Marriage, according to Sonnie Badu, should never be entered blindly. The US based Ghanaian gospel musician and pastor is urging women to scrutinize a man’s sense of direction before agreeing to walk down the aisle with him.
In a video shared on Instagram, he stressed that vision is not optional for a prospective husband. In his view, a man who lacks clarity about his purpose will inevitably stall the life of the woman who chooses to follow him.
“As a woman, pray that you find a husband with vision, and be careful how you follow. If you find a husband without vision, pray that he discovers his vision. Because as long as you follow him, God will hear him. So if he doesn’t have a vision, then he is delaying your life.
“I was doing wedding marriage counseling, and I told the husband, ‘Sir, do you have a purpose and a vision? If you don’t have a purpose and a vision, don’t marry. Because your wife must live her dream within your purpose and your vision,” he said.

Drawing from his experience in marriage counseling, Badu explained that a woman’s aspirations should complement the man’s calling. Where there is no shared direction, he believes the relationship is fundamentally misplaced.
He cautioned women whose ambitions clash with their partner’s purpose to reconsider the union altogether, insisting that compatibility goes beyond emotion.
“And if you are a wife and your dreams are not in alignment with his purpose and vision, then you are not his wife, you are somebody else’s. Then please, don’t waste your time. You’re not his rib; you are somebody else’s rib. You met out of emotions.
“You must find yourself in his gift. Find your expression in it. As long as God remains God, a woman can never lead. I’m telling you, it is biblical. But a woman can be the brain behind the man as he leads,” Sonnie Badu stressed.
