For Those That Love God, There Is A Blessing In Every Storm by Righteousness89(m): 7:18am On Jul 26, 2020
For Everyone that Genuinely loves and follows the Lord, there is hidden blessing, elevation and Promotion in that storm hitting you.

Romans 8:28
And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.


I have Come to learn in Life that GOD ALMIGHTY is so mindful of His own. His Eyes goes through and fro looking out for those that Trust and Depend on Him.

In every trial and Tribulation we conquer, we attain a Higher level in our Christian race. This means that no matter how bad a situation may seem to us, as long as we love, Trust and Follow the Lord, it will work out for our good and greatness.

1 Corinthians 10:13
There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.


Trials Can be likened to the refining of Gold. The Gold must be put in fire before it can bring out the Pure and Beautiful nature of the stone. Likewise, we must Sometimes go through Tribulations and trials in order to Mature in our Walk with God.

Joseph's Journey to Greatness was littered with obstacles, but his ability to hold on even in the Midst of trouble and trials enabled him to succeed. Those tribulations and trials were the stepping stones to his final destination.

He could not have been a Prime Minister of Egypt, if he was still in his Father's house in Canaan. Selling him by his brothers as a slave, was part of the Greater plan.

He would not have met Pharoah's Servants if he was not thrown into prison. Potiphar's wife was an unwilling agent in God's Hand.

All the trials and troubles were the Raw Materials to get him to that Post of Prime Minister in a foreign Land. The Ways of God are so different from the Ways of men. We Just need to Trust God with all our heart, Love Him and Follow Him no matter the Situation.

In the Case of our Lord and Savior JESUS Christ. If the devil had known that the Death of Jesus Christ will bring Salvation to ALL, he would not have entered Judas Iscariot to betray Him. Though the death was Painful for The MASTER to bear, it eventually ended up in the Salvation of the Whole Earth.

In the Midst of trials, tribulations, persecutions, pains, etc. What we need to bother ourselves with is if we are still Fully Trusting and Following our MASTER, JESUS Christ. What should be of Concern to us is to ensure we have not Fallen away!

Once that is Confirmed, let us Receive the trials, Pains, Persecutions and Tribulations with Koy because they are the Raw Materials to our Greatness, Elevation, Expansion, Breakthroughs, Increase, Dominion, Restoration, Blessings and Favors.

Jeremiah 17:7-8

7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is.
8 For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.

The Earth is the only place we know and the quicker we take it as our home the better we are going to be for it.

So why are we on Earth? To identify those who are worthy to make heaven?

There's not always a blessing in every storm. You guys should stop deceiving yourselves. This is 2020. Sometimes a storm is what it is. A storm.

Also the blessings that are accrueable in the wake of a storm aren't limited to religious nuts like the Oap who think they love or know God. Many people with different persuasions can get blessings in the aftermath of any trying ordeal as such is the nature of ordeals. They make you re-examine your life and choices and probably lead to better outcomes than the status quo ante. This has nothing to do with any deity.

It is high time we started using our heads.

The statement is qualified "THOSE THAT LOVE GOD".

And you must know that He knows All who love Him!

You are right, but this is way easy.

Why not following their logic and use it against them by pointing to them covertly how dumb their reason is without making it obvious so that they can start doubting themselves.

I am sad to say, Yes!

For it is written
"Trust in the Lord, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.

4 Delight thyself also in the Lord: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.

5 Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.

25 I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not (never) seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.

37 Mark the perfect man, and behold (look) the upright: for the end of that man is peace Psalm 37.

Nigerians Love God more than most developed western countries, why are they still suffering and smiling?

They generally love God wrongly and foolishly with their number 1 thinking being that they think that God Lives and Serves Them rather than them knowing that they are the Toys and Servants of God and therefore, if they like his Good Fortunes and want to receive all his gifts, they ought to serve Him.

And that the simple rule is if you please Him, He Who is Better than Good, will Please You in Return.

But it is not their own pleasure of their own choosing rather It Is His Own Pleasure And His Own Choosing!

Also the what, way, manner, rate and extent that He Shall Bless Is Always At His Own Full Discretion, and if they have understood Him, then they shall have Everything!

I don't think Nigerians Love God, ...........you can't claim you love God yet you are among the most poorest nations despite Churches everywhere....

The God of the universe is not a wicked God but He is a God of principle.........

John 14:15
If you love me, keep my commandments


Loving God does not mean going to Church or building 1000000 capacity Church..........

1 John 4:20
Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar. For whoever does not love their brother and sister, whom they have seen, cannot love God, whom they have not seen.

Wickedness, Foolishness, Competition, Pride and Arrogance, Recklessness, Never Doing Things Well or Excellently aka mediocrity etc many many things my brother.

They think that by much attendance of church, much quoting of Bible passages, much waka-waka in the name of evangelism, much ble-bleble, shouting Prayers upanda, blowing hot-hotter-hotest prayers and gesticulations, the Lord God Must Answer their Prayers and Petitions.

They never take heed.
