Today’s Scripture

1 Corinthians 10:13, ESV
God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.

Today’s Word

There are times when we feel overwhelmed by a loss, by a sickness, or by being treated unfairly by someone, and we say, "I can't take the stress, the worry, the demands. It's too much to handle." But God wouldn't be a just God if He didn't design you with exactly what you need. The apostle Paul says that God will never let you face more pressure than you can handle. He will make a way of escape so you can bear it.

Now you can choose in your mind to give up and think, "I can't do this," or you can choose to "not faint in your mind" (Hebrews 12:3). Your inner design is strong enough, now get your mind strong enough. Quit telling yourself, "It's too big. It's been this way too long. I can't take it anymore." You are well able. No weapon formed against you will prosper. That difficulty didn't come to stay, it came to pass. Be strong and of good courage, for the Lord your God is with you.

Prayer for Today

Father, thank You that You have designed me to withstand whatever pressure comes against me. Thank You that You have taken into account all that I need, and You are supplying me with the strength to overcome. I believe and declare You always leads me to triumph. In Jesus' Name, Amen.

A psalm of David. 1  Blessed are those who have regard for the weak;    the LORD delivers them in times of trouble. 2  The LORD protects and preserves them—    they are counted among the blessed in the land—    he does not give them over to the desire of their foes. 3  The LORD sustains them on their sickbed    and restores them from their bed of illness. 4  I said, “Have mercy on me, LORD;    heal me, for I have sinned against you.” 5  My enemies say of me in malice,    “When will he die and his name perish? ” 6  When one of them comes to see me,    he speaks falsely, while his heart gathers slander;    then he goes out and spreads it around.

I Hear His Whisper..."Trust my timing." : Rivers of pain and persecution will never extinguish this flame. Endless floods will be unable to quench this raging fire that burns within you. Everything will be consumed. It will stop at nothing as you yield everything to this furious fire until it won’t even seem to you like a sacrifice anymore. Song of Songs 8:7 TPT I Hear His Whisper . . . Trust my timing.   The days of completion are mine, not yours. I will complete my work in you in my perfect timing. Even as my ways are perfect, so my timing is perfect. For you have said, "It seems I am standing still and going nowhere." But I say over you, I am unfolding my glory upon you even as you wait on me. I will make it happen and will show you my perfection. What often feels like an endless season of waiting is often a time of preparation. You must believe in things you cannot see. You must trust that even when things seem silent, I am working on your behalf
