PIDGIN TEST BIRTHS TESTIMONY!
Psalm 71:15–16
“I go tell evribody about
yor raitiousness and evriday, I go always dey tok about di pawa wey Yu take dey
save, even doh I nor really fit esplain how e bi. 16 My God wey get pawa, I go
praiz Yu bikos of all di great tins wey Yu don do. .I go tell evribody sey na
only Yu dey do good.
Our text remind us say
trials no be punishment but opportunity for growth and to know God better.
Without test, testimony no go fit exist. Bible don show again say challenges
dey refine our faith and show us who God really be.
Revelation 14:12 talk say
believers suppose endure hardship with patience, obey God command and keep
their faith for Christ strong. Every testimony no be to make us shine, but to
give God glory.
All through Bible,
testimonies dey show God attributes — Him power, justice, goodness, providence,
wisdom, love and grace. Anytime we testify, we dey declare the side of God wey
we don experience for our wahala. Trials dey teach us how to depend on His grace
and make us get character like Christ. Test no be divine punishment as many
people think; na God way to reveal Himself give us. God already sabi who we be
— na we the test dey help, make we see His power and presence, so that we go
fit share wetin we don learn.
You fit dey face test,
challenge or disappointment now? No forget say na inside those moments
testimonies dey grow. Psalm 119:46 talk say make we declare God work boldly,
even before kings. Testimonies no be just story; dem be memorials of God
faithfulness.
For Old Testament, Noah,
Abraham, Joseph, and Moses all keep God testimony. Moses encounter with God
turn am to living testimony of deliverance. In story dey show say God still dey
divide Red Sea and rescue Him people. The story of Hannah for 1 Samuel remind
us say persistent prayer no dey waste — God dey answer in Him time. Job even
when he dey suffer say, “I know say my Redeemer live” (Job 19:25). All these
examples show say even inside pain, we still fit testify about God goodness.
Your testimony dey born from
your test. The pain, disappointment and stress wey test bring dey produce
something powerful — one experience wey dey glorify God and strengthen others. Psalm
119:2 talk say, “Blessed be those wey keep Him testimonies and seek Him with
all their heart.” To keep God testimony mean to live obedient life and to
declare God works. E also mean make you gather “memorial stones” of gratitude
like Israel do, so that future generation go see and ask, “WetIn these stones
mean?” Then you fit tell them, “Them dey remind us say God faithful.”
No matter how hard the test
be, testimony go always bigger. Trials fit painful and heavy, but dem go still
lead to vindication and glory for God. When e look like God don forget you,
remember John 4:4 — Jesus go purposely find that Samaritan woman. For your
wilderness, He go find you too. Even when people set trap for you like for John
9, God go still turn am to testimony wey go bring glory to Him name.
Test and testimony! Your
test dey born your testimony!
Which test you don go
through this year wey turn to better testimony for you?
Which trial, challenge or
pain you don face wey fit produce your testimony?
We meet Hannah again for 1
Samuel. Her testimony be say God still dey answer prayer. You get that kind
testimony? Say no matter how long you pray, when God time reach, He go answer?
So, how we go keep our
testimony?
By declaring wetin God don
do and walking in Him strength.
Verse 16 talk say, “I go
waka in the strength of the Lord God.” That strength na wetin dey help us
endure test and come out victorious. Verse 15 add say, “My mouth go declare
Your righteousness.” After the labour pain of testing, testimony go born —
story wey everybody go hear, even though dem no see your struggle.
Your testimonies na your memorial
stones. You go dey gather them and heap them for thanksgiving. Keep heaping!
Because when the enemy dey try do wetin e wan do, you go still dey heap your
stones of memory. So that when people come see am and ask, “Why you gather
these stones?” You go tell them, “Na to testify about God faithfulness.”
Your testimony no be just
for you alone; e na witness to God power and grace. Keep singing of Him
goodness, even when devil dey try make your test heavy. Remember: every trial
na temporary, but every testimony dey eternal. Continue to gather your memorial
stones, declare His works, and let your life dey shout, “No mountain too high,
no wahala too big for my God!”
