The Righteous Can Also Get Sick
Tuesday 5th May
Text: Psalms 41:1-3
Key Verse: Now Elisha was fallen sick of his sickness whereof he died. 2 Kings 13:14a
Here, we are considering the cases of sicknesses and diseases of the righteous, because there are people who think that righteous people cannot get sick. Not that the righteous must be ill. No! However, let us consider the following circumstances in order to understand more of God’s wisdom:
God can manifest His power in a special sense as He led the children of Israel from Egypt to the promise land. The Bible says that there was no feeble man among them. Even the clothes that they put on their body did not wear out. That is a special manifestation of the power of God. God can decide to make things happen this way. But is it that believers' clothes do not wear out? No! They wear out. Many of your clothes have worn out. In fact, the clothes you used four years ago, you may not wear them again. Why? They have worn out following the law of nature. At times, God will allow the law of nature to take effect. Why? He has made sufficient provision to counteract it. So, believers can get sick. Do you know that the brook of water that Elijah was sent to by God followed the law of nature and dried up eventually, to the point that he had to look for another place, because that was the law of nature? God allows nature to have its own course. He may not choose to alter it. He can alter it by miracle, but He does not always do it. Can the righteous be sick? Yes! The righteous man can be sick and can be oppressed by the devil, because he is in this world where Satan is. The righteous man can be sick. Therefore, know this scripture so that humility will always be with you. Know this scripture so that you do not go into hypocrisy and be giving false testimony to show how righteous you are, attaching it to your righteousness.
