 God Warns Us to Take Heed as Prosperity is More Dangerous Than Adversity ㅡ


“Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.” (1 Corinthians 10:12) 

In the midst of prosperity lurks danger. Throughout the ages, riches and honor have ever been attended with peril to humility and spirituality. 

It is not the empty cup that we have difficulty in carrying; it is the cup full to the brim that must be carefully balanced. 

Affliction and adversity may cause sorrow, but it is prosperity that is most dangerous to spiritual life. Unless the human subject is in constant submission to the will of God, unless he is sanctified by the truth, prosperity will surely arouse the natural inclination to presumption. 

In the valley of humiliation, where men depend on God to teach them and to guide their every step, there is comparative safety. 

But the men who stand, as it were, on a lofty pinnacle, and who, because of their position, are supposed to possess great wisdom—these are in gravest peril. 

Unless such men make God their dependence, they will surely fall. 

(Prophets and Kings 59.3, 60.1)
