Judgment Is Executed on COVID-19: by Kenneth Copeland in Jesus's Name!!

And what is this 'golden' Way? Is it really what they sought in California in 1849 or in Alaska later in that century? I think not!

"And an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but it shall be for those: the wayfaring men, though fools, shall not err therein.
No lion shall be there, nor any ravenous beast shall go up thereon, it shall not be found there; but the redeemed shall walk there:" Isaiah 35:8-9

"Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." John 14:5-6

When we have encountered Jesus and walk in Him, are we not walking the 'golden street'? Was Jesus praying that we as men of flesh might have a large balance in our bank account? I think not!

"Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word;
That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.
And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:" John 17:20-22

I do not believe that I or anyone else said that on this thread. However, physical healing is not always the best thing for us. Understanding the example of King Hezekiah can be helpful to anyone. There is a proper time for everything for each of us. We should always wants what God wants for us, but many people presume that what they want is what we need according to God. For someone who has overcome the world as Jesus did his wants may equal his needs, but most of us should be waiting on the Lord's time for each thing:

"To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;
A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace." Ecc 3:1-8

Did you notice the people mostly came or were brought to him? People either had to come for themselves or have someone bring them. Jesus wasn't forcing himself on other people.

Matthew 13:58 And he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief.

And why then was the man at the Beautiful Gate of the temple in Acts chapters 3 and 4, who could not walk not healed by Jesus? He was above 40 years old and was carried to the gate daily to be in position each day to beg. He was not healed until after Jesus' resurrection and ascension when Peter and John passed through that gate into the temple. Jesus had gone regularly to the temple and had to have passed him many times but never healed him. It was not God's time... not yet it wasn't.

Also consider Jesus' experience in his home country:

"And he went out from thence, and came into his own country; and his disciples follow him.
And when the sabbath day was come, he began to teach in the synagogue: and many hearing him were astonished, saying, From whence hath this man these things? and what wisdom is this which is given unto him, that even such mighty works are wrought by his hands?
Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and Joses, and of Juda, and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us? And they were offended at him.
But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, but in his own country, and among his own kin, and in his own house.
And he could there do no mighty work, save that he laid his hands upon a few sick folk, and healed them." Mark 6:1-5

Now you may look for written verses to fit what you believe and ignore or set anything else aside, but is that really how we should seek God's Truth? Do we decide what the truth is and then to support our decision look for verses that fit... rather than asking God to help you see and understand the whole picture?

I am not going to spar with you indefinitely on this. The two chapters tell what happens when Peter and John see the man begging at the gate. You can take it or leave it from there. It is between you and God. Only He gives increases!

I said what I said. Do you require an Interpreter? God is able in that as well!

"I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.
So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase." I Cor 3:6-7

"But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God. " I Cor 14:28

Jesus was always His own Interpreter for those with ears to hear. Now the Interpreter is the Holy Spirit!

"He that hath ears to hear, let him hear." Matt 11:15
