Dear "John", That was a good question. Hope you get more answers that are grounded in the Word dear friend. Just want to give you a new thought here. But God actually repented that He created man in any case! I advise you to go ahead and not think so much about things that are difficult right now. Because you find out. He who seeks he finds.
Dear "Carl F Fleenor", it is never easy when one does not see the healing. What did Jesus say in Matthew 17:14-21 ? It is there even in a state of invisibility. You have to go in everything you ask for. As i pray and read in the word of God every day, i feel that the Lord Jesus heals me every day. See me a poor man who does not even know what i am asking for! He says that the answer is on its way! Think how great a joy it is in Heaven for people to be saved. That is the most important thing of all. ps. In my life there has been illness from day 1. If I now end up in hospital, I testify even more for Jesus. So even the wicked refuse me to go to the hospital. :D
Let's say we ask for a sore shoulder. This does not mean that we should go with the arm in the sling, but use it and soo on. If you ask to buy a new car for the one you have, it will fall apart. Pray to the Lord, and even if you are afraid, He will help you to cope with the stress of buying a car. Go in it with thanks!
I once met a young lady who said: God helps those who help themselves. I have thought about these words a lot. Because they are true in a way. For we must enter into healing, into the church, into the blessing. Then we understand that the Lord has done for us. Then the thanksgiving and His glory will be much much more. Thank for everything.
It is an honor to God that we walk in His way. My grace is sufficient for you, said the Lord to Paul. And those are strong words, but we will also meet Paul sometime in the future. The words also apply to us. We never know when. But we know the day is coming. May God bless u and her with all Spiritual wisdom in Him who will have all Glory and Power forever, Amen Hope this was helpful. Love u in Christ.
GOD wants HIS children to have a little bit of common sense; I am not saying that to talk down to anyone, it's just fact. If you want take the 2 verses as gospel for what it clearly states, than it is for certain you want see, not even important. All that overcome become brides of CHRIST! You cannot be brides if we are male and female. You can look at it in the spiritual sense and physical; Rom 11:8. Will leave it with this: All rudiments, elements that causes sin will be done away with; what has caused sin? Abominations? What defiles? Rev 21:27
I agree with the answers here and feel that besides study and thinking deeply on God's word that prayer can be another form of meditation. The healthy kind, not the worldly polluted kind.
I was ministering today to a lady who asked me why as a Christian she was having to go through all the health issues she was having. She is faithful to the church and a great person. She can not understand why she is so sick. I struggled to give her answers. I hope someone can help me answer her.
This is an interesting thread, and a topic much discussed in Christendom today!
I agree with you, Marke. I don't believe the 'sons of God' are angels. Not one of the old time preachers/commentators I've read believed so either.
I believe the godly line of Seth began to degenerate and instead of taking godly women to themselves for the sake of maintaining a holy race, they looked upon the fair daughters of men and began to mix, believers and unbelievers....much like today's ecumenism.
Once there was no holy race left that was totally devoted to the One true God...destruction ensued!
The sad thing about history is that we don't learn from history, Marke! What has been is again...and the crazy thing is, people do the same things as those 'back then' did who apostasized, and are deluded into thinking they will come out of it all without ending up with the same tragic results as they did in the past! Lord, help us!
T. Levis answer was very good! I only want to add that 'meditation' is something believers have always done, and been encouraged to do, in God's Word.
Satan, the great impostor, tries to counterfeit what God does. Thus we see false religions also practicing their own so-called 'meditation', but their 'meditation is so lame. They 'meditate' on crystals, candles, and every other kind of vanity, for they meditate not in God's Word! Their religions are a sham, a shame, and they are deceived!
If God know everything before it happened ,why did he create Lucifer if he knew he would rebel and make human sins too and bring them with him to hell. Why did he create Adam and Eve if he knew they would sins against him?
When Jesus Went Down to Hell - In Reply on John 19 - 1 year ago
Some believe that while Jesus' body was in the tomb, His spirit was in hell.Scripture doesn't support that position when it is taken in context and we look at the meaning of the word "hell." In the Old Testament, the place of the dead or the place of departed souls was called "SHEOL." It was to this place that all SOULS of the dead went to await resurrection.
