In this episode of Everyday Exorcist, Grant and Kat take on one of the most common lies that has quietly crept into the Church — the belief that we’re meant to live with sickness, and that God doesn’t actually want to heal us here on earth.

They unpack the web of smaller lies that often sit underneath it: Maybe God is using this to teach me something. Maybe I deserve this. Maybe healing wasn’t really paid for on the cross. Maybe I just don’t have enough faith.

But the truth is simple and powerful — sickness is an enemy, not a teacher. Healing was fully purchased at the cross. And faith isn’t about convincing God to act; it’s about receiving what He is already willing and ready to give.

This episode pulls back the curtain on the subtle deceptions that have distorted God’s character and kept people stuck in pain. Is God really as good as He says He is? Absolutely. And depending on how deeply these lies have taken root, freedom may come through repentance, renouncing false beliefs, and even casting out the spirits that hide behind them.
