Nigerian author and pastor, Reno Omokri has suggested that the wealth and success that musicians are enjoying is not as a result of God’s blessings.
He stated this on Instagram while responding to a follower who questioned his post about success and progress making a U-turn for some men after they fornicate with slay queens.
The follower identified as Abdulrahman Omeiza then wondered why the same does not apply to musicians who sleep around but are still progressing.
In response, Omokri said asked Abdulrahman if he thinks it is only God that blesses. He further explained that their are other sources of blessings which are not of God.
He then referenced the biblical stories of magicians replicating what Moses did in Egypt, to buttress his point.
Omokri wrote; ”Dear Abdulrahman Omeiza, Do you think it is only God that blesses? Proverbs 10:22 says “The blessing of the LORD makes one rich, And He adds no sorrow with it.” What we learn from this is that there are other ‘blessings’ other than the blessings of God.
Don’t forget that Pharaoh’s magicians were able to replicate the first few signs that God wrought through Moses. Who was the source of true miracles? Certainly not God! What you should be looking at is the end of such blessings, not the beginning. Ecclesiastes 7:8 says “the end of a matter is better than the beginning thereof”.
Joshua 1:8 tells us that God gives “good success”. If there is good success, then by an application of Newton’s Third Law, there must invariably be ‘bad success’. Thank you and may God bless you.”