In the New Testament, we find the story of Lazarus and the rich man who both died and went to Hades ( Luke 16:19-31). The KJV translates the Greek word "hades" as hell but most other translations use the Greek word. HADES had two separated parts: Those who died in faith believing in God's promise waited for the resurrection in Abraham's Bosom. Those who died spiritually separated from God wait in torment for the resurrection unto death, eternal separation from God. The rich man was on the torment side and Lazarus was in ABRAHAMS BOSOM which was called PARADISE by the LORD Jesus Christ himself when He addressed the thief who found faith the day Jesus was crucified ( Luke 23:42-43)
For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment" ( 2 Peter 2:4). The word translated HELL here is not the Greek word HADES but is the Greek word TARTARUS meaning ABYSS or the lowest regions. This could very well be the GULF that was fixed between the PLACE OF TORMENT and Abraham's Bosom ( Luke 16:26).
Wherefore He saith, When JESUS ascended up on high, He led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men. Now that He ascended, what is it but that He also DESCENDED first into the lower parts of the earth? He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that He might fulfill all things. Ephesians 4:8-10)
Leading captivity captive seems to refer to Jesus taking all those that waited in Paradise, to heaven to be with Him. The descending into the "lower parts" then refers to Jesus mission of declaring Victory!
Good wisdom from you. Thanks. We can always speak the truth without engaging in a back and forth in a separate post. I think that it is always good in a format like this to present the true doctrines of our faith, despite what others will present that are false and dangerous to believe.
Ask The Holy Spirit To Take You to Your Shepherd - In Reply - 1 year ago
I lived in one of the most religious city's in the US. Tulsa, for 3 years. Went to church twice on Sundays and Wednesday (intercessory prayer group).
First church I tried, believed they should pair up all the single people do they could get married. I guess they didn't even have to be attracted to each other? I fled.
I was driving around on Sunday looking for a Baptist Church. When the Holy Spirit says: go up 3 Streets and make a left turn. I drive a couple of miles, when he says " turn in there". It was huge. I get joyfully greeted as the usher opens the door. I see a sea of black, brown, white, Asian, elderly church moms, deacons everywhere. They were all clapping to a song, bobbing or dancing, singing loudly. Heaven could hear that!!! The Holy Spirit said, " that is your shepherd." I sat down, but pretty soon I was clapping too. Joy was dripping off the rafters. I have cassettes of sermons I still listen to and cry.
My Pastor married a closet witch and years later Pastor became Apostate. Left the Church. Some people followed him__not JESUS. Pastor is on YouTube now preaching heresy and pro gay, transgender, if it feels good, do it. The Holy Spirit told me why he really left God.
It's a warning to all of us. If you let people lift you up, INSTEAD OF JESUS, you are in the wrong church.**Ask the Holy Spirit to take you to your Shepherd. One who will carry you in prayer, faithfully.**
All of you who are anointed by the Holy Spirit should follow His Leading. The anointing BREAKS THE YOKE OF SIN. The person is freed to hear the scriptural TRUTH.
I can't even count how many times, as a street minister, the Holy Spirit warned me, said go here go there, or stop for coffee and there would be someone who would see my ragged Bible and ask me if I believed the Good Book?
Don't be afraid to witness. It's the Power of God unto Salvation!! Some of us are called spiritual paramedics.
Eph.4:26 is not about anger against our brothers in the Lord or people in general, Be Angry, and sin not, it is against the devil
we are to be angry and don't let up on him, don't allow him to accuse you and bring you into fear and doubt the power of God.
Christians should make a stand and don't let their anger against the devil to stop, John 10;10, the devil is out to kill, steal and
destroy YOU so stop being passive! You have been given power and authority Luke 10:19, AMP read it- its time for the church to wakeup -your enemy is not the people - but the devil that's behind them. Corinthian 2:16, "You have the mind of Christ," Romans 8:11, " the same spirit that raised Christ from the dead is in you declare it 2Peter 1:3, 'His divine power has given us everything we need for a Godly life. This verse is not about you be angry all day but at sun set you can not be angry against your wife , your children your neighbor, your Mother or Father but be vigilant against the devil Jesus did it Matthew 16:23, Jesus turned and to Peter " Get behind me Satan", then sweet Jesus in John 2:13-16, goes after the money changers - amazing. So think again Ephesians 4:26, Blessings David
The Bible says that every man is distant die, it also says that during the rapture we will be taken up to meet the lord in the clouds. Will we die during the rapture?
