    It's true that God will intervene and answer prayers. I am living proof of that.
    I had throat cancer. After 6 weeks of chemo and radiation treatments, I was declared cancer free. A couple months later. I got pneumonia and my throat started swelling.
    Two different doctors told my family that my cancer had come back. They both said I'd live about 8 months with chemo or 3 months with out it. They didn't tell me.
    When my pastor got the news, he gathered up some men from our church and did an anointing on me.
    Now I an cancer free. The power of prayer combine with faith and God, is an awesome power.
    I thank and praise God every day for that miracle. It happened just 5 weeks ago.

    I think some people forget how HUGE free will is. Free will "our own doings" are most of the reason's why people die of certain things. is what i think. Great question.

    • @freedomlover8412
      @freedomlover8412 3 года назад

      I dont see how chance is going to help her or her daughter. But the gospel (good nees) that Jesus died for our sins will comfort much. Therefore comfort one another with these words. Too many lazy people just want to follow what men say instead of reading for themselves. If they read for themselves they would not need to ask him. Then they get born again, and then read some more and the Holy Spirit teach all things. Also on a different note, luck and chance are not the same.

  • @Fastlane05
    @Fastlane05 4 года назад +14

    I believe the root of the word Luck is Lucifer, as in Lady Luck, etc. Luck has to do with numerology, necromancy and sorcery. Chance, on the other hand is just a statistical anomaly. Chance is the correct phrase. On the other hand there is Divine intervention, also known as miracles.

  • @michaelanderson4395
    @michaelanderson4395 4 года назад +4

    I think Chuck Missler presented an answer to this situation very well. He explains that God abides in eternity, outside the dimension of time and that he can see all of time, past present and future (all at once, if you will). He can see the beginning, end and all points in between and still sees Jesus on the cross, even today. We can't really wrap our heads around this because we are in the stream of time but we can illustrate it with a line representing the beginning to the end and draw a circle outside of that line, representing where God abides. We still can make our life choices and no matter what the outcome, God sees it as it was, is and "will be". It's all "was" to God. We are in the stream of time and so it is impossible for us to truly understand.

    This is a though one for me. Since I have become a Christian I have always felt like I will die when God says it is time for me to die that does not mean I can not cause my death though. I have seen God save my life so many times I can not count them all and most I can not honestly say why I was saved. Some of them was because asked for it other times it seemed like I was saved to complete a task or to influence those around me. While I do think we have influence on how we may die and to some extent when. I think God is the final say. I think he give us an assignment for life and we do our best complete our purpose in life. Even our death have a purpose and a plan. Look at Paul even his death reflected Christ to the world

Isaiah told him God was going to take him out...I couldn't understand why after a prophet of God told a man his future that God changed his mind and let Hezekiah live. So my curiosity needed to know why was God going to let Hezekiah die...I found the answer in
    2 Chronicles 32:25&26.

  • @solidsnake6405

    I had an epiphany about this after pondering this question a few years back.
    My conclusion is that our life is like a Maze that has MANY MANY MANY different endings and dates,maybe even near infinite!! our free will allows US to choose which path we take that will lead to one of those endings.
    God has seen our entire Maze and all of its endings before we were born,he sees the path we are on now along with the likely outcome and if he sees fit he can try and Persuade us on to a different path(see Saul of Tarsus) however he respects our free will and will not break it no matter what.
