What is first love?

According to what the Holy Spirit has permitted me to reveal; first love is a lifestyle of making the necessity a priority. This is the platform of you setting God’s desire and expectation above every other thing in your life. This is the platform of God’s word or instruction becoming a necessity and a priority in your life.

First love is needed because you cannot just do things, say things and submit to every thing that seeks your attention. There is a specific way to do things. There are specific things to say. There is a specific authority you must submit to; this is dictated by what you have received as your first love.

First Love is needed because of the necessity and priority of life. This is what sets the standard for living.

First love means different thing to different people but it all leads to a place of necessity and clarity. 

First love is always unique and dynamic in nature. It comes in different phases and it is full of authority. It dictates who you should embrace or ignore. This is what set the principle that dictates your decision making and believe.

First love is a system and a flow of life that sets the pace of your destiny according to the expectations of God for your existence.

First love is in different phases which are;

-          Personal relationship with God
-          God’s word and instruction.

MEN

I want to take my time to write this to the men. 

Before and after the creating and formation of man-kind, God has being the author of man’s existence. After the creation in Genesis 1:26 – 28 and after the forming of man-kind in Genesis 2:7, the first thing that man recognized was God. The first person Adam related with was God. The first person Adam listened to was God. The first person Adam became loyal to is God; God was his first love, his dignity and pride.

All Adam could be proud of and stand for was all about God. In God, Adam got his pride, courage, confidence and authority. Even before God brought the animal to Adam to give names, it has always being Adam and His first love (God).

The first person that trusted Adam was His first love (God). The first person that respected Adam was his first love. All Adam knew and became was the function of his first love.

Adam’s first love was GOD ALMIGHTY.

The first love of any man is GOD ALMIGHTY.

To be continued....

HOW TO UNDERSTAND SEXUAL VALUES

Sexual value in a relationship is the discipline and purity you uphold concerning your body and desires. What is sexual value? It is the standard you place on how you honor God with your sexuality. Why is this important? Because sex is not just a physical act; it is a spiritual covenant designed for marriage. Who should care about sexual values? Both singles and those dating, because disregarding God’s design in this area can leave scars, regrets, and unnecessary baggage. 1 Thessalonians 4:3 reminds us, “It is God’s will that you should be sanctified: that you should avoid sexual immorality.” How do you build sexual value? By setting boundaries, avoiding compromising environments, and renewing your mind with God’s Word. When do you start? Now, not when you are engaged or married, because self-control is practiced long before the wedding day. Where does this apply? In how you relate with the opposite sex, the conversations you entertain, the media you consume, and the spaces you allow y...

HEALING BEFORE DATING

Before you enter a relationship, you must be honest about the condition of your heart. Many singles desire love while carrying wounds they have never confronted. Childhood rejection, abandonment, betrayal, harsh words, broken family experiences, unhealthy relationships and repeated disappointments can shape the way you see yourself and interpret the actions of others. Sometimes what you call love is actually a desire to escape loneliness, insecurity or emotional pain. Yet Scripture reminds you that the Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18). Healing must become part of your preparation for healthy love. Unresolved wounds can affect how you communicate, trust, receive affection and respond to conflict. You may become overly suspicious because someone betrayed you before, excessively controlling because you fear abandonment, emotionally distant because vulnerability once hurt you, or desperate for constant reassurance because rejection d...

Youths and Emotional Boundaries

In today’s culture where emotions often lead and convictions take the backseat, many singles and youths find themselves entangled in relationships that slowly pull them away from God rather than draw them closer. It’s easy to get swept up in the excitement of romantic attention and companionship, but without clear spiritual boundaries, you may end up sacrificing your devotion, purity, and even your purpose. The truth is, who you allow into your heart can either fan the flame of your love for God or quietly quench it. Not every connection is meant to carry you forward in your spiritual journey. Some are weights, not wings. God has standards—not to restrict us, but to protect us. Maintaining spiritual boundaries means deciding ahead of time that your walk with God will not be compromised for temporary affection or unguided passion. It’s choosing prayer over pressure, purpose over pleasure, and worship over wandering emotions. When you begin to sense that a relationship is making you too ...