Thank you for this day. Thank you for my husbands life, and my life. I ask that you would protect us from the schemes of the devil. He has been trying to distract us, frustrate us and tempt us to sin against each other. Holy Spirit enable us to resist the devils temptations and distractions. In moments of weakness please help us to give each other grace and forgiveness. Help us to support each other and be accountable on a daily basis; according to your Love. Please make me aware of any sin or unforgiveness that is at work in me, and the strength to repent and walk away from it. Help my mate to do the same. Increase our desire to stand together under Your Protection. Psalm 91. We desire to walk together according to your Word written in 1 Corinthians 13.
Feel free to add some more requests right here. Personalize.
Finding Love Through Gods Love For Us - In Reply on Joshua 1 - 1 year ago
You sound like me 40 years ago. My love life was many betrayals. I blamed God. Rama's far as I could, BUT He came to get me at my lowest point in life (near to death). He came to my house because I wasn't going to church.
He let me see Him, I felt like I had been resuscitated. Shocked. I was accused by a pal that astrology was FALSE. 2 Timothy 3:5. I had an old Bible, never opened. I read every scripture on stars, astrologers, false teachers, and then I saw the death sentence (promise) for being an astrologer.
My salvation was at home and I heard the wind of the Holy Spirit in my house!'
Please listen to me. In Song of Solomon, God says, I AM MY BELOVEDS AND MY BELOVED IS MINE. He says it 3 times. God loves you. That love is never going to leave you. He loves you so much, His Son bled and died for you. He is waiting to be the Lover of your soul. In Genesis 24 (I call it the True Romance Chapter).
God brings the man to his wife to be. She totally waters his camels with her veil on. She was obedient and fell in love at first sight of Isaac. She returned to his house on a journey, and was married in the presence of Isaacs ailing mother and with Abraham, Isaacs Dad. Time passes and it says that Isaac died with joy and happiness of that good marriage. Read it.
This time, after you fully commit your life to Jesus; pick a Bible Teaching Church. Help out in childrens church part time. Attend Singles meetings or start one: like potluck lunches after church. Be visible to the single guys. They are looking for a "Rebekah". A woman of character.
It's not about physical beauty. It's how a man knows to respect a woman. Meet her family. Let her Dad know she will be treated with respect. You'll find your mate
For now, ask the Lord to cleanse, restore your virtue, and make old memories and betrayals FADE_and restore to patient expectations.
Rekindle your relationship with your Dad. Ask him what made him pick your mother?
The Work of the Godhead in Genesis - In Reply - 1 year ago
Trinity, in Christian doctrine, the unity of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit as three persons in one Godhead. The doctrine of the Trinity is considered to be one of the central Christian affirmations about God. ROMANS 1:20
Comment: Beloved, the word Trinity is not in the King James Bible.
Another religion penned that word. It defines as, THREE. Like Tres, in Spanish means three. Etc
Romans 1:20 clearly shows that Godhead is Father, Son, Holy Spirit. Three in One.
Ephesians 4:5
One Lord, one faith, one baptism
1 Timothy 2:5
For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
1 Corinthians 12:13
For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into ONE Spirit.
Romans 1:20
For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and GODHEAD, so that they are without excuse:
Colossians 2:9
For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
GENESIS 1:1
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
2 And the earth was without form, and void; and DARKNESS was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God MOVED upon the face of the waters.
3 And God said, Let there be LIGHT: and there was light. [Jesus is Light]
God started Time, for man
Genesis 1:1
God SPOKE, Genesis 1:3
God Made, Genesis 1:7
Romans 1:20
We need to put our faith in God NO MATTER WHAT PEOPLE write in science websites. A mission to a planet will not explain creation. Dead planets have water beds; once having had water. But observations have proved no other planets have abundant water, visible, like Earth.
This is Gods Purpose. That we follow His Son, Jesus Christ in salvation with the baptism of the Holy Spirit.
All of the Beauty and Wonder of a self sustaining EARTH, should help us trust God and follow Jesus.

The Last Battle after the Tribulation - In Reply - 1 year ago
Revelation 14:20
And the winepress was trodden without the city, and blood came out of the winepress, even unto the horse bridles, by the space of a thousand and six hundred furlongs.
Revelation 19:19
And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him (JESUS) that sat on the horse, and against his army.
Revelation 19:21
And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his MOUTH: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.
