A 55-year-old bride who is also an evangelist has revealed how she got married as a virgin.
The woman identified as Evangelist Esther Bamiloye said she has never been married before but recently got married to her 62-year-old husband, Isaac Bakare.
Now officially Mrs Bakare, the new bride narrated her ordeal as a single lady in an interview with Punch.
She revealed that the devil tried to stop her when she was of age, to the extent that no man approached her.
According to the evangelist, “The devil had plans to stop me from getting married. When I felt I was ready, there was no man coming for me. I kept waiting on God for a miracle till I reached 55 years.
“I never dated anyone till I got married. Initially, I thought the problem was from my former church and I left, but I give God the glory. He did it for me in my new church and all the barriers are removed.
She added that she was under a lot of pressure considering she still single at her age but she kept believing in God and remained steadfast.
Responding to the questions on the pressures she went through, Bamiloye said, “Not really. But I was overwhelmed at some point. It was simply God’s grace that kept me going. I did not know any man till I got married to my husband. I married as a virgin,” she added.
The new bride stated that God revealed her husband’s personality and picture to her, claiming that her wedding date was also shown to her.
