The power of our conclusions

Our conclusions about circumstances are almost always more important than the circumstances themselves. Consider the story of the twelve spies in Numbers 13 and 14.

After forty days, they came back to Moses and were divided into two groups: 1) Joshua and Caleb, and 2) the other ten spies. Both saw the same set of circumstances but put a different conclusion to what they saw. Many factors contribute to how we make conclusions. Some of them are:

  • Whether we have been renewing our minds on spiritual faith food or worldly doubt food (Romans 12:2)
  • Whether we believe God has equipped us to be victorious or has not really promised that (Deuteronomy 28)