[This passage uses the symbolism of grapes in a winepress to describe the eventual defeat of the wicked in the end times. As grapes are crushed and broken to release wine, the bodies of God's enemies will be smashed in a bloody defeat. Taken in absolutely literal terms, this verse describes a cascade of blood some five or six feet (2 meters) high and 180 miles (290 kilometers) long. Most interpreters see this as primarily symbolic. Some suggest that what's described is a 1600-stadia zone of carnage during battle, so violent that blood is splattered as high as the head of a horse.
Whether entirely or partly poetic, one thing is certain: this judgment creates a gory scene. Revelation 19:13 pictures Jesus as having blood on His robe as He rides into warfare against the wicked. Although some believe this is the blood Jesus shed on the cross, others see this as the blood of His enemies. The interpretation that it is the blood of His enemies is supported by the prophetic picture given in Isaiah 63:2-4. Jesus' defeat of His enemies at the end of the tribulation will be absolute and terrible.]
I am sorry to hear of your MS. Being diagnosed with MS may not have anything to do with something you're doing wrong. It definitely doesn't have anything to do with a lack of faith. There is no such thing as a person who has been born of the Spirit of God having a lack of faith because spiritual faith is not something we can produce. If you have received Christ, you have already healed. You have been healed spiritually. Sin is a spiritual disease and Jesus Christ is the remedy for that. That's what He heals us from, sin. Although He can and does heal people physically, there is no promise that He will always do so. But please know that whatever we suffer in the flesh, it has nothing to do with our lack of faith. You are doing nothing wrong!
This verse is often cited when referring to the collapse of godly authority. The Hebrew phrasing here can be taken in more than one way. This is most often translated as asking "if-or when-this happens, what can good people then do?" Another possibility is to render this as asking "what have good people accomplished?" In either case, this verse warns of catastrophic results when fundamental principles are destroyed. In David's immediate case, this refers to his role as Israel's king and the consequences of abandoning that role. In a more general sense, it speaks to the ruin a society will face when the most basic aspects of godliness are removed.
David knew what would happen if the enemy triumphed. Because he was Israel's king, if the enemy succeeded, the nation's very foundations would be destroyed. Law and order grounded in righteousness and justice, under the headship of the godly king, would crumble. Evil and chaos would ensue. What could the righteous do in such a situation? Of course, David believed he would prevail. He was sure that law and order would continue. His trust was in the Lord ( Psalm 11:4), therefore he was confident the enemy would not triumph.
Years later, God allowed Babylon to carry Israel into captivity because of her idolatry and neglect of the Sabbath. In both a symbolic and literal sense, the foundations were destroyed-including the demolition of the temple from its cornerstones. But in his perfect timing, God raised up Ezra to return to Jerusalem and lay the foundation ( Ezra 3). If doctrinal error destroys a church's foundation of truth, believers must restore the foundation before any healing can happen. Congregations must heed the Lord's admonitions to be and do what He desires ( Revelation 2:3)
The foundation of law and must be repaired and supported by the God loving community.
1st, because this scripture has put an emotion in you. I assume GOD is working on something within you, possibly to show you truth or study deeper.
2nd, pray for wisdom also James 1:5, in what GOD wants to reveal to you, deeper than I may show you.
3rd, to me I understand this Psalms 11, & Psalms 11:3, appears to be written by David, it seems to point to when he was being pursued by Saul into the mountains. Please read 1Samuel 19:10, 1Samuel 18:29, 1Samuel 23:26, could David be referring to the foundation being destroyed referring to himself? 1Kings 9:5, Jeremiah 33:17, Psalms 132:11, being the promise of GOD to establish HIS throne through David?
