‘No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it’ 1st Corinthians 10:13 (NKJV)
Here are some excerpts from a recent church series reminding and encouraging us that God is mindful of His children and always makes a way for us.
Compiled by Esther Njoroge.
When we go through situations, we tend to look down, but God wants us to look up.
If we reflect, we will see areas in our lives that God has made a way when things looked impossible.
Seas, mighty waters, wilderness and deserts represent situations and challenges that we all go through at one point or another in life., whether it is in in business, school, family, future, career, marriage etc.
Challenges are not from God. They are setbacks planted by the enemy across our pathway to stop us in our journey of life, but God always makes a way for us.
We face challenges because we live in an imperfect world and we have the natural human flesh. Never give up in life thinking that you are alone. Many people in this world are going through similar challenges. That is why we all need God
Your situations are not special, but you are special to God.
The challenges that you are facing show you that you are able. The more you can bear, the more victory you have.
Start looking at your challenges differently. The greater the challenge, the more able you are. You are a champion in God’s army.
Give yourself some credit that after all the challenges you have faced or are facing, you are still standing and praising God. You are trusting and hopeful that God will make a way where there seems to be no way.
Young people who know and serve God, do not condemn yourselves because God does not condemn you. No matter what challenges you are facing, wake up in the morning and thank God that you know Christ and you are able
It doesn’t take long for things to change. In the twinkle of an eye things will change. When God made a way for Joseph, in one day, he moved from the prison to the palace, from betrayal into beautification, and from abandonment into abundance.
All the years that Joseph faced his challenges looked like nothing in one day.
God is making a way and like Joseph you will be triumphant in Jesus name. Amen!
