Numbers 13:25-28, 25 And they returned from spying out the land after forty days. 26 Now they departed and came back to Moses and Aaron and all the congregation of the children of Israel in the Wilderness of Paran, at Kadesh; they brought back word to them and to all the congregation, and showed them the fruit of the land. 27 Then they told him, and said: “We went to the land where you sent us. It truly flows with milk and honey, and this is its fruit. 28 Nevertheless the people who dwell in the land are strong; the cities are fortified and very large; moreover we saw the descendants of Anak there. (NKJV)

In this sermon, we see that we can view things in two ways, either through eyes of fear or through eyes of faith. In Numbers 13 we read the account of the 12 spies sent in to spy out the promised land. Of the 12, only two came back with a positive report, only two saw through eyes of faith, and said, “we are well able to overcome it”! There are 3 things that we learn about seeing through eyes of fear; 1) They Misunderstood And Underestimated What God Could Do, 2) They Underestimated What They Could Do, 3) Problems Never Defeat Us As Much As Your Perspective Defeats Us. The result is discouragement, discontentment, and defeat. We need to see through eyes of faith, and trust God that He will do what He said He would do!
