OPINION – South Sudan claims, it is composed of Christians as majority. Unfortunately, if God is to visit today, the leaders will order His immediate arrest for fear of His sincere preaching and rebukes against evil doings. Those of us who pretend to be Christians (His relatives) will reject Him only to focus on singing slogans and executing assignments that can secure supply of bread and employment. Mainly, the notorious NSS will arrest Him. Only God knows whether He will be shot in Luri like those of Duang Samuel and Idri.
Enjoy the below imaginations of what may transpire if God is to PHYSICALLY visit South Sudan today.
Biblically, if God is to descend PHYSICALLY into the Republic of South Sudan today, He will be referred to as a rebel.
The only difference between him and those we see today is; no oil money can buy him off His Devine mission of seeing His children live a descent and peaceful life in a secured nation.
A nation with leaders of vision who can boldly rebuke where things tend to go wrong instead of mastering the OYEEE slogan for one’s name not to miss during presidential decrees.
If our God is to physically appear in South Sudan, He will definitely be a rebel for the following reasons:
- God created South Sudanese to be happy
Psalm 126:2 “Our mouths were filled with laughter, our tongues with songs of joy.”
We His children were created to be happy.
It is reported that South Sudanese, Ugandans and Nigerians are among unhappy humans in the continent of Africa. For the sake of His own people, whom leaders assume were created to only suffer while living in fear daily, He will rebel against those intimidating and terrorizing everyone in the country.
- In South Sudan, God will obviously rebel against leaders who preside over meetings aimed at assassinating His children for being potential threats to their progress. Meetings to raid cattle for marriage or wealth.
- God will rebel in Juba due to organized crimes supported and housed by the would be responsible leaders; the likes of Moses, Aaron and Joshua. These organized crimes are mainly committed by UNKNOWN GUNMEN who are backed up by decision makers in the country. The inhabitants of Juba normally get relief when one of the criminals (commander) dies or gets arrested. This is when gunshots reduce since the commanders will be few in the field.
- God created us with mouths for many reasons, one being expression of oneself.
A nation like South Sudan which doesn’t entertain freedom of speech and expression is where God will definitely rebel against those suppressing the rights of His children.
- Our creator expects us to make this world a better place than we found it using the natural resources He availed to us. God will ofcourse rebel upon realizing how leaders have diverted such natural resources to finance their private houses and businesses; subjecting His children to abject poverty and misery.
- God will rebel against all leaders believing in witchcraft. The only reason witchcraft still exists today is the huge support shrines get from their customers also called leaders or government officials.
Can you imagine some go as far as Abuja, Dodoma, Mombasa, China etc just to see their international witch doctors just like those who have international lawyers?
- God will rebel against land grabbers since He is the God of John the Baptist who said what belongs to Caesar should be his and must never be grabbed.
MARK 12:17.”Then Jesus said to them, “Give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God’s. And they were amazed at him.”
God will get shocked that the South Sudan government cannot bring order to Nimule, Kaya, Yei, Maridi, Wau, Torit and other places by driving out land grabbers while returning people’s ancestral homes to them once more.
- If God is to visit South Sudan today in His physical nature, He will be disappointed with all of us. He created managers who would manage the universe on His behalf.
He gave unto those He created same knowledge, wisdom and understanding as His own. Unfortunately, all are parked and everyone is singing slogans of survival even when things are bad.
GENESIS 1:26-28 Then God said, “Let us make humankind in our image, according to our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the wild animals of the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth.”
Yes, our creator will rebel against us for not defending the country He gave instead of sitting back to watch looters, killers and selfish leaders mess up everything. Probably, He may wonder why He sent you and I to South Sudan. He may decide to cross check whether you still have the managerial element put in you during creation as in the aforementioned verse.
- Another assumption why God may rebel according to me is when He will realise most relatives of Judas Iscariot live in the Republic of South Sudan.
Relatives who know nothing other than betraying themselves as if they didn’t learn from what Judas did to Jesus Christ. Judas betrayed Jesus’ mission for thirty coins just like his relatives repeat the same for bread, money, mansions, employment etc in the Republic of South Sudan.
- God will be shocked to realize the country He pulled from Sudan with destiny to uniqueness and greatness, keeps looking back to Egypt [Republic for Sudan] for assistance.
ISAIAH 31:1 “Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help, who rely on horses, who trust in the multitude of their chariots and in the great strength of their horsemen, but do not look to the Holy One of Israel, or seek help from the LORD.”
Ten years down the road, it still depends on Sudan for monitoring and managing its airspace.
10 years down the road, it cannot supply clean water to God’s people atleast in Juba alone.
10 years down the road, the entire country is not connected with road infrastructure.
10 years down the road, no rule of law.
Anyone assassinated in broad day light is said to have been killed by UNKNOWN GUNMEN yet no official has ever resigned for such leadership failures.
10 years down the road, no single agricultural factory in the country even when South Sudan has agricultural potential with abandoned institutions such as the NZARA COMPLEX in Western Equatoria State.
10 years down the road, a lot of SPLM looters, looting their own government. People who are only used to decrees that fire them today and reappoint them tomorrow with no accountability.
10 years down the road, no single referral hospital in an oil producing country.
10 years down the road, there’s unbelievable suffering of people as if leaders aren’t there.
10 years down the road,………..(add yours).
After surprises with shock, I am sure the God of our ancestors will repeat what He did in Egypt many years ago. He will organise His body which is the church to unanimously preach EXODUS while protesting against the Pharaohs of South Sudan.
I am pretty sure, God Himself will join the coalition to protest and guide the exit from the South Sudan laid on foundations of tribalism, nepotism, witchcraft, blood sacrifice and idolatry, etc. A country whose first factory was that of alcohol.
Our creator will finally divide the Red sea again for South Sudanese to officially enter the nation He intended for His children.
A nation where there’s rule of law.
A nation where life is precious and guarded.
A nation where girlfriends and boyfriends will not represent huge populations against people’s will.
A nation that will be connected by good roads hence, economic boom.
A nation with health insurance for all as opposed to that of 40,000 USD or 25,000 USD bribery packages to the compromised.
A nation where freedom of speech will be protected by the law, to mention but a few.
With few minutes to enter the promised nation with the above characteristics, God Himself will terminate contracts of Moses’ relatives.
PSALMS 109:8
“May his days be few; may another take his place of leadership.”
NUMBERS 20:12
Moses is denied entry to the Promised Land because of his own sin.
“He said to Moses and Aaron, “Because you did not show faith in me by sanctifying me in the sight of Israel’s children, therefore you shall not bring this community to the land that I have given them”
Our God will assure them how they won’t qualify to enter the NEW SOUTH SUDAN described above since history shows deliberate mutual understanding of comrades in looting what belongs to many. God won’t allow it in the promised land.
Only the likes of Joshua will enter the promised land; the only country every concerned youth dream of daily.
Are you a God loving person? Were you created by God? If yes, get ready to join the march to our new nation without uncles and their girlfriends and/or aunties and their boyfriends in crimes.
ON BEHALF OF MY BIBLICAL KNOWLEDGE WHICH PRESENTS GOD AS SOMEONE WHO CARES FOR THOSE HE CREATED, LET’S PREPARE OUR MINDS AND WAIT FOR THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE D-DAY WHEN THE MARCH TO OUR NEW SOUTH SUDAN WILL BE PRONOUNCED BY THE COALITION.
