DCLM Higher Everyday 6 January 2026 Devotional by Pastor W. F. Kumuyi — Safety For The Sanctified

Topic: Safety For The Sanctified

Text: Numbers 14: 36-38

36And the men, which Moses sent to search the land, who returned, and made all the congregation to murmur against him, by bringing up a slander upon the land,

37Even those men that did bring up the evil report upon the land, died by the plague before the LORD.

38But Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, which were of the men that went to search the land, lived still.

Key Verse: “But Joshua the son of Nun, and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, which were of the men that went to search the land, lived still” (Numbers 14:38).

Message

A popular axiom says: “No harm befalls the righteous, for their path is guarded by divine hands.” This statement reassures true believers of the gospel that God is solidly behind them at all times. This was evident in the lives of Joshua and Caleb who were unique in character and obedience to God. They were the only two spies who had faith in God’s promise to give the Israelites the land of Canaan when the other ten spies created problems in the camp of Israel through their negative statements about the same land. God rewarded them with long life as they were the only two of their generation who entered the Promised Land.

GOSPEL REALM: STEPS TO SALVATION
1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
