We all are created for connection. The first part of connection was in the Garden of Eden between God and Man. Genesis 3: General principles of relationship. 1 CORINTHIANS 13. In today’s teaching, I pray that the Lord will heal our hearts so that He will heal our relationships all around us in Jesus’ name. May we be guided by these under discussed scriptural relationship principles


Law of Relationships:
  • Law of Recognition
  • Law of Influence
  • Law of Connection

Every person coming into your life comes in with a message. It is either in misery or ministry. It is your reaction to them that turns them into which one they deliver. Law of Connection

*What you recognize will bless you. What you respect will affect you.
What is respect? Respect is the appropriate placement of value on something or somebody that determines how you relate to them. You are either propelled or repelled by what you respect!
Proverbs 18:24 – A man that has many friends must show himself friendly.
What you’re looking for will always determine what you’ll find (Matthew 7:7). If you look through the hour glass, everything you’ll find will come in 8 shapes, if you look through the rear mirror everything you’ll find will always appear behind you and if you look through the wind shield, everything you’ll find is always ahead of you.

*Everyone coming into your life has an entry level. Your treatment of them determine if they bless you or curse you. When God wants to bless you, he sends a friend and when the enemy wants to harm you, he sends a friend. Your friends (association) are therefore links to greatness or destruction. Exercise spiritual discernment in making a choice. ‘No one is created for isolation; we are meant to connect with one another. That’s how a family (the smallest unit of the society) is born. A family turns to a community, communities turn into ethnic groups, from there nations emerge and then the world as a globe is evident. The only transparent rule for this mega structure is the law of connection.
Law of connection view shared;

-Interest
-Feelings
-Tastes / appeals
- Beliefs
- Perceptions
- Philosophy
Under this connection, in life we don’t attract people we want, we attract who we are. If you want better relationships and you get better relating with people and you stop expecting people to fit into your specification start affecting their experience. People will usually rise to fit into your expectations.

*Never make promises you cannot or won’t keep. Promise speaks of integrity. If you promise deliver on it. It’s a track record for your reputation (before people) and you own representation (self esteem – the way you see yourself).

Tips from the law of recognition:

- You have not been sent to everybody. Listen, you are not a tablet meeting every need, only Jesus does that. So how do I recognize those I have been assigned. Those who unlock your compassion are those whom you’ve been assigned.
- In all your life long relationships, you’ll only be remembered for two things. The problems you solve and the problems you created. The wound you healed and the one you hurt!
Healthy Relationships: How do you see yourself? Yourself protract decides your conduct. How you see yourself determines your act.

The Law of respect: What you respect will add to you. What you disrespect will haunt you. Find out beautiful relationships around you, it is surrounded by respect. The rich respect money. So it adds to them; the poor despise money, so it stays away from them.

- If you respect money, it will reflect in your treatment of money because you’ll either invest it by making it work or you spread it around for it to work.

- The grace you respect will work for you; the one you dishonor will haunt you! Romans 13:8
- In all relationships you will never attract beyond the quality of your persons. So if you want someone better for a spouse you got to get better by your self.

- Never seek the approval of person from others because if people give you approval for your person you will always go back them for your validation. it's called THE LAW OF CONTROL. No man should be given that role in your life but God. He does so through his Word. 2 Cor 3:18. Any self image built without the word of God will not stand the test tree identity!
