Two sources of sickness

Psalms 32:1-7

1. Why was David sick and when was he healed?

David was sick because he kept silent where his bones wasted away through his groaning all day long. His strength was sapped as in the heat of summer.

He was healed when he acknowledged his sin to God and the Lord forgave the guilt of his sin.

1 Thessalonians 5:23; 1 Peter 2:24

2. What is God's will for our bodies?

May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed.
