For the Married, Thinking about Marriage, and the Divorced - A MUST READ!
When I got home that night as my wife served dinner, I held her hand and said, I've got something to tell you. She sat down and ate quietly. Again I observed the hurt in her eyes.
Suddenly I didn't know how to open my mouth. But I had to let her know what I was thinking. I want a divorce. I raised the topic calmly.
She didn't seem to be annoyed by my words, instead she asked me softly, why?
I avoided her question. This made her angry. She threw away the chopsticks and shouted at me, you are not a man! That night, we didn't talk to each other. She was weeping. I knew she wanted to find out what had happened to our marriage. But I could hardly give her a satisfactory answer; she had lost my heart to Jane. I didn't love her anymore. I just pitied her!
With a deep sense of guilt, I drafted a divorce agreement which stated that she could own our house, our car, and 30% stake of my company.
She glanced at it and then tore it into pieces. The woman who had spent ten years of her life with me had become a stranger. I felt sorry for her wasted time, resources and energy but I could not take back what I had said for I loved Jane so dearly. Finally she cried loudly in front of me, which was what I had expected to see. To me her cry was actually a kind of release. The idea of divorce which had obsessed me for several weeks seemed to be firmer and clearer now.
The next day, I came back home very late and found her writing something at the table. I didn't have supper but went straight to sleep and fell asleep very fast because I was tired after an eventful day with Jane.
When I woke up, she was still there at the table writing. I just did not care so I turned over and was asleep again.
In the morning she presented her divorce conditions: she didn't want anything from me, but needed a month's notice before the divorce. She requested that in that one month we both struggle to live as normal a life as possible. Her reasons were simple: our son had his exams in a month's time and she didn't want to disrupt him with our broken marriage.
This was agreeable to me. But she had something more, she asked me to recall how I had carried her into out bridal room on our wedding day.
She requested that every day for the month's duration I carry her out of our bedroom to the front door ever morning. I thought she was going crazy. Just to make our last days together bearable I accepted her odd request.
I told Jane about my wife's divorce conditions. . She laughed loudly and thought it was absurd. No matter what tricks she applies, she has to face the divorce, she said scornfully.
My wife and I hadn't had any body contact since my divorce intention was explicitly expressed. So when I carried her out on the first day, we both appeared clumsy. Our son clapped behind us, daddy is holding mommy in his arms. His words brought me a sense of pain. From the bedroom to the sitting room, then to the door, I walked over ten meters with her in my arms. She closed her eyes and said softly; don't tell our son about the divorce. I nodded, feeling somewhat upset. I put her down outside
the door. She went to wait for the bus to work. I drove alone to the office.
On the second day, both of us acted much more easily. She leaned on my chest. I could smell the fragrance of her blouse. I realized that I hadn't looked at this woman carefully for a long time. I realized she was not young any more. There were fine wrinkles on her face, her hair was graying! Our marriage had taken its toll on her. For a minute I wondered what I had done to her.
On the fourth day, when I lifted her up, I felt a sense of intimacy returning. This was the woman who had given ten years of her life to me.
On the fifth and sixth day, I realized that our sense of intimacy was growing again. I didn't tell Jane about this. It became easier to carry her as the month slipped by. Perhaps the everyday workout made me stronger.
She was choosing what to wear one morning. She tried on quite a few dresses but could not find a suitable one. Then she sighed, all my dresses have grown bigger. I suddenly realized that she had grown so thin, that was the reason why I could carry her more easily.
Suddenly it hit me... she had buried so much pain and bitterness in her heart. Subconsciously I reached out and touched her head.
Our son came in at the moment and said, Dad, it's time to carry mom out. To him, seeing his father carrying his mother out had become an essential part of his life. My wife gestured to our son to come closer and hugged him tightly. I turned my face away because I was afraid I might change my mind at this last minute. I then held her in my arms, walking from the bedroom, through the sitting room, to the hallway. Her hand surrounded my neck softly and naturally. I held her body tightly; it was just like our wedding day.
But her much lighter weight made me sad. On the last day, when I held her in my arms I could hardly move a step. Our son had gone to school. I held her tightly and said, I hadn't noticed that our life lacked intimacy.
I drove to office.... jumped out of the car swiftly without locking the door. I was afraid any delay would make me change my mind...I walked upstairs. Jane opened the door and I said to her, Sorry, Jane, I do not want the divorce anymore.
She looked at me, astonished, and then touched my forehead. Do you have a fever? She said. I moved her hand off my head. Sorry, Jane, I said, I won't divorce. My marriage life was boring probably because she and I didn't value the details of our lives, not because we didn't love each other anymore. Now I realize that since I carried her into my home on our wedding day I am supposed to hold her until death do us apart.
Jane seemed to suddenly wake up. She gave me a loud slap and then slammed the door and burst into tears. I walked downstairs and drove away.
At the floral shop on the way, I ordered a bouquet of flowers for my wife. The salesgirl asked me what to write on the card. I smiled and wrote, I'll carry you out every morning until death do us apart.
That evening I arrived home, flowers in my hands, a smile on my face, I run up stairs, only to find my wife in the bed - dead.
My wife had been fighting CANCER for months and I was so busy with Jane to even notice. She knew that she would die soon and she wanted to save me from the whatever negative reaction from our son, in case we push thru with the divorce.-- At least, in the eyes of our son--- I'm a loving husband....
The small details of your lives are what really matter in a relationship. It is not the mansion, the car, property, the money in the bank. These create an environment conducive for happiness but cannot give happiness in themselves. So find time to be your spouse's friend and do those little things for each other that build intimacy. Do have a real happy marriage!
If you don't share this, nothing will happen to you.
If you do, you just might save a marriage.
Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.
A CHRIST-CENTERED MARRIAGE IS A MARRIAGE THAT IS SURE TO LAST A LIFETIME.
So then, they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate. Matthew 19:6

