“But my servant Caleb, because he had another spirit with him, and hath followed me fully, him will I bring into the land whereinto he went; and his seed shall possess it” (Numbers 14:24).
God is speaking to Moses. Joshua would be included in this blessing a little later, but here the Lord points out Caleb and announces that even though the full generation of people over twenty years of age will die in the wilderness, Caleb will not. He will go into the land. His children and his grandchildren and their children will possess the land. This different spirit in Caleb is demonstrated by his willingness to stand against the majority, his desire to obey the Lord, and his assurance that God is greater than any obstacle. Wow! I want to be a modern day Caleb. How about you?
For today: By the way I live today, may others see that I am trusting in the Lord.
