God might fulfill our wildest dreams and we still might fall to the sin Eve fell to. Because as luscious as Eden was, she just couldn’t take her focus away from the one fruit that she couldn’t have. Everything she could have needed was right there but she took it for granted because she looked at it through the lens of deprivation not gratitude.
And this is what I want us to talk about today as we continue on the talk about the tests of abundance. Because it doesn’t matter how many of our prayers are answered, it will never be enough. It will never mean anything to us as long as there’s no gratitude in our hearts. We will always focus on what is missing. And this is why Deuteronomy 8:10 tells us that we shall not take for granted even the fact that we have eaten and are full.
