God frequently told the progressive generations of the Israelites that he had given them the land of the Canaanites. The only needful thing was for them to receive the word of God and believe him as God who cannot deceive those who trust in him,rather, they neglected him.                        Most of the spies who went to survey the land reported with bad news that paralysed the mind of the people,instead of having positive attitude of Joshua and Caleb, who confessed that the land was good and would be theirs since God has promised them the land.                                                                                              The children of Is real were undertaken by murmuring as recorded in Number 14:3.
