Numbers 13:23-14:1 – Catastrophizing (predicting that things will turn out badly) and overgeneralization destroy sanctified thinking.
Numbers 14:2-22 Ten times they lost control.

Desert of Sin: Exodus 16:2-3
At Rephidim: Exodus 17:3
Romans 8:15 We are not the slaves of fear; we are the sons of God.
1 Peter 5:5-9; 2 Timothy 1:7 Give your anxiety to God; claim what is yours in Christ.

Matthew 6:34; Hebrews 3:7-12, 15; 4:7 Stop negative predictions; live one day at a time.
