HEALING for Celine

 Psalm 25:14

King James Version

14 The secret of the Lord is with them that fear him; 

and he will shew them his covenant.


I am not a fan of Celine Dion.

As I am not a fan of any man, or woman.

I only WORSHIP GOD.

But something about Celine's health issues called my attention.

So I turn to SPIRIT, and Scripture, for an explanation.

I wanted to know the root cause of her illness, if any.

What are the possible causes of her illness?

Is it genetic, physiological, psychological, or spiritual?

Is it external, or internal?

Would all be involved?

What is her hope for a cure?

Let's take a look.


On December 2022, she disclosed that she suffers from "Stiff-person syndrome".

I've seen her recent video which showed her actually suffering from it.

Today, SPIRIT led me to this particular paragraph on ET online:

"Dion teared up as she announced the cancellation of European tour dates, noting that she was doing everything in her power to be able to perform again."


I love how SPIRIT is so PRECISE.

These KEY words gave Celine's condition away:

"she was doing everything in her power"


It is a common mistake in many of us.

We think we have the power to change our circumstances.

But GOD always CORRECTS us all:

Zechariah 4:6

King James Version

6 Then he answered and spake unto me, saying

This is the word of the Lord 

unto Zerubbabel, saying, 

Not by might, 

nor by power, 

but by my spirit, 

saith the Lord of hosts.


If that doesn't make you tremble, feeling the MAGNIFICENT POWER of GOD's SPIRIT, I don't know what will.

JESUS corrects us all, too:

John 15:5

King James Version

5 I am the vine, 

ye are the branches: 

He that abideth in me, and I in him, 

the same bringeth forth much fruit

for without me ye can do nothing.


I love how Scripture zeroes in to what the world tries to deny.

That ONLY THROUGH JESUS can we be healed.

That His SPIRIT does the healing.

That, without Him, we can't do anything.

Very humbling, indeed.


Of course, that would put a lot of industries out of business.

Precisely why they don't want you to know GOD's POWER.

Not only that, but this world is governed by a different god.

Apart from our many "idols" such as face, fame, and fortune.

Same as pride, possessions, and popularity.

The world makes "divas" goddesses.

That's why unbelievers are in GREAT danger.

2 Corinthians 4:4

King James Version

4 In whom the god of this world 

hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, 

lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ

who is the image of God, 

should shine unto them.


Another indication was how Celine had children.

"In May 2000, Dion had two small operations at a fertility clinic in New York to improve her chances of conceiving, after deciding to use in vitro fertilization because of years of failed attempts to conceive. Their first son, René-Charles Angélil, was born on 25 January 2001. Dion suffered a miscarriage in 2009. In May 2010, Dion announced that she was 14 weeks pregnant with twins after a sixth treatment of in vitro fertilization. On Saturday, 23 October 2010, at 11:11 and 11:12 am respectively, Dion gave birth to fraternal twins by Caesarean section"

-- Wikipedia


It is not wrong to want to have children.

But this is what the Bible says:

Genesis 30:22

King James Version

22 And God remembered Rachel, 

and God hearkened to her, 

and opened her womb.


1 Samuel 1:5-6

King James Version

5 But unto Hannah he gave a worthy portion; 

for he loved Hannah*: 

but the Lord had shut up her womb.

6 And her adversary also provoked her sore, 

for to make her fret, 

because the Lord had shut up her womb.


Psalm 127:3

King James Version

3 Lo, children are an heritage of the Lord: 

and the fruit of the womb is his reward.


A couple's ability to have children rests solely upon GOD's will.

It is not for the medical profession to defy GOD's will.

It is not for couples to pay doctors so they could have a child.

It is not for man to use science, when only GOD can give life.

It is not for man to have "designer" babies.

It is not for man to play GOD.

That is all vanity.

At what cost?

Only GOD knows.


Now, remember this about the medical profession.

Something many don't care to acknowledge.

For their own vested interests.

Doctors pay homage to other gods through their Hippocratic Oath:

"I swear by Apollo Healer, by Asclepius, by Hygieia, by Panacea, and by all the gods and goddesses, making them my witnesses, that I will carry out, according to my ability and judgment, this oath and this indenture."

-- Wikipedia


That is idolatry.

We put our power in gods, goddesses, and self.

Does it surprise us, then, what the medical field does?

With no respect, or love, for GOD.

How far have we gone to defy GOD's creation?

We are all ripe for judgment.

Which will surely come.


