Thank you for asking a question on This is your Bible.
I regret that no one other than God can answer this question. Healing in this life can only be temporary because of our mortality.The Gospel of the kingdom of God is about the life to come at the return of Jesus.Those who obey the gospel in this life will be raised to eternal life, healed of all infirmity when Christ comes again.
In believing the gospel and being baptised into Christ we become sons and daughters of God and have the assurance that all that we endure in this life will work out for our eternal good.
Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
We may be called upon to endure illness in this life but it does not separate us from the love of God in Christ.
Romans 8:35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. 37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. 38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, 39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
We have the same joy set before us that enabled Christ to endure crucifixion and death.
Hebrews 12:2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
.
Revelation 3:21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
Revelation 3:21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
The scriptures were written to give us both comfort and hope in adversity.
Romans 15:4 For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.
May God grant you healing, but more importantly bring you to a knowledge of the truth and give you eternal life in the kingdom to come.
