"But the men who had gone up with him said, 'We are not able to go up against the people, for they are stronger than we." v31 Numbers 13 NKJV
The recce team had been to check out the land of Canaan. Caleb reported that they could easily possess the land. However, the others gave a bad report, as shown above. Note the words, 'for they are stronger than we.' They were driven by fear, one could read it in their description of the place. Therefore, they wanted to remain in their comfort zone. This is not where God wants you to be. Yes it is very cosy there but, there comes a time when you have to put your foot down in the water and cross over. Bob Gass once said, 'Our attitude will either lift us above our circumstances, or bury us beneath them.' I read somewhere that 'Achievers are not avoiders. Not only do they find solutions to the problems of life but, they discover a tremendous power within themselves - Jesus' 1 John 4:4.
Who do you believe? God's Word says, 'I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me' Philippians 4:13. However, your inner self may tell you, 'It can't be done, it's best you leave it alone.' How many times does something look impossible simply because you think it is? You either believe a good report or, accept a bad one. The choice is yours; but what you choose will change your life.
Let me tell you something, God sees you as a winner - an overcomer; you may see yourself as a loser or just an ordinary person in the street who is going nowhere; but God can use an ordinary person in the street if you let Him.
It's time to stop the doubt and lose the fear - you belong to God. Start seeing yourself as a person with a giant-killer mentality. Remember, people will see you as you see yourself. If you walk as a giant-killer, people will see this. It's time to stand up tall and strong. Too long have you hidden away in a corner. Its time to put on your armour and walk as a warrior of Jesus Christ. He chose you - conscripted you into His army. He pressed the button of your life - you made the choice. Therefore, giant-killer, make a stand because you are of high value to Jesus.
