PIDGIN GEAR CHANGE!

Isaya 43:18–19 “But God sey, “Make una nor tink about wetin dey happen or put una mind for wetin don happen before. 19 But naw, I go do new tin; e go happen and una go si am! I go make road for di wildaness kon give una plenty wota for der.

 

Sometimes for believer life, God dey give signal say e don reach time to change gear. Just like motor no fit climb hill, speed, or enter new road if e remain for the same gear, na so person no fit enter new spiritual season if e still dey use old pattern, strength, or mindset. 

Gear change na divine shift, na call to move, think, pray and obey differently.

Paul understand this thing when e write, “When I be pikin, I dey talk like pikin… but when I become man, I comot childish things.” for 1 Corinthians 13:11. 

Growth dey demand transition! 

Destiny dey demand movement! 

Faith dey demand response!

Gear change dey start when God prompt person. God dey announce shift before e show the full picture. 

He tell Abram, “Go… the land wey I go show you.” (Genesis 12:1). 

He tell Moses, “Una don stay for this mountain too long.” (Deuteronomy 1:6). 

He tell Joshua, “Moses my servant don die; now arise…” (Joshua 1:2).

Gear change dey start with divine nudge — one stirring for your spirit, holy dissatisfaction, that sense say the old rhythm no fit again. Na God dey whisper, “Move! Grow! Stretch! Advance!”

You no fit shift forward if you still dey hold tight to wetin dey behind. Gear change dey require letting go! 

Lot wife look back and lose her future (Genesis 19:26). 

Israel dey long for Egypt and delay their promise (Numbers 14:3–4). 

Saul hold onto him own way and lose him throne (1 Samuel 15:22–23).

Gear change dey require release of old habits, fears, excuses, relationships, and old versions of yourself. 

God no dey pour new wine inside old wineskin (Mark 2:22). Shift dey demand surrender.

When motor dey change gear, engine dey adjust to produce the right power for the journey ahead. Na so spiritual gear change dey require fresh strength from God. 

Isaiah 40:31 talk say, “Them wey wait upon the Lord go renew their strength.” Renew mean exchange — drop your own strength make you collect Him own.

Elijah experience am. After he run because of fear, angel feed am and strengthen am for forty‑days journey (1 Kings 19:5–8). 

David experience am when he “strengthen himself in the Lord” before he pursue the Amalekites (1 Samuel 30:6–8). 

Strength for next level no dey come from yesterday supply.

Every shift wey God start dey require obedience step. 

Noah build ark before rain ever show (Genesis 6:22). 

Peter cast net again after night of failure (Luke 5:5). 

The widow pour oil into empty vessels before miracle show (2 Kings 4:1–7).

Obedience na the clutch wey dey allow gear to shift. Without obedience, person go remain for neutral — full of potential but no dey go anywhere.

Gear change dey bring acceleration because when God shift your gear, e no dey slow you down. E dey move you enter: Greater clarity,  authority, fruitfulness, spiritual maturity, and greater impact. 

Joseph shift from prisoner to prime minister in one day (Genesis 41:41–43). 

Esther shift from orphan to queen to deliverer (Esther 4:14). 

Early church shift from fear to boldness after Holy Spirit come (Acts 2:1–4).

Divine gear change dey bring divine acceleration — no be by human effort, but by God hand.

To shift gear fit dey uncomfortable. The unknown fit dey fear person. But God say, “I go instruct you and teach you the way wey you go go.” (Psalm 32:8). 

God no dey call person enter new gear without going ahead of am. 

Gear change therefore dey require total trust.

Trust na the fuel wey dey keep you moving. 

Trust say God dey see wetin you no dey see. 

Trust say Him timing perfect. 

Trust say Him plans good. 

Trust say the shift necessary.

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. ...
