Senior pastor, Daystar Christian Centre, Lagos Sam Adeyemi and his wife Nike on Saturday renewed their wedding vows as they clocked 28 years together as a couple.
Like he usually does, Adeyemi took to Instagram with beautiful words for the woman he referred to as the answer to his prayer.
“Adenike Omoge, It’s 28 years today since we said ‘I do’. Reliving that day still gives me an adrenaline rush,” he wrote.
“My prayer had been guided by Proverbs 31:30: ‘Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing: but a woman who fears the LORD, she shall be praised.’ I said; ‘LORD, give me someone you can talk to’, being conscious of the futility of trying to control or change another in marriage. You are the answer to the prayer. You combine the fear of God with charm and beauty.”
Adeyemi added: “What an incredible journey it has been. Committing to prioritise serving God and others has come with a lot of sacrifices, so I pray for the LORD to bless you with rapturous joy, peace, health, and everything your heart desires. I LOVE YOU TO ETERNITY. Happy Anniversary to us.”
Also taking to Instagram, his wife called him the “husband of my youth.”
Then she added: “Our hearts beating for God’s love and will to be enthroned in us, in our children, family and nations has caused us intense pressure in our 28years of marriage. God has revealed strength through it all. You are kind, deep and, I like how you care for me and our children. May the Lord keep blessing our walk and work, keep you, keep us and ours from the eyes of the wicked.”
Nike said she would keep letting him know he is “enough” and also needs rest.
The couple are blessed with three children.
