Lord I know how to get a man!

Where you are determines who see’s you…

As a follow up to the last blog that has stirred up a lot of interesting response and many have been encouraged. I was for the ladies but it seems a lot of men read it. We this one will help you to position yourself for the man of God that is prepared for you. I encourage you to read the whole of Genesis 24 but specifically the verses below.

Genesis 24:14 And he made the camels kneel down outside the city by the well of water at the time of evening, the time when women go out to draw water. 12 And he said, “O Lord, God of my master Abraham, please grant me success today and show steadfast love to my master Abraham. 13 Behold, I am standing by the spring of water, and the daughters of the men of the city are coming out to draw water. 14 Let the young woman to whom I shall say, ‘Please let down your jar that I may drink,’ and who shall say, ‘Drink, and I will water your camels’—let her be the one whom you have appointed for your servant Isaac. By this I shall know that you have shown steadfast love to my master.” 15 Before he had finished speaking, behold, Rebekah, who was born to Bethuel the son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother, came out with her water jar on her shoulder. 16 The young woman was very attractive in appearance, a maiden whom no man had known. She went down to the spring and filled her jar and came up. 17 Then the servant ran to meet her and said, “Please give me a little water to drink from your jar.”18 She said, “Drink, my lord.” And she quickly let down her jar upon her hand and gave him a drink. 19 When she had finished giving him a drink, she said, “I will draw water for your camels also, until they have finished drinking.” 20 So she quickly emptied her jar into the trough and ran again to the well to draw water, and she drew for all his camels. 21 The man gazed at her in silence to learn whether the Lord had prospered his journey or not.

22 When the camels had finished drinking, the man took a gold ring weighing a half shekel, and two bracelets for her arms weighing ten gold shekels, 23 and said, “Please tell me whose daughter you are. Is there room in your father's house for us to spend the night?” 24 She said to him, “I am the daughter of Bethuel the son of Milcah, whom she bore to Nahor.”

This is an interesting passage of scripture that graphically brings out my point in this blog. Where you are determines who see’s you, so if you are going to get a good man you better be around some good men. If you are hanging around some thugs and thieves you will end up being like them and marrying one of them. If you hang around some players and cheats guess who you will see and who will see you? The principle of company cannot be violated if you are to succeed not just in marriage but in all areas. The book of Proverbs says he that finds a wife finds a good thing… you have to finable and worth finding, you also have to position yourself to be found by the right person by being in the right place.

If you are going to hang around your room wearing your pajamas with your hair in a net you better be ready for advanced spinsterhood. But if you are ready to step into your meaningful relationship then read on. I want to briefly share from extracts from one of my books that will be coming out in 2014 “Mamma I got me a man!” God spoke to me a few years ago and gave me 25 principles that are guaranteed to help you get yourself a ma that will marry you. My wife and I will do a seminar and share these principles as we launch the book so get ready for it.

Please notice that when Eliezer prayed God answered with the arrival of Rebekah who was the appointed woman for Isaac (See verse 14). To see success in this area that is key to your success in life there must be some prayer going on. Listen to the voice of the Lord and obey. I know there is a lot of controversy about whether there is a “right person” for each person to marry, my focus is not to argue that one here we discuss that in the book however if you can pray about a job, a car or a house and God leads you to the right one surely He can lead me to the right man or lead the right man to me. This is a good place to lift up those manicured hands and shout, “He’s on the way, and my greatest blessing ever is at hand today”

Remember Rebekah just got up and was busy about her fathers business as usual but this day was not like other days, she was in for a pleasant surprise. If she had not providentially gone to the well that day she could have slowed down or hindered perhaps even lost her blessing to another. Being by the well at that time was the best place for her on that day and the rest is history.

I want you to notice that when she arrived she did not pull up her skirt a little and drop her top (We have a lot of drop tops these days) Perhaps that’s a joke men would understand as women don’t know much about cars. She got busy serving; the helper that she was naturally manifested and that got her the place in the history books. After serving so well she is given lots of gold; 15 and a half shekels to be specific. Wow here is something you determine your value by what you do with yourself. Don’t wait for someone to determine what you are worth. The gold released here was only a small part of the treasure that was carried on nine camels.

Notice the little word “quickly” that appears in verse 18 and 20, she was quick to serve and this opened the door for her miracle as Eliezer was observing her every action. By the way Eliezer is a type of the Holy Spirit. Her diligence causes the big question to be asked, “Whose daughter are you?” Check Ruth chapter two Boaz asked whose damsel is that? You got to make heads turn girl, you can do it too.

She had these amazing qualities that perhaps you need to check if you have them

She was attractive

She was a virgin (Purity)

She was responsive to needs

She was hard working

She understood honor

She was under a covering

She was humble

My list might be intimidating because you think there are two or three things that you don’t possess. Well you can work on them now and get them sorted until you score seven out of seven.

Because this is a blog I have to stop get my book and learn more all I wanted to say was where you are determines who see’s you. God had to bring my wife 450km to a little town to position her so that I could see her. But God had to position me in the spirit so that I could see her. Guys I will get you on the next one when I write, “Guess what I saw”

Bottom line she got married and so will you.
