Introduction
In Job 14:1,2 it is written that “Man that is born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble. He cometh forth like a flower, and is cut down: he fleeth also as a shadow, and continueth not.” (Job 14:1, 2) This statement is very true as mankind is exposed to various kinds of ailments such as cancers, hypertension, diabetes, Alzheimer etc. Even for diseases for which the drugs to treat or manage them have been found, other strains of them emerge which pose fresh challenges to medical personnel and to the patients. However, the promise of God in the Scriptures is that whatsoever any individual is passing or experiencing as a form of illness will be healed by Him according to His will, in His due time, when we have faith in Him. (Jeremiah 17:14;33:6;Psalm 103:3 etc.) For the fact that health is wealth, the most important asset we have, it is a sensitive issue that requires close or serious attention. Terminal diseases present singular challenges to people of faith. They are yet to be fully understood and no cures are available. Since the secret things belong to God, it is to Him we must turn in matters too high for us to understand or solve. – Deuteronomy 29:29.
