Can God use a rebellious prophet and a talking donkey to accomplish His will? In this episode, journey through Numbers 21–25 as Israel secures significant victories but faces new challenges from a scheming Moabite king and a greedy prophet named Balaam. Discover how God used Balaam, despite his selfish motives, to bless Israel and even foretell the coming Messiah.
But the story takes a sobering turn when Balaam introduces a strategy that tempts Israel into immorality and idolatry, resulting in devastating consequences. Learn how God’s sovereignty shines through human failure and wickedness, and see how His plans cannot be thwarted.
