Ghanaian artist Article Wan recently stirred debate with his tweet, “Why say man’s plan dey fail sometimes when there is a true GOD?” The statement questions the relationship between divine will and human failure, challenging the belief that a benevolent, omnipotent God would allow His followers’ plans to crumble.
From a theological perspective, some argue that failures are divinely ordained as lessons or tests of faith, suggesting that God’s wisdom transcends human understanding. However, this raises uncomfortable questions about free will and the role of human agency. Are we truly in control of our lives, or are we at the mercy of a higher power that allows—or even causes—our plans to fail?
Article Wan’s tweet also touches on an existential dilemma: how does one maintain faith in a “true God” when even the most devout face setbacks? Is failure a sign of divine indifference, or does it reflect the complexities of a world where faith and reality often collide?
In the end, the tweet forces us to confront the paradoxes of faith, questioning whether belief in a true God guarantees success—or if it demands a deeper acceptance of life’s uncertainties.
