1 Corinthians 10: 13
There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man; but GOD is faithful, who will not permit you to be tempted above that ye are able, but will with the temptation, also make the way of escape, that ye may be able to bear it.
God is faithful and will not permit harm
Who is the one who wants to harm you? Remember, we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but in the spiritual realm. The enemy of our soul, wants to harm us; GOD will not permit it. We will be tempted, so will every one else be tempted by the enemy, but GOD is faithful and will not permit the enemy to harm us. GOD will provide an escape so that you can bear the temptation. You see, GOD is in the middle of the trouble, keeping watch over His own. Psalm 121: 3 says: "He will not let your foot be moved; He who keepeth thee will not slumber". Psalm 23:4 says: Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for Thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me." We are never alone in the middle of temptation, floundering alone without help. "Our help cometh from the LORD, the maker of heaven and earth".
The story of Job gives us great insight into temptation and the way out of it. GOD only gave permission to the enemy to try and tempt Job, but not to kill him. Job lost everything, but did not curse GOD. GOD questions Job and Job is humbled. In the end, the LORD turned Job's captivity, when He prayed for His friends.
The keys are: GOD IS FAITHFUL, GOD IS ABLE TO DELIVER, GOD IS NO RESPECTER OF PERSONS. GOD DOES NOT SLUMBER OR SLEEP, GOD WATCHES, GOD INSTRUCTS IN THE WAY OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, GOD LOVES HIS CHILDREN PASSIONATELY.
GOD IS FAITHFUL TO HIS BELOVED CHILDREN
