Temptation/Tribulation

Shalom saints.🤗 ⚘  I want to speak about something many Christians say, that "God will not give you more than you can handle".
They say that about sickness, pain, trouble, which is incorrect.

When it comes to afflictions and tribulations then yes, God does give you "more than you can handle". He will allow you to be burdened excessively, beyond your strength, so that you may despair even of life, but that's when we trust in God even unto death.

Regarding temptations God will not allow us to be tempted beyond what we are able, but will provide a way of escape, so that we are able to endure it.

God bless you in the blessed Name of Jesus Christ our Lord.✝️💜

No temptation has overtaken you except something common to mankind; and God is faithful, so He will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will provide the way of escape also, so that you will be able to endure it.
1 Corinthians 10:13 NASB2020

For we do not want you to be unaware, brothers and sisters, of our afflictions [tribulation] which occurred in Asia, that we were burdened excessively, beyond our strength, so that we despaired even of life.
2 Corinthians 1:8 NASB2020
