12 spies are given a commission to spy out the land after forty days they return and give their perspective

Perspective– (viewpoint, outlook, perception, assessment.)

Sometimes our perspective is based on what we know or believe and have experienced.

The 10 Spies gave their evil report Vs. 31-33 (the perspective of the carnal not relying on God.)

  1. We are weak and they are strong.
  2. The land eateth up the inhabitance.
  3. The people are of great stature.
  4. We are but grasshoppers before them.

The 2 spies gave a report of faith Vs 13:30, 14:6-9 (The perspective of the faithful trusting in God)

  1. We are well able to overcome it.
  2. It is an exceeding good land.
  3. The Lord is the one who will give us this land.
  4. Their defenses are gone from them.
  5. The Lord is with us.

What is your perspective?

Is it negative or positive?

Do we rely on the arm of the flesh to get us through our troubles or do we rely on the arm of God to get us through this trail?
