Why Doesn't God Remove Affliction?
In this episode of Digest This! Bible Study, Vernetta shares her testimony of affliction, revealing how chronic illness has shaped her faith and strengthened her dependence on God's grace. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 12:6-10, she explores why God sometimes allows suffering to remain and how His power is made perfect in our weakness. Through scripture, reflection, and personal experience, Vernetta uncovers five reasons why God does not always remove affliction, including refining our character (Romans 5:3-5), strengthening our trust in Him (Proverbs 3:5-6), and revealing His glory through our trials (John 9:1-3).
She also highlights Ephesians 2:1-10, showing that God’s grace is a gift that sustains us, Titus 2:11-12, emphasizing how grace teaches us to live righteously, and Hebrews 4:16, encouraging us to confidently approach God’s throne for help in our time of need. If you've ever asked, "Why doesn’t God take this away?", this episode will encourage you to shift your focus, embrace God's purpose in your struggles, and find joy in His sustaining grace—just as Paul did.
