"Do you see what l see?"

"People who walk by sight see only opposition in the opportunity, like the ten spies. But people who walk by faith see opportunity in opposition, like Joshua and Caleb."

In Numbers 13, twelve spies were sent to explore the promised land of Canaan and all came back with a report. Only two gave a good report that the land was lush, flowing with milk and honey. The ten who gave the bad reports said the people were strong, there were giants who were mighty & violent warriors, the cities were fortified and the land ate people up.

  • Ten spies saw opposition. Simply put it this way - they placed more faith in the problems ahead than the promises of the Lord. They focused on what they saw and forgot what God had said.
  • Two spies saw opportunity. The two good spies, Joshua and Caleb, saw the same things, but their vision was completely different. Their faith was in the promises of God, not the problems ahead.

God did not bring the Israelites out of Egypt to wander in the wilderness forever. He was going to deliver them to the promised land. There are three things that prevented the Israelites from seeing clearly as God sees.

Fear

Fear clouds your vision and your thinking. It overwhelms you and disorients you. The Israelites were filled with fear, so they blamed walls, people, giants, terrains and even blamed the women and the children! (Num. 14:3) Fear is like a virus that spreads through the hearts of the entire nation. I pray that God would make us a people of great courage, who stand up for what’s right and care more for what’s biblical than what’s popular.

Unbelief

The Bible tells us it was unbelief that kept the Israelites out of the promised land (Heb. 3:19). They didn’t believe God was enough, so they forfeited the promises of God for the problems of life. This is exactly what happens when your vision gets cloudy. The only way to avoid this cloudy vision is by believing in God’s Word and seeing how God sees. It’s going to be hard to see how God sees, if you don’t know what God says, so we must study and meditate on the Word to learn about God’s promises for our lives.

Victim Mentality

The Israelites viewed themselves as victims who would be defeated by any opposition even though the Lord God had been guiding them since their exodus from Egypt. All along the way, God proved faithful in spite of the challenges and victories that flourished. Still when they were faced with the challenge of fighting for the promised land, the Israelites suddenly saw themselves as victims (Num.14:2-4). Their victim mentality made them focus on the past instead of the great future that God had for them. It erased all the promises of God and focused on the problems of life, to the point where they wished they would have died. God did not lead them to the promised land to be slaughtered, but before a single battle started, the Israelites believed they were already defeated.

The problem with the victim mentality is that we forget to see the blessings of the day. It poisons, not nourishes, our view of God, ourselves, and others. When we know God, we definitely are not victims. When we have a clear vision, we know there is victory in our Lord.

God is asking you today, “Do you see what I see?”

Seminar: The understanding of the meaning and need for Christian Ethics

20 February 2022 | 2.00pm - 3.30 pm

Do you have an understanding of the meaning and need for Christian Ethics? Are you equipped to handle the present-day worldviews and practices?

Come for a session for a bird eye view of Christian Ethics with Dr Michael Dalseno.

This course is an exposition of the foundations of Christian Ethics: its underlying theological convictions; its understanding of the nature of the good, of the moral self, and the criteria of ethical.

It emphasizes the importance of good facts, good scriptures, and good reasoning. Many of the tensions and complexities entailed in reaching quality ethical decisions will be identified, including the challenges presented by moral dilemmas and the difficulty of drawing lines in the face of new technologies.

This course brings awareness of alternative reasoning patterns shaped by various political and ideological agendas. In essence, this course will focus on ethical theory, decision models, and the practical application of ethics to some everyday contemporary issues.

Overall, this course will help you to ‘think ethically,’ enabling you to build, step by step, a sound argument that is underpinned by an appropriate ethical framework or structure.

The subject will also cover on the practical application of Ethics, from Reproductive Technologies to Homosexuality to Civil Disobedience, and future technology and ethics. Focussing on some.

It shows one to how to move from the Christian foundations to particular moral dilemmas, both personal and social.

A very interesting and valuable course for such a time as this.
