WHAT YOU SEE MATTERS

*STUDY SCRIPTURE.*
Numbers 13:17-19(KJV)
And Moses sent them to spy out the land of Canaan, and said unto them, Get you up this [way] southward, and go up into the mountain: And see the land, what it [is]; and the people that dwelleth therein, whether they [be] strong or weak, few or many; And what the land [is] that they dwell in, whether it [be] good or bad; and what cities [they be] that they dwell in, whether in tents, or in strong holds;

*WHAT YOU SEE MATTERS.*
When the Lord through the man of God, Moses, sent the twelve spies to go and search out the promised Land, He told them to go and see whether the land is good or bad as seen in our theme scripture. However, when these men went out, they instead saw giants and cried out in unbelief saying, The land we traveled through and explored will devour anyone who goes to live there. We even saw giants there, the descendants of Anak. Next to them we felt like grasshoppers, and that’s what they thought, too!

However, God praised one of the twelve spies called Caleb saying, “But my servant Caleb has a different attitude than the others have. He has remained loyal to me, so I will bring him into the land he explored. His descendants will possess their full share of that land.” Why? This is because, even though Caleb was among the twelve spies, when he came back from searching the land he instead said, “The land, which we passed through to search it, [is] an exceeding good land. If the LORD delight in us, then he will bring us into this land, and give it to us; a land which floweth with milk and honey.” So, while the other spies saw giants, Caleb saw God’s love for Israel. While the other spies saw fear, Caleb still saw God’s love for Israel.

In the same way, child of God, it matters what you see. The day you got born again, your vision changed. Your vision is no longer of flesh and blood, but rather it is of God. Therefore, refuse to see things that God has not spoken concerning you, and instead focus your eyes on what God has spoken concerning you.

Hallelujah!

*NUGGET.*
Refuse to see things that God has not spoken concerning you, and instead focus your eyes on what God has spoken concerning you.

*PRAYER.*
Heavenly Father, I thank You for this knowledge. As a child of God, the bearing of my vision is no longer toward flesh and blood, but toward God. I therefore refuse to see what God has not spoken concerning me. My eyes are set on the things which are above where Christ is. My vision is of God. I refuse to see sickness, failure, or problems. I choose to see the word of God spoken of me, in Jesus’ name, Amen.
