Out of Context: "More Than You Can Handle" // Time of Grace
Christians love to say, "God won't give you more than you can handle" when they encourage friends and family who are overwhelmed. Except there's a major problem with this: that's actually not a verse in the Bible. There's a verse similar to it in the New Testament. When the apostle Paul wrote his words, he wrote them as both a warning and a comfort.

Pastor Novotny (Time of Grace) speaks candidly about "real life' issues in terms where everyone who listens can identify and relate whether they may have (or will) experience during a season of their life. He shares the hope of the Gospel in realistic and practical terms so that we do not feel condemned rather forgiven and redeemed. Thank you and may our Lord continue to use you and bless you, your ministry, and family richly.
This one has been my biggest pet peeve for years. Thanks for covering it, Pastor Mike!
That verse resonates with me: be careful you do not fall. ❤ examine yourself daily, making sure you are walking worthy of your calling
I will never in a million years give up my personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Get behind me Satan
Another beautiful and real message. Thank you!
AMEN! I want to believe our church is like this!🤟🏻🤟🏻🥰🥰🙏
When I show my time of grace to pray over people and blessing time of worship to have one disciples to have most powerful prayer 🙏😍
I thank God so much for being able to receive these messages here in Southern California. I know they can be heard throughout the world, but I feel they are incredibly directed at me. I am finding better ways to live the way God meant to. It is through Grace Talks that I find myself closer to God every day.

EXACTLY how I feel too! So amazing! Many blessings to you and yours!
Excellent message. I have sadly misquoted the non verse myself. No more. I now have better. Amen.
What a great sermon, so encouraging, enlightening. I'm also so thankful for a Bible study group where we share our prayer needs ...
Excellent! Absolutely excellent! Thank you Pastor Novotny for being the vessel for God's words! ALWAYS EXACTLY what I need to hear! One of these days I will make it up to Appleton to hear you in person and that will be awesome! Thank to all who make this possible!Many blessings!

Thanks for sharing!!
I appreciate the extra insight given to the verse and its meanings with languages
Wow really enlightened. Did not know it wasn't in the Bible. Yes I have felt overwhelmed before and if someone said that to me I probably would have walked away. Life is not easy, but heaven awaits us. Here nothing, even tough stuff, last forever. Patience is a choice, this too will pass. Thank you.
Wow, that's beautiful.
Great message!
i appreciate ths astute clarification 🙏
Amen 🙏🏽
Subscribe love all preachings
Simple: If God didn't allow more than we could handle, we wouldn't need Christ as the propitiation for our sins. That simple fact alone nullifies the false claim that "God won't give you more than you can handle." We can't even 'handle' our own sin!
