「Then God's anger was aroused because he went,
and the Angel of the Lord took His stand
in the way as an adversary against him.
And he was riding on his donkey,
and his two servants were with him.」 Amen.
Balak, the king of Moab, who was terrified of the Israelites, invited a soothsayer named Balaam from far away along the Euphrates River to curse Israel. He tried to follow God's warning, but he was so blinded by the greed of reward that he could not see the messenger of the Lord. When we put something between us and God, it becomes unbelief, and we can lose sight of God.
May we open our hearts before the Lord today....
God bless you. See you next week.
