You have a long way to go if your not sure God's will on healing Asperger.
And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us: And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.
(1Jn 5:14-15)
What happens if you don't know God's will before asking?
No confidence, not sure God heard, have to pray over and over once symptoms come up, being natural led.
However, there is hope, if someone will set their face to put the Word first, and shut out everything else. No TV, No Movies, nothing to contaminate the Word going in the ears.
Here is a couple with a boy who had autism, the doctors given up for a normal life. Mom and Dad did not know what God's will was, but got a tape series from Gloria Copeland and listened anyway. It took a long time, but healed of what can't be healed by doctors.

I've thought about this for a minute (not that my thoughts matter, its really about the mind of God), and...God does heal in this day and age. I mean, if He didn't, I wouldn't be alive, much less writing this post.
I'm no expert on healing. I'm a Baby Christian and all I know is what I've experienced. A lot of what I really wanted, and probably needed--the intelligence to get a degree, reconciliation with my father, physical health, normalcy--came about when I came to believe that it was possible and that God is a good God, not some angry tyrant in the sky or distant deity who doesn't intervene. He is actively involved in our world today and He does things for people--often the most unlikely people--because He loves us.
I'll pray for your healing.

The thing I preached on the most as a pastor was God is good. I would often say, "We all know God can, but that is not the important thing, do you believe God will for you?"
We receive from God, depending on how good we think He is.
If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?
(Mat 7:11)
How much more?
If a evil parent will give their child something to stop the pain..... How Much More?
If a Evil Parent will feed their child....... How much more?
If a evil parent will provide shelter....... How much more?
if a evil parent will instruct and comfort....... How much more?
Sadly, there are believers that think God is no where close to being as good as an evil parent. Worse, because they have no confidence in God, they twist things and think Cancer is a blessing, or being paralyzed is a blessing, or being poor is a blessing from God.
According to Jesus, God is Lamborghini, barns over flowing, every thing healed that needs healed, Good.
God is even better than that, because I am only a natural parent with limited knowledge of Good.

Is He capable? Yes(Matthew 19:24 ESV). Will He while you're on this Earth? That is yet to be seen so do not hang your Faith in God on this pillar.
I'm on vacation so I'll keep this short, God can do great miracles, in fact He can do anything but He may not have in mind what you do. Isaiah 55:9 clearly states:
"For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts." - Isaiah 55:9 ESV
God can heal aspergers I believe that, but to say that he will only do it if you believe hard enough or if you do the right things is bordering on the so called "prosperity gospel". God did not send Jesus to die on the Cross so you could be materially rich, God did not send Jesus to die on the Cross so you could be physically healthy, and God(contrary to popular belief) did not die on the Cross so you could be happy, for proof of this see the way Christians were treated(google the way the Apostles were killed) shortly after Jesus rose from the dead. God sent Jesus to die on the Cross so you could have reconciliation for all of your sins, so that by believing you may be healed of every disease and impairment when you enter with Him into Paradise. Believe in Jesus because He is the way the truth and the life, believe in Jesus because he will heal all of us on the Last Day, and believe in Him who is the only sacrifice to take away your sins so that when you have finished this race you will receive the crown of life prepared for all who love Him. The only earthly gift we are promised here is knowledge that we are forgiven through the Grace of God through Christ Jesus.
"But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved—and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God," - Ephesians 2:4-8 ESV
Do not be sad because of your situation, I have things I wish I could change in my life but it is not to be so on this sinful fallen world, take comfort in Paul's words:
"Through him we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in hope of the glory of God. Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us." - Romans 5:2-5 ESV
Soli Deo Gloria, Amen.

Here is another one, there are others online. But I agree with The_Epsicle.
This testimony is on Andrew's site with several other miracles God has performed. But even Andrew would tell you that God doesn't always heal and Andrew doesn't know why. He doesn't blame people for sin in their life or not having enough faith. He just says he doesn't know what God intentions are.

Terrible things happen to perfectly good people, solid Christians, even. I don't have an explanation. Miracles do happen, prayers are answered...sometimes. Sometimes, not so much. I don't have much to offer you except my own experience, which is that sometimes you just have to ask Christ to be there with you as you go through it. Sometimes, I think there's a difference between what we consider healing and what Christ considers making us Whole.

