This lesson from Numbers 13–14 recounts Israel’s failure to trust God when faced with entering the Promised Land. Though the land was rich and fruitful, ten of the twelve spies focused on the strength of the enemy rather than the power of God, stirring fear among the people. Only Caleb and Joshua urged faith and obedience. The people rebelled, longing to return to Egypt, and God judged them: the unbelieving generation would die in the wilderness. The lesson warns that when obstacles seem bigger than God, faith falters. True faith obeys God's Word despite fear, trusting His promises above all.
