It wasn't God's will to heal him and He told him so.
So now you're saying God's will might have something to do with how a prayer is answered.
That's quite a bit of a change in your previous position. (bold emphasis mine)
When you pray and are thinking in the back of your mind, "What if they don't get healed?", you may have a faith problem. You can't please God without faith.
You just busted the whole "name it and claim it" false gospel.
Busted.
God is sovereign and has His will and purpose and when our prayers line up with that, He will answer them the way we expect.
But some people just can’t manage to let God be God. They have to tell HIM what to do and how it should fall out.
That’s pretty gutsy if you ask me.
It's not "name it and claim it" but rather say it in faith. If you lack faith, don't bother to pray. Maybe a prayer like, "Lord, increase our faith" might fit closer. Then watch for God to increase your faith. He could even heal the person instantly to increase your faith.
Let me ask, just a hypothetical question. If a loved one, say a spouse or daughter, died in front of you. Would you pray over her, "Rise up, in the name of Jesus!" or would you just weep as the coroner carried her off? Would you be embarrassed that someone might hear you? Do you believe the Bible or not? The same Spirit in Paul is in you. That is a measure of faith to study on before you are tested. Remember all you need is a mustard seed of faith.
Many people I talk to SAY they have faith, but rarely show any. I've even spoken to pastors praying for sick people in their flock and told them my testimony of my mother in law, and they replied, "I don't believe in that." I asked, why are you bothering to pray if you don't believe. It's the same with me. I tell of things I have seen and done, in person, and they don't believe, yet go to church and pretend they are praying for whatever they have a need for. Then they wonder why their prayers are never answered. I literally have 100's of stories of answered prayers, literal miracles, but people here seem angry at me, or think I'm weird, or a liar, or a fool. When the deaf were healed and the lame made to walk, Jesus told them "Go and tell NO ONE!" What did they do? I'm the same. I just want people to know what I have seen with my own eyes. We are supposed to gather together, especially in the Last Days, to speak of our Testimony. My testimony should edify people, not make them angry. It makes me wonder what spirit is inside them to do such a thing.
