The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. Jn 10:10 NKJV
Many negative and discouraging thoughts that torment us come from the enemy, known in the Bible as the devil.
Your sickness must come from God.
God no longer heals as in the Bible.
Only some are chosen by God for salvation.
If you are chosen for eternal life, you should be thankful, but you may also be chosen for the suffering of sickness and not for the grace of healing.
But God is very different. He sent his eternal Son Jesus into the world to do us good, not to torment us.
And you know that God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power. Then Jesus went around doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him. Acts 10:38 NLT
In the New Testament, Jesus fulfilled what God had clearly said in the Old Testament.
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Jer 29:11 NKJV
Our thoughts can be darkened by trials, but God understands our weak and flawed nature. Throughout the Bible you can read that God loves you and wants to bless you, not afflict you.
Don’t be deceived, my dear brothers and sisters.
Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. Jas 1:16–17 NIV
God loves you dearly and tenderly. He wants to help you and bless you. You do not have to be afraid of God.
