"But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed." Isaiah 53:5
Does God heal everyone who asks Him? No, we know that He doesn't. However we also know that He can and does heal physical illnesses. The truth is that only He knows who to heal and when to heal. If His will is not to heal then He always gives peace to those who ask for it.
I have heard it said that " God didn't heal you because your faith isn't strong enough." I don't believe that. Matthew 17:20 tells us all we need is to have faith the size of a mustard seed. Have you seen a mustard seed? They are VERY small.
We tend to ask our selves "what's wrong with me that God won't heal me?" Nothing is wrong with you. God knows, sees, hears and is very concerned about you. He is going to use your illnesses in someway to help others. In a way that you may not ever know. Romans 8:28 says "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." Your illness will work for the good of God.
I think that sometimes He choices to heal some because He knows that they are going to carry out a bigger part of His plan that will require them to be well. Either way it is all of His glory, just another stepping stone in the path to His return.
God has not forgotten you and never will. He doesn't love you any less than someone He has healed. He doesn't work that way. He doesn't play favorites. If He doesn't heal you, I promise you that He has a good reason. I also promise that He will always give you peace when you seek His will. His will is always just!
Father, I pray for those who have an illness. For those who have asked You for healing. Father I pray Your will over them. I pray that You will grant them the gift of peace in their lives. Remind them Lord, that You are God and nothing is to big for You.
In Jesus name. I pray Your will, Amen
With God's Love,
Christian
