FRIDAY, June 19 Adelaide T. Case
Numbers 13:30 But Caleb quieted the people before Moses, and said, “Let us go up at once and occupy [the land], for we are well able to overcome it.”
The conquest of Canaan is deadly, one of the most gruesome and difficult stories we read in the Bible. Yet, in it we find an image of faithfulness. Even after hearing of the immensity of the obstacles, Caleb quiets Israel’s anxious murmuring and declares not only that they will win the battles ahead but also that they are “well able to overcome” them. Caleb believes God’s promise.
MOVING FORWARD: When have you felt confidence like Caleb? Share that story with us by using #ForwardDaybyDay.
