Morning by Morning, June 4 - “Spy Out the Land”
Good morning, Lord Jesus. Let my spirit awaken and arise into the newness of life You have for me today -- Father, Son, and Holy Spirit of God. ...
“Then the Lord spoke to Moses saying, ‘Send out for yourself men so that they may spy out the land of Canaan, which I am going to give to the sons of Israel; you shall send a man from each of their fathers' tribes, a leader from each tribe’” (Numbers 13:1–2).
My heart is Your Canaan -- the Promised Land of all You’ve set apart for me according to the promises of Your Word and the unfolding revelation of Your will for my life. If I’m willing to look and listen, to press in and pray, You show me glimpses and shadows of things to come as I “spy out the land.”
Some things You want me to know. Others, it’s best if I don’t. But in it all and through it all, You want me to trust You that it’s “an exceedingly good land” (Numbers 14:7). You want me to trust You that the plans You have for me are good plans, for my good and not for my harm, a future full of hope as I learn to put my faith in You (Jeremiah 29:11).
Come, Holy Spirit. Open the eyes of my heart to see the good land You’ve set before me. This day and every day, show me what I need to see and give me faith for what I don’t yet see. Give me grace to take hold and possess the fullness of my inheritance in You, my Promised Land of Your Abiding Presence with me through my life every step of the way.
As the Apostle Paul prayed by Your Spirit for me and for all who are called to come spy out the land and enter in to our inheritance in You:
“I pray that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give (us) a spirit of wisdom and revelation as (we) come to know Him, so that, with the eyes of (our) heart enlightened, (we) may know what is the hope to which He has called (us), what are the riches of His glorious inheritance among the saints, and what is the immeasurable greatness of His power for us who believe, according to the working of His great power!” (Ephesians 1:17-19). In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
