Do You Believe God For A Love Story?

Do You Believe God For A Love Story?

“Do two people start traveling together without arranging to meet?” – Amos 3:3 GNT

          So, not going to lie my love life has not gone the way that I wanted too lately. I have had a rough journey in dating and I feel like lately God wants me to wait on his timing for a spouse. But as a single black woman, I have had a problem with dating cotton picking fools. Men who are extremely lazy, don’t work, don’t shower, momma’s boys, and so many other problems with them. So, because of my bad dating habits, I have been left broken and dealing with a lot of crap. So I made a announcement that the next man I date have to:

  • Be rich, handsome, and fight like (Floyd Mayweather Jr.)
  • Be rich and  handsome like Chris Brown
  • Be rich like Prince William

I absolutely refuse to date anymore broke men and I am not working with them to uplift them anymore. Growing up I never saw good relationships and I always watched women do stupid things because of men. So I was in high school dating grown men behind closed doors.

          But because of that I got into a bunch of terrible and bad relationships. I didn’t have “love” as a child and so I was just going from boyfriend to boyfriend. Well one day life got really serious because I became pregnant, and though I had money I was now dealing with a man (my ex-husband Ra’keem) who was jealous of me, and he was willing to do anything and everything to destroy me.

          So, in 2023 I lost my home, was evicted with (a child), lived in 4 different states, and then moved back to Chicago for a season. I learned the consequences of dating men who are irresponsible and cannot provide a house and home as a man. I don’t believe there is anything wrong with being single, but being in a relationship with the wrong person can lead to danger and disaster.

          I made the decision that for a season that I was going to take a long break from dating and get my life together. I made the decision that fixing my credit score, buying a car, buying a house, and working to fix and restore my career is way more important than dating a man right now. I think in church there is so many teachings on courting, but they are not telling you how bad the dating scene is right now in the Christian world right now.

          Don’t marry someone just because someone in the church say’s to. Get married to someone who is equally yoked to you in responsibility. Also, women do not marry any man that you have more money then. If you have more money than a man he will never be happy for you. Some men hide things under the rug and they wait until you get married to show you how evil, jealous, and envious of you. When a man is jealous of you because he can’t lead you financially – he will do everything that he can to destroy you.

          Even in the process of trying to lose weight, I was dealing with the men I was dating who was not happy for me and would try to argue with me about going to the gym to better myself. As a woman never try to make a man see your point of view if he is jealous of you because you already lost the battle. That is a mental issue that he has if he does not want you to go to the gym to better yourself as a woman. You need to believe God that he will send someone who will have high standards like you, and that he will surely bring someone that will encourage you to push someone to Christ. I know that they say “don’t be unequally yoked to an unbeliever” – but you have to understand a lot of men in the church are secretly gay. So if you have to marry a man who is not saved and you have to lead him to salvation remember 1 Peter 3:4 , “Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight”.

Let’s Be Real : You Need To Stop Smoking Weed ( Marijuana)

Now first of all im not a hypocrite , so I can say the Lord told me to stop taking Ashawangda. Ashawangda is a stem of marijuana , though you can buy it in stores like Walmart its still not a good supplement to take.

But in regard to weed ( marijuana) dont let a blunt cause you to miss a good opportunity. For example , in order to get into the Army you have to pass a drug test. You cant take edibles and you cant smoke any weed ( marijuana). You having a better life by enlisting into the military is more important that rolling up a blunt.

You have to let people go and there bad company go in order to focus on something better in the future and the long run. Sometimes you may even have to let go of you parents ( mother and father) in order to have a better life ( Psalms 27). Even if your mother smokes marijuana you need to stay away from her so that you’re not tempted to smoke weed either.

If you are a man reading this , you need to be a man and stand on your word. Do what needs to be done in order for you to progress in the future. Enlisting into the military ( Army ) is a good choice to get your life together. So go see the recruiter and do what needs to be done to better yourself. Like studying for a asvab, cleaning out your system, and getting married to your fiance before bootcamp so you can enjoy your enlistment together. Moral of the story, your good future and destiny isn’t worth a blunt. So focus on God instead!

