#CHRISTIANCLICHES

“God Won’t Give You More Than You Can Handle”

#CHRISTIANCLICHES Moses (Exodus 3:11-12) Jeremiah (Jeremiah 1:5-9) David (2 Samuel 7:18) Peter (Luke 5:8) Paul (2 Corinthians 2:16, 3:5-6, 4:7-11, 12:9-10)

#CHRISTIANCLICHES For I do not want you to be unaware, brothers, that our fathers were all under the cloud, and all passed through the sea, 2 and all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea, 3 and all ate the same spiritual food, 4 and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank from the spiritual Rock that followed them, and the Rock was Christ. 5 Nevertheless, with most of them God was not pleased, for they were overthrow in the wilderness.

#CHRISTIANCLICHES 6 Now these things took place as examples for us, that we might not desire evil as they did. 7 Do not be idolaters as some of them were; as it is written, “The people sat down to eat and drink and rose up to play.” 8 We must not indulge in sexual immorality as some of them did, and twenty-three thousand fell in a single day. 9 We must not put Christ to the test, as some of them did and were destroyed by serpents, 10 nor grumble, as some of them did and were destroyed by the Destroyer.

#CHRISTIANCLICHES 11 Now these things happened to them as an example, but they were written down for our instruction, on whom the end of the ages has come. 12 Therefore let anyone who thinks that he stands take heed lest he fall. 13 No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. 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.

#CHRISTIANCLICHES 14 Therefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry Corinthians 10:1-14

#CHRISTIANCLICHES “My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death.” -- Matthew 26:38

#CHRISTIANCLICHES “I’m worn out, completely crushed; I groan because of my miserable heart.” – Psalms 38:8 “My wrongdoings are stacked higher than my head; they are a weight that’s much too heavy for me.” – Psalms 38:4

#CHRISTIANCLICHES “Temptation may even be a blessing to a man when it reveals to him his weakness and drives him to the almighty Savior. Do not be surprised, then, dear child of God, if you are tempted at every step of your earthly journey, and almost beyond endurance.” - FB Meyer

#CHRISTIANCLICHES “Not once have I danced around our house shouting, ‘Yeah suffering!’ Instead, in the midst of pain and hurt, I am actively expecting God to do something. I don’t know what. I don’t know when. But I am expecting the God of resurrection to heal us.

#CHRISTIANCLICHES I am expecting him to do this and so I will be actively looking and waiting for him to do something. I believe expectant waiting can only happen when we exchange our feeble platitudes for an authentic faith that engages God with the full brunt of our emotion and pain. Only then can salvation been seen.” – Nate Pyle

#CHRISTIANCLICHES 8 For we do not want you to be unaware, brothers, of the affliction we experienced in Asia. For we were so utterly burdened beyond our strength that we despaired of life itself. 9 Indeed, we felt that we had received the sentence of death. But that was to make us rely not on ourselves but on God who raises the dead. 10 He delivered us from such a deadly peril, and he will deliver us. On him we have set our hope that he will deliver us again Corinthians 1:8-10

#CHRISTIANCLICHES “For men have no taste for (God's power) till they are convinced of their need of it and they immediately forget its value unless they are conditionally reminded by awareness of their own weakness.” – John Calvin

#CHRISTIANCLICHES “The acknowledgment of our weakness is the first step in repairing our loss.” --Thomas a Kempis

#CHRISTIANCLICHES “Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen” – Ephesians 3:20-21
