NO, God doesn't heal everyone....yet | STF Podcast Ep. 12

In this episode of Singing Through Fire, Lara Silverman wrestles with a painful question many sufferers ask: if God is sovereign, why doesn’t He heal everyone? Drawing from her own eight-year battle with a rare neurological disease and the loss of her husband Matt to stage four cancer, she examines key biblical passages about healing, challenges prosperity gospel assumptions, and explains why unanswered prayers are not proof of weak faith. Lara emphasizes that God’s promises must be read in context and that God acts according to His will, not human timelines, while still being near to the brokenhearted. She encourages listeners to keep praying for healing, to submit to God’s will when healing doesn’t come, and to anchor hope in the certainty of complete healing and deliverance in eternity.
