Happy anniversary

It was during a time of seek ye first the kingdom. It was a time of fellowship with the Lord, I muttered to the effect of He would have to provide a husband if He wanted me to marry. Left it at that and kept seeking first. A month later I got confirmation, just that it would be soon...no face, no characteristics. Well, after all...my God knows in full detail the desires of my heart. See, I'm not your typical social bird, I like my place of abode well enough to stay in it. I was invited to go bowling by Ogaga and I was in agreement as soon as I got the invite. The Spirit of the Lord picked my outfit, yes He can do that. I later found out that my outfit, down to my puffy hair stood out. Mayowa Baiyeri had invited my heart and as soon as he walked in he went to say hi and was by my side the whole evening chatting...turned out we attended the same school back home in Nigeria. Turned out we also lived on the same street. #watchGodwork. We chatted after that for days that turned into weeks. One Saturday morning, the Lord graciously opened my eyes and I had a knowing that he was the one. Weeks turned to months and one afternoon, my joy got a ring and proposed. I laughed, I have different reactions to some situations. I was so happy. #Hecausedmetolaugh I prayed a prayer of surrender to my merciful Father, of it is of you, let it be, if not....you get the gist. It's dangerous to go into an agreement without the Lord. The Lord released to me the Word that kept me in times that I needed my head to be lifted up. Being a quiet person, I was thinking about a wedding of 75 to 100 people...after all who did I know. Here's a revelation.. your wedding is not about you. Those of you that were there would testify that the church was all the way filled with friends, family from out of state and country...the Lord brought them. Henry Chuks and bukky came from Arkansas. Lilian Obianuju Onyenobi came from Houston. Dunni Dehinwa another classmate from Nigeria, I almost fell when I saw them. Some people I forgot to invite, and others I didn't invite for fear of overfilling the hall. Oh, Amber Nicole-Emem Jones came in full African regalia, so beautiful. She caught my bouquet. Latrice Sillers was in gele along with tirade and hazel. Chichi Thelma Ikwuegbu was a life saver as a bridesmaid. Doyin oh, Mado Assani, Kemi, Torkwase Ijir and Leslie Ijeoma Chukwuleta were so pretty that I had to check my own outfit n stuff... See Jayden and uche handling things. Chioma baby was looking so beautiful, she was mini me. Morenike Okungbowa thanks for allowing her to beautify everything. Chima F Chukwuleta all the way from California. Too many names. Mrs Sijuwade was like saving dew from heaven. She is blessed to a level of awe. That's a child of the most High and do you think that my Father in heaven is not seeing what she is doing. Sister Olufunke Babade Omotoso was quick to beautify the position of flower girls and junior bridesmaids with her beautiful daughters. Kimberly Jaiyeola, Sandra, Chioma and my Adaeze, and Simi. So beautiful, you have never seen an array of heavenly beauties as the Lord shewed at my wedding. Blaze Bc Aramide Eseyin ogaga, barede, Alex Xander III and mayowa looking so sharp you could cut it. The annointing in the house was heavy, I tell you. At some points, I almost fell. All the songs I wanted to glorify my Father with that I couldn't pass across to the choir, God ordered all of them from their mouths. #wontHedoit. The day was so heavenly that it could only be God. After all He paid for the wedding, proveded the groom and bride...how wont He complete His marvelous work. Victory house and HOTR helped so much, it was like a video of what Christianity is supposed to be. Anniversary was awesome, the cruise was delayed2 days and so we got a nice refund and still got to cruise. Do you know the cake never showed up, did you know over 430 people showed up for the reception at a reception hall for 300 people. I was thinking it was too much space. Thank God I moved it from the hall of 220 seats. The owner of the hall was threatening to shut the reception down, I never laughed so well, how can you shut down the Lord's wedding. Everything went awesomely well. It was like I was on fast forward. Married life was sweet at honeymoon and then the enemy put up his ugly head. The devil does not sleep. Thank God for the HOLY SPIRIT OF THE LIVING GOD. When the enemy comes in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord raises a standard against them. No weapon fashioned against me shall prosper. The Holy Spirit is so awesome, He is so quick to help all the time I ask. Sometimes I forget to ask, but He had already provided a solution before I could realize there was an issue. It will be a year tomorrow and I won't have service where I'm going. I would like to say that if not for the Lord on our side, the enemy would have chewed us up and spat us out like chaff. The Lord kept us under His wings, and though 10000 fell at our right side, it did not touch us or come near. Instead of the counsel of the enemy, the Lord delivered our enemies to our feet. He made us laugh, He made us like those that dreamed. An embarrassment of testimonies. My God is mighty in this place and so I'm giving it all back to Him, all the praise and glory that He is worthy of. My loving Father, beside Him there is no other, none can stand where He stands, He rules alone.....rightly and justly. Jesus I love you so, the world can't understand it. I really really really appreciate you and need you to 've glorified in this. While I was yet a sinner, you died to save me. What kind of love is this. Thanks for my marriage and my husband, thanks for my beautiful family, thanks because You are in it with us. All glory to you Almighty God forever and ever.
