Number 13:33

[JosephR]

We saw the Nephilim there (the descendants of Anak come from the Nephilim). We seemed like grasshoppers in our own eyes, and we looked the same to them."

Later a young man. Would show the Israelite's fear held no meaning.

It took a young man with faith to over come fear...and held a nation back.

That young man was King David.

 

[JosephR]

tho you may think you are small. If God stand with you, who can stand against you ? Do not hold a nation back with your personal fears,but let faith lead you to a promised land.

 

[JosephR]

some of the most horrific passages in the OT deal with these issues...

Kill all the men women children and even the cattle.... let not one remnant of them remain... and historically Israel to this day deals with those people when they did not finish these commands...

History cannot make a sovereign God forget His own Commands.
