Why the Wicked Seem to Prosper. by Onyxe Nnaemeka

In today’s Nigeria, it’s hard not to wonder: Why do the corrupt rise so fast? Why do those who break all the rules enjoy all the rewards? Why does it seem like honesty is now a disadvantage? At face value, it feels like the world is upside down. But when we zoom out and understand natural laws, everything starts to make sense. 💡 What Are Natural Laws? Natural laws are unseen principles that govern everything—just like gravity. They apply to everyone, regardless of status, title, or tribe. You don’t need to “believe” in them for them to work. Whether you’re in Nigeria, China, or America, if you jump, gravity pulls you down. Same way: If you plant a seed, it will grow. If you lie, cheat, or harm, consequences will come—even if delayed. 🧱 Temporary Success vs. True Success Let’s be honest—what most people call “success” today is shallow: Flashy cars from fraud Big houses built on bribes Fame bought with blood But natural law doesn’t reward shortcuts. What looks like success is often a ticking time bomb. You can fool people, but not principles. Many of those who “make it” through dishonesty later suffer in silence: Health issues Broken homes Sleepless nights Spiritual emptiness True success is peaceful, lasting, and built on truth. “Because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.” – Ecclesiastes 8:11 🌍 Nigeria: A Society That Violates Laws Nigeria is filled with daily violations of natural and moral laws: Injustice in courts Lies in the media Oppression by leaders Corruption in every corner But a society cannot flourish this way. You cannot build on brokenness. Natural law ensures that everything that rises without justice will eventually fall. ⏱️ Natural Laws Are Not in a Hurry Don’t be deceived: because consequences delay, people think they’ve escaped. But no one escapes. Like a silent judge, natural law keeps records. You may run, but you will meet your harvest eventually. That’s why evil people who seem to be thriving today often end in disgrace, confusion, or ruin. What Should You Do? In a world like this, it's tempting to join the crowd and do what everyone else is doing. But don’t sell your soul for speed. Obeying natural laws may not bring instant wealth, but it gives: Inner peace Sound health Lasting joy Generational legacy Let others “blow.” You build. Final Thoughts Yes, wickedness sometimes looks like it’s winning. But that’s only for a season. In the end, the law always catches up. Live with integrity. Build on truth. Trust the process. Because while evil has its moment, natural law has the final say. #NaturalLaw #LawsOfLife #TrueSuccess #NigeriaToday #DeepLiving #SpiritualWisdom #WhyEvilProspers #LiveWithPurpose #InnerPeace #BuildOnTruth #LegacyOverLuxury #WisdomForLife #RealSuccess #ConsciousLiving #NaturalJustice
