“God will use sickness to teach you something.”
Then what do we need a devil for?
God DOES NOT use sickness, car accidents, or poverty to teach us a lesson. His Word and His Spirit are the teachers.
2 Timothy 3:16 NLT All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right.
John 14:26 NLT But when the Father sends the Advocate as my representative—that is, the Holy Spirit—he will teach you everything and will remind you of everything I have told you.
It’s the enemy’s job to deceive us into thinking negative circumstances are God’s way of teaching us something. We can learn something from anything, but it doesn’t mean God authored the negative events to teach us a lesson.
We can learn everything we need to know through His word and His Spirit. As we follow their instructions, we won’t need to have everything taken from us in order to learn gratefulness. God’s word will tell us to be grateful and His Spirit will show us areas where we can be more appreciative. As we listen to our teachers, we won’t have to accept sickness this time of year, every year. We can be taught in Exodus 23:25 NLT how God protects us from illness. The Holy Spirit will guide us on what foods we need to eat or not eat and where we need to go or not go in order to maintain that protection.
God has not nor will He temporarily employ Satan to teach us a lesson. He’s already got that covered. His word and His Spirit are the teachers.
