Scripture Passage: Numbers 13:6-30
Our View of Situations is Based on Our Self-Perception
Twelve men were sent to spy on the land of Canaan. Ten of them said,”And there we saw the giants…..and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.” Two had a different opinion and one said, “Let us go up at once and possess it; for we are well able to overcome it.” The situation was the same; there were giants in the land. However, their view of the situation was different because their self-perception was different.
The lesson here is this; your self-perception will affect your view of situations. If your self-perception is negative, you will not see the good in any situation. If your self-perception is positive, you will only see the good in every situation. What you see precedes what you become; therefore, change your self-perception and you will change your life.
Prayer: Father, help me to see myself the way you see me.
