Does suffering guarantee success?

1 Thessalonians  5:9 For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,

It is a wrong belief to think how well you're suffering now is a sign of how successful you will be tomorrow


If the rate of a man's suffering today is directly proportional to the rate of how successful he will be tomorrow then,

The most successful people today will be those who suffered most yesterday

This kind of belief only put limit on God and self...God never designed anyone to suffer

I know someone is already thinking up scriptures like Rom8:17,Phil.3:10, 1Pet.4:19 and so on....when you understand the intention of God for your life then you know the mind of God for your life. Some even go as far to think and testify that God used sickness to draw them closer. This kind of belief are wrong.

The most successful people today aren't those who necessarily suffered most yesterday,

But they are those who saw themselves as success yesterday even while suffering,

they accepted what the word of God says about them as their realities not the issue they go through,

They took the limit off God and began believing that with HIM all things are possible and began acting on what they believe

The fact Is a man can suffer all his life and never enjoy success because the state of his mind. I wrote in one of my post on change your thinking and change your life.

Your life move on the direction of your dominant thoughts. Yes suffering maybe there but don't just sit and hope soon it will turn but make efforts both in your work and in your mind to turn it around.

God bless you.
