				NUMBERS 13:25-33
      25)  After exploring the land of Canaan forty days,
      26)  the twelve men returned to Kadesh in the Paran Desert and told Moses, Aaron, and the people what they had seen. They showed them the fruit
      27)  and said: Look at this fruit! The land we explored is rich with milk and honey.
      28)  But the people who live there are strong, and their cities are large and walled. We even saw the three Anakim clans.
      29)  Besides that, the Amalekites live in the Southern Desert; the Hittites, Jebusites, and Amorites are in the hill country; and the Canaanites live along the Mediterranean Sea and the Jordan River.
      30)  Caleb calmed down the crowd and said, "Let's go and take the land. I know we can do it!"
      31)  But the other men replied, "Those people are much too strong for us."
      32)  Then they started spreading rumors and saying, "We won't be able to grow anything in that soil. And the people are like giants.
      33)  In fact, we saw the Nephilim who are the ancestors of the Anakim. They were so big that we felt as small as grasshoppers."
      
      NUMBERS 14:1-9
      1)  After the Israelites heard the report from the twelve men who had explored Canaan, the people cried all night
      2)  and complained to Moses and Aaron, "We wish we had died in Egypt or somewhere out here in the desert!
      3)  Is the LORD leading us into Canaan, just to have us killed and our women and children captured? We'd be better off in Egypt."
      4)  Then they said to one another, "Let's choose our own leader and go back."
      5)  Moses and Aaron bowed down to pray in front of the crowd.
      6)  Joshua and Caleb tore their clothes in sorrow
      7)  and said: We saw the land ourselves, and it's very good.
      8)  If we obey the LORD, he will surely give us that land rich with milk and honey.
      9)  So don't rebel. We have no reason to be afraid of the people who live there. The LORD is on our side, and they won't stand a chance against us!
      
      JOSHUA 2:9-11
      9)  She said to them, "I know the LORD will give you this land. Your presence terrifies us. All the people in this country are deathly afraid of you.
      10)  We've heard how the LORD dried up the water of the Red Sea in front of you when you left Egypt. We've also heard what you did to Sihon and Og, the two kings of the Amorites, who ruled east of the Jordan River. We've heard how you destroyed them for the LORD.
      11)  When we heard about it, we lost heart. There was no courage left in any of us because of you. The LORD your God is the God of heaven and earth.
      
      NUMBERS 13:27-28
      27)  They told Moses, "We explored the land and found it to be rich and fertile; and here is some of its fruit.
      28)  But the people who live there are powerful, and their cities are very large and well fortified. Even worse, we saw the descendants of the giants there.
      
      EPHESIANS 2:1-4
      1)  And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins
      2)  Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
      3)  Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.
      4)  But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,
      
      GENESIS 50:20
      But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive.
      
      PSALM 3:1-3
      1) LORD, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me.
      2)  Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah.
      3)  But thou, O LORD, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.

      Because Our God Is Able!