Work Massages On Break Time

Ecclesiastes 7:16-17New King James Version

16 Do not be overly righteous,
Nor be overly wise:
Why should you destroy yourself?
17 Do not be overly wicked,
Nor be foolish:
Why should you die before your time?

***

You never know when love is going to happen. It might actually happen on your lunch time in between shifts.. Say ( as a woman ) , the man you have been eyeing for a long time offers to massage something on your body in the computer room at work. I mean there is nothing wrong with that, it’s not inappropriate. Nobody walked into the room , and you and that man were alone.

Truth is, it’s the beginning to something special that is leading to marriage. Do something out the box so that you can enjoy the gift of marriage. There is nothing wrong with a little massage at work..

Having A Successful Interview

Matthew 25:21King James Version21 His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

When You Go Into A Group Interview

When you are going in for a job interview you want to hear this words , “You’re hired”! Being called in for a interview is a major feat , and you may find yourself in the position where you have to work 2 jobs ( Amos 9:13-15) ! With that being said when being called in for a group interview , you can still be selected on the spot to be hired to work for that company in the select hours that you have chosen .

In The Holy Bible , the word of God teaches on Proverbs 6 and how important it is to maintain consistent employment.

Employment is a necessity. So do everything that you can to remain employed. I hope that you have a successful job interview and that you hear those words , “You’re Hired”! As you are preparing ahead of your interview, try to bring your resume , and impress your new employer – and remember to dress professional !

What A Night It Has Been

Isaiah 54:17New King James Version

17 No weapon formed against you shall prosper,
And every tongue which rises against you in judgment
You shall condemn.
This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord,
And their righteousness is from Me,”
Says the Lord.

Being a parent comes with unexpected hospital visits. On this episode of the ghetto parenting life chronicles, my ( daughter Ruth) had to be admitted. I believe God for supernatural healing. ( Ruth ) was very sick and throwing up . I say this because as a parent don’t automatically assume that throwing up is normal because it could be a sign that the child needs to go to the doctor.

Because we will be in the hospital for one week. Moral of the story don’t automatically assume that your child is being “extra”, “dramatic”, or “doing something for attention”. Something could really be wrong so get it checked out !

Trusting God While Raising A Child Born Premature

Isaiah 53:5New International Version

5 But he was pierced for our transgressions,
    he was crushed for our iniquities;
the punishment that brought us peace was on him,
    and by his wounds we are healed.

**

In 2021 I gave birth to a beautiful baby girl named Ruth, who was born premature. In the Black culture I don’t think premature birthing is discussed and how time consuming and how much it costs financially. Don’t think that once they get older the sickness is over because it’s not. Actually , as they get older more is discovered and because the medical field is evolving. When ( Ruth) was a baby , it was recommended that (she) have surgery.. However I didn’t feel the peace of God on that and that was when we were living in a house in Oxon Hill , Maryland. Years later as a single mother I am still dealing with the consequences financially of having a (baby that was born sick ) by myself.

In this season I am learning contentment and I am learning to thank God in all circumstances, in all situations, and all events. So I bless the name of the Lord in the midst of this. I thank God that he has provided insurance. I thank God he has provided money. I thank God he has provided more than enough for me to take care of my daughter.

i say this so that you know don’t think you have a premature baby it’s over when they turn one because it’s not.

You’re just getting started. There are unplanned emergency rooms visits, surgeries , doctor’s notes , excused absence from school due to medical reasons , pediatricians, and so much more involved with having baby born premature. My original due date was October 19, 2021 – she was born September 23, 2021.

No , the father ( Ra’keem ) has not been helpful. I have had to deal and handle this all financially myself but God has helped me. Moral of the story when you have a premature baby brace yourself for the reality of :

  • Stomach surgery
  • Autism diagnosis
  • Asthma
  • Speech Therapy

And so much more. But know that even if you are doing it as a single parent the Lord will send people to help you and he will indeed provide.

Sincerely,

Minister Precious – Diamond S. Chessier
