You were made for God's pleasure, but He cannot get any pleasure when your body is sick. In Mark 3:1-5, Jesus saw a man with a withered hand in the temple and must have thought to Himself, "Hand, I didn't make you to be withered; I made you for clapping." The man with the withered hand didn't pray or ask for healing; the Lord healed the hand because it wasn't giving Him pleasure.

There was once an elderly man who was driving his Ford car when it suddenly broke down by the roadside. As he stood by the car looking confused, a rich man stopped right next to him and asked if he could help. The rich man got out of his car, opened the trunk of the faulty car, touched a few things, and attempted to start the car. Immediately, the car started. Amazed, the old man turned to the rich man and asked, "Why did you stop to help me?" The rich man replied, "My name is Henry Ford. I made that car to run, not to stop by the wayside." Beloved, the One who made you is passing by now, and He will deal with everything in your life that is not giving Him glory, in Jesus' name.

When something is not as God created it to be, it doesn't give Him pleasure. If there is any part of your life that is not revealing God's purpose, rather than complain, begin to speak God's counsel over it. God does all things after the counsel of His will, and when you stand on His will concerning anything, that thing must align to give Him pleasure (Ephesians 1:11).
