PIDGIN PRESS FORWARD!

Philippians 3:14-15 “My brodas and sistas, I nor look mysef like sey I don get evritin wey I wont. Bikos I dey tink of only one tin wey bi: To forget di tins wey don pass kon dey porshu di ones wey dey front 14and as I put my mind for dis tins, I dey try to get di prize wey bi life for heaven; prize wey make God koll us thru en pikin, Jesus Christ. 15So wi wey don mature for Christ, make wi get dis kind mind. But if una dey tink difren tins, I bilive sey God go show una di trut.

 

We gats dey press forward for life, no make we dey stuck for one place where life just happen to us. Press forward! Forward march! Na wetin we sabi hear for army, but e still apply to how we dey follow Jesus. To press forward mean say you dey move ahead with your work or goal, forget wetin happen before but make you learn from am, and no gree make anything stop you from reach your goal. E also mean to look front steady, dey press forward with hope for better future.

Other words for pressing forward na advancement, development, growth, improvement, promotion, and to dey ahead.

Press forward! Make you forget the tins wey dey backside you—make you no dey let other people control how you dey behave or think. If some people dey waste time, we no get time like that because time na life and e dey run fast, like say eternity dey near, and everything dey on the line.

Sometimes, life and wahala dey make some of us just dey march for one corner, no dey move forward. We dey think say if we just stand still, problem go waka or magic go happen without us doing anything. The Bible talk say no be like that, we gats dey try, sweat, put muscle and nerve because race of life and eternity no easy.

We gats dey press in and press forward to reach our target. Truth and righteousness path na straight, and we gats follow am if we want to see all God plan for us come true, as e talk for Deuteronomy 5:32.

Even when wahala come, we no suppose gree make distraction stop our progress. Proverbs 4:25 talk say make we no shift our eye from the right path. If wahala come, we go find solution wey go make us press forward, no go left or right.

Sometimes, we dey stuck because no clear way dey or we no know how to take move. But no need fear—God talk for Psalm 32:8 say He go teach us how, when, and where to press forward, if we focus on Him, no on ourselves as Proverbs 3:5-6 talk.

You don long too much for one place?

God talk for Deuteronomy 1:6, “You don stay for this place long enough.” Long enough. Time don reach to move forward. Start to dey move and keep moving. No gree make anybody or anything stop you.

No gree make past experience or condition make you afraid to move forward. No even gree make past blessings or favour keep you for one spot, or stay there dey hope for more when God get better thing for front. Israelites stay for one place nearly one year because of past blessing—God no like dat. E dey always give us new place and new land to take.

Because Jesus na the way and the truth as John 14:6 talk, we no dey walk for unknown path; na path God approve.

Get confidence as 1 John 5:14 talk say if you ask God anything wey be according to Him, He go give you am and everything wey go glorify Him.

If we choose to follow Jesus, our main focus gats be the work of God kingdom as Luke 9:62 talk.

So, begin dey move, and keep pressing forward!

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. ...
