Reading about the Israelites and their predicament in Numbers 13:1-2, 27-33 we find that the
company is divided between 10 who THINK
they cannot enter God’s promise and 2 who THINK
they were well able to do what God wanted them to do. Each group got their
choice. Those who thought dying in the wilderness was better than risking believing
and maybe get killed by their enemies moved in circles until they died. The two
gentlemen who thought they can possess the land were delayed but they did possess
the land. This is put in the Bible for our instruction, not to fill up space. We
make the following observations:

ü
It is possible to fight people that are bigger
than you. Caleb and Joshua did and they won. David fought Goliath and won.

ü
It is possible to pull down buildings you have
no tools at the moment to deal with. Jericho and Ai came down.

ü
Don’t focus on the impossible circumstances—keep
your thoughts on God’s promise and ability

ü
Let your faith go beyond now and what you have
now

3.
What you allow your mouth to utter becomes your
possession in time

ü
Let your mouth speak your faith not your fears –
we are able

ü
Speak of your trust in the promises of God not
the prevailing circumstances
