Numbers 13:27 (NKJV) 27 Then they told him, and said: “We went to the land where you sent us. It truly flows with milk and honey, and this is its fruit.
Moses sent some men to spy out the land that God had given to them.
They brought back some incredible fruit from that land. But they also saw something negative in the land, as well. They let the negative dictate whether or not they could go and possess the land, which God had given to them.
Numbers 13:28 (NKJV) 28 Nevertheless the people who dwell in the land are strong; the cities are fortified and very large; moreover we saw the descendants of Anak there.
Their report showed that they were afraid and intimidated. They let what they saw cause fear in their hearts.
One of the men, named Caleb, saw it with eyes of faith. He was ready and willing to do whatever it took to possess the land.
Numbers 13:30 (NKJV) 30 Then Caleb quieted the people before Moses, and said, “Let us go up at once and take possession, for we are well able to overcome it.”
It doesn’t matter how big or bad things may look. Just as Caleb was willing to face it and take possession of what was given to them, so must we be willing to do this when God gives something to us. When it’s too big for us, we have to take faith steps.
Let us go and possess what God has already given to us today.
