       INTRODUCTION     

 It is a great thing to have a relationship with Christ. You are in a godly relationship. If you have a relationship with Christ, it is absurd for you to have a relationship with someone who does not know Christ.           

Amos 3:3 says ‘can two walk together except they agree'. You can’t date someone to change the person but you can only advise, pray or intercede for the person, that he or she comes to know Christ, not you.     

As a Christian/believer, for you to enjoy your relationship, you must be in a relationship with another believer.   

THE REAL QUALITIES OF YOUR PARTNER      
“He is nice”, “she is a good person”, “he is cheerful”, “she is lovely”, and “he is handsome”.... Galatians 5:22 says ‘the fruits of the spirit includes love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control, against these things, there is no law.’ so being nice, lovely, good or cheerful isn’t the fruit of the spirit. Check for the real thing; no matter how nice he is, he can beat you up and nicely get you a nice gift. You think she is so lovely, is she as lovely as Mariah Carey, Jennifer Lopez or Hally berry, do they have good marriages? 
Being lovely is good, but check for the real things. 
Proverbs 31:30 says ‘beauty is in vain, fear is deceitful, but the woman that fears the Lord shall be praised’   

HOW TO SPICE UP YOUR RELATIONSHIP ASIDES SEX       
It is very difficult to say no to sex especially in this sexual tempting and pervert world.
·         Pray together: it is the foundation of every godly relationship. 
·         Study the word of God together: feed your spirit man with the word of God.
·         Ensure your purpose in life is okay with your partner. 
·         Go out on dates: relationships are both spiritual and physical.
·         Visitation: visit each other, face to face communications are very important.
SEX IS NOT LOVE

SEX is SEX - LOVE is LOVE 

Sex and Love are not the same thing.  The moment you introduce sex into your relationship as a single person, you have already destroyed the real purpose of sex. Sex is from GOD and it is for a GODLY seed. The sperm is a token of your virtue and your seed, don’t waste it AROUND. Compatibility and Purpose helps to develop your relationship not SEX. Proverbs 6:26 says ‘Fornication will reduce a man to a piece of bread for the adulterer seek for the precious soul’. 

CONCL USION: SEX is not a SPICE to your relationship, rather it is a TRAP to hunt down your precious soul. SEX in MARRIAGE is a BLESSING. God will enable us and give us the grace to obey his commands in Jesus name….. AMEN
