Adversity has the effect of drawing out strength and qualities of a man that would have pain dormant in its absence.

A lot of people thought that success is a bed full of roses, but the truth is that for you to be truly successful there are challenges you will encounter and experience that will prepare you for the kind of future you desire.

Setbacks, obstacles, countless disapoimtments are what you will surely experience no martter how your effort will be, so don’t be deceived. There his always a season of trial, it is alwaysnbeen trials before triumph, pain beforenGlory and text before victory.

Job said (bible),

”When he had tried me, I shall come forth as gold”.
Success is not always an easy road, there is a price to pay, there are challenges to edure.

Success is not playing fun, success is knowing what you want and givingnit what it takes, there are many times I’m my life that in have to go through series of challenges, from betrayal to rejection to disappointment.

WHAT NEXT AFTER AFTER SUFFERING?

No matter how rough or tough the road I, it will surely leads to a better destination.

SUCCESS FOLLOWS SUFFERING.

Isaiah 66:7-8 “before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child.
Who hath heard such a thing? Who hath seen such things? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? or shall a nation be born at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children.

A husband mates with his wife, such an act and experience cherished by both parties. Then something happens, she conceives, vision conceived. Over the time, nine months precisely, minor discomforts grow into a protruding stomach. She is carried or led into the labour room.

Then the hour came, she is in deep pains, it degenerates into a crushing crisis, it is in her stomach region but every part of her being is involved. Rather unconsciously, she blames the husband antagonize and curse everybody for her pains, agony; she groans.

The doctors and the mid-wife encourage her, they offer detached counsel; then turning points get nearer. A deep groan escapes her mouth, muscle contract and expand. God's wonder comes out, blooded and crying, with tiny hand, and eyes closed.

The mother is beyond crying, the bat crying for sure, the husband heart bleeding and crying and rejoicing allnat once. Husband becomes a father and wife becomes a mother. The mother's grin grows intona smile and then child’s cry announces its advent into a new world. The world of unlimited possibilities, a newnchild is born.

Travail such an ugly word; travail is no punishments. Not the end points to life but a cross over to a new level. A wife who refuses to travail refuses to be a mother. First the conception (vision & dreams); then the travail before the delivery.

Adversity possess its own advantages;

The difficulties and strugtles of today are but the best price we must pay for the accomplishmemt and victory of tommorrow. It is compulsory you navigate your way through wilderness to get to your destination. Time of general calamity and adversity has been productive to greatest minds. The truth is this, if you like things easy, you will have difficulties, if you like problem, you will succeed.


Sometimes God leads us through the heard way instead of the easy way, because he is doing a work in us. How will we ever learn to lean on him, if everything in our lives is so easy that we can handle it ourselves?

For you to be successful, you must be ready to experience different challenges at different levels. A successful man will never see the day that does not bring a fresh quota of problems and the mark to success is to deal with it effectively.
