Trial Brings Unspeakable Blessings

Contributed by Adewale B T Shittu on May 16, 2013

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.
