Jesus said those words in Matthew 27:46 and Mark 15:34. They are the translation of ‘Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachtani?’
Did Jesus not say the He is the Way? John 14:6 states: “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” What is the way of Jesus? Isn’t it suffering? If we do not have suffering, do you think we will remember God? Do those healthy and wealthy have any need for God? Maybe, they may not even think of God anymore. But how about those who suffer, who are persecuted, who are starving, who are raped, who are mocked by their fellowmen, etc., who do you think is the one who can save them from their sufferings? Do these people not think about God? For they know that only a supernatural being, God, who they can rely upon to get them out of their suffering or who can give them deliverance.
