This is exactly the point most Christians miss.
Elon Musk gave that reply because his level of knowledge, discipline, experience, and mental capacity is too high for him to ever fall that low again.
And that’s how God works with us.
He takes you through processes so that your capacity matches the destiny He wants to give you.
He does not drop people into greatness without building them first.
Everything Elon knows today came through years of learning, failures, pressure, and painful experiences that shaped him.
It wasn’t “luck.”
It wasn’t “just grace.”
Even grace operates through structure.
Look at scripture:
David was anointed at 17, but he fought lions, bears, Goliath, survived Saul, lived in caves, BEFORE the throne.
His process built capacity.
Joseph had a dream at 17, but betrayal, slavery, and prison prepared him for rulership.
His process built wisdom.
Moses spent 40 years in Egypt and 40 years in Midian before God used him.
His process built character.
Even Jesus did not begin ministry until 30.
His process built obedience (Hebrews 5:8).
God prepares people privately before lifting them publicly.
So when Elon said he would never fall to the bottom again, he wasn’t bragging -
he was explaining a universal law:
Once your mind changes, your life can never return to where it used to be.
And even if civilization collapsed, he said he’d simply ask people to give him money so he could multiply it; because his mind is trained to create value, not to beg or collapse.
This is exactly what spiritual growth should look like:
You grow in knowledge.
You grow in wisdom.
You grow in understanding.
You grow in capacity.
You grow in discipline.
And once you break through that process, you can never truly “go back” again.
"But I know that maybe like 50 people will even read this tweet this far because even though a Nigerian man will risk his life to scoop 50 litres of ka-boom-boom from a fallen petrol tanker, the sight of paragraphs is where he loses all motivation in life."
😆 🤣 😂
The minute you understand the history of British colonisation and the wider logic of imperialism is the minute you free yourself from the mental tyranny of artificial constructs like "tribe."
Once you learn that the modern day "Yoruba," "Igbo" and "Hausa" identities are products of colonisation, and that there was in fact no such thing as a "Yoruba" or an "Igbo" people before the British created Nigeria (even the word "Yoruba" is an exonym that has no meaning in the language it describes), you finally understand the true extent and ugliness of what colonialism really was.
It was an audacious social and economic engineering project on the kind of scale that only a paranoid delusional who thinks he is a god should even be able to conceive of. The idea was to convert these diverse groups of millions of free African peoples (who constantly opposed and fought against the British empire) into self-replicating imperial drones who would eternally fight each other for the temporary privilege of being the most favoured servants of the empire, without it occurring to them that they could band together and break free from the empire instead.
Nothing was a coincidence. From their deliberate unbalancing of the tripartite ethnic power-sharing arrangement through the fraudulent census that counted more people in the Sahel than by the coast (the basis of Nigeria's everlasting population myth), to their use of the BBC World Service to brand the January 1966 putsch as an "Igbo coup," to their subtle and repeated use of Goodluck Jonathan's middle name (Azikiwe) on BBC Hausa and RFI Hausa during the 2011-2015 regime change operation...all of it was planned and deliberate.
And once you understand that the biggest threat Nigeria actually faces comes from DC, Paris, London, and Brussels - not from any group of Nigerian idiots doing whatever idiocy they are doing - you gain a proper sense of perspective, and you grasp where you stand in the wider world. At that point, "tribalism" starts to resemble dog faeces to you, because you understand where it came from, what role it serves, and who actively maintains it - including the American bot farms that have created "Nigerian" accounts with matric number handles to fan the flames of ethnic conflict all over Nigerian social media since 2022.
But I know that maybe like 50 people will even read this tweet this far because even though a Nigerian man will risk his life to scoop 50 litres of ka-boom-boom from a fallen petrol tanker, the sight of paragraphs is where he loses all motivation in life.
At best the sorry blockhead will comment "Grok summarise this" in the comment section.
Lagos APC to Peter Obi: “Stop Jubilating Over Nigeria’s Challenges - Patriotism Is Not Selective Outrage”
The Lagos State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has observed the latest grandstanding by Mr. Peter Obi following the U.S. designation of Nigeria as a “country of particular concern.” True to form, Obi once again attempted to turn a sensitive national issue into political theatre rather than demonstrate statesmanship.
Even more telling is that it uncharacteristically took him some time to respond. For a man always seeking microphones and hashtags, his sudden silence was deafening - until well-meaning Nigerians began to publicly question it. It has become clear that Obi did not speak out of patriotic instinct, but out of public pressure and fear of further exposing his double standards.
When he finally spoke, the nation saw what we expected - too little, too late, and too predictable. His reaction lacked sincerity, urgency, and any semblance of a unifying spirit.
A man who claims to desire national leadership should not require public reminders to speak when his nation’s image is at stake. Leadership is proactive, not reactive and certainly not driven by online agitation.
A Leader Who Is Only Happy When Nigeria Is Sad
Real leaders defend their country in difficult moments.
Statesmen balance criticism with dignity and national pride.
But Peter Obi appears content only when Nigeria is under pressure, believing every challenge for the nation is an opportunity for his political resurrection. That is not patriotism. It is sour politics born from electoral heartbreak.
Tinubu Is Fixing the Insecurity Obi and Allies Fed With Propaganda
Nigeria’s security problems did not start yesterday - they were inherited. President Tinubu is confronting them with courage and strategy:
•Strengthening military command and intelligence structures
•Deploying modern technology and platforms
•Re-energizing regional and global security collaboration
•Tackling the economic roots of insecurity through bold reforms
While serious leaders are working, Obi and his online choir are rehearsing 2023 grievances and clinging to foreign commentary for political oxygen.
Obi Must Choose - Nigeria or Desperation
Obi must decide whether he stands with Nigeria or with his ever-shrinking echo chamber of bitterness and resentment. No serious nation is built on the politics of sulking and sensationalism.
His recent behavior confirms why Nigerians rejected him - leadership demands maturity, not melodrama and delayed outrage.
Nigeria Will Rise - With or Without the Naysayers
Nigeria will not bow to those rooting for its challenges to worsen.
We urge the public to stay focused on the Renewed Hope agenda and reject individuals who profit politically from national difficulty.
Nigeria will succeed - despite those praying for its failure and reacting only when forced by public pressure.

I am thrilled to announce Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as The United States Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS). For too long, Americans have been crushed by the industrial food complex and drug companies who have engaged in deception, misinformation, and disinformation when it comes to Public Health. The Safety and Health of all Americans is the most important role of any Administration, and HHS will play a big role in helping ensure that everybody will be protected from harmful chemicals, pollutants, pesticides, pharmaceutical products, and food additives that have contributed to the overwhelming Health Crisis in this Country. Mr. Kennedy will restore these Agencies to the traditions of Gold Standard Scientific Research, and beacons of Transparency, to end the Chronic Disease epidemic, and to Make America Great and Healthy Again!
