Africans Need To Stop Asking God To Solve Their Problems! by lingoafrica: 5:47pm On Jul 29, 2018
God Almighty is a provider, that is general knowledge, but if God wanted to do everything himself, he wouldn't have given man the wisdom to set up educational systems to provide knowledge. He wouldn't have allowed humans to have a government system.

It is a habit for Africans to keep asking God to take away their suffering, and to help them make their institutions stronger and more responsible. It is common to hear statements like God will help us or God will save us whenever a calamity arises.

This attitude has made Africans forget that they have a government and should hold their government responsible and accountable to their promises before they assumed office.

There are so many things that have gone wrong with Africa largely because her people would rather spend all their lives in churches and mosques praying for things to get better, while watching as their resources are wasted by wicked men and women in government and the future of their children yet unborn are placed at risk with shaky and corrupt institutions.

We need to just keep this God hypothesis aside and do what we need to do to help ourselves. No God has ever helped any society to develop. Everything that man needs to do must be done by man himself.

"You cannot read the Bible and invent a drug, a car, a weatger forecasting device, a disaster prevention machine or any other technology. The Bible does not contain any formula, theor, solution or research through which you can come about inventing anything to benefit humanity.
All the Bible knows is "let there be fish and there was fish" as if that explains anything about fishes and other aquatic life forms.
That book is totally useless to humanity".

Exactly! Just look at Nigeria, a blessed country with vast natural resources, being the poverty capital of the world, simply because her people refuse to harness what she has been blessed with!!

Na wa ooo!!

Only the God of Israel can lift our curse.

All we can do is tithe fast pray and obey without question.

Our only hope is to die and be reborn in Christ Jesus.

We can do nothing.

If u think people should stop asking God for help, kindly explain to me Gods function as God in human affairs.
What's his duty? Why do humans worship him? Why is it necessary to acknowledge him when we don't need him?
