Bible Verse of The Day – 5-26-22

Numbers 14:24 (NKJV) 24 But My servant Caleb, because he has a different spirit in him and has followed Me fully, I will bring into the land where he went, and his descendants shall inherit it.

Caleb had a different spirit in him; a spirit that followed God.

He had a good attitude, he followed God wholeheartedly and was very devoted. That was the difference, in a nutshell, between Caleb and the Israelites.

How do we ever get to the promised land God has for us? With a good spirit, and being willing to obey!

We can’t just pretend that we are OK with what God is doing in our lives. It has to be real, genuine and proven through our actions.

The Israelites couldn’t get away with their heart condition. It showed!

It showed in everything they did and everything they spoke.

They did things that kept them from entering into God’s promises for them.

If they’d had the right spirit and their hearts were willing, they could have made this journey in 12 days.

However, instead, they complained that they did not have enough food. They said it would be better to be slaves in Egypt than to starve in the wilderness.

They wanted to go back to where God brought them from.

Sometimes God will set us free from a situation. It might be freedom from an area, or even from certain people.

At first, we may like it, but some days part of us may want to go back. Why? Because we are familiar with what once was . And in some ways familiarity brings us comfort.

Let’s keep our heart on God and His promise for us; that it may come to fruition.

Stay obedient to His plan. He will get us there if we don’t let our mind and emotions long after the “once was”, causing us to give up hope and lose our faith.
