SHOULD COUPLES PRAY TOGETHER?

 THE EFFICACY OF COUPLE'S PRAYER


The power of prayer can never be estimated, particularly the power of joint prayers, how much more the prayers from two hearts that are already joined as one. The Scripture says "one will chase a thousand, but two will chase ten thousand". That's geometric in proportion.

Below are some of the powers and benefits derivable from Couple's Prayer.


1. It is always difficult to hold the hands of someone you are not happy with in prayers.


2. The power of praying together is hidden from many couples.


3. Prayers can solve any problem, it can bring down any mountain in  marriage.


4. The couples that stay connected in prayers live happier and healthier.


5. Never joke with prayers in your marriage!


6. There are types of prayer:

a. Personal prayer

b. Congregational prayer.

c. Family prayer 

d. Couples' prayer etc.


7. Family prayer is different from Couples' prayer. So many marriages observe family prayer but neglect Couples' Prayer.


8. Couples' Prayer involves only the husband and the wife. Don't assume family prayer for this please.


9. You need to be alone with your spouse in the place of prayer, don't be too busy for this.


10. You have not won the battle of quarrelling, nagging, unloving, lack of respect etc because you have not been holding hands together in prayers.


11. Put aside every resentment and join hands with him/her.


12. Don't wait till your spouse instigate it, make the first move by calling on him/her for prayers.


13. End every argument in prayers. Prayer has enough power to melt away hurt. Any time you are seriously furious or hurt, tell your spouse to pray together.


14. Couples prayers is a serious prayer but it can be spiced with some activities to foster the bond,  for examples:

a. Hold hands together

b. Join hands together and walk around

c. You can pray by standing chest to chest.

d. Hold each other tightly.

e. Placing hands on each other's shoulder.


15. Don't be too rigid when you are together with your spouse in prayer, you are husband and wife, you can be in any form to pray. 


16. Don't always stay afar from each other during couples' prayer.


17. The secret of couple's prayer is, be willing and ready to pray with him/her regardless of of the heaviness of your heart.


18. Love and respect for each other is the outcome of couples' prayer.


19. When we pray together as couples, we will have emotional security and confidence in each other.


20. I will encourage young couples to grow together in prayers. Difficult issues of life and marriage can be solved through couple's prayer.


21. Also, my admonition goes to "about to wed" couples, don't be carried away with the joy of the wedding, start the couple's prayer right from the night of your wedding and maintain it.


22. Make use of any available time to strengthen the prayer life between you and your spouse.

MAKING SEX MEANINGFUL (1): WHAT SUSANNA TAUGHT HER FRIEND

 MAKING SEX MEANINGFUL (1): WHAT SUSANNA TAUGHT HER FRIEND


Susanna was lying naked in bed, tired.


She was wearing a smile. A glow on her face.


Her legs were spread. Her arms thrown wide.


Susanna's phone rang.


She struggled lifting up her head to pick up the phone which was on the candle stool just next to the bed.


She picked up the phone. It was her female friend calling. She answered.


"Hey girl" Susanna answered with a sleepy voice.


"Are you sleeping?" Her friend asked her.


"No. I am just well done. My husband has just made sweet love to me and my body is completely done. He is too good in bed" said Susanna.


"Cheyy, sis. You are there making love and we are over here about to start our Concert?" The friend asked.


Susanna laughed and said, "What can I do? My husband wanted us to make love and so I submitted.


I am sorry, I won't make it for the Concert today. I will send my contribution thru Mobile Money.


Girl, I can't even drive right now. The sex was so good, my legs are still trembling. My body needs some time to calm down" Susanna said as she stretched her body.


"What's the secret?" The friend asked.


"The secret to what?" Susanna sought to know.


"The secret to a great sexual-life? I love my husband and I know he loves me. But I can't even remember the last time we made love. It's like he doesn't find me sexy any more" explained the friend.


"Well, is he a boobs person, a butt person or a hips person?" Susanna asked.


"Hmmmnn. I don't know" the friend answered.


Susanna turned to the side while speaking on the phone, "What, you have no idea what your husband's favourite woman's body part is? Girl, you need to learn your husband"


"I thought all a man cares about is the vagina?" Said the friend.


"My dear, making love is more than the vagina.

