Numbers 13:26-14:3. The spies returned and laid out a not so great report of the Promised Land. All because they were fearful. Yes, they had obstacles they would work through to get the Promised Land. Just like you and me, we have giants we must face if we are going to become the men and women God wants us to be.

Selected verses from Exodus 15, 16 & 17. In each of these chapters, we see where God is providing for the needs of Israel. We can trust God to need our needs as well.

Exodus 32:1-9, Here we Israel worship their created god, the golden calf. We may look with disdain at their example, but who, or what, have you placed in the spot that God should have in your life. The tabernacle was placed at the exact center of the camp of the Israelites, signifying that God should be the center of our lives. Does He have that spot in your life?

1 Corinthians 11:1, Paul is teaching us that he is our example to following Christ. Many times, we look to people for inspiration, for leadership, for mentorship. Unfortunately, many times, those people are false teachers who are preaching and teaching a false message. By looking at the example of Paul, we can trust that his is a true teacher, because he is following Christ.

Romans 12:1-2, Paul teaches us that we need to offer ourselves as a living sacrifice to God. That means we are giving God control, and that is something that many of us are unwilling to do. Until we accept that calling, we will never be where God wants us to be.

John 21:20-22, in these verses, Peter learns a valuable lesson, not to be overcome with wanting to know what others are doing.
