Entertaining The Plan Of The Enemy

Numbers 22-24This is a reminder to not entertain the plan of the enemy. We must be for God or the enemy. There is no middle ground. Balaam was a prophet of God which also dabbled in the things of the world. He was known for blessing people, but he was also known for cursing people. He was called to curse God's people. If it had not been for God, Balaam would have done it for hire. God intervened and Balaam ended up blessing the people of God 3 times. An ass had to save Balaam's life when an angel of death was going to kill him. The donkey dashed Balaam's feet against the wall to save him. The donkey spoke when Balaam struck him 3 times. Likewise, God has to hurt us or allow hurt in order to save our lives. When God opened Balaam's eyes he saw the angel of death and fell on his face and repented.