Lastly, Celine created in 2018, together with two Israeli women, a children's clothing line called Celinununu.

It saddens me that they would do that to children.

Making infants and children wear black, with skulls, and stars.

Some shirts imprinted with the words, "NEW ORDER".

We are surely "OUT of ORDER".

Celine, and her Jewish partners, have no idea their sin.

But we shall look into that in another article SPIRIT wants me to write.


It's not only about not being content with the usual pink for girls; blue for boys.

They had to have gender-neutral clothing, which dulls the children's spirits.

JESUS said:

Matthew 18:6-7

King James Version

6 But whoso shall offend 

one of these little ones which believe in me, 

it were better for him that a millstone 

were hanged about his neck, 

and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.

7 Woe unto the world because of offences! 

for it must needs be that offences come; 

but woe to that man 

by whom the offence cometh!


We  must not put "stumbling blocks" on other people's paths.

Most of all young souls, such as infants and children.

Who have no idea what we make them do.

Romans 14:13

King James Version

13 Let us not therefore judge one another any more: 

but judge this rather, 

that no man put a stumblingblock 

or an occasion to fall 

in his brother's way.


To everything Celine is suffering from, I ask a few questions:

Has she forgotten GOD?

Does she believe in GOD at all?

What is her concept of GOD?

Can she acknowledge that ONLY JESUS can heal her?

Is she aware of her errors against GOD, and children?


When I saw her suffering from "Stiff-person syndrome", showing her all twisted up, and a very frightening face, I could only recall an article SPIRIT and I wrote on 15 January 2023:

"SPIRIT of INFIRMITY"


I am confident ONLY JESUS can heal her.

She must give her heart to the LORD.

She must become born again.

She must be taught by SPIRIT about JESUS.

She must drop EVERYTHING that doesn't honor the LORD.


If you are in need of healing, turn to JESUS.

ONLY JESUS can heal us, of ALL our ills.

GOD's POWER over HEALTH

 

Jeremiah 17:5

King James Version

5 Thus saith the Lord; 

Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, 

and maketh flesh his arm, 

and whose heart departeth 

from the Lord.


Many don't realize GOD's power over everything.

But how could you, unless you're born again?

That's the only way we receive His SPIRIT.

It is SPIRIT Who teaches us GOD's TRUTH.

It is SPIRIT Who teaches us that JESUS is the Divine Healer.

It is SPIRIT Who teaches us to GLORIFY GOD.

It is SPIRIT Who teaches us about GOD's wrath.

It is SPIRIT Who teaches us about Scripture.


It is only GOD Who has REAL power.

Especially regarding health.

Whether it be of mind, body, or spirit.

SPIRIT gives us proof, through these verses.

On actual, or symbolic ailments.

Of man, and nations.

Numbers 21:5-6

King James Version

5 And the people spake against God, 

and against Moses, 

Wherefore have ye brought us up out of Egypt 

to die in the wilderness? 

for there is no bread, 

neither is there any water; 

and our soul loatheth this light bread.

6 And the Lord sent fiery serpents among the people, 

and they bit the people; 

and much people of Israel died.


1 Samuel 16:14-23

King James Version

14 But the Spirit of the Lord departed from Saul, 

and an evil spirit from the Lord troubled him.

15 And Saul's servants said unto him, 

Behold now, 

an evil spirit from God troubleth thee.

16 Let our lord now command thy servants, 

which are before thee, 

to seek out a man, 

who is a cunning player on an harp: 

and it shall come to pass, 

when the evil spirit from God is upon thee, 

that he shall play with his hand, 

and thou shalt be well.

17 And Saul said unto his servants, 

Provide me now a man that can play well, 

and bring him to me.

18 Then answered one of the servants, 

and said, Behold, 

I have seen a son of Jesse the Bethlehemite, 

that is cunning in playing, 

and a mighty valiant man, 

and a man of war, 

and prudent in matters, 

and a comely person, 

and the Lord is with him.

19 Wherefore Saul sent messengers unto Jesse, 

and said, 

Send me David thy son, which is with the sheep.

20 And Jesse took an ass laden with bread, 

and a bottle of wine, and a kid, 

and sent them by David his son unto Saul.

21 And David came to Saul, 

and stood before him: 

and he loved him greatly; 

and he became his armourbearer.

22 And Saul sent to Jesse, 

saying, 

Let David, I pray thee, stand before me; 

for he hath found favour in my sight.

