Today: [Numbers Chapter Twenty-Three] Rising Above Man’s Curse. In this chapter the prophet Balaam continues to work with Balak to curse God’s people. Balaam had an accurate gift but a wrong motivation. He attempts to curse the people but finds that it isn’t possible to curse that which God has blessed. Balak tries several times to sacrifice and humble himself to God in order to get God to work against Israel but it doesn’t work. Your enemies are never so humble and spiritual as when they are seeking to do you wrong. The key to overcome when others are working against us spiritually is to keep seeking the kingdom and refuse to be distracted.
