ah ah na God tell you make you no dey watch your health?

Weah96:


I'm not a Christian, but what makes you say that the bible god's will can be contravened? There is clearly sickness in the world as we speak?

Jesuobu:
Well, I asked this question but I will give a response which I think the answer is and maybe you can give a different response which you think the answer is.

Sickness is a state where good health is missing and can also be described as something that is corrupting a good and healthy state of being. When Adam sinned, he condemned all of humanity to suffer the consequences of that sin, one of which is sickness. The sickness of someone can be the will of God but not in all cases because some people sick because of their own negligence and nonchalant attitude towards their own health and well being.

But again some ailment in some believers can be the will of God to bring about His sovereign purpose to glorify Himself and to exalt His holy name. God can devise so many approach to draw you close to Him and one of which is sickness and after your tussle with the ailment and your mind is finally made up to follow Christ, He will take away the ailment eventually and you will live your life like a new born baby.

God can also use sickness as a method of discipline or as a judgement against sin, though sickness is certainly the result of the fall of man into sin but God is very much in control and will never allow Satan to go beyond his boundaries in the life of a sick believer and the case of Job is an example of this.

So my dear nairalanders, do you think otherwise? If yes, please give your reasons. Thanks and God bless.

izmango:

NO NO NO NO!

WHY?

BECAUSE

(Isaiah 53:4) says Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.

(John 10:10) The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

(John 19:30) When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.
It is finished! all the works of satan including sicknesses of all kind.

Sickness is from the thief, the destroyer. which is the devil and his cohorts. God can never ever give sickness to his children, just as you cannot hurt your own biological children. Thanks

@ the OP I will speak using my personal life. I Once believed sickness was for everyone until I saw where the Bible said that if the spirit of God dwells in me He will give life to my mortal body and I took that scripture and applied it to my life 21yrs ago and till date I have NEVER been sick or visited any hospital for check up. I never suffer from any sickness even if there is an epidemic of it....I walk free.

Sickness is an infirmity and infirmities are not of God but life, strenght and peace are. If any man be in Christ old things are passed away...Behold ALL THINGS are become new.

Akshow:
it cos you practice healthy living. Open ur self to extreme cold and let's see if you won't suffer from pneumonia or hypothermia. Drink contaminated water and see if you don't wind up with typhoid. Sleep in a mosquito infested room for a month let's see if malaria won't catch you. Moral of the post. There is nothing supernatural in not getting sick. Stop ascribing every good thing to God. Give ursef some credit

Davidsylva:
No headache too?

allanphash7:
You must be prof in LIEING

Fingerprinter:


My brother! If I tell u say i no tire for the guy eh, na lie. All in a bid to consolidate his useless belief.

QuietHammer:

Is that not sickness?

ayodeleamg:

Have you ever reasoned that nothing happens to anyone without the permission from God ?
If not, it means God's control over His creation is limited

mctowel01:

This reeks of so much ignorance

QuietHammer:
How can someone claim not to have been sick for 21years ?

4everGod1:



I made a truthful declaration and not a fictitious claim for I am living walking talking proof of one who by absolute trust in Gods word has been sickness free and in perfect health for 21yrs

trapQ:
No sire.

QuietHammer:

Not even the common headache?
