Winners Mentality Points for Your Organisation
Everyone in business has a desire to be successful, whether it be Corporate Mountain, the Media Mountain, Government Mountain or Ministry Mountain, there are some mountains you are going to have to conquer and take by force. In the book of Numbers thirteen Moses sent twelve Leaders to spy out the Land that God had given to the Children of Israel, I need to reiterate that “God had already given it to them.” But they still had to fight
The twelve spies searched out the land for forty days and came back with a report. Ten spies said it couldn’t be done there are giants in the land and we feel like grasshoppers; two said let us go up immediately as we are well able to conquer them.
The report of the majority affected the community; they murmured and complained that God had brought them out of Egypt to kill them. They complained against Moses and God, the result was catastrophic. God told them they would wonder in the wilderness until they eventually died, that is what they believed, that is what they spoke that was what they received, and their punishment would be forty years in the wilderness. Out of a Nation of people given a promise of the good life only two people would eventually see it: Caleb and Joshua.
.
There are some powerful lessons to be learned from this story.
Every one of us, whether we believe it or not are on an assignment, only we can accomplish it and only we will be held accountable for in its completion. To conquer your mountain, have victory over giants and to claim your promise there are some rules you will have to apply to have victory in what you desire.
