42Jesus kon tell am, “Make yu si naw, yor faith don heal yu.” 43At wons, di man bigin si and e kon follow Jesus, dey praiz God. Wen di pipol si wetin happen, dem kon bigin praiz God.

 

Desperation! If we wan talk true, this world full with people wey dey desperate. But the wahala be say, many of us dey cry for the wrong things. Desperation na when person get serious need or strong desire for something or somebody, and e no easy to get am.

All of us don reach that point for life wey we dey desperate. Dem dey talk say desperate time dey call for desperate action, and many times we ready do anything just to get wetin we want.

But for Bible, desperation na when person dey hungry and dey seek God with all e heart. No be panic or fear, but na serious chase and full trust in God, like Psalm 42:1 talk.

Desperation fit make person do anything just to comot from that condition. You go forget pride, you go humble yourself just to reach God. But sometimes, people go follow wrong road because of the pressure, and that road fit lead to destruction like Proverbs 14:12 talk.

Wetin you dey desperate for? 

Everybody get one area for life wey dem dey desperate—spiritual, physical, mental, financial, emotional, and so on. Sarah too dey desperate for pikin, and instead make she wait for God promise, she try help God for Genesis 16:2.

Instead make you dey suffer for outside like say you no get hope (Jesus don already suffer for us outside the gate—Hebrews 13:12), make your desperation push you to cry to Jesus for mercy and help.

Wetin dey worry you? Wetin you dey desperate for? 

God know say one day you go reach that desperate point, na why He talk say make you “come” for Matthew 11:28-30. So why you no use your desperate voice?

Sometimes, people dey look for help outside God because:

- Dem don wait too long,

- Dem no believe say God go answer,

- Or dem feel say their matter too small to disturb God.

But even people wey no know God before, when dem cry to Him in desperation, God still answer. Like Eliezer for Genesis 24:12, when he pray make God help am find wife for Isaac—God answer am.

For Exodus 2:23, the Israelites cry because of their suffering, and God hear dem.

Desperate people no dey give up. Like the woman wey dey bleed for 12 years—she push through crowd just to touch Jesus for Mark 5:25–34.

Blind Bartimaeus too no gree keep quiet. He don wait long, but when he hear say Jesus dey pass, he shout loud: “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” 

And Jesus stop for am. You too fit cry reach Jesus where you dey.

You desperate reach to cry to the Master? 

Desperation dey knock until door open. 

No let fear, sin, pain, or ignorance drown your voice. 

Let your voice of prayer, praise, and faith rise until Jesus reach you.

Desperation na full surrender—“God, I no fit do this without you.” 

And God too dey wait make you call Him.

Come. Cry to Him if you dey desperate

PRAYER: Lord of mercy and grace, I dey cry to you. Show me your face, O Lord, and lift me from this desperate condition in Jesus name, amen.

IT IS NEVER TOO LATE TO START AGAIN!

Job 17:10-11 GW   "But now, all of you, come and try again! I won’t find one wise man among you.  My days are passing by. My plans are broken. My dreams are shattered."[10]   Life may require us to start again—and it’s never too late to start over. One of life’s certainties is that everyone will experience failure at something at some point. Life is never an unbroken series of victories. Setbacks, losses, and sometimes defeat will happen and may overwhelm us. Defeat may be thrust upon us by circumstance or by others, or we may defeat ourselves by our own thoughts and actions. When this happens, some give up, some persist until they succeed, and others are willing to start over again. Luke 7:11-15 gives the account of the widow of Nain, on her way to bury her only son, crying, distraught after losing another close family member. On the way, Jesus saw her, had compassion, and acted.  The woman must have thought, "Is He kidding? Does He know what I've been t...

DIVINE VISION!

Jeremiah 1:1-11 NASB The words of Jeremiah the son of Hilkiah, of the priests who were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin, [2] to whom the word of the Lord came in the days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign. [3] It came also in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, until the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah the son of Josiah, king of Judah, until the exile of Jerusalem in the fifth month. [4] Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying, [5] “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, And before you were born I consecrated you; I have appointed you as a prophet to the nations.” [6] Then I said, “Oh, Lord God! Behold, I do not know how to speak, Because I am a youth.” [7] But the Lord said to me, “Do not say, ‘I am a youth,’ Because everywhere I send you, you shall go, And all that I command you, you shall speak. [8] “Do not be afraid of them, For I am with you to save you,” declares the Lord. [9] Then the Lord stretch...

RESISTANCE FROM STEPPING INTO PURPOSE!

John 16:33 AMPC I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace and confidence. In the world you have tribulation and trials and distress and frustration; but be of good cheer [take courage; be confident, certain, undaunted]! For I have overcome the world. [I have deprived it of power to harm you and have conquered it for you.]   Stepping into your God-given purpose is one of the most powerful decisions you will ever make. But it is also one of the most resisted. The Bible makes it clear that whenever God calls a person, opposition rises—externally, internally, and spiritually. Jesus Himself tells us that trials will come, but His victory gives us courage and peace. Every believer must understand this: resistance is not a sign that you’re in the wrong place; it is often proof that you’re stepping into the right one. Everyone called by God faces resistance! Throughout Scripture, the moment people stepped into divine purpose, they faced pushback. ...
