Description

Many have asked me questions concerning 𝗯𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴s and 𝘀𝘂𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴s. Aren’t they mutually exclusive? We can only have one or the other? I have always believed that God is a good God who blesses. At the same time, I also believe that a godly life is a life of suffering.
 
Many Christians can’t handle blessings and sufferings happening at the same time, much like how they struggle with balancing truth and love, faith and the sovereignty of God, or the “already” and “not yet”. They either imagine a life of endless blessings and favour that has no trials, testings or tribulation, or a life of endless sufferings in which there are no supernatural healings, deliverances or provision.
 
As long as we live in this present age, blessings and sufferings will always go together. If we can’t accept this, we will end up embracing either 𝗵𝘆𝗽𝗲𝗿-𝗳𝗮𝗶𝘁𝗵 (only blessing, no suffering) or 𝗵𝘆𝗽𝗲𝗿-𝘀𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗶𝗴𝗻𝘁𝘆 (only suffering, no blessing). Both extremes are wrong! In times of blessings, we must not be afraid of hardships; and in times of hardships, we must continually believe God for inner peace, good health, financial breakthroughs, and kingdom revival.
