WHEN YOU’RE WALKING IN HIGH COTTON
WHEN YOU'RE WALKING IN HIGH COTTON. [DON'T FORGET GOD WHEN LIFE GETS GOOD] Deuteronomy 8:10–18 KJV This message is named after an old Southern expression describing a season when life is going well and blessings are plentiful. In Deuteronomy 8, Israel stood on the edge of the Promised Land after forty years in the wilderness. God was about to replace their wandering with abundance, but Moses warned them of a danger they might not expect: prosperity could cause them to forget the God they depended upon in adversity. There are three important truths from Deuteronomy 8: 1.remember where God brought you from, 2.be careful what you do when you get there, and 3.never forget who owns the cotton field. Every ability, opportunity, possession, answered prayer, and blessing ultimately comes from the hand of God. Sometimes the greatest test of faith is not how we respond when everything goes wrong, but how we live when everything goes right. Whether we are struggling through a wilderness, waiting for a harvest, or walking in high cotton, we still need God. And above every earthly blessing stands the greatest blessing of all—salvation through Jesus Christ. A person can gain everything this world offers and still lose his soul. Jesus Christ died for our sins, was buried, rose again, and will save everyone who calls upon Him by faith. When you're walking in high cotton, enjoy the blessing—but never forget the Blesser.
