Say unto them, As truly as I live, saith the Lord , as ye have spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you:-Numbers 14:28
Moses sent twelve spies into the land of Canaan, to go spy, and bring back report of the land. Ten out of the twelve, said they can't take the land, reason being that the occupants of the land were giants, too strong for them to overcome, and that they were as grasshoppers in their sight. By their report, they were able to convince majority of the Israelites of their inadequacy, inability etc., so the people murmured against God, Moses and Aaron, therefore sparking off lamentation throughout their camp.
Although God forgave them for doubting Him, and He didn't smite them as He had intended, for their unbelief, and rebellious act; because Moses had interceded for them. Yet, God could not change what had come out of their mouth and had believed in their heart, Ecclesiastes 5:6.
But there were two among the twelve that said, we are well able to overcome them, no matter their size and capacity, because we have Almighty God on our side. These two believed the report of God, irrespective of what they saw, as a result, they were the only two, in that generation that enter into the promised land, because they had faith in God.
Today, people believe all manner of evil reports, the reports of doctors, report of the economy, negative report here and there. But whose report are you going to believe? Because if you don't side in with God, to believe His report(Word), either way, you're going to have what you say, and believe in your heart.
Only in God, do we have good report, you can't get it elsewhere.
No matter how contrary things may seemed; only God can overturn any situation to your favour. No matter how weak you feel, the word of God says, "... Let the weak say, I am strong." Joel 3:10. Believe the word, and the you will be strengthened.
Speak faith, act faith.
God bless you!
Mark E. Airononi
