Read Through the Bible in a Year 2018 Day 52: God is...

Good morning, everyone!

Today I read Numbers 23-25.

And in today's reading, Balaam goes with Balak to look at the Israelite camp. There, God gives him the words to speak to Balak.

Balak is furious because, rather than cursing the Israelites as he'd wanted, Balaam blesses them. Three times. According to God's instructions.

But Balaam says something that I want to share with you today, as a reminder of who God is.

Numbers 23:19 - "God is not a man, that He should lie, nor a son of man, that He should repent; Has He said, and will He not do it? Or has He spoken, and will He not make good?"

And paraphrasing verse 8 and 20: No man can curse whom God has not cursed. No man can revoke the blessings of God.

I hope you'll join me tomorrow when I read Numbers 26-27!