Men are visual and they love to touch. Find out which body part he loves and present that body part nicely to him.

If it is your butt, bend over in front of him suggestively, rub your butt on him, and dance for him. If it is your chest, wear see through clothes when it is just the two of you, position your chest before him, wear either a bra that shows off your chest or stay bra less, show him your nipples, try a wet t-shirt sometimes. If it is your hips, whine your waist and dance for him, wear tight stuff, flaunt those hips, excite him" said Susanna.


"I think he is a butt guy. But I feel so self-conscious about it. I get shy being naked before him. My butt is big and full of stretch marks" the friend confessed.


"Now see you. If you are shy in front of your husband, who will you be free with? We women are the ones who beat ourselves down. That big butt of yours had to have stretch marks to grow in size. Your stretch marks are beautiful, be proud of them. Let your husband marvel at your buttocks. Maybe he desires to grab and play with your butt but you deny him. Girl, your body and sexiness is not for you, it is for him.

If you are standing in the way of him enjoying your sexiness then you are failing as a wife. Be confident when naked" Susanna told her.


"Sometimes he talks to my butt as if it has life. I honestly used to think he married me for my butt. He looks at my butt like it speaks to him. I find that weird" the friend said.


Susanna laughed as she laid on her back.

"Do you know how many wives wish their husbands would do that? You should be grateful. When a man loves his wife's body, he gets weird. He can even become a freak. Let him be weird. Allow his sexuality to be expressed raw. Enjoy it. Play along. Don't be too rigid; loosen up. Too many wives are uptight in the bedroom. What do you wear to bed?" Susanna asked the friend.


"A t-shirt, a track, a pair of socks and stockings on my head depending on my hairstyle" answered the friend.


Susanna laughed.


"Why are you laughing? I feel comfortable in them" the friend told Susanna.


"Oh no girl! That is not how you ask for sex. If you want sex, you dress for sex. I have seen you going to work, you dress up. You should put up the same effort to dress up for sex. If you will not wear a sexy night gown or clothes that are light and free, showing your nipples and curves then sleep naked. Remember, men are visual and they love to touch. Whatever you wear, look at yourself in the mirror and judge for yourself if you look sexy.

A woman can have a nice body but she hides it behind boring clothes.

Nice is not what the media says, but your natural beauty. I hope you wash your Vagina too at night" Susanna spoke.


"I do. Of course I do" said the defensive friend.


"Good, ‘cause good and clean Vagina makes it attractive and good hygiene around the vagina makes him want to make love and to touch you more" Susanna said.


"Lick me? Isn't that foolish?" The friend got shocked.


"You mean, he has never licked you before? My goodness!!! Are you serious?" Susanna was astonished. She changed the hand that held the phone.


"He has wanted to do many times but I have said no. I don't like him looking at my private area" the friend said.


"But he is your husband. You are one flesh. It is part of foreplay.

In fact, anything sexual you both desire to do, you two can do it. God created the clit with powerful sensations.

The clit is there purely for pleasure. Do you know how interestingly sensitive your clit is?" Susanna asked.


"No, I thought he should just focus on the vagina. He goes in and gets his orgasm and then it is done" said the friend.


"What about you? What about your orgasm? Do you orgasm?" Susanna questioned.


"A woman doesn't have to orgasm? Right?" Asked the friend.


"Do you orgasm?" Susanna questioned further.


"I don't think I do" the friend said.


"That is because you are too rigid. You have rules when it comes to sex. The only rule a married couple should have is to be faithful to each other. Relax. Let him explore your clit. He wants to. Let him lick you, touch you, penetrate you. Relax and let him please you. Don't block him or frustrate him yet he is horny for you. Girl, orgasms are sweet; but you won't get them when you overthink. A man feels good when he makes the female body orgasm, you are denying him that good feeling" Susanna boast out.


"He cums so quickly though. I keep telling him he needs to last. His penis has a problem" her friend complained.


Susanna leaned on her other side and said, "Oh no, don't ever make him feel bad about his penis. Never talk negatively about the one and only penis that should satisfy you. He cums quickly either because your vagina is too sweet or he wants to end it quickly because he is horny but you are passive and boring. If you make sex exciting, he will learn to prolong it because he wants it to last. Keep changing sex positions, when you feel he is about to cum, deny him the climax by pausing or removing his penis from inside you so that you do a different style.

