    If god healed everything, there would be less faith in him. People in their biggest time of need prayed to god the most. If there was nothing that was troubling them, of course they would thank him, but at the same time it would not be as strong of a prayer.

    He is working on it. He is, as we speak, setting up a Gov that will rule from heaven. This Gov will end all sickness and pain and even death. It will raise the dead as well.

    During the last world power, the 7th, this is what is being done in heaven. Dan 2:44 “And in the days of those kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be brought to ruin. And the kingdom itself will not be passed on to any other people. It will crush and put an end to all these kingdoms, and it itself will stand to times indefinite;

    Psalm 115

    3But our God is in heaven; He does whatever He pleases.

    Job 23 Amplified Bible (AMP)

    13But He is unchangeable, and who can turn Him? And what He wants to do, that He does.

    Psalm 135

    Amplified Bible (AMP)

    6Whatever the Lord pleases, that has He done in the heavens and on earth, in the seas and all deeps-- +++"Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

    9:14-24 Whatever God does, must be just. Wherein the holy, happy people of God differ from others, God's grace alone makes them differ. In this preventing, effectual, distinguishing grace, he acts as a benefactor, whose grace is his own. None have deserved it; so that those who are saved, must thank God only; and those who perish, must blame themselves only, Hos 13:9. God is bound no further than he has been pleased to bind himself by his own covenant and promise, which is his revealed will. And this is, that he will receive, and not cast out, those that come to Christ; but the drawing of souls in order to that coming, is an anticipating, distinguishing favour to whom he will. Why does he yet find fault? This is not an objection to be made by the creature against his Creator, by man against God. The truth, as it is in Jesus, abases man as nothing, as less than nothing, and advances God as sovereign Lord of all. Who art thou that art so foolish, so feeble, so unable to judge the Divine counsels? It becomes us to submit to him, not to reply against him. Would not men allow the infinite God the same sovereign right to manage the affairs of the creation, as the potter exercises in disposing of his clay, when of the same lump he makes one vessel to a more honourable, and one to a meaner use? God could do no wrong, however it might appear to men. God will make it appear that he hates sin. Also, he formed vessels filled with mercy. Sanctification is the preparation of the soul for glory. This is God's work. Sinners fit themselves for hell, but it is God who prepares saints for heaven; and all whom God designs for heaven hereafter, he fits for heaven now. Would we know who these vessels of mercy are? Those whom God has called; and these not of the Jews only, but of the Gentiles. Surely there can be no unrighteousness in any of these Divine dispensations. Nor in God's exercising long-suffering, patience, and forbearance towards sinners under increasing guilt, before he brings utter destruction upon them. The fault is in the hardened sinner himself. As to all who love and fear God, however such truths appear beyond their reason to fathom, yet they should keep silence before him. It is the Lord alone who made us to differ; we should adore his pardoning mercy and new-creating grace, and give diligence to make our calling and election sure.

    God wants us to grow. People who struggle through sickness and health problems are often the most humble, happy people because they let the Lord humble them and bless them with more blessings than health.

    God works through us and since everyone knows we have such rock solid Faith in God, it does make one wonder doesn't it?

    M't:9:29: Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you.

    I've thought about this a lot. I think that if God healed everything we would have no faith in him because our faith would be sight. If we saw everyone healed there would be proof of God. Our goal is to have faith and believe in him with our hearts. Just my opinion.

    What kind of god would he be if he obeyed your every wish and command. What kind of people are we that we deserve to have disease removed from our world?

    Leprosy is the lack of pain,,, and people damage their tissue because they can't feel pain. If YAHUSHUA removed the results of our transgression, wouldn't that encourage more transgression??
