What does the Bible say about God's glory in sickness?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that God's ultimate purpose in our sickness is His glory.

The Scriptures affirm that God's dealings with His people during times of sickness serve the profound purpose of glorifying Him. Specifically, in 1 Peter 4:11, it states that all things are meant to bring glory to God through Jesus Christ. A compelling example is found in the account of Lazarus, where Jesus wept not only to express His humanity but also demonstrated His divine authority by raising him from the dead, thereby showcasing His glory. This duality of Christ—fully human yet fully divine—highlights that even in our moments of suffering, God's majesty can shine through, reminding us that sickness is never outside His sovereign plan.
