PIDGIN WHY!

Isaiah 45:11 “Di Oga wey bi Israel pipol God wey dey holy; di Pesin wey dey make awa future betta, don sey, “Yu nor get rite to kweshon mi about my shidren or tell mi wetin I go do!

 

How many times we dey ask “why” in a day? Why this? Why that? Why me? Why now? If we really count how many times we dey ask “why,” we go see how much of self, control, and human reasoning dey inside everything we dey do. We dey ask God why things happen, why He allow some situations, why He tell us to obey, why He lead us go direction we no choose. Why, why, why?

But anytime we dey question God from place of doubt, we dey show something deeper: lack of trust. Romans 8:28 tell us say God dey work all things together for our good, but we still dey struggle to believe am. Instead make we rest for Him promise, we dey question Him timing, decisions, and silence. We dey question Him integrity and faithfulness anytime we dey question Him word or wetin we think say be His inaction.

Instead of “why,” our heart suppose learn to say, “Lord, I trust You.”

If God want make we understand something, He go reveal am. Who talk say we must get all the answers even? Who say we must understand everything before we obey? We no need full understanding to follow God. 1 Corinthians 13:9 remind us say our knowledge dey partial and incomplete. We dey see only small piece of the picture, but God dey see the whole story from beginning to end.

Our own responsibility simple: trust God.

Every day, we get choice to either give in to our pain, confusion, and frustration, or lean on God strength and trust Him. Life dey feel unfair sometimes. Situations dey look unjust. People dey disappoint us. Circumstances dey overwhelm us. And our heart go shout, “Why! Why! Why!” But time dey come when we must quiet the questions and surrender to God wisdom.

Bible warn us make we no question God in rebellious or accusatory way. For Romans 9:20–21, Paul quote Jeremiah 18:1–6, remind us say God na the Potter and we be the clay. Clay no dey question the Potter. Psalm 75:7 say God dey decide who rise and who fall. Isaiah 55:8–9 tell us say Him thoughts and ways high pass our own. So when we dey question God decisions, we dey indirectly talk say we doubt Him goodness and we no trust say He get our best interest for heart.

If we no fit trust God, who we wan trust?

Proverbs 3:5–6 suppose become our declaration, especially for hard seasons: “Lord, I trust You. I no go doubt Your plans. I no go fear. I no go try understand everything. I know say You get good plan for me, so I put everything for Your capable hands.”

We no need know why God dey do wetin He dey do. We only need know say He good. Psalm 27:13 assure us say we go see the goodness of the Lord for the land of the living. God character dey trustworthy even when Him methods dey mysterious.

1 Samuel 2:3 describe God as the One wey get unsearchable knowledge and wey Him actions dey guided by perfect wisdom. Psalm 18:30 say Him ways perfect and Him word flawless. How we go question God wey Him understanding no get limit and Him decisions always correct?

Yet human beings dey blame God for everything wey wrong for the world — even the consequences of our own choices. We dey question why society broke, why evil dey increase, why things no dey improve, and why God no dey “fix” everything. But the real question be: why we turn God creation upside down?

Why we allow sin run wild? 

Why we abandon God standards? 

Why we pollute Him altar and twist Him word? 

Why we dey call evil good and good evil? 

Why we forsake the God wey create us?

And after all this, we still get mouth to question God? Why.

Before we ask God “why,” make we first ask ourselves “why.” Why we dey resist Him ways? Dey doubt Him love? Why we dey trust ourselves pass we trust Am? The answers dey closer than we think.

REFLECTION QUESTIONS 

·       Which situations for my life dey make me question God instead of trusting Him? 

·       Where God dey ask me to surrender my need for answers and just obey? 

·       Which Scriptures I fit hold when I dey tempted to ask “why” instead of saying “Lord, I trust You”?

PRAYER: Father, help me to trust You completely. Teach me to hold Your word without needing to understand everything. Strengthen my faith so I no go doubt Your plans for my life. I surrender my questions and choose to trust Your wisdom, 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. ...
