1 Corinthians 10:9-13

GOD'S FAITHFULNESS IN OUR TEST

…God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear…1 Corinthians 10:13, NIV

Life's journey is full of valley and mountain experiences. These, sometimes, paint God as unjust or unfaithful. However, it does not dispute the fact that God is a loving and caring Father.

God allows certain things to happen in our journey in life to see how faithful we are to Him; to check our stability and dependency on Him.

The Israelites failed to acknowledge the faithfulness of God in their distress and His acts of deliverance, provisions, miracles, even in the wilderness. They thus frustrated His grace and election over them and were destroyed by fiery serpents (Exodus 17:1-7; Numbers 20:1-13, 21:4-8).

Apostle Paul wants you to consider the mistakes of this people and learn from them. Do not provoke God because of what you are passing through.

Do not look at your problem but focus on God who has the authority to solve all problems in your life. Stay by His word in any circumstance of life for He has promised to deliver His people from their afflictions. He shall see you out of that tempting and frustrating experience. Just trust and take Him by His word and sincerely commit your life to His care.

Ignorance is deadly, it sends people to early grave, keeps people in bondage, and renders its victim useless. - Unknown
