If you ever seen God heal someone or protect them and I am sure you have, then it's a hard thing to say God "Allows" it's like it's sort of saying God causes. So many scriptures tell us he protects us and heals us.
I still don't have that Lamborghini physically sitting my my drive way, though I have asked many years ago and it will come to pass.
Lots of things we ask need patience. Faith and patience inherit the promises. I don't like the Word patience, but it's in scriptures.
I hope I did not come across as sin being the cause of all things bad, though it's through the curse of the law these things are on the earth caused by sin.
I want you to examine those scriptures with a bit of consideration.
Joh 11:4 kjva When Jesus heard that, he said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified thereby.
God is not getting glory for someone being sick, but for being delivered. It's not saying God planned the sickness to get some twisted glory, but that He would get glory from it.
If God wants to give himself glory, Him and I can go visit a cancer ward somehere and clean it out.
Joh 9:1-3 kjva 1 And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth. 2 And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind? 3 Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.
So, the context is that the works of God must be manifested. God was not planning sickness in folks then Jesus following behind to play catch up to show how Great God is. that does not even sound good. The Kingdoms are not divided, but God gets the glory for all healing done, Not because a bunch of folks is sick.
Peter:
Now it appears Peter did no wrong.
Luk 22:31-33 kjva 31 And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat: 32 But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren. 33 And he said unto him, Lord, I am ready to go with thee, both into prison, and to death.
Jesus sees the enemy wanting to get ahold of Peter, Jesus warns Peter, Then Jesus said I will pray that your faith not fail.
That should have been all Peter said, the Lord said, Satan is trying to get you. What Peter say next? I am ready to go with thee to prison and death.
As soon as Peter said that Jesus then said..........
Luk 22:34 kjva And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.
Mat 26:31-33 kjva 31 Then saith Jesus unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered abroad. 32 But after I am risen again, I will go before you into Galilee. 33 Peter answered and said unto him, Though all men shall be offended because of thee, yet will I never be offended.
Now Deborah. It don't take a rocket scientist to see what Peter did wrong here. Jesus Said, the Lord of Lords, that ALL YE SHALL BE OFFENDED AT ME!
The Lord is telling them something here, and if Jesus said it then it's so. Peter on the other hand said your Wrong Jesus, I, I, I, I, I, I Will never be offended.................. ME, I Peter am all that and a bag of chips, the spiritual gift to the World, Me Peter! Your Wrong about Me Jesus. The Rest of these unfaithful wretches you let hang with us might, but not Me, the Mighty Peter!!
Peter after being much more mature wrote about this.
1Pe 5:1-5 kjva 1 The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed: 2 Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind; 3 Neither as being lords over God's heritage, but being ensamples to the flock. 4 And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away. 5 Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.
1Pe 5:6-8 kjva 6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: 7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. 8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
Telling Jesus that He is Wrong and He can handle this is not the way to get grace and help. Peter writes about it here and explains to us What not to do.
Submit yourselves to the elder, submit to God and humble yourself.