23 And it came to pass, 

when the evil spirit from God was upon Saul, 

that David took an harp, 

and played with his hand: 

so Saul was refreshed, 

and was well, 

and the evil spirit departed from him.


2 Chronicles 16:12-13

King James Version

12 And Asa in the thirty and ninth year of his reign 

was diseased in his feet, 

until his disease was exceeding great: 

yet in his disease he sought not to the Lord, 

but to the physicians.

13 And Asa slept with his fathers, 

and died in the one and fortieth year of his reign.


Isaiah 1:4-8

King James Version

4 Ah sinful nation, 

a people laden with iniquity, 

a seed of evildoers, 

children that are corrupters: 

they have forsaken the Lord, 

they have provoked the Holy One of Israel unto anger, 

they are gone away backward.

5 Why should ye be stricken any more? 

ye will revolt more and more: 

the whole head is sick, 

and the whole heart faint.

6 From the sole of the foot even unto the head 

there is no soundness in it; 

but wounds, and bruises, and putrifying sores: 

they have not been closed, 

neither bound up, 

neither mollified with ointment.

7 Your country is desolate, 

your cities are burned with fire: 

your land, strangers devour it in your presence, 

and it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers.

8 And the daughter of Zion 

is left as a cottage in a vineyard, 

as a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, 

as a besieged city.


Jeremiah 30:12-15

King James Version

12 For thus saith the Lord, 

Thy bruise is incurable, 

and thy wound is grievous.

13 There is none to plead thy cause, 

that thou mayest be bound up: 

thou hast no healing medicines.

14 All thy lovers have forgotten thee; 

they seek thee not; 

for I have wounded thee 

with the wound of an enemy, 

with the chastisement of a cruel one, 

for the multitude of thine iniquity; 

because thy sins were increased.

15 Why criest thou for thine affliction? 

thy sorrow is incurable for the multitude of thine iniquity: 

because thy sins were increased, 

I have done these things unto thee.


Jeremiah 46:11

King James Version

11 Go up into Gilead, 

and take balm, 

O virgin, the daughter of Egypt: 

in vain shalt thou use many medicines; 

for thou shalt not be cured.


Ezekiel 30:20-24

King James Version

20 And it came to pass in the eleventh year, 

in the first month, 

in the seventh day of the month, 

that the word of the Lord came unto me, 

saying,

21 Son of man, 

I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt; 

and, lo, it shall not be bound up to be healed, 

to put a roller to bind it, 

to make it strong to hold the sword.

22 Therefore thus saith the Lord God; 

Behold, 

I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt, 

and will break his arms, 

the strong, and that which was broken; 

and I will cause the sword to fall out of his hand.

23 And I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, 

and will disperse them through the countries.

24 And I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, 

and put my sword in his hand: 

but I will break Pharaoh's arms, 

and he shall groan before him 

with the groanings of a deadly wounded man.


Mark 5:25-26

King James Version

25 And a certain woman, 

which had an issue of blood twelve years,

26 And had suffered many things of many physicians, 

and had spent all that she had, 

and was nothing bettered, 

but rather grew worse,


1 Corinthians 2:14

King James Version

14 But the natural man receiveth not 

the things of the Spirit of God: 

for they are foolishness unto him: 

neither can he know them, 

because they are spiritually discerned.


1 John 3:17

King James Version

17 But whoso hath this world's good, 

and seeth his brother have need, 

and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, 

how dwelleth the love of God in him?


Revelation 18:23-24

King James Version

23 And the light of a candle 

shall shine no more at all in thee; 

and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride 

shall be heard no more at all in thee: 

for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; 

for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived.

24 And in her was found the blood of prophets, 

and of saints, 

and of all that were slain upon the earth.


If we are in need of healing, we need to trust GOD.

Jeremiah 17:7-8

King James Version

7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, 

and whose hope the Lord is.

8 For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, 

and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, 

and shall not see when heat cometh, 

but her leaf shall be green; 

and shall not be careful in the year of drought, 

neither shall cease from yielding fruit.


We need to repent of our sins, if healing is to take place in self, and nations:

2 Chronicles 7:14

King James Version

14 If my people, 

which are called by my name, 

shall humble themselves, 

and pray, 

and seek my face, 

and turn from their wicked ways; 

then will I hear from heaven, 

and will forgive their sin, 

and will heal their land.

What CAUSES diseases?

 

The future for believers:

Revelation 21:4

King James Version

4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; 

and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, 

nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: 

for the former things are passed away.


