As a little girl, I have experienced and observed how women in society, enter marriage without having a sword in their hands to fight against issues that confront them in marriage.

What is the sword?

The sword is KNOWLEDGE!

I wondered if it could be ignorance or the fact that their love was blind.

Now as a mature lady, I have come to the realisation that there were few authors who gave little or no concentration towards writing on marriage topics that will educate the girls and women in the society in preparing them for the marriage journey and in the marriage journey.

This definitely leaves them regretting or wishing ‘had I known, in marriage.

However, I am proud of the generation I belong to because we have used our parent’s experiences and regrets as lessons and have become wise in tackling these types of matters that are not most times dealt with.

In our generation, authors from our parent’s generation have used their experiences and regrets to form a story gathered in form of a book to impact handling marriages better in our generation.

Today’s generation is not relying on the “love is blind” tool to fool themselves into entering marriages. But rather, they have started to seek and sought for knowledge in form of books, e-books, tapes, podcasts to upgrade their wisdom and understanding of what marriage is about and ways to handle their marriage.

Despite the fact a lot of us are not ready to make avoidable mistakes, there are others that are still very much ignorant to the reality that they need to be knowledgeable, mentally, and emotionally fit for their marriage.

The sad part of it all is that they fail to accept it before taking the actions geared towards a great marriage.

I can only enlighten you with this write-up that if it is your will to enjoy marriage without regret or suffering, then you need to educate yourselves.

Educating yourself brings light to the path that you should tread upon and the alignment with the right partner in your glorious destiny of marriage.

It is true that marriage is not a child’s play and that is why you need a sense of maturity towards handling your marriage.

Pastor (Mrs) Faith Oyedepo will always say it is compulsory for you to have the knowledge of what marriage is about before entering it.

No marriage is perfect, but it can be perfect in your way of handling them, it can be very easy in your way of managing them, it can be very smooth in your way of conducting yourself in the marriage.

What is your decision today?

You definitely do not want to be found wanting.

They always say our future is now, which means our desired kind of successful marriage is now and we must be ready to covet it now by indulging ourselves in reading and acquiring knowledge to handle the issues that will come along with the marriages we desire.

And with God’s grace, victory will definitely be ours.
