This goodness proceeds from the generosity, bounty & grace of God. Therefore, in prayer & supplication we offer thanksgiving to Him, content in all circumstances, grateful for sustenance needed for our body, soul & spirit. So also, when God eradicates disease through His Word, we rejoice in His omnipotent grace & power. (Deuteronomy 8:1-10; Philippians 4:6-20; Luke 17:11-19)
