Not Punishment

MESSAGE FOR THE NIGHT!

SUFFERING IS NOT PUNISHMENT!!!

2 Corinthians 4:17 reads, “For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison."

Why does God answer ‘yes’ to some prayers and ‘no’ to others? Why does God miraculously heal some people and not others? Why does disaster strike one city and not another? I know that God answers prayer. And we need to pray. God tells us to ask, and it will be given to us (Matthew 7:7).

Can we simply draw straight lines between our requests and God’s answers? A pastor shared a testimony of how God healed him of cancer. Some of his church members said, “We knew God would heal you. He had to because people were praying for you." While the pastor was thankful for others’ prayers, he also knew God did not owe him healing.
