Morning Light - Numbers 23

[Today: Numbers 23] 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 condemn that which God has blessed. Balak tries several times to sacrifice and humble himself to God 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 seek the kingdom and refuse to be distracted.
