What happens when fear speaks louder than faith? In this sermon, we examine Israel’s critical moment at the edge of the Promised Land—and the tragic consequences of unbelief.
Though God had already promised the land, the people chose to trust the report of fear rather than the word of the Lord. Ten spies focused on giants and obstacles, while only Joshua and Caleb believed God was able to do what He said. The result was discouragement, rebellion, and a refusal to move forward in faith.
This passage challenges us to examine our own hearts. Are we living by sight—or by faith? Will we trust God’s promises, or allow fear to keep us from all He has prepared for us?
