We must never expect God to do the things He has never promised to do. For instance, God has never promised to always heal your infirmities, provide a spouse and/or children, exempt you from suffering or make you wealthy. God gives us His promises according to His will. We are in no position to force our will upon Him and expect Him to comply and then express our disappointment that He let us down when He, according to our own estimation, fails to come through. It’s not “name it and claim it.” It is “read it and believe it.”
