At the end of Numbers 13 there is an intriguing lesson about fear: The 12 spies were sent into the promised land but 10 of them came back with fearful tales of mighty GIANTS and cities with high, impenetrable WALLS. When the children of Israel were faced with what was portrayed as impossible odds, their courage collapsed. What they saw became bigger than what God had promised and they were unable to enter their heritage.

Forty years later, God leads them back to the very same point — but this time He shows, unmistakably, that He Himself could remove the obstacles.

Under Moses, Israel comes head to head with Og king of Bashan, a literal giant with an army of mighty warriors — and God gives them victory. The giant fell.

Next, under Joshua, Israel faced Jericho, which was a fortress with the towering walls that once made them tremble. However, those walls fall flat without Israel lifting a single weapon.

The message is deliberate: the things that once terrified them are the very things God completely obliterates before their very eyes.

These events become a pattern for our own walk of faith. God often brings us back to the places where we once felt small and afraid. He does this, not to crush us, but to show that He is stronger than our fears. Israel learned that giants fall, walls crumble, and battles are won not by human strength but by trust in the God who goes before His people. When we face our own “giants” and “walls,” we remember that God does not simply tell us not to fear — but He removes the very obstacles that keep us paralysed with terror. The wilderness taught Israel to trust; the victories in Bashan and Jericho proved that trust was well‑placed. So it is with us: the God who is leading us to His kingdom is the God who fights for us.

The Bible’s Enduring Relevance
Many view the Bible as an old book with limited modern value. Yet Scripture presents itself as God’s living, authoritative Word — timeless, unified, and trustworthy. If we dismiss the parts we find difficult or distasteful, we weaken confidence in the whole. The Bible claims divine origin and speaks accurately to human nature, morality, suffering, and hope.
Every Word is from God
Scripture insists that all of it is inspired:
• 2 Timothy 3:16–17 — God breathed and fully equips us.
• 2 Peter 1:20–21 — Written as the Spirit moved men.
• Psalm 12:6 — God’s words are flawless.
• Proverbs 30:5 — Every word is pure; rejecting any part undermines trust.
God’s Word does not age:
• Isaiah 40:8 — It stands forever.
• Psalm 119:89 — Settled in heaven.
• Matthew 24:35 — Jesus’ words never pass away. Cultures shift, but God’s truth remains constant.
The Bible Speaks to Human Problems
Human nature has not changed, so Scripture still addresses our deepest needs:
• Fear & Anxiety — Psalm 46:1–2; Philippians 4:6–7
• Identity & Purpose — Genesis 1:27; Ephesians 2:10
• Relationships — Colossians 3:13; Romans 12:18
• Suffering — Psalm 34:18; Romans 8:28
• Sin & Redemption — Romans 3:23–24; 1 John 1:9
The Bible diagnoses the heart and offers God’s truth, comfort, and salvation.
There is a danger to picking and choosing the parts we follow and those we dismiss as being no longer valid. If we decide to treat some parts as outdated and therefore able to be disregarded, we are taking liberties with God’s word and placing ourselves above Scripture:
• John 10:35 — Scripture cannot be broken.
• Matthew 5:17–18 — Not even the smallest stroke will pass away.
Trust in its promises requires trust in its commands, history, and doctrine.
A Living Word for a Living People
God’s Word is living and active (Hebrews 4:12). Its divine origin gives authority; its permanence gives relevance; its wisdom gives guidance. Rejecting any part weakens faith’s foundation. Embracing it wholly brings clarity, correction, and hope.
The Bible remains relevant because the God who spoke it has not changed — and human needs remain exactly the same as they have always been.
