General Overseer of the Calvary Bible Church, Pastor Olumide Emmanuel has shared advice for married men seeking successful marriages.

Speaking during a service, Pastor Emmanuel noted that submission in a marriage is not solely a requirement for women.

The motivational speaker explained that a Christian marriage should not be based on "culture" but on the teachings of the kingdom.

The cleric urged men to respect their wives’ opinions and avoid claiming superior judgment.

He said, "Men, I will tell you for free, respect a woman's sensitivity if you want to do well in life.

"Ask any married man that will be honest with you, there are things that if we did not listen to our wife, we'd be in trouble by now. And there are times that we didn't listen, we enter trouble.

"So if you're a young person now, don't let Africa kill you. 'I'm a man of this house, I'm a man of this house, you can't tell me what to do'. Forget that nonsense.

"Marriage is not an African culture, it’s a kingdom culture and in the kingdom, the Bible says, submitting yourself one to another. Mutual submission is a kingdom agenda for the marriage.

"So there are times you need to submit to your wife. Submit to your woman."
