Today’s Scripture
“After forty days of scouting out the land, they returned home. They presented themselves before Moses and Aaron and the whole congregation of the People of Israel in the Wilderness of Paran at Kadesh. They reported to the whole congregation and showed them the fruit of the land. Then they told the story of their trip: "We went to the land to which you sent us and, oh! It does flow with milk and honey! Just look at this fruit! The only thing is that the people who live there are fierce, their cities are huge and well fortified. Worse yet, we saw descendants of the giant Anak. Amalekites are spread out in the Negev; Hittites, Jebusites, and Amorites hold the hill country; and the Canaanites are established on the Mediterranean Sea and along the Jordan." Caleb interrupted, called for silence before Moses and said, "Let's go up and take the land, now. We can do it." But the others said, "We can't attack those people; they're way stronger than we are." They spread scary rumors among the People of Israel. They said, "We scouted out the land from one end to the other, it's a land that swallows people whole. Everybody we saw was huge. Why, we even saw the Nephilim giants (the Anak giants come from the Nephilim). Alongside them we felt like grasshoppers. And they looked down on us as if we were grasshoppers." Numbers 13:25-33

Today’s Thought
Remember it’s your faith that makes all the unbelief around you mad. Once you release faith out of your mouth, all the unbelief around you will respond with a negative report. Be on the lookout for the evil report and resist it with your faith.

Today’s Confession
Lord, thank you for your Word and the strengthening of my faith as I receive it. The strength of my faith bothers those around me, trying to change my faith into unbelief while encouraging bad thoughts and ideas. I am strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. I will be watchful toward all things that present itself to me, and my faith will reject all which are against the Word of God.
