God is faithful and will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear


God is faithful and will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear

1 Cor 10:13

13 No temptation[c] has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted[d] beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted,[e] he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.

2 Pet 2:9

(for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)— if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials and to hold the unrighteous for punishment on the day of judgment.  

Psalm 37:33

33 but the Lord will not leave them in the power of the wicked
    or let them be condemned when brought to trial.
34 Hope in the Lord and keep his way.
He will exalt you to inherit the land;
    when the wicked are destroyed, you will see it.

Rom 15:31

31 Pray that I may be kept safe from the unbelievers in Judea and that the contribution I take to Jerusalem may be favorably received by the Lord’s people there, 32 so that I may come to you with joy, by God’s will, and in your company be refreshed.

Rev 3:10

10 Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come on the whole world to test the inhabitants of the earth.

We learn the following from the above verses

1)  God is faithful and will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear

2)  The Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials and to hold the unrighteous for punishment on the Day of Judgment.

3)  The Lord will not leave them in the power of the wicked
    or let them be condemned when brought to trial. Hope in the Lord and keep his way

4)  Prayer keeps us safe from the trials

Keeping Lord’s command will also keep us from trails