I know God has the power to heal because I've seen it personally. But I also know he doesn't always do it, no matter how much faith we have or don't have. To say that someone didn't get healed because they didn't have enough faith is to say that Paul himself didn't have enough faith since he prayed for his own healing and never got it. God acts according to HIS will, not according to ours.

Name one disease we are going to have when we get to heaven (Paradise was in Hell fixed by a gulf) Just one.
2Co_8:9 For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.
But by an equality, that now at this time your abundance may be a supply for their want, that their abundance also may be a supply for your want: that there may be equality:
(2Co 8:14)
This rich talking about some spiritual poorness, or Paul taking about abundance of material things?
But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life.
(Mar 10:30)
Praise ye the LORD. Blessed is the man that feareth the LORD, that delighteth greatly in his commandments. His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the upright shall be blessed. Wealth and riches shall be in his house: and his righteousness endureth for ever.
(Psa 112:1-3)
Are there no more generations of the upright left?
He did not die on the cross so we could be happy?
That I may come unto you with joy by the will of God, and may with you be refreshed. Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen.
(Rom 15:32-33)
Joy happens to be a fruit of the Spirit (spirit) Hello?
I have seen this a lot, and telling someone to not have faith in God for healing, is ignorant. Jesus must have been wrong saying according to your faith, so it be done to you, or your faith made you whole. So Jesus is wrong....... amazing, and not worth much more of my time.
Full of unbelief.
Deborah realizes that if she had continued believing incorrectly, her boys would not be healed today, because she would’ve thought that their condition was God’s will for them.
Where did Andrew Wommack say God does not always heal? The Article is against what Mr. unbelief (the Epsicle) said above. In fact you agreed with The Epsicle, and his advice would have killed this women boys by the statement from the article I posted.
You think it's a good idea to even spiritually agree with someone destroying faith in God, saying not to have faith in God for healing when God has healed so many people that trusted in him?
Andrew Wommack:
You must believe God always wants you healed. It's so simple, it takes help to misunderstand. But sadly, most Christians receive plenty of help from religion in misunderstanding this. Look at it this way: If God wanted you sick, for whatever reason, then why visit the doctor or take medication? It would seem more logical to allow the sickness to run its course so God's purpose could be accomplished. Of course I think that's foolish, and hopefully, so do you
I have never listened to one message from Andrew Wommack, don't know him from Adam. Andrew said you must believe God always wants you healed. What if you don't believe that? You get the same results as someone that did?
Where did Andrew say He is confused on God's intentions concerning healing? From the several articles I have read, He don't sound that confused.
NO, not everyone gets healed. Why they don't is not always revealed to us, or even our business. It has nothing to do with God's intentions though, or His will.
Why would anyone have to defend having faith in God. God forbid we teach people to get their hope up in God, which their hope is never made ashamed. Here I am, defending having faith in God.

Do not be moved by people that wish to destroy your faith. God had never let me down, and has never let anyone down that trusted in him. Not one time.
When was Paul sick, and when did Paul pray for healing? We can go over the messenger of Satan if you don't know.
Why did Peter sink? Did fear and being afraid have anything to do with it?
The best in the land could not cast out a devil. Given power by Jesus himself to raise the dead, cast out devils, heal the sick.. yet this one devil they had issues.
Jesus said, Because of your unbelief.
Don't think Faith means nothing. God acts according to the Word, and Miracles come by the hearing of faith (Gal) you believe his Word concerning healing or you don't. Faith is important though. We are responsible to believe something, otherwise we are not even believers.
blessings.

