In Numbers 22–24, we watch an anxious king hire a pagan prophet to curse Israel, only to discover that no scheme can overturn what God has already blessed. While Israel camps in the valley below and unaware of the threat against them, God turns every attempted curse into a word of protection and promise. Even Balaam, a man pulled by greed and divided loyalties, is compelled to speak truth he cannot control. Through a talking donkey, an angel with a drawn sword, and four unexpected oracles, God shows that his purposes stand firm and his care for his people is stronger than any threat. Join us on Sunday as we revisit the reminder that our security rests not in our performance but in the faithfulness of the One who keeps watch over us.
