“He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions” (Psalm 107:20)
A
lady once came to a preacher for prayer. She told him that God had put a
sickness on her to make her more humble. The preacher prayed, “Oh God, please
give her more of this sickness so she can be even more humble.” She quickly
rejected the prayer; she did not want to be sick anymore. Sadly, it’s the same
thinking with some today, they think God made them sick or poor as a way to
discipline them and make them humble. That’s just wrong, and it’s a result of
gross ignorance of God’s Word.
God
never uses the devil’s devices on His kids. Jesus said, “The
thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may
have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows).”
(John 1:10 AMP)
God
is not mysterious; In fact, He gave us His Word that we may understand His
ways, thoughts and personality. All God’s gifts and blessings are in His Word.
Whenever He wants to give you something, He does so through His Word, not
through sickness or poverty. His desire for His kids is that they enjoy the
happy, victorious, prosperous and transcendent life in Christ.