4th, because the temple wasn't made yet, 1Chronicles 28:3-21, Psalms 127:1,
5th, however David's Psalms were also prophetic like Psalms 22,
6th, Jesus being in the lineage of David: Matthew 22:42, Acts 13:22, Matthew 1:1,
7th, other scripture: Isaiah 28:16, 1Corinthians 3:11-17,
Spencer Isaiah 11 is using Jesse David and Solomon as symbolic language for a kingdom coming in the last days...When God was gonna set his hand a 2 nd time to recover the remnant of his ppl... Isaiah 11 : 7...But just think a minute Isaiah lived approx. 300 yrs AFTER Jesse David and Solomon but Isaiah is still using these 3 men as symbolic language for a kingdom coming in the last days...Which speaks volumes of the trinity being Father son and GRANSON...Solomon was the Granson that God wanted to build the great temply not David the Son...Ya see that ?....It was in the heart of David to build the temple...But God wd not let David the son build the temple...Why am i saying this...simply b/c Jesus is not gonna build the temple in our hearts...Its gonna be the H.G. that heavenly Solomon..That special son that came out of Davids loins is just prophetic of a special son that is gonna come out of Christ loins...When he breathe on them they received the H.G. The H.G. IS that child OF Promise that Greater then Solomon that is here Jesus mentions...As our bodies are the temple of the H.G.....OK I JUST WANTED TO MENTION THAT...I believe this JESSE DAVID SOLOMON RELATIONSHIP IS JUST PROPHETIC OF THE Father Son and the H.G....Which was liturally Father Son and Granson....As Solomon was the Granson....Remember Jesus said that it is expedient for you that I go away if i go not away the Comforter will not come....David had to die that Solomon wd be King....Jesus had to go away that the kingdom wd come...But Jesus said whosoever receiveth one such child in my name receiveth ME..GOD...ok
Genesis 6:6 Matthew 18

He let me see Him, I felt like I had been resuscitated. Shocked. I was accused by a pal that astrology was FALSE. 2 Timothy 3:5. I had an old Bible, never opened. I read every scripture on stars, astrologers, false teachers, and then I saw the death sentence (promise) for being an astrologer.
My salvation was at home and I heard the wind of the Holy Spirit in my house!'
Please listen to me. In Song of Solomon, God says, I AM MY BELOVEDS AND MY BELOVED IS MINE. He says it 3 times. God loves you. That love is never going to leave you. He loves you so much, His Son bled and died for you. He is waiting to be the Lover of your soul. In Genesis 24 (I call it the True Romance Chapter).
God brings the man to his wife to be. She totally waters his camels with her veil on. She was obedient and fell in love at first sight of Isaac. She returned to his house on a journey, and was married in the presence of Isaacs ailing mother and with Abraham, Isaacs Dad. Time passes and it says that Isaac died with joy and happiness of that good marriage. Read it.
This time, after you fully commit your life to Jesus; pick a Bible Teaching Church. Help out in childrens church part time. Attend Singles meetings or start one: like potluck lunches after church. Be visible to the single guys. They are looking for a "Rebekah". A woman of character.
It's not about physical beauty. It's how a man knows to respect a woman. Meet her family. Let her Dad know she will be treated with respect. You'll find your mate
For now, ask the Lord to cleanse, restore your virtue, and make old memories and betrayals FADE_and restore to patient expectations.
Rekindle your relationship with your Dad. Ask him what made him pick your mother?

Comment: Beloved, the word Trinity is not in the King James Bible.
Another religion penned that word. It defines as, THREE. Like Tres, in Spanish means three. Etc
Romans 1:20 clearly shows that Godhead is Father, Son, Holy Spirit. Three in One.
Ephesians 4:5
One Lord, one faith, one baptism
1 Timothy 2:5
For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
1 Corinthians 12:13
For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into ONE Spirit.
Romans 1:20
For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and GODHEAD, so that they are without excuse:
Colossians 2:9
For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
GENESIS 1:1
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
2 And the earth was without form, and void; and DARKNESS was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God MOVED upon the face of the waters.
3 And God said, Let there be LIGHT: and there was light. [Jesus is Light]
God started Time, for man
Genesis 1:1
God SPOKE, Genesis 1:3
God Made, Genesis 1:7
Romans 1:20
We need to put our faith in God NO MATTER WHAT PEOPLE write in science websites. A mission to a planet will not explain creation. Dead planets have water beds; once having had water. But observations have proved no other planets have abundant water, visible, like Earth.
This is Gods Purpose. That we follow His Son, Jesus Christ in salvation with the baptism of the Holy Spirit.
All of the Beauty and Wonder of a self sustaining EARTH, should help us trust God and follow Jesus.

In the KJV, we find the story of Lazarus and the rich man who both died and went to Hades ( Luke 16:19-31). The KJV translates the Greek word "hades" as hell but most other translations use the Greek word. HADES had two separated parts: Those who died in faith believing in God's promise waited for the resurrection in Abraham's Bosom. Those who died spiritually separated from God wait in torment for the resurrection unto death, eternal separation from God. The rich man was on the torment side and Lazarus was in ABRAHAMS BOSOM which was called "PARADISE" by the LORD Jesus Christ himself when He addressed the thief who found faith the day Jesus was crucified ( Luke 23:42-43)
For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment" ( 2 Peter 2:4). The word translated "HELL" here is not the Greek word "HADES" but is the Greek word "TARTARUS" meaning ABYSS or the lowest regions. This could very well be the "gulf" that was fixed between the PLACE OF TORMENT and Abraham's Bosom ( Luke 16:26).
