NEVER SEE YOURSELF AS A GRASSHOPPER

“And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.” Numbers 13:33 KJV

Whatsoever God has declared concerning you will certainly come to pass. But you have a responsibility never to see yourself as a grasshopper. According to Numbers 13, Moses sent 12 spies into the Promised Land. And they came back with grapes that they couldn’t carry. The grapes were so heavy!  They saw grapes and they also saw giants. But God said I have given you the land. My question is: Why didn’t God tell them about the giants? The giants ought not to be the object of their focus! In other words, see the grapes, don’t see the giants. See giants and you will become weak. Choose to see the grapes. See the milk and the honey.

Those of them who went in and were seeing giants came back and were saying that they were like grasshoppers. How dare you see yourself as grasshopper when God has already spoken? God has declared that the land is yours. Why then are you seeing giants? Two of them, Joshua and Caleb said we are well able to overcome them, because God is able to deliver them into our hands. They were the only people who saw themselves as giants. And they were the only people from that generation that made it into the Promised Land.

Beloved, I urge you today to always see what God has spoken concerning your life. Once you see it no devil can kill you until it is fulfilled. Tempest will rage, billows will toss high, sickness and diseases will come but you will overcome all of them. The reason why some of you are having challenges is that you are not seeing what God told you. You are not seeing what God has prepared for you? There is power in what you see concerning what God has spoken about you.
