01UndatedMost people's car last longer than their marriage. WHY? For instance in Germany, the government made it as a law that before you are qualified to drive a car, you will go to a driving school, learn the theory and practical before getting a license to drive. Same is applicable to your car, it must go to service and maintenance every two years if it is a new one to check if the car is still road worthy. If your car is above five years old then it must go to service every year. So this makes the car last longer. For you to get a driving licence in germany it takes months but for you to take a marriage certificate in Germany it doesn't take two hours. Once you go on the vail, they give you licence which means that they are more concerned about your car on their street than they are about your life in their communities.A lot of people doesn't go to any driving lessons on marriages. So they end up knowing how to drive a car but not learning how to live with someone.Patience Johnson / quote ↗

03UndatedLadies, a man doesn't want respect, he needs it. A man does not need love. There is no where it is written that a man needs love. They simply needs respect. A man interprets respect as love.When a woman tells a man that she loves him, it doesn't mean anything to him, but when a man knows you respects him, that means a whole lot to him.Patience Johnson / quote ↗
04UndatedChoosing a life partner for marriage should not be taken without a careful and prayerful consideration, if you want to be and remain happy in it.. You can't just jump into it.Patience Johnson / quote ↗
05UndatedThere is nowhere in the scripture that God commanded "Thou shall be married." You don't have to be married to be happy. You don't have to be married in order to be complete. God didn't create you half, He made you whole, you can only make a good home only when you are complete than when you are half. Stop praying for your second half, pray for wholeness.Patience Johnson / quote ↗
06UndatedGod can do all this but one thing He cannot do is choosing your mate,, because He is too smart to choose your mate for you. God knows that if He choose your mate and it didn't work out, you will blame him so He gives you the complete responsibility to choose your mate. That is why the Bible says "he who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtaineth favour from God." You have to find your mate by yourself. It is also not the responsibility of your parents. But God does help you that's why he gave you a brain with five million cells. He gives you tge holy spirit to guide you, He gave you his words to regulate your decisions, He gave you your Pastors to give you the counsels, He gave you parents, He gave you sense and He gave you his own anointing to discern spirits.You meet a terrible marriage once you ignore any of these equipment before marriage.Patience Johnson / quote ↗
07UndatedAnything that is wrong in your life is right because if there is no wrong there you can´t find right.Patience Johnson / quote ↗
08UndatedI have all gifts on earth minus one....Patience to do what the devil wants me to do. My bible taught me a lot about taking some things in my life by force. People do tell me sometimes take it easy, God didn´t tell me to take things easy, He says take Charge. Some people do tell me to be careful! But my bible didn´t tell me to be careful but it says I should be careful for nothing. Some people tell me to take time but my bibles says take charge. Some people says be patient but my bible says whatever your hands finds to do, do it quickly.So don´t only memorise your weakness, try to saturate your strength with the power of God, always have an alternative for any negative suggestion.Patience Johnson / quote ↗
09UndatedBefore you try to be like anyone else, find out if you are your true self, because if you try to be like anyone else including me, that means you do not know who you are. Selah! The day yourself will rise, the people that you want to be like will not be there.Patience Johnson / quote ↗

13UndatedHow to know what God says is the time you took the decision. How to know what God says is what situation and condition was the state of your mind when you took the decision.Any decision you took when you were angry is definitely not the voice of God.Patience Johnson / quote ↗

16UndatedHave you ever asked yourself, why is it that the bible is real when other people ask you to open it? It is not the money in your bank account that kept you alive but the word of God.

18UndatedIt is easy to show sinners how they sinned but God is not looking for sin pointers, He is looking for sin forgivers. Behold the lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world.Patience Johnson / quote ↗
19UndatedIf you want to be inspired, don´t look for who has expired. Look for someone to lift up your vision, look for someone who can make the baby in you live not someone who can cause you abortion or miscarriage. Look for whose vision can challenge your vision. Look for whose story is a true story not a fiction.Patience Johnson / quote ↗
20UndatedIf God ask you to do the impossible, do not look for who have never done it, look for the God of impossibilty. Any man that wants to defeat setbacks, must constantly look at his success.Patience Johnson / quote ↗
21UndatedI don´t care what name you called me before, give me a new name. My old name is not important but my new name is very important. Did they call you Barren? your new name is pregnant.Patience Johnson / quote ↗
22UndatedSomeone asked me why does bad thing happen to good people?My answer: because when bad thing happens to bad nobody sees it. When something bad happens to a bad man there is no difference but when it happens to a good person people will know. Satan doesn´t advertise good things because that is not his job. His job is to steal, kill and destroy. The devil doesn´t talk good of good people but good people should always talk of something that is good.Patience Johnson / quote ↗
23UndatedLord, I know that where I am right now, isn’t where You’re taking me. Give me glimpses of Your vision for my future, so that my understanding may grow in accordance with Your timing. Give me patience along the way and faith to trust that You’re always working for my good. Amen.Patience Johnson / quote ↗
24UndatedHas God Given You a Vision?‘Write the vision and make it plain … that he may run who reads it.’Habakkuk 2:2When God gives you a vision for your life, write it down, keep it before you at all times and run with it. You say, ‘But I see no way for it to come to pass.’ The Bible says, ‘The vision is yet for an appointed time … wait for it; because it will surely come’ (Habakuk 2 v. 3 NKJV). You may not know how to get from where you are right now to where the vision will ultimately take you - but God does. So ask Him to reveal the next step to you. Whether you’re in prison like Joseph, in a soup kitchen in the inner city, or at home taking care of small children, God will fulfil the vision He placed in your heart. The more you see yourself leading in the boardroom, launching your own business, serving in ministry, writing your first book, or helping others through your gifts, the sooner it’ll become a reality.Patience Johnson / quote ↗
