“There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.” [I Corinthians 10:13]
“Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.” [Isaiah 43:19]
“Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all.” [Psalm 34:19]
“And seeing a group of people before Him that was going to be lost, it ought to love to take the place of, make a way of escape. He must do it. It would be against His nature not to do it. So He makes a way. And then as He makes a way, He also has set many mileposts, warnings, red lights, and so forth as we journey on down through life. Why, even the law of the land fixes stop signs, red lights, go lights to help save our mortal life. And that's just the feeling of mankind one for another. How much more has the God of heaven fixed warnings, signals, signs, to let us bypass these things?” [56-0715, The Mark Of The Beast, Jeffersonville IN]
“Just watch God's provided way. God always makes a provided way; in this we must follow it. Now, God's made a provided way for the human race to escape the oncoming judgments. In the days of Noah God made a provided way. But when God makes a way and man refuses to walk in it, then if they miss it, it's not God's fault; no more than it is the city's fault when you run a stop light. See? He's made a way. And God, before He was going to destroy the world, He built... had a ark built. Not only that, but He provided a prophet with His Word to make a way for the people to escape. And all that believed and walked in God's provided way, by God's provided messenger to point them to God's provided way, they escaped the wrath and judgment of death. God's got a Messenger tonight called the Holy Spirit. He is the Word. And the Word... He's a--He's the one that manifests the Word. But you must walk in that way. You must listen to the Messenger of God, which is His Word and walk in that way. It's a way prepared, to be--for the escape.” [62-0728 God Has A Provided Way, Victoria BC]
“God is the way of escape. He made a way right straight to the promised land. Anything got in His way, He moved it out of the way. If anything gets in your way, then have a conference with God. Talk it over with Him and go on. That's what God's saying to Isaiah here. "Oh, you're sinful. Your sins are like scarlet. Why don't you come and let's reason together. Why not come and talk it over with Me. My grace is sufficient." [59-1220M Conference with God, Jeffersonville IN
“And he walked to the Red Sea. And when he did, he raised the staff of God before the Red Sea, and she opened up and they crossed over on dry land. God makes a way of escape. "Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but God loves to deliver them out of them all... And all that live godly in Christ Jesus, shall suffer the persecutions." The conference was held; orders was given; and they went marching forward.” [60-0108 Conference With God, Tifton GA]
“During the time that He was going to punish the unbeliever, He made a way for the believer. The same thing He does each time. In the days when He was going to destroy the world by water, He made a way of escape for Noah. In the days that He was going to drown Egypt, He made a way of escape across the sea for His people. How God makes His way! And where there is no way, He is that Way. He is that Way! Now we realize that we are facing some of the... one of the greatest hours that history has ever known. It isn't exactly the warhead with the bright shiny missile, with a head on it, that we should be afraid of. It's the churches we should be afraid of. It's the hour that we're living that we should watch.” [65-0718E Spiritual Food In Due Season, Jeffersonville IN]
“You're not condemned because you are a sinner; you're condemned because you don't accept Jesus as your Saviour. Now, God would be unjust to condemn you and not make a preparation for you to come out of it, because you were borned in sin, shaped in iniquity, come to the world speaking lies. No matter who your parents was, or what they were, you're still just a sinner, as any other child, when you're born in this world. We're all born in sin. We could not save ourself. We could no more save ourself, than we could take our boot straps and lift ourself over the moon. We could not do it. We're totally helpless. And therefore, God would not condemn you on those basis because you are a sinner. He'd condemn you because you refuse to take the way of escape. So therefore, it isn't God; it's yourself. You condemn yourself. And when you condemn yourself, there's nobody to pity but yourself. That's all. We're... You--you must pity yourself, because you haven't accepted God's provided way of escape. Now, when God makes His ways, just wonder wh--how He feels when He makes a way for us, for our healing, for our salvation, for our comfort, for our peace, and all these things, and we just walk away and leave them. It must make Him feel terribly bad.” [61-0125 Why, Beaumont TX]
“And today, men are stricken blind because they are rejecting God, mercy. That only leaves judgment left. But God in His love and mercy has so appropriated a way, that before Divine judgment ever strikes, there is a way. God makes a way of escape for all those who desire to follow that way. That's the mercies of Him, making a way of escape. "Not willing that any should perish, but all might come to repentance." He's in the world today showing signs and wonders, and raising up people, great things taking place, showing signs in the heaven above, and on earth, signs.” [55-0522 The Ark, Jeffersonville IN]
