There is considerable misunderstanding about the ongoing events in Kenya, often referred to as a "season of judgment." Many Kenyans struggle to grasp what this means, particularly as they reconcile it with the belief in a loving and merciful God. This seeming contradiction leaves some dismissing the concept altogether. This article aims to provide clarity on the subject, highlighting God's consistent character, past examples of divine judgment, and the shocking revelations currently unfolding in Kenya.
The Character of God and Judgment
To understand divine judgment, it helps to reflect on God’s unchanging nature as revealed in the Bible. Hebrews 13:8 reminds us that God is the same yesterday, today, and forever. The same God who judged individuals and nations in the past continues to act in the same manner today. Looking into past instances of judgment helps us understand His actions and the lessons they hold for humanity.
Historical Examples of Judgment
Past judgments, both biblical and modern, reveal a pattern: exposure precedes judgment. Take the biblical account of Sodom and Gomorrah. Before their destruction, the depths of their evil were laid bare for all to see. Similarly, in Kenya's history, we see this pattern play out.
1. Paul Ngei
A powerful cabinet minister from Ukambani, Ngei's unchecked arrogance and shady dealings eventually led to his downfall. His refusal to settle debts, including a brand-new car from DT Dobie, and his alleged involvement in a murder case, were brought to light. Eventually, he was declared bankrupt, lost his political career, and suffered severe health complications. He spent his final days in shame, exposed and powerless.
2. Nicholas Biwott
Once a key figure in President Moi’s administration, Biwott’s reputation was marred by allegations of corruption and even murder, including the assassination of Foreign Minister Robert Ouko. After Moi left office, more details about Biwott's actions emerged. In his final days, his health deteriorated, and he lived in disgrace—a stark contrast to his once untouchable status.
The Present: Shakahola and Kenya’s Current Judgment
Today, Kenya faces its own moment of exposure. The horrors of Shakahola have shocked the nation and the world. Over half of the victims uncovered in the mass graves are children, pointing to deep-rooted societal evils. Evidence suggests involvement by powerful politicians, clergy, and business magnates seeking power, wealth, and influence. Revelations continue to surface despite attempts to suppress the truth, emphasizing that no one can hide from divine justice.
Court documents hint at organ harvesting and other atrocities, challenging official narratives. As more is exposed, it becomes increasingly clear that Kenya’s judgment is both a call for repentance and a divine reckoning.
Why Judgment Must Run Its Course
Some Kenyans wonder why judgment cannot be halted through prayer and repentance. While repentance is essential, history shows that divine judgment must run its full course. Just as the Israelites endured 400 years of captivity, and later 70 years of exile, Kenya too must face the consequences of its collective sins. This process ensures transformation and the establishment of lasting righteousness.
A Call to Action
As Kenya navigates this challenging season, it is crucial for its citizens to repent, seek God, and pray fervently. Simultaneously, individuals must remain vigilant, exposing and confronting the corruption and injustices that plague the nation.
