Contradiction with Jeremiah 30:17
While Psalms 107:20 speaks of God sending His word to heal, Jeremiah 30:17 emphasizes that God will restore health specifically, implying a future action rather than a current one.
Jeremiah 30:17: For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the LORD; because they called thee an Outcast, [saying], This [is] Zion, whom no man seeketh after.
Contradiction with Ezekiel 30:21
Contrary to Psalms 107:20 which denotes healing through God’s word, Ezekiel suggests a scenario where healing does not occur as God has broken the arm of Pharaoh, leaving it unhealed.
Ezekiel 30:21: Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt; and, lo, it shall not be bound up to be healed, to put a roller to bind it, to make it strong to hold the sword.
Contradiction with 2 Corinthians 12:8-9
Whereas Psalms 107:20 indicates immediate healing through the word of God, Paul speaks of a "thorn in the flesh" that was not taken away despite his requests, implying not all requests for healing are fulfilled directly.
2 Corinthians 12:8-9: For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me.
Contradiction with Job 30:26
This verse highlights an expectation of good leading to evil, contrasting with Psalms 107:20 where the expectation of God's word leads to healing and deliverance.
Job 30:26: When I looked for good, then evil came [unto me]: and when I waited for light, there came darkness.
Contradiction with John 9:2-3
While Psalms 107:20 emphasizes direct healing, this verse suggests that infirmities can be present for reasons beyond immediate healing, such as displaying God's works.
John 9:2-3: And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?
Contradiction with Psalm 38:3
In contrast to the healing in Psalms 107:20, this verse details a situation where there is no health in the flesh due to God's anger and chastisement.
Psalm 38:3: [There is] no soundness in my flesh because of thine anger; neither [is there any] rest in my bones because of my sin. [rest: Heb. peace, or, health]
Contradiction with Deuteronomy 32:39
This verse states that God controls both life and death, healing and wounding, implying that healing is not automatic but at God's discretion, unlike the assured healing depicted in Psalms 107:20.
Deuteronomy 32:39: See now that I, [even] I, [am] he, and [there is] no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither [is there any] that can deliver out of my hand.
Contradiction with Isaiah 6:10
Instead of healing, this verse speaks of hearts being hardened and people not being healed to fulfill God's purposes, showing a deliberate choice against healing.
Isaiah 6:10: Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed.
