Joshua son of Nun and Caleb son of Jephunneh, members of the scouting party, ripped their clothes and addressed the assembled People of Israel: “The land we walked through and scouted out is a very good land—very good indeed. If GOD is pleased with us, he will lead us into that land, a land that flows, as they say, with milk and honey. And he’ll give it to us. Just don’t rebel against GOD! And don’t be afraid of those people. Why, we’ll have them for lunch! They have no protection and GOD is on our side. Don’t be afraid of them!” But, up in arms now, the entire community was talking of hurling stones at them. Just then the bright Glory of GOD appeared at the Tent of Meeting. Every Israelite saw it. GOD said to Moses, “How long will these people treat me like dirt? How long refuse to trust me? And with all these signs I’ve done among them! I’ve had enough—I’m going to hit them with a plague and kill them. But I’ll make you into a nation bigger and stronger than they ever were.”

Over the next three days we’ll reflect on God’s promises and the importance of putting our faith into action. God wants us to believe in Him, but belief alone is not enough to actually propel us forward. He also expects us to step out in obedience to claim His promises.
Does your mindset need a check-up? Are you a cup half-empty person? Do you tend towards fear instead of faith? When faced with a challenge, are you filled with dread? The Israelites give us a clear mindset challenge when scouts go to survey the land God is giving them. Ten come back with a fearful report, but two return full of faith and hope. How can we beat the odds and adopt a Biblical mindset? Let’s start today.
