YOU CAN HAVE WHAT YOU ARE SAYING: They Said, "Let Us Go Up At Once, And Possess It; for We Are Well Able To Overcome It." (v. 30). The other 10 came back with a negative, fearful report of giants in the land. The Bible calls their report "an evil report." Why ? It was a report of doubt and fear as well as unbelief. What, then, is a good report ? A report of the God kind of faith. The team fearful spies were in the majority, and the children of Israel excepted the majority report. When they did, they were saying they could take the lead. And they got exactly what they said. The spies in the rest of that generation of Israelites -- with the exception of Joshua and Caleb -- never saw the Promise Land. And you and I will not see the promises of God manifest in our lifetime unless we believe the Word of God ! They believe that they could take it, and they didn't. They wandered in the wilderness until they died. What they said came to pass ! (Number 14:24-29). There is an example of faith in reverse. After all, even when you doubt or full of fear and unbelief, you are believing something ! You are believing in defeat. You are believing the wrong thing. You always get in your life what you believe for and what you say. If you don't believe what you are saying, you shouldn't say it, because if you keep saying something long enough, those words as you have developed your self eventually will register on your spirit. And once they are registered on your spirit, they will control your decision in life. A REPORT OF FAITH: (numbers 14:6-8). "And Joshua The son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, which were all them that searched the land, rent their clothes and they spake unto all the company of the children of Israel, saying, The Land, which we passed through to search it, is an exceeding good land. If the Lord delight in us, then he will bring us into this land, and give it us; a laying with floweth with milk and honey. Only rebel not you against the Lord, neither fear your the people of the land; for they are bred for us: their defense is departed from them, and the Lord is with us: fear them not." Notice the good report of Joshua and Caleb, their trust was in the Lord, and their hearts were filled with faith that God was able to bring them into the land He had promised to their forefathers. Twice in verse nine they admonished the people not to fear. And what was the result of their report of faith ? They were the only two men of their generation to enter The Promise Land ! You can have what you say, if you believe and doubt not those things which you are say ! (Mark 11:23). Many people ask me why they can't get healed. I always smile and tell them they already have said they can't. There words gave them away. (Proverbs 6:2) you can locate people by what they say.