When we are leaving in a perfect world, not a fallen world, in perfect bodies, not vulnerable to disease, and we are all perfect people, you mean then......
Michael, there are suffering people in this world and this is just one example...but if we are all perfect, our lives are all perfect, it might make unbelievers want to flock to the church, but why would they be flocking there? Would it be to truly love the Lord as a Redeemer for sin, and as Lord to serve Him, or would they flock to Him as their sugar daddy.
Would they give their tithes from a heart of giving or a heart of receiving back, give to get. That's investment earnings.
How does one help others with their sufferings if they have never suffered. If their life as been all hunky dory, they have never lost a child, they have never lost a job, they always have financial riches, they have never been abused, or assaulted, how would they understand someone else's pain.
Only someone who has lost a child can knows what that is like. Only someone who has been raped can know what that is like.
Do you see what I am saying?

This is an incorrect question and you know that. Also I have already answered it in our private conversation.
It's fun to ignore context isn't it?
"And Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, “How difficult it will be for those who have wealth to enter the kingdom of God!” And the disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus said to them again, “Children, how difficult it is to enter the kingdom of God! It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God.” And they were exceedingly astonished, and said to him, “Then who can be saved?” Jesus looked at them and said, “With man it is impossible, but not with God. For all things are possible with God.” Peter began to say to him, “See, we have left everything and followed you.” Jesus said, “Truly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or lands, for my sake and for the gospel, who will not receive a hundredfold now in this time, houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions, and in the age to come eternal life. But many who are first will be last, and the last first.”' - Mark 10:23-31 ESV
Peter was crucified upside down in the Romans Colosseum after being one of the Christians blamed by Emperor Nero for the great fire of Rome in 64 AD, he did not receive the hundredfold of houses and land of material gain that Jesus is speaking about according to your understanding of this passage, but rather he received a hundredfold of Christian brothers, sisters, mothers, children, houses and lands along with the promised persecutions which are foretold here and elsewhere. Or do you claim that Peter died in unbelief?
As for that passage from second Corinthians, both spiritual and physical need.
The verse after your quoted portion:
"your abundance at the present time should supply their need, so that their abundance may supply your need, that there may be fairness. As it is written, “Whoever gathered much had nothing left over, and whoever gathered little had no lack.”"2 Corinthians 8:14-15 ESV
If you have anything extra(spiritual or material) give it all to someone who needs it, that is what this is talking about. However for clarity it is not a command:
"I say this not as a command, but to prove by the earnestness of others that your love also is genuine." - 2 Corinthians 8:8 ESV
Yes there are no more generations of the upright and there never was a single righteous man.
"Surely there is not a righteous man on earth who does good and never sins." - Ecclesiastes 7:20 ESV
"The LORD looks down from heaven on the children of man, to see if there are any who understand, who seek after God. They have all turned aside; together they have become corrupt; there is none who does good, not even one." - Psalm 14:2-3 ESV
"If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us." - 1 John 1:8 ESV
The source of Joy is God:
"You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore." - Psalm 16:11 ESV
I'll concede this point however because I was not clear that I was speaking of joy in material goods, rather than the Joy that is received from true contentment.
"But godliness with contentment is great gain, for we brought nothing into the world, and we cannot take anything out of the world. But if we have food and clothing, with these we will be content. But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation, into a snare, into many senseless and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evils. It is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pangs." - 1 Timothy 6:6-10 ESV
This also answers your question "Name one disease we are going to have when we get to heaven Just one." the answer is none, because we cannot take anything with us out of this world.
Godliness is not a means of gain, if you believe hard enough that something good will happen because you have Faith then that is a Sin.
"If anyone teaches a different doctrine and does not agree with the sound words of our Lord Jesus Christ and the teaching that accords with godliness, he is puffed up with conceit and understands nothing. He has an unhealthy craving for controversy and for quarrels about words, which produce envy, dissension, slander, evil suspicions, and constant friction among people who are depraved in mind and deprived of the truth, imagining that godliness is a means of gain." - 1 Timothy 6:3-5 ESV
Not to say good things don't happen to people who simply believe in Christ, for simply believing in Christ, but this is not why we hope.

