and u still holla gender equality #ITHINKMENANDWOMENARENOTEQUAL
ReplyDeleteIt's the mating instinct its also found in animal as well .
DeleteAnon 16:57, God bless u.
DeleteEven lioness hunts for her kids but still needs a man to pamper her.
This is on point.
ReplyDeleteThis is not for the feminists
ReplyDeleteThe ploy & propaganda to turn the modern man into a servile simp is on overdrive.
