Whe Life Is Just Too Much

No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, He will also provide a way out so that you can stand up to it. (1 Corinthians 10:13)

What happens when life gets to be just "too much?" Good question, especially if you are going through "it" right now.  But it is a good question for which the LORD Jesus has an answer.

  1. Recognize the lie that you are the only one who has ever gone through this tempatation or the only one who is going through the temptation: Check out the first part of the verse above:  What you are going through is "common."  That is right. What you are going through has happened before and may even be happening to other folks, even as you experience being "siezed" by it.
  2. God is faithful:  He has journeyed with others through this and brought them to the other side.  God may allow you to be brought to this, but God is also faithful and capable of bringing you through it.
  3. He will not let you be "tempted beyond what you can bear:"  Now this part of this verse is one of the most misquoted verses in Holy Writ. Sadly many folks say "God will not put anymore on me than I can handle."  Thus they blame God for the problem, just as Job of old blamed God.  When in reality, God is the defender who provides the great escape. And the Evil One is the source of this tempting course. Then he goes into hiding as God get's blamed.  Remember  evil is live spelled backward.  And you have it all backwards if you think God is doing this to you. He provides the way out.  He is NOT the spout out of which the temptation comes out.
  4. God provides the escape hatch or the way out:  With this temptation, says the word HE provides "a way of escape." He does this so that we can "bear it."  In other words He provides a way for the temptation to not be more than we can handle.
  5. Decide to escape:  We need to take God's way out.  We need to not believe the lies that blame God and that this is too much.  We need to truly "let go and let God" lead us in the path of right way ness, and we will then be able to escape. 
Precious Christ Followers God does not promise us a life free of suffering, but He does provide us a way out. He provides us with ways to find answers.  Live today and follow the lead of the Word of God I have shared with you today.  Then...

Be Blessed 2-day ... Especially 2-day

American & "Pride"

Image
 THE MEGA PROBLEM OF "PRIDE" Our country, and especially our leaders, have stolen a God Covenant Symbol-- THE RAINBOW-- which declares God's judgment for unholy living will never be accomplished through flood waters; however,  this doesn't mean God will NOT judge a nation,  or planet that is sin filled and full of pride.  We are living in a time that Jesus describes, in the Bible,  as "The Days of Noah." He prophesied of our day being like the generation that caused God to regret HE had ever made human beings.  Why? The answer is simple: HE had this regret because of "PRIDE." How 🤔 is pride demonstrated? 1. Pride shows itself when people worship the creature rather than THE Creator. 2 . Pride is exemplified when people become the idols, and mere human pseudo truth & rules for life are contrary to Almighty God's Law, which human beings use to govern life. 3. Pride is seen in our irreverence for God's name via the confession of our mouth

We Can Be So Much More.

Image
   We Can Be So Much More:  Let us learn about the powerful identity God the Father gives us, through our being IN Christ Jesus by the power of The Holy Spirit. Let us embrace our God given Eternal Inheritance.  ( Ephesians 1:3-14)  Let us get up, each morning and give ourselves up to God. (Romans 12:1-2.)  Let us wake up! And practice Gods practice of putting off the deeds of darkness, of being empowered to behave decently, like people who live in the day time. (Romans 13:11-14) Let us cloth our selves, in Jesus, by putting on the full armor of God each day! This will make us strong in the Lord and in His mighty power, and it will give us all we need to stand against the Devil's schemes. (Ephesians 6:10-20) Let us submit to God, and resist the Devil so he will have to flee from us. (James 4:7) Learn all we can about the enemy and know he has no authority over us. But in Christ we have God's resurrection power flowing in us and through us. In Jesus Name 🙏  SoJourner

W A T C H O U T ! ! ! JESUS TEACHING ON LEADERS

Image
  Jesus Rock Solid Teaching Regarding Picking Leaders Matthew 7:15-23      "Watch out for false prophets! They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves!  By their fruits you shall recognize them!  Do people pick grapes from thorn bushes or figs from thistles? Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, and every bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. Every tree that does NOT bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus by their fruit you will recognize them. Not everyone who says to me 'Lord, Lord' will enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but ONLY those who do the will of my Father in Heaven. Many will say to me on the day they give account of their lives, 'Lord, Lord' did we not prophesy in your name, and in you name drive out demons, and in your name perform many miracles?  Then I will tell them plainly, ' I never knew you! Away from me, you evil doers!'
