‘Don’t marrying under pressure’, Pastor Faith Oyedepo warns singles

 Pastor Faith Oyedepo has advised single people against marrying under pressure, Topnaija.ng reports.

In a recent social media post, Faith Oyedepo wife of the founder of the Living Faith Church Worldwide said people who hurry to get married “end up in regret”.

The cleric also argued that finding a good-looking spouse may not guarantee the union’s success.

“Those of you who are still single, don’t marry under pressure. Don’t manage to marry and don’t hurry to marry. Because those who do end up in regret. You just understand that a really good catch may not make a really good match.

“If you’re in a relationship with an unbeliever, no matter how long that relationship has been on, the earlier you put a stop to it the better so it will not disrupt your glorious destiny.”

David and Faith tied the knot in 1982.

During their 38th wedding anniversary in 2020, they both pledged to love each other forever.

“The journey thus far has been awesome with you by my side. You have been the true definition of a virtuous woman,” David told his wife.

In March 2023, Faith recalled how she saw blood flowing from her nearly four decades ago when she was pregnant with her first son and then told her husband that she “had a miscarriage”.

She said, in his reaction, Oyedepo boldly told her that “you can’t have a miscarriage” before asking to be served his meal.

Faith said her husband’s statement “activated the spirit of faith and the pregnancy was sustained.”

While celebrating their 40th anniversary in May 2023, Faith urged people to embrace a marriage centered around Christ.
