The Lord has promised us 70 years anything above that is borrowed time.

God ALWAYS says Yes to the things He has promised in His word (will). ll Cor 1:20.

We all have an appointed time... that's his Word too. We are conceived in sin ... and the effects of sin catches up to all of us ....

but thank God for Jesus Christ .... our Hope of Glory.

The issue is : How many prayers does it take to get God's attention?
Not even one murmer. Just the inner man turning to God without pretention and mustard seed faith.

I think the numbers might increase OUR faith, knowing that a lot of folks are praying on behalf of a need.

THE effectual fervent prayer of A righteous MAN availeth much.

Many, many people prayed for my dad who was only 68 when he died from a brain tumor. He had been a faithful servant of God. Numerous ministers came and laid hands on him and prayed for him as well as lay people. He wasn't completely healed and raised from his sick bed in the way we might have wanted, but THROUGH his sickness there were many days that healing was there.

Answer: ONE. "The effectual fervant prayer of a righteous man availeth much". When you (or I ) become that effectually, fervantly praying and righteous man, then maybe we will have all the answers. Until then, I suppose we will just have to let God , in His infinite wisdom, be in control of every situation.

There is a sickness unto death

God is sovereign and we are never going to figure out why he heals some people and not others. He has his own reasons.

As the song says "Heaven holds all the answers that time wil never tell".

Well, Bro ,
What about Ps 103:3, Where David said that the LORD healeth ALL diseases?

What about the other more than one thousand other promises about God healing us?