I've always had great interest in well-being.

Perhaps, that comes from having a father as a doctor.

Whose brilliance, I delighted in.

Plus, my natural desire to see people well.

As a columnist once, I was tasked to write about wellness.

And did tons of research on health and fitness.

All the while, marveling at how GOD made the body so intelligent.

And that, given the right care and prevention, we should all be well.

But my understanding was largely incomplete.

Only when GOD made me born again did I understand better.

SPIRIT led me to Scripture.

Showing me how JESUS healed.

JESUS was the missing piece to my research.

Now, I can look at health in a different light.

Comparing how JESUS healed, and how the world did.

Suffice it to say, I am in great awe of the MAGNIFICENT Healer.

Making sure I abide by His commands.

Scripture can answer these:

Why do people get sick?

How do they get sick?

How do we get well?

Who can heal us?

What gives lasting healing?


Never again will we wonder why we get sick.

Or if we will ever get well.

Or why we suffer, as we do.

Let's turn to the WORD of GOD.

That Scripture may reveal the source and reason for illness:


For GOD's purpose, and judgment.

Exodus 7:3-5

King James Version

3 And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, 

and multiply my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt.

4 But Pharaoh shall not hearken unto you, 

hat I may lay my hand upon Egypt, 

and bring forth mine armies, and my people 

the children of Israel, 

out of the land of Egypt by great judgments.

5 And the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord, 

when I stretch forth mine hand upon Egypt, 

and bring out the children of Israel 

from among them.


Exodus 8:16-19

King James Version

16 And the Lord said unto Moses, 

Say unto Aaron, 

Stretch out thy rod, and smite the dust of the land, 

that it may become lice throughout all the land of Egypt.

17 And they did so; 

for Aaron stretched out his hand with his rod, 

and smote the dust of the earth, 

and it became lice in man, and in beast; 

all the dust of the land became lice 

throughout all the land of Egypt.

18 And the magicians did so with their enchantments 

to bring forth lice, but they could not: 

so there were lice upon man, and upon beast.

19 Then the magicians said unto Pharaoh, 

This is the finger of God: 

and Pharaoh's heart was hardened, 

and he hearkened not unto them; 

as the Lord had said.


Exodus 9:1-7

King James Version

9 Then the Lord said unto Moses, 

Go in unto Pharaoh, and tell him, 

Thus saith the Lord God of the Hebrews, 

Let my people go, that they may serve me.

2 For if thou refuse to let them go, 

and wilt hold them still,

3 Behold, 

the hand of the Lord is upon thy cattle 

which is in the field, 

upon the horses, upon the asses, upon the camels, 

upon the oxen, and upon the sheep: 

there shall be a very grievous murrain*.

4 And the Lord shall sever between the cattle of Israel 

and the cattle of Egypt: 

and there shall nothing die 

of all that is the children's of Israel.

5 And the Lord appointed a set time, saying, 

To morrow the Lord shall do this thing in the land.

6 And the Lord did that thing on the morrow, 

and all the cattle of Egypt died: 

but of the cattle of the children of Israel died not one.

7 And Pharaoh sent, and, behold, 

there was not one of the cattle of the Israelites dead. 

And the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, 

and he did not let the people go.

(*murrain is a pestilence/plague affecting domestic animals)


Exodus 9:8-11

King James Version

8 And the Lord said unto Moses and unto Aaron, 

Take to you handfuls of ashes of the furnace, 

and let Moses sprinkle it toward the heaven 

in the sight of Pharaoh.

9 And it shall become small dust in all the land of Egypt, 

and shall be a boil breaking forth 

with blains upon man, and upon beast, 

throughout all the land of Egypt.

10 And they took ashes of the furnace, 

and stood before Pharaoh; 

and Moses sprinkled it up toward heaven; 

and it became a boil breaking forth with blains 

upon man, and upon beast.

11 And the magicians could not stand before Moses 

because of the boils; for the boil was upon the magicians, 

and upon all the Egyptians.


Exodus 9:13-17

King James Version

13 And the Lord said unto Moses, 

Rise up early in the morning, 

and stand before Pharaoh, and say unto him, 

Thus saith the Lord God of the Hebrews, 

Let my people go, that they may serve me.

14 For I will at this time 

send all my plagues upon thine heart, 

and upon thy servants, and upon thy people; 

that thou mayest know 

that there is none like me in all the earth.

