These \u201cboy-men\u201d flee from people who demand that they buckle up to behave as men. They love to be admired, pampered, respected and cared for. They refuse hardship and flee from responsibility. They are too soft and are always seeking for cheap comforts and the easy life. That\u2019s why they rarely want the responsibility of marriage or fatherhood but want the privileges of husbandhood. They flirt with sisters but fear to make commitments. They cannot stomach opposition and fear to carry the weight of managing a wife.

Pray that men will rise from boys, for the salvation of our world require men to manifest. Men, pray for our boys. Pray that they reject and shake off all \u201cboyhoodness\u201d when it\u2019s the season to manifest manhood. May God divinely interfere with this pandemic of soft \u201cmilk-loving\u201d boys who refuse to embrace the mantle of manhood.
