“33 And there we saw the Nephilim (the sons of Anak, who come from the Nephilim), and we seemed to ourselves like grasshoppers, and so we seemed to them.” ~ Numbers 13:13
The Israelites had just come from victory after victory, but when they saw the Nephilim, they allowed fear to take over. Fear will distort your view of yourself. And when you see yourself as small and weak, then that is how others will begin to see you. The Israelites saw how great their opponents were and couldn’t see how great they were. They couldn’t see how blessed they were. They couldn’t see the strength that God gave them. They couldn’t see past the mask that Fear put on them. The Israelites saw themselves as Fear saw them, not as God did. Fear will distort your self-image. Don’t allow yourself to put on Fear’s mask. When that thought comes into your mind, cast it down in the Name of Jesus. Don’t accept anything less than what you deserve. You are a Child of God.
Peace. Love. Go Forth and Remove Your Mask.