15 For now I will stretch out my hand, 

that I may smite thee and thy people with pestilence; 

and thou shalt be cut off from the earth.

16 And in very deed for this cause have I raised thee up, 

for to shew in thee my power; 

and that my name may be declared 

throughout all the earth.

17 As yet exaltest thou thyself against my people, 

that thou wilt not let them go?


Exodus 11:1

King James Version

11 And the Lord said unto Moses, 

Yet will I bring one plague more upon Pharaoh, 

and upon Egypt; 

afterwards he will let you go hence: 

when he shall let you go, 

he shall surely thrust you out hence altogether.


Exodus 11:4-7

King James Version

4 And Moses said, Thus saith the Lord, 

About midnight will I go out into the midst of Egypt:

5 And all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, 

from the first born of Pharaoh 

that sitteth upon his throne, 

even unto the firstborn of the maidservant 

that is behind the mill; 

and all the firstborn of beasts.

6 And there shall be a great cry 

throughout all the land of Egypt, 

such as there was none like it, 

nor shall be like it any more.

7 But against any of the children of Israel 

shall not a dog move his tongue, 

against man or beast: 

that ye may know how that the Lord doth put 

a difference between the Egyptians 

and Israel.


Exodus 13:15-16

King James Version

15 And it came to pass, 

when Pharaoh would hardly let us go, 

that the Lord slew all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, 

both the firstborn of man, 

and the firstborn of beast: 

therefore I sacrifice to the Lord 

all that openeth the matrix, being males; 

but all the firstborn of my children I redeem.

16 And it shall be for a token upon thine hand, 

and for frontlets between thine eyes: 

for by strength of hand 

the Lord brought us forth out of Egypt.


We have been wicked.

2 Chronicles 7:14

King James Version

14 If my people, which are called by my name, 

shall humble themselves, 

and pray, 

and seek my face, 

and turn from their wicked ways; 

then will I hear from heaven, 

and will forgive their sin, 

and will heal their land.


We have not sought GOD, the fountain of life.

Psalm 36:9

King James Version

9 For with thee is the fountain of life: 

in thy light shall we see light.


We have been evil.

Jeremiah 18:8

King James Version

8 If that nation, 

against whom I have pronounced, 

turn from their evil, 

I will repent of the evil 

that I thought to do unto them.


That Scripture may be fulfilled regarding JESUS.

Matthew 8:16-17

King James Version

16 When the even was come, 

they brought unto him 

many that were possessed with devils: 

and he cast out the spirits with his word, 

and healed all that were sick:

17 That it might be fulfilled 

which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, 

saying, 

Himself took our infirmities, 

and bare our sicknesses.


We have sinned.

Matthew 9:1-2

King James Version

9 And he entered into a ship, 

and passed over, and came into his own city.

2 And, behold, 

they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, 

lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith 

said unto the sick of the palsy; 

Son, be of good cheer; 

thy sins be forgiven thee.


We have been possessed with a devil.

Matthew 9:32-33

King James Version

32 As they went out, 

behold, they brought to him a dumb man 

possessed with a devil.

33 And when the devil was cast out, 

the dumb spake: 

and the multitudes marvelled, 

saying, 

It was never so seen in Israel.


Matthew 12:22

King James Version

22 Then was brought unto him 

one possessed with a devil, 

blind, and dumb: 

and he healed him, 

insomuch that the blind and dumb 

both spake and saw.


We have not believed in JESUS, the Son of God.

Matthew 13:58

King James Version

58 And he did not many mighty works there 

because of their unbelief.


We need to repent of our sins.

Luke 5:32

King James Version

32 I came not to call the righteous, 

but sinners to repentance.


As disciples of CHRIST, we take up our cross daily -- without complaint.

Luke 9:23

King James Version

23 And he said to them all, 

If any man will come after me, 

let him deny himself, 

and take up his cross daily, 

and follow me.


We have a spirit of infirmity.

Luke 13:11

King James Version

11 And, behold, 

there was a woman 

which had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, 

and was bowed together, 

and could in no wise lift up herself.


We are lost.

Luke 19:10

King James Version

10 For the Son of man 

is come to seek and to save 

that which was lost.


We must stop sinning.

John 5:13-14

King James Version

13 And he that was healed wist not who it was: 

for Jesus had conveyed himself away, 

a multitude being in that place.

14 Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, 

and said unto him, 

Behold, thou art made whole: 

sin no more, 

lest a worse thing come unto thee.


