This seems to be the biggest question in Town right now and no one seems to be ready to answer it. But why the question? Do you think God’s will would have been Atiku or Obi or Kwakwanso or…I could go on. There were up to 18 candidates. Or do you limit your list to the first three because they are the most likely to emerge?
Do you think Buhari was God’s will in 2015? Or Jonathan was God’s will earlier on? Do you think Mahmoud Yakubu was God’s will for INEC chairmanship? Why are you not asking if Emfiele was God’s will as CBN Boss.
I could go on, you know? Was 1914 amalgamation God’s will? Was it God’s will that the British Government colonize Nigeria?
Okay, let me stop here.
There’s “God’s Foreknowledge”
There’s “God’s will”
And there is “Predestination”.
If thieves rob a house, God knew ahead but does that translate in God’s will or what He predestines?
The Bible says: two ways are before you, one to life and one to death, CHOOSE. He doesn’t determine what you choose but he knows where the one you choose will lead to.
Let me break it down. IF Bro. A proposed to Sis. B, God knows Sis. B would agree IF she doesn’t listen to the advise of Uncle J. IF they both decide to have a child immediately, God knows they may not because of a condition that the brother has but IF they take simple medical steps, God knows that they will have a male child and then IF they apply to travel abroad, they will succeed but their marriage may not survive it. God knows IF they choose to stay back, they will do well in farming…..and so on
Is Tinubu God’s will for Nigeria? That’s not the question. The question is, if God knew he would be the one to win.
Another question, if his government is like others that have gone ahead of him, what would be the fate of a child of God?
The Scriptures say: He makes all things work together for the good of them that loves him and walk in His purpose.
Three things-
He doesn’t cause wrong things to happen but could turn anything around for the good of those who:
First, love Him.
Second, walk in His will.
Another question, will Tinubu be sacked? Only God knows “IF”.
Are you saying nothing is certain but based on IFs.
Many things in human affairs are based on IFs, God gives man the power of choice. It became solid when Adam ate from the maturity fruit- knowledge of good and evil
However, every affair of man is certain at some point.
Take home-
There’s a way out in God first, for you- if you will seek it. And also, the whole nation- if we will seek it.