Did you forget dear Sister?
Was it hunky Dory, that I was the parent that received the call from Chicago, the Doctors saying, my son would be dead sometime that night. You think it was hunky dory taking a stand, but 8 days later nothing better, just worse then I get the news it's over? That is Hunky Dory?
Does grief and loss teach anything? It's the byproduct of a sick and twisted spirit, the devil.
Was it Hunky Dory, working in a prison kitchen full of skin heads that warned me over and over not to talk about Jesus? One day cooking burgers they dumped God knows how much window cleaner, bleach and something else in my big cup of coffee which I just grabbed and took a big gulp. I couldn't breath, and never experienced that kind of pain. like I had no lungs. My first thought was I have to have enough to at least speak the word, before my body went into shock. I got it out, I think the Lord helped me. "Lord, Thank you that you said if i drink any deadly thing it shall not harm me, Forgive them." I then knew I had to walk the step and grab my spatula and keep working. It was then I was able to take a small gulp of air.
Was it Hunk dory, after being warned by the Muslims to leave a young kid alone about Jesus, and ignoring them, they told me I was going to be raped and get it good. One night I was taking a shower, alone, 3:am no guards and 3 gang members walk in, and told me, You know what is going to happen to you. they all had some type of shank. lets see that white butt......
For some reason I turned my back on them and started to laugh, I said, "This the best you got Satan? Really?" I then turned to fight, I figure at least one of them is going to get taken out before I get raped. That is Hunky Dory?
The list is longer. but recently.
This was not Hunky Dory:
Got my Job last year, it paid well with a trucking company. I was going to be promoted to train students after 6 months, lease my own truck and bring home 3K a week or more. Swift Trucking took over and fired me because of my 17 year old felony. Good bye plans.
I am a giver though.
Facing a car payment the bank wanted to take our only car, our rent 3 months behind and turned down by a total of 15 trucking companies. (More through through the year, but at that time of being fired)
Did I worry? did I even take thought? did it weigh on me at night? NO!!!!!!! There is a God, who loves us, and never fails.
Psa_37:5 Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.
Psa_37:40 And the LORD shall help them, and deliver them: he shall deliver them from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in him.
Pro_29:25 The fear of man bringeth a snare: but whoso putteth his trust in the LORD shall be safe.
Any of those scriptures say that if we trust in God, and commit our way to him that at times things just don't work out? We have to wait until heaven?
4 months behind in car payment the wife asked, you heard God? I said nope, but it's taken care of, stop thinking about it. If the Lord tells me to do something, I'll do it, otherwise we don't take thought.
we get a letter from our bank, thanking us for doing business and the title to our car. I have no idea who paid off our car, they don't know.
Every single month, someone is sent to us to ask if we need help with rent. All rent paid up and current. Power bill paid and current, internet even paid up and current.
I never asked one person or told one person of any need we had, not once. I told God. I reminded the Lord that I never held back from him, and I have more than once given someone a place to live, and more than once gave all our own bill money to someone the Lord said give it. I need help now Father. My wife and I are still in awe, thank him every single day.
Only someone that knows what loosing a child is like knows the grief it brings. Someone loosing a job, knows the worry on how things are going to get paid. Someone that was raped only knows the pain and humility it brings and the sense of not being safe anymore. I understand Deborah. I don't wish those things on anyone, and God give them grace and help to get through it, and comfort them.
I get what your saying.
However, I know a God, that never has failed anyone who believed and trusted in him. I know what it's like to face impossible things, and God come through every single time. I have been there, Most self inflicted, some not.
I know what your saying Deborah, do you hear what I am saying though?
Bonus Story:
Wife's friend had her daughter out in the car, it was getting dark, passing through a town on the way home and the daughter see's a park. She wants to go on the slide a few times. The Holy Spirit said. "Don't stop." but the daughter pulled and pulled so my wife's friend thought a few times down the slide won't hurt.
So, they park, walk to the slide and start sliding. Wife's friend was at the top of the slide and her daughter between her legs about to go down again when a car pulls up. Two men run out, pull knives out one at the bottom of the slide, the other at the bottom of the steps up to the slide and tells them they want to have some fun, come down and get in the car.
My wife's friend just froze. She lifted up her hands and said, "Lord, I disobeyed you, I am so sorry, I need you help though, you always deliver, and i am trapped." just then she hears...... "Go!!!"
she opens her eyes and both guys are like frozen. she slides half way down and jumps off with her daughter and runs to her car, drives over the grass and gets out of there. Both guys just looking around by the slide when she drives off.