Kingdom Greetings from God Our Father,
I am writing you all to allow you an introduction to The Kingdom Harvest Church Fellowship
Our mandate is: The Whole Church by the Holy Spirit, taking the Whole Gospel to the Whole World.
Stated simply, we exist to provide meaningful opportunities for building relationships among Christian leaders, ministries and local churches, for the purpose of nurturing and equipping them to be more effective in building and multiplying strong local churches worldwide.
We seek common ground and identify those areas where we agree. Through mutual love and respect for one another in pure Christian fellowship and the common task we share, we find agreement, community, wholeness and unity.
We seek to provide sanctuary for ministers everywhere they can be supported, accepted, equipped, mentored, nurtured and strengthened.
We seek to build Christ-centered relationships, provide resources for ministerial enrichment resulting in both personal and church growth, and provide opportunities for interaction with seasoned and gifted pastors with whom to personally consult, and provide equipping principles to assist each of our members in achieving their personal and ministerial goals.
Our purpose, therefore, is to extend a hand of fellowship to every born again, God-called minister of the Gospel and every church that God leads to us.
We are currently looking to expand our fellowship across the United States and globaly. We are in much prayer that God would send us leaders with great integrity and a heart to reach God’s people. Please feel free to view our website http://www.khchurchfellowship.co.cc/, contact our Headquarter Office at admin@khchurchfellowship.co.cc for more information. Please pray about your decision to join us in the Lord’s endeavors.
Thank you in advance for your consideration and continued prayers as we do a work for the Lord.

Hello Friends,
What a privilege to seat behind my laptop and type this words of encouragement. I read several of your comments, mails and also receive some calls. I am glad that the short exhortation of YOUR MIRACLE IS ON THE WAY was a blessing. Let’s journey together again (See 2 Kings 7).
Our world is filled with people who are busy but not ultimately effective or satisfied. Listen! No matter how big the world is, there’s a place for you in it when you discover and manifest your gift. I have found that people are constantly waiting for God to tell them what to do when it has been give to them already. What we have to do is listen to what God has given us in our hearts and minds. No matter what you are busy doing, no matter what you are accomplishing, if it’s not what God wants you to do, you won’t be completely successful in it. Why? Because true success is not in what you accomplish; it is in doing what God told you to do.
Any idea that isn’t contrary to the Word of God, or to obedience to Christ’s wishes for your life, is a God idea. Perhaps something has already begun to happen within you. Are you starting to think differently? Are you beginning to dream? Are you able to believe in the possibility of things you never thought possible before? Then you have started to catch the vision for your life, so don’t sit down there and die. Take that step! People fail because they don’t know what they want to succeed in. Prolonged indecisiveness is a vision-killer, and it also drains the joy out of life. A person who is indecisive is unsettled; he’s on shaky ground. Most people make the mistake of believing that the main goal in life is to stay busy. Yet this way of thinking is a trap. Busyness does not necessarily equal progress; staying busy does not necessarily mean that you are heading toward a specific destination.
Don’t ever believe that your failure are greater than what God gave you birth to do. Sometimes, memories can prevent you from seeing miracles because they keep you stuck in the past. Whatever God is causing you to dream is a revelation of your ability. If you are operating by sight, you see the problems and challenges all around you. You see how many bills you have to pay; you see that your company (ministry) is downsizing; you see things that threaten your security. Whether words are spoken or written, they are full of creative power. DON’T SIT DOWN THERE AND DIE. TAKE THAT STEP!
Please, if this piece of exhortation has blessed your life. Please get in touch with me or send in your comment. And for more information you can contact me at