That the works of God may be made manifest in us who suffer.

John 9:1-3

King James Version

9 And as Jesus passed by, 

he saw a man which was blind from his birth.

2 And his disciples asked him, saying, 

Master, who did sin, 

this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?

3 Jesus answered, 

Neither hath this man sinned, 

nor his parents: 

but that the works of God 

should be made manifest in him.


We love our lives in this world too much.

John 12:25

King James Version

25 He that loveth his life shall lose it; 

and he that hateth his life in this world

shall keep it unto life eternal.


Being in the world calls for tribulation.

John 16:33

King James Version

33 These things I have spoken unto you, 

that in me ye might have peace. 

In the world ye shall have tribulation: 

but be of good cheer; 

I have overcome the world.


All of us have sinned.

Romans 3:23

King James Version

23 For all have sinned, 

and come short of the glory of God;


As Adam sinned, death entered our lives.

Romans 5:12

King James Version

12 Wherefore, 

as by one man sin entered into the world, 

and death by sin; 

and so death passed upon all men, 

for that all have sinned:


We have not glorified GOD in our bodies.

1 Corinthians 6:19-20

King James Version

19 What? 

know ye not that your body 

is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, 

which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?

20 For ye are bought with a price: 

therefore glorify God in your body, 

and in your spirit, which are God's.


All men die.

2 Corinthians 1:9

King James Version

9 But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, 

that we should not trust in ourselves, 

but in God which raiseth the dead:


We need to cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of flesh and spirit. We need to be holy.

2 Corinthians 7:1

King James Version

7 Having therefore these promises, 

dearly beloved, 

let us cleanse ourselves 

from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, 

perfecting holiness in the fear of God.


We frustrate the grace of GOD.

Galatians 2:21

King James Version

21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: 

for if righteousness come by the law, 

then Christ is dead in vain.


We remain the "old" men that we are. We need to be born again in CHRIST.

Ephesians 4:24

King James Version

24 And that ye put on the new man, 

which after God is created 

in righteousness and true holiness.


We have given ourselves to the world's vanities.

Colossians 2:8-9

King James Version

8 Beware lest any man spoil you 

through philosophy and vain deceit, 

after the tradition of men, 

after the rudiments of the world, 

and not after Christ.

9 For in him dwelleth 

all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.


We have fallen into many foolish and hurtful lusts.

1 Timothy 6:9

King James Version

9 But they that will be rich 

fall into temptation and a snare, 

and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, 

which drown men in destruction 

and perdition.


We seek money too much.

1 Timothy 6:10

King James Version

10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: 

which while some coveted after, 

they have erred from the faith, 

and pierced themselves through 

with many sorrows.


We are under the snare of the devil.

2 Timothy 2:26

King James Version

26 And that they may recover themselves 

out of the snare of the devil, 

who are taken captive by him 

at his will.


We have turned away from GOD.

2 Timothy 3:1-7

King James Version

3 This know also, that in the last days 

perilous times shall come.

2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, 

covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, 

disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, 

false accusers, incontinent, fierce, 

despisers of those that are good,

4 Traitors, heady, highminded, 

lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;

5 Having a form of godliness, 

but denying the power thereof: 

from such turn away.

6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, 

and lead captive silly women laden with sins, 

led away with divers lusts,

7 Ever learning, and never able to come 

to the knowledge of the truth.


We live as the world does -- in sin.

Titus 3:3

King James Version

3 For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, 

disobedient, deceived, 

serving divers lusts and pleasures, 

living in malice and envy, 

hateful, and hating one another.


We are foolishly proud.

James 4:6

King James Version

6 But he giveth more grace. 

Wherefore he saith, 

God resisteth the proud, 

but giveth grace unto the humble.


We have not submitted ourselves to GOD.

James 4:7

King James Version

7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. 

Resist the devil, 

and he will flee from you.


We do not seek GOD. We are not holy. We need to purify our hearts.

James 4:8

King James Version

8 Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. 

Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; 

and purify your hearts, ye double minded.


We don't pray.

James 5:13

King James Version

13 Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. 

Is any merry? let him sing psalms.


We need forgiveness from the LORD.

James 5:15

King James Version

15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, 

and the Lord shall raise him up; 

and if he have committed sins, 

they shall be forgiven him.


It is the will of GOD.

1 Peter 3:17

King James Version

17 For it is better, if the will of God be so, 

that ye suffer for well doing, than for evil doing.