Ignore context? Wow, your the one not listening.
100 fold now in this time. Houses, Lands..... that was the measure of wealth back then. you did not highlight that.
Peter killed?
Heb_11:35 Women received their dead raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection:
No scripture for Peter being killed, I'll take your word on it, but I only teach from scriptures. Sola Scriptura.
And that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men: for all men have not faith. But the Lord is faithful, who shall stablish you, and keep you from evil.
(2Th 3:2-3)
Paul believed something different from you when it comes to men coming to kill you. They ran their race, completed all God called them to do. Every single one of them died old and finished their course. Now if there is a better Resurrection, when I am done, sign me up also.
I saw something in you, but only the Lord is going to be able to overcome this religious doctrine you have.
by His stripes we are healed. By the blood, we have forgiveness of sin and his Resurrection, Death can not hold us.
You need to examine everything Jesus did on that cross, not just a part of it. It was far greater than what your giving credit for.
Mike.
Y'know, I saw an interesting post on Tumblr today, and it said this:

I didn't forget any such thing dear brother, Michael. And I'm the one who's baby son, David, almost died. Almost had his little chest and lungs cut open in surgery, but when I cried out to God, He answered and my baby boy left the hospital with me that very day. The Lord answered our prayers and that is our testimonies. Praise the Lord!
But it isn't that way for everyone and they too have a testimony that glorifies the Lord. How He cared for them in their sorrow, gave them strength to live day to day, and returned joy to their hearts. Their testimonies are just as important as ours, because theirs help to heal the broken hearted.

Praise God dear Sister. Thank you Lord for saving David, and being kind and gracious to Deborah and her family.
You been there. You did not leave with a Broken heart. Does God care for those that have sorrow? yes he does. Does God give back double all the enemy had taken? yes he does. For those that have suffered loss, but turned to God who helped and comforted is just as an important testimony. No question on that Deborah.
The question is no if God gives comfort or that God delivers. The question is does God want to for everyone? Did God fail you when you cried out to him? NO. did you trust God? You had to, otherwise you would not have called on him. There was something inside you that just knew God would not allow this and come through. I know there was.
For others, they are not so sure God would come through. That is not trust, and as the scripture I posted above, the requirement is to trust in the Lord.
Your not special Deborah, and I am not special. The difference is that when you Son was in danger, you where no novice in trusting God. When my son Got sick, the devil attacked at the wrong time. Even did his best to get me to side with him while my son was being treated with no results. I won't side with the devil. He is evil, he destroys family's.
There are laws, and God set them forth. Any lack of trust in God to come through goes to trust in the enemy to bring to pass his plan. There is a devil, and we have to deal with him.
God saved your Son Deborah, the last thing we want to tell folks is that it's not God's will to help and save them for horrible situations. There is a reason God helped us, and sharing that, will help others in the same thing.
For those that suffered Loss, we comfort, knowing God gave back to Job all he lost and more. If I can, I want to get the news over to prevent the loss.
I don't side with "God sometimes will, sometimes God won't" I know God, He will and wants to help, every single time. God is amazing, and good. If God did it for you and me, God will for someone else.
We comfort those that suffered loss, give hope and great promise to those in trail.
Blessing Sister.

The LORD will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O LORD, endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands.
(Psa 138:8)
Do not fret or have any anxiety about anything, but in every circumstance and in everything, by prayer and petition (definite requests), with thanksgiving, continue to make your wants known to God.
(Php 4:6) AMP
If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?
(Mat 7:11)
The guy on tumblr would be wrong.
It's not about what someone else believes, it's about what we believe. Right?
I think it depends. Sometimes God chooses to heal. Sometimes He wants gives us hardships as opportunities to learn and grow and taking the hardship away would take away the purpose of that. I begged God to take away my depression when I was dealing with that. But now that it's been over for a few years I'm grateful for that period of my life tbh. (Though it's more complicated than that because there's more to the story, but I won't get into it right now.) Because of it I became stronger and can empathize with others better.