Wherefore He saith, When JESUS ascended up on high, He led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men. Now that He ascended, what is it but that He also descended first into the lower parts of the earth? He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that He might fulfill all things" ( Ephesians 4:8-10). Leading captivity captive seems to refer to Jesus taking all those that waited in Paradise, to heaven to be with Him. The descending into the "lower parts" then refers to Jesus mission of declaring Victory
And the winepress was trodden without the city, and blood came out of the winepress, even unto the horse bridles, by the space of a thousand and six hundred furlongs.
Revelation 19:19
And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him (JESUS) that sat on the horse, and against his army.
Revelation 19:21
And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his MOUTH: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.
[This passage uses the symbolism of grapes in a winepress to describe the eventual defeat of the wicked in the end times. As grapes are crushed and broken to release wine, the bodies of God's enemies will be smashed in a bloody defeat. Taken in absolutely literal terms, this verse describes a cascade of blood some five or six feet (2 meters) high and 180 miles (290 kilometers) long. Most interpreters see this as primarily symbolic. Some suggest that what's described is a 1600-stadia zone of carnage during battle, so violent that blood is splattered as high as the head of a horse.
Whether entirely or partly poetic, one thing is certain: this judgment creates a gory scene. Revelation 19:13 pictures Jesus as having blood on His robe as He rides into warfare against the wicked. Although some believe this is the blood Jesus shed on the cross, others see this as the blood of His enemies. The interpretation that it is the blood of His enemies is supported by the prophetic picture given in Isaiah 63:2-4. Jesus' defeat of His enemies at the end of the tribulation will be absolute and terrible.]
I am sorry to hear of your MS. Being diagnosed with MS may not have anything to do with something you're doing wrong. It definitely doesn't have anything to do with a lack of faith. There is no such thing as a person who has been born of the Spirit of God having a lack of faith because spiritual faith is not something we can produce. If you have received Christ, you have already healed. You have been healed spiritually. Sin is a spiritual disease and Jesus Christ is the remedy for that. That's what He heals us from, sin. Although He can and does heal people physically, there is no promise that He will always do so. But please know that whatever we suffer in the flesh, it has nothing to do with our lack of faith. You are doing nothing wrong!
David knew what would happen if the enemy triumphed. Because he was Israel's king, if the enemy succeeded, the nation's very foundations would be destroyed. Law and order grounded in righteousness and justice, under the headship of the godly king, would crumble. Evil and chaos would ensue. What could the righteous do in such a situation? Of course, David believed he would prevail. He was sure that law and order would continue. His trust was in the Lord ( Psalm 11:4), therefore he was confident the enemy would not triumph.
Years later, God allowed Babylon to carry Israel into captivity because of her idolatry and neglect of the Sabbath. In both a symbolic and literal sense, the foundations were destroyed-including the demolition of the temple from its cornerstones. But in his perfect timing, God raised up Ezra to return to Jerusalem and lay the foundation ( Ezra 3). If doctrinal error destroys a church's foundation of truth, believers must restore the foundation before any healing can happen. Congregations must heed the Lord's admonitions to be and do what He desires ( Revelation 2:3)
The foundation of law and must be repaired and supported by the God loving community.

2nd, pray for wisdom also James 1:5, in what GOD wants to reveal to you, deeper than I may show you.
3rd, to me I understand this Psalms 11, & Psalms 11:3, appears to be written by David, it seems to point to when he was being pursued by Saul into the mountains. Please read 1Samuel 19:10, 1Samuel 18:29, 1Samuel 23:26, could David be referring to the foundation being destroyed referring to himself? 1Kings 9:5, Jeremiah 33:17, Psalms 132:11, being the promise of GOD to establish HIS throne through David?
4th, because the temple wasn't made yet, 1Chronicles 28:3-21, Psalms 127:1,
5th, however David's Psalms were also prophetic like Psalms 22,
6th, Jesus being in the lineage of David: Matthew 22:42, Acts 13:22, Matthew 1:1,
7th, other scripture: Isaiah 28:16, 1Corinthians 3:11-17,
