Numbers 13

The Mission of the 12 Spies

Unbelief in a Christian’s life robs us of blessing.

1. The command to search out the land: Numbers 13:1-3.

Whose idea was it to send out the spies? Let’s look at Deuteronomy 1:20-24.

We have to walk by faith not by sight, but human nature says to walk by sight.

We are to trust and obey.

Psalm 37:3-5; James 1:5-8

2. The names of the spies: Numbers 13:4-16.

3. Directions given: Numbers 13:17-20.

4. Their explorations: Numbers 13:21-25.

Genesis 23:19; Genesis 49:29-31.

5. The report they brought: Numbers 13:26-33; Proverbs 10:18.
