Isaiah 53:1 NKJV
Who has believed our report? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?
Moses was arguably the best leader that ever walked the surface of the earth—of course after Jesus. He sent 12 spies—representing the 12 tribes of Israel—to go and spy the land of Canaan. You know the story.
10 of them came with evil reports:
“We are not able to go up against the people, for they are stronger than we”, “The land devour its inhabitants”, “There we saw giants, and we were like grasshoppers." Said the majority.
Caleb and Joshua brought good reports: “Let us go up at once and take possession, for we are well able to overcome it”, “The land is an exceedingly good land”, “The Lord is with us, do not fear them”
Unfortunately, the people chose to believe the evil reports.
Whose report do you believe too? Reports that when you finish school there is no job for you? Reports that the top is meant for only the children of the rich? Reports of limitations and impossibilities?
Whatever the reports are, whether it's the majority's or not, if it's not the Lord's report, it is null and void.
In John's gospel, chapter 12, from verse 37, the bible recorded that though Jesus did many signs and wonders, the people did not believe Him. They were there when He raised the dead, healed the sick, turned water to wine, and many more. Yet they didn't believe. Then John quoted Isaiah the prophet: “Who has believed our report?”
With God all things are possible, do you believe that?
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me, do you believe that? “When men are cast down, then thou shalt say, There is lifting up...”(Job 22:29). Which one do you believe?
"Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not."(Jer 33:3). You believe that report?
As for me, I believe the Lord's report. He told me He'd never leave me nor forsake me.
He said He will do something new for me. He said He will enlarge my coast and give me rest.
He is not a man that He should lie.
I believe Him. I don't care what the world says, I believe the Lord's report.
I believe the Word.
Be Blessed !
