A catholic priest has cautioned singletons to ignore prophecies concerning whom they should marry. According to him, whom you marry is solely your decision because God doesn’t choose spouses for people.
Rev Fr Ugwu shared this piece of advice after a distraught young man sought counsel concerning a dilemma. According to the young man, he has received a prophecy that his girlfriend of three years is not “the one”.
This is how the conversation went:
Him: “Good morning Padre
How are you today? I have something bothering me.”
“I am into a relationship with someone who I hope soonest to get married to after my service n yesterday a message came via prophecy that she isn’t the one.”
“The relationship is 3years. I have built my world around her, and I can’t start thinking of walking out of it. I find her 90% compatible, and I love her like say tomorrow no dey.”
Me: So where did the prophecy come from?
Him: “A charismatic sis.”
Me: So how can I be of help to you? Or how do I come in?
Him: “Ur advice on what to look out for in marital choice.”
In response, he wrote, “Avoid prophecy in choosing who to marry. Every choice comes with its consequences…Good or bad. God is not going to be the one to choose a wife for you.
“If you want to let the girl you have dated go, let it never be because of any so-called unsolicited prophecy. Let it be your choice. In the same way, if you decide to marry her, let it never be because there was a prophecy for you to marry, so and so. It is all your choice to make. Not even God can make it for you.”
