Believed and trusted in God

If the LORD delights in us, He will bring us into this land, a land flowing with milk and honey, and He will give it to us.Only do not rebel against the LORD, and do not be afraid of the people of the land, for they will be like bread for us. Their protection has been removed, and the LORD is with us. Do not be afraid of them!” Numbers 14:6 BSB
Instructed to Meditate on & obey Scripture
