PIDGIN RESET!
Isaiah 38:1–8
“ For dat time, King
Hezekaya sick and e don nearly die. So Profet Isaya go meet and tell am, “God
sey make yu range yor propaty well, bikos yu go die. So make yu dey ready to
die.”
2Den King Hezekaya turn face
di wall kon bigin pray sey: 3“Oga God, make Yu remember sey I dey faithful and
loyal as I dey serve Yu. I always dey do wetin Yu wont make I do.” Den e kon
bigin kry well-well.
4So God kommand Profet Isaya
sey, 5“Go back go meet King Hezekaya kon tell am, ‘Mi wey bi yor papa David God
don hear yor prayer and si yor tears; so I go let yu stay for anoda fifteen
years. 6I go save yu and Jerusalem pipol from Assyria king and I go kontinue to
protet di town.’
7“And dis go bi sign to show
sey God go do wetin E promise. 8For di place wey Ahaz build, God go make di sun
shadow go back ten times.” So di shadow kon go back ten times.
Reset na to set something
again, to return am to neutral position. E mean to change how something dey
react or restore am back to the original state—to start again like say e no get history.
Hezekiah cry give God after
dem tell am say he go die. With humble heart, he fall on God mercy for healing,
submit to God values, and ask God make Him meet him need. God hear am and reset
him life and destiny.
Reset dey show God grace and
power because na God dey control destiny. Everything dey His hand, and He dey
respond to our needs as He remain faithful to His covenant.
Even though Hezekiah base
him request for healing on God faithfulness, na God grace and mercy still make
am heal Hezekiah and give am reset.
God show this reset through
the sundial!
The miracle wey happen for
the sundial prove say God na God—na only Him get power to adjust and redirect
nature.
God fit reset our destinies
by shifting things ten steps backward, just like He do for Hezekiah sundial.
Hezekiah sundial no fit move
backward naturally. That kain thing no dey possible except person manually turn
am or use industrial magnetic mechanism. Hezekiah sabi this, na why he ask God
to do something wey no dey possible naturally—to prove say God faithful.
Plenty of us dey face
different scary situations wey fit make person question God authority and
power. But Matthew 19:26 remind us say God dey specialize for impossible
things.
E fit even be say the
sundial stop because e rust from lack of sun exposure. Na so many people—even
believers—don stuck for life, marriage, and different situations because dem no
dey expose themselves to the light and Word of God according to Psalm 119:105.
When we no allow God light enter our life and His Word direct us, we go dey
stuck like rusty dial, no fit move smoothly and graciously through life.
Hezekiah see chance ask God for reset—we too fit do the same.
Joshua too get reset—not
only for him life but for the whole tribe of Israel for Joshua 10—when he ask
the God of impossible make He suspend the natural working of the sun and moon,
give dem chance to change the direction of the battle in their favour.
Hezekiah no even ask for
anything specific—not even healing. He just ask God make He remember how he don
walk faithfully with Him. And God, wey dey see the thoughts and intents of our
hearts according to Hebrews 4:13, see him heart and offer am reset.
The Lord reset the sundial
by moving am ten degrees backward. Times and seasons dey God hand, and to move
something ten times backward or forward no be problem for Him. God fit move you
from zero to infinity inside twinkle of eye.
God don dey use the number
ten from the very beginning to show completion and perfection of His laws,
principles, and order. For example:
- For Genesis 1, God talk
“said” ten times.
- He give the Ten
Commandments to reset Israel judicial system for Exodus 20.
- He give us the law of
tithing (ten percent) for Deuteronomy 14:22–24.
- The Passover lamb dey
selected on the tenth day of the first month to reset Passover for Exodus 12:3,
and the tenth day of the seventh month for atonement.
God fit reset that
situation, and He don already get reset plan for you—if you go ask.

faith?

impossible situation I dey trust God to reverse like Hezekiah sundial?
