Arresting The Kadesh Barnea Syndrome
Contributed by Babatunmishe Oke on Apr 9, 2018 (message contributor)
Summary: Tonight we focus on dealing with what can be termed the Kadesh Barnea Syndrome. No copyrights are intended to be broken. This is an original sermon by pastor Oke.
New King James Version (NKJV)
28 Where can we go up? Our brethren have discouraged our hearts, saying, “The people are greater and taller than we; the cities are great and fortified up to heaven; moreover we have seen the sons of the Anakim there.”
Deuteronomy 2:14
New King James Version (NKJV)
14 And the time we took to come from Kadesh Barnea until we crossed over the Valley of the Zered was thirty-eight years, until all the generation of the men of war was consumed from the midst of the camp, just as the Lord had sworn to them.
I call this the Kadesh Barnea syndrome. It is a syndrome of moving in circles and getting stuck on the verge of a breakthrough. This comes when we doubt God’s Word and ability. It comes when we listen to other voices rather that God’s voice. Poor self-image or esteem manifests at that point and it leads to unnecessary struggling.
The spirit of Kadesh Barnea, is the power behind wrong positioning, dashed hope and expectations, being in the wrong place for favor, vagabond motions, unpardonable errors, being singled out for punishment, beating about the bush, helpers becoming uncooperative, failure at the edge of breakthroughs, etc.
Lets read some scriptures and then pray!
Scripture Reading:
Deuteronomy 1:21
New King James Version (NKJV)
21 Look, the Lord your God has set the land before you; go up and possess it, as the Lord God of your fathers has spoken to you; do not fear or be discouraged.’
