“Today is October 8th, 2023. Today is 35 years ago we got married at The Christian Church, Ilesha, and had our Marriage Reception at the Hall of Ilesha Grammar School.

I remember one of my big Aunty who was an Anglican minister got me the Boys Brigade who beat the drums and match before the Groom’s Car as they led my wife and I to the Reception Hall after the Holy Joining.

I remember, I sat in the Mercedeze Benz 230 Car with her and the car was going slowly behind the drumming and the matching Boys’ Brigade.

I remember I was two years old on Full time drama ministry as I matched to the Altar. I remember I looked ahead of me with Uncertain Certainty of the ministry that was so young. 

The hall was packed full of people, my people, relatives, friends, Mount Zion members and drama groups members.

We were sitting on the high table and we saw people eating and drinking as the Reception was going on.

My Big Sister was delighted at what God was now doing, even though she had resisted initially at my going on full-time – (the emotional concern of most of our parents when we started ministry – the thought of the future).

But now she was happy, trusting God too for the future of her Only Brother and his wife. 

Then, the food finished. The people were more than the food provided.

We never knew all these, because we were on the High Table. 

But we heard later, that as our brethren were worried on where to get more food, a family member had come with big warmers of food for her and her friends and had locked them up in the boot of her car. 

She called the servers to carry the warmers and meat and food flooded the hall again. People ate and ate and drank at the Wedding Ceremony of a young couple who had just gone on full time drama ministry. 

The food finished and the hall was flooded with food again. Just as the wine finished at Cana of Galilee and Jesus flooded the marriage with wine again. 

NO MARRIAGE CAN HAVE A SMOOTH SAILING. THERE WILL ALWAYS BE UPS AND DOWNS. 

There will always be wine at the beginning and some couples’ wine never lasted more than two years before they ran out of wine and begin to drink diluted and watery wine in their marriage. 

Some marriage never went beyond one year before they ran out of Wine of Marriage and they begin to manage their marriage. 

BUT THERE IS ONLY ONE LAW THAT GUIDE A SUCCESSFUL MARRIAGE LIFE AMIDST ALL STORMS AND WHIRLWINDS: 

John 2:4-5

4] Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come. 

[5] His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it . 

OBEYING HIS VOICE AND HEARKENING TO HIS COMMAND HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE RULE TO A SUCCESSFUL MARRIAGE LIFE. 

If you desire to enjoy His Fresh Wine all the time, His Presence, His Miracles and Blessings perpetually in your Marriage, “Whatever He tells you to do, JUST DO IT”

In Your Marriage Life, Obey His voice all the time. 

Then, you can always enjoy His supply of FRESH WINE of Miracles, Blessing, Favour, Grace, and Prosperity all the time. 

If the Servant had not obeyed His voice by fetching water into the empty pots, then, there will be no Miracles of Fresh Wine. 

PUT OBEDIENCE TO THE VOICE OF GOD INTO YOUR MARRAIGE AND YOU WILL REAP FRESH WINE OF MIRACLES AND BLESSINGS CONTINUALLY IN YOUR MARRIAGE LIFE. 

That has been our Secrets in our 35 Years of Marriage. And the Secrets of the Marriage of great men of God, and our fathers whose marriage are very successful

“Whatever He tells you to do, Just do it.”

MKE BAMILOYE.
