1 Corinthians 10:12-13

Ok, I have read this verse time and time again but it seems like every time I am going through a trial or temptation the devil distracts me so much that I completely forget this amazing promise the Lord has made to us :

So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don't fall. No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to us all. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it. 1 Corinthians 10:12-13

Praise the Lord that he provides a way out!!!! Our God is so merciful! I am in total awe of this verse and this is going to be my own personal memory verse because I need this one hidden in my heart so no matter what tricks the devil tries he can't take this verse from me! There are many others but this is just the one that I have really needed the past few days so I wanted to share!!! This all just proves how true our church's, Eastwood Baptist Church, monthly memory verse is!!!

Eastwood's Memory verse for January:

For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing spirit and soul, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart! Hebrews 4:12
