TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:
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.
1 Corinthians 10:13, NKJV.
TODAY'S WORD:
We all go through challenges, disappointments and unfair
situations. It’s easy to get overwhelmed and think, “This is too much. I can’t
deal with this illness. I can’t handle this difficult child.” Or, “I can’t take
this traffic. It’s driving me crazy.” But, God promised He will never let us
face more than we can bear. Nothing that comes your way in life is too much for
you.
This is what Joseph did. He was betrayed by his brothers,
thrown into a pit and spent years in prison for something he didn't do. But, he
didn't get depressed. He didn't start complaining. His attitude was, “With God,
I can handle it. God is still on the throne. I’m going to stay in faith and
keep being my best.” In the end, he was made second in charge over all of
Egypt.
Today, if you are feeling burdened and overwhelmed by
circumstances, know that with God, all things are possible. No person can keep
you from your destiny, no bad break, no disappointment, no sickness. Keep
believing, keep hoping, keep praying and keep moving forward because you can
handle whatever comes your way!
PRAYER FOR TODAY:
Father, thank You for equipping me with everything I need
to face the day. I know that with You, all things are possible. I trust that
You are working all things together for my good in Jesus’ name. Amen.
