Power of Perspective – Numbers 13:25-33

 

The Christian life is not about achieving, it’s about receiving

 

When we lose perpective: 

#1 We get stressed out by conflicting information

 

#2 We develop a scarcity mentality

 

#3 We fulfill our own self-defeating prophecies

 

#4 We infect others with our negativity 

 

#5 We project our own insecurities onto others

 

2 Chronicles 20:29 – “And the fear of God came on all the kingdoms of the countries when they heard that the Lord had fought against the enemies of Israel.”

 

In order to keep proper perspective:

Magnify the Lord!

 

Isaiah 66:1-2 “Thus says the Lord: “Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool; what is the house that you would build for me, and what is the place of my rest? All these things my hand has made, and so all these things came to be, declare the Lord. But this is the one to whom I will look: he who is humble and contrite in spirit and trembles at my word.”

 

Psalm 34 “I will bless the Lord at all times, his praise shall continually be in my mouth. My soul makes its boast in the Lord, let the humble hear and be glad, O Magnify the Lord with me let us exalt his name together!”
