God is also Free and Sovereign

The Lord does whatever pleases Him

"The LORD does whatever pleases him, in the heavens and on the earth, in the seas and all their depths."  (Psalm 135:6 NIV)

"The Lord does whatever He wishes.  Even if things are not going according to our plan,  they are going according to God’s plan.  Whatever is happening right now may not be what we like, but it is what we need.  Everything is unfolding exactly as it should."  (Kristin Armstrong -  LIVING FAITH 2015)

Stop doubting and believe

Unless I see I will not believe

"So the other disciples kept telling him, We have seen the Lord! But he said to them, Unless I see in His hands the marks made by the nails and put my finger into the nail prints, and put my hand into His side, I will never believe [it]. "
(John 20:25 AMP)

" Then Jesus said to Thomas, “Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe.”   (John 20:27 NIV)

Unless I become rich, I will not believe...
Unless I am healed, I will not believe..
What is your UNLESS?

So the two went on together."  (Genesis 22:7-8 AMP)

Angel of life and death

Death came through the envy of the devil.  Jesus Christ abolished death.

"God did not make death,
nor does he rejoice in the destruction of the living."

"But by the envy of the devil, death entered the world, and they who are allied with him experience it."   (Wisdom 1: 13; 2: 24 NABRE)

"Our Savior Jesus Christ,  has abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel."  (2 Timothy 1:10 NKJV)
