At the Bliss Experience 2024 on Friday, March 1st, the atmosphere was filled with love as Nigerian Gospel artist Moses Bliss opened up about the serendipitous events that led to him meeting his wife, Marie Wiseborn.
While the popular belief was that Marie caught Moses’s eye by dancing to his song “Miracle No Dey Tire Jesus,” Moses shared that there was more depth to their story.
Reflecting on the past year, Moses recounted how he believed that God had taken notice of his efforts in advancing the kingdom. In his view, celestial forces convened to determine the ideal partner to walk alongside him in his journey.
“And God just looked at me and God say Kai [sic] this boy has tried. This boy has been serving, I want to pamper him, I want to coordinate him, I want to give him direction,” Moses said amidst cheers from the crowd.
The gospel artist mentioned that it took some time for God to choose the perfect companion for him. However, once the decision was made, everything fell into place for his benefit.
“After the angels had walked through the earth, they said there is someone… Then the angel crossed Africa but could not find [her], entered Europe, and they now stopped at Birmingham, United Kingdom. They went and woke up the sister. They said ‘sister, wake up, do video and dance’,” he added amidst cheers.
He informed the audience that upon introspection, he was convinced that he must have been praying at that moment. After all, it would require a higher force for Marie to rise from bed at 1 am just to record a video of herself dancing.
“And God was on this other side saying ‘Sister Marie, you got to dance now’ and then she woke up, she did not want to dance but because I was still praying, she had to dance, and then when she danced she posted it. She now tagged everybody,” he added.
Moses went on to explain that shortly after he went online, he was utterly astonished by what he saw that he couldn’t help but exclaim “Jesus.” He further shared that for a solid two hours, he found himself continuously scrolling down, captivated by her beauty.
“And finally I sent her a message and guess what, she answered. I now say [sic] ‘can you give me your number’ and she said ‘sorry, can we chat on Instagram,’ so I left her.
The gospel artist mentioned that he brought the matter to prayer. Upon his return online, he found a message from Marie saying, “Happy Sunday, Moses.”
Sharing her perspective, Marie explained that the Holy Spirit prompted her not to ignore Moses’s message but to respond politely.
Although initially hesitant as she didn’t know how to respond, she felt compelled to reply with “Happy Sunday, Moses” as instructed. This simple exchange ultimately led to their union in marriage.