You do different sex positions right? Or is it just missionary?"


"What is missionary?" The friend asked.


Susanna smiled and laughed then said, "That is when you lie on your back and spread your legs, he makes love to you while on top of you"


"Yeap. That's the one we do. That is the only one we do" the friend answered.


"That is the only one you do? Oh no girl. Your body is capable of more, you can do doggie, sit on him and ride him, do it leaning on the side. Wait a second, have you ever been the one who initiates sex?" Susanna asked.


"No. I thought that is the work of the husband?" The friend sought clarity.


"Sex is not for the man alone. Women are sexual beings too, you have sexual needs too.

Men don't love a sexually passive wife, they want a wife who can show him she wants his sex too. He wants you to make moves on him too. Tease him, seduce him, strip for him, take your fingers inside his boxers and rub his penis to hardness, lick and touch his nipples, be the first to kiss him.

Don't just sit and wait for him to always do all the work. He wants you to want him too. Why are you so shy about sex?" Susanna spoke.


"I grew up thinking it's a no go zone, a taboo. Maybe that has led me to being defensive about it" the friend explained.


"Oh yes. The world has damaged the view of sex.

Because sex has been abused and misused, it is easy to see it as dirty and evil. But sex is from God. God wants you and your husband to enjoy it in friendship, don't spit on God's gift to your marriage.

The Bible says Abraham knew his wife when It talks about them making love. Sex makes you two know each other and be more one, you are one flesh. Your husband will not know you if you close your legs, hide your clit or be ashamed of your stretch marks. Be completely naked and horny for your husband. I have to end the call dear, my husband is back from the shower and I see he is horny again. Talk to you later. Have fun" Susanna paused.


"Thanks girl. God bless. Have fun too" the friend said then hanged up.


Later that night, the friend texted Susanna on her phone.


The text said, "Thank you for the talk girlfriend. I have just had an awesome orgasm.


My body feels so good. My husband did things to me I have never felt before.


I have never seen him this sexually excited. We are waiting for him to cool then harden up again for second round.

COST OF A HAPPY HOME!

COST OF A HAPPY HOME! 


When you see a happy couple, don't envy them or assume they are lucky to find each other. There is no happy home anywhere, if you see any be sure they were made.


Being a good person or being religious doesn't make a happy home neither does riches and wealth. 


Marrying the most beautiful woman or the most handsome man doesn't guarantee happiness in marriage either. 


Many believers even think marrying another good believer is a sure way to having a happy home but many have been disappointed. 


What then makes up a happy home?

A happy home is a function of mutual fulfilment derived from mutual selfless commitment to the marital union. 


Having a happy home can only be achieved by deliberate efforts and determination of both parties. No matter how much a partner desires a happy home, it can only happen if the other partner wants and agrees to build a happy home. 


To achieve a happy home therefore, both parties must first offer themselves as a living sacrifice on the altar of their marriage. They must deny themselves and be willing to accept their cross.


In a happy home, ego and self are buried in the grave of marital bliss. Partners in a happy home don't think too much about themselves but the happiness of their spouse. 


The journey to a happy home can be initiated by the man or the woman. This journey starts with contentment and diligence. Then it continues in daily forgiveness and mutual tolerance. 


 No couple is happy when they continue to look at each other's weaknesses or offences. They can only be happy if they choose to accept each other's shortcomings and offences and take their pains and hurts to the Almighty God, instead of romancing with them.


Happy couples don't win arguments, rather they communicate to achieve a better union. 


Happy couples don't compare their marriage with others, they are happy and contented with what they have. 


Happy homes are not meant for selfish and inconsiderate partners. Happiness is a choice but the price is not cheap. Only the humble and the broken can buy it. 


The manual for a happy home is not designed by the society or social media. They are designed by the couple. The ideal home mustn't follow the acceptable trends in the society, rather working and practicing what makes the parties happy. 


You can initiate the journey to a happy home today no matter how far you have travelled in the path of bitterness and unforgiveness. An unhappy home is the junior sibling to hell fire, while a happy home is a reflection of heavenly bliss.


The choice is yours today but remember; the key here are: COMMITMENT, CONTENTMENT, COMMUNICATION and PRAYER.


Give Peace a chance in your marriage today.
