The blessings from God is a covenant promise, but when a man is chosen by God for a greater blessing, then trial is a necessity. Every man in the Word of God that entered into a realm of rise and shine, expansion and explosion was tried.

Beloved, God is a giver of blessings. God is conditioned to bless His own people. He has the liberty to bless whosoever He wishes to bless and He is a distributor of divine blessings. In Genesis 1:28, the word of God declared ’And God bless them and said, be fruitful and mulitiply and ...read more

God Uses The Ordinary To Do The Extraordinary

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 24, 2025

It is amazing how some things never change. For example, when Christ was here on earth they had two kinds of men, as we have today. • They had the ordinary man • They had the extraordinary man
