I have been listening to the Hero sermon series from NCC (National Community Church) for the last couple of days, and this morning I was listening to a sermon about Caleb.
Now most will know his name, but he basically lived in the shadow of Joshua. However, he had the best attitude of all the spies that was sent into the Promised Land, and had a belief greater than what he could see in the physical.
Numbers 13:26-29 (The Message)
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.”
From this section you can see that the scouts had no hope of being able to capture the land with their own power. In the very next verse, Caleb steps in
Caleb interrupted, called for silence before Moses and said, “Let’s go up and take the land—now. We can do it.”
What would happen in your life, if you started to take up a ‘Can Do’ attitude. To start to look at life with faith, and knowing that with God on your side, you can do anything.
We tend to get caught up in the fact that we, as people might not be able to do something, and then we forget that God is always with us, and the He is all powerful.
Let us start and be more positive, taking on a ‘Can Do’ attitude, and I promise you that life would just start to feel a bit more breezy.