Hello Friends,
You must learn to train for what God has already told you is coming. You don’t need to worry about whether or not it is going to come. If He has promised that it is coming, then it is. Yet you must stay on course if you’re going to follow the work God has called you to do. Stay in the seat where God has placed you, put on your seat belt, and hang on until He brings the vision/miracle to pass. It will be realized, but you must wait on Him
We ask God, “Why do I need to go this way? I don’t like this route.” He answers that the route is going to do two things for us:
Develop our character.
Produce responsibility in us
We think that, just because we’re going through difficult times, God has stopped working to fulfill our purposes. Yet they are still coming. God is working on us, preparing us for our purposes through the process. However, we often sit back and say, “Why is it taking so long? Why do I have to go through all this?” That attitude of complaint and lack of faith is exactly what God is trying to work out of you. He doesn’t want you to go into your promised land dragging bad attitudes behind you. He is working for your good.
Submit yourself to your job, learn what you’re supposed to learn, and get all the knowledge that you can from it, because you’re going to move on in a little while remember that your miracle is on the way.
Please, if this piece of exhortation has blessed your life. Please get in touch with me or send in your comment. And for more information you can contact me at

How is the work of the ministry? How is the Family? Are you breaking new grounds? What are the new things you are into? Do you have any fresh vision? Any up coming program? I am interested in knowing your well being.
I just want to say hold my hands and let's cross the bridge together. Great glory lies ahead of us. I am certain that in Jesus name you will not fail.
I am not doing bad. We just celebrated our 8th Anniversary in the month of July and during the month of August 2010 I have been teaching on a series I titled, 'Living Above Lack'. It was a wonderful series. And on the 24th August, 2010 I will be in Liberia for a healing and deliverance conference. I will be miinistering at two different place and also I will be privilege to meet some new friend. Of which some are on this network .e.g. pastor Jacob M, Pastor James Payne and many others.
The work of the kingdom is great but the power of love and kingdom minded relationship will enable us to do exploit. I am a crazy lover of God and I hate to see God's people oppress, afflicted or living below God's plan and program for them as a result of ignorance.
I will want to stop here by saying I am a blessing you must not miss. Hold My Hand, we can build that work together in Jesus name.
I am looking forward to hear from you. And if there is any up coming program you will like me to be one of your guest speaker or preacher, be free to inform me. I will gladly honour it. Stay bless.

Hello Brethren,
I always mention you in my prayers. How is the work of the ministry? Family? And everything in general? I know you are growing from strength to strength. We just concluded our 31 Days of Power Fasting - Prayer Conference titled: Unstoppable Lifting. The climax of the program was our 8th year anniversary celebration as a centre.
In Acts 3:6, Peter told the crippled man at the beautiful gate to rise up and walk. Brethren, I will be in Liberia to minister at Bethel World Outreach Ministries, Gbarnga and Christ Resources Miinistries, Monrovia both in liberia. And I will be opportune to meet with other ministry friends on this network in person .e.g. Rev. Jacob Meiporkoyah, Bishop Peters Wolobah, Bishop Meltons and many other friends.
Join me in prayers for God's manifest power and presence to be visible to heal, deliver and save during my visit and ministration. I will be in Liberia from Tuesday 24th August - Thursday 2nd September. The kingdom work is great and required our commimtment. Brethren, let's raise men out of their pit, shame, lack, poverty, bondage in the name of Jesus.
I am looking forward to be a blessing to God's work in your hand, in any of your forth coming conference or program. I am a gift you can't miss. I am expecting your invitation. Put that program together. And I am sure that God's grace upon my life will bless His kingdom work in your hand and the brethren and the church will not remain the same. I am looking forward to hear from you.

It’s Time to Lead by Example,
Pastors its time to be the head and stop ministering as the tail. So many pastors and their wives are contacting me because they are explaining how they’re ministering while their divorce. I just heard Dr Wanda Davis teach a message where she said she was at a hotel and she went to get something to eat so they recommended a restaurant that was in the building. When she went to the restaurant she asked the question, could she put the bill on her room and the waiter said while we’re together we are not connected. So many pastors and their wives are together in ministries but they’re not connected in the Spirit. So therefore what’s happening in the pulpit is affecting what is going on in the pews. Pastors you spend so much time ministering on Malachi where it talks about titles and offering but you don’t minister on Malachi 2:16 that says God hates divorce. If you get this CD let this message start to change your life, and you’ll begin to effectively change what happens in the pew because as the oil flows from Aaron’s beard what happens to the head will affect the body. Get this CD TODAY, it changed my marriage and it changed my ministry don’t let the devil destroy what God put together. Nobody knows that better then you. ORDER TODAY!!!
To order your CD go to http://tinyurl.com/platinumstore, as well as join my Platinum Love Coaching Fanpage.
Be Blessed
Bishop Chaney
