Be Aware of Balaamization Ideology 

The greatest wonder in the Balaam episode is not that the donkey spoke, but that God spoke through Balaam, a pagan diviner, to affirm His faithfulness to bless His people, and even gave a future prophecy pointing to Davidic kingship, ultimately fulfilled in the Lord Jesus Christ. 

God is great and faithful to His promises. 

Join us this Sunday, as we continue through the book of Numbers in chapters 22–24. We will learn why not to be like Balaam. And how we can resist falling into his false teaching or follow his example by pursuing anything more than God Himself. Balaam knew God’s word, yet his heart was drawn toward what he could gain from the world. In his pursuit, he also led the people of God to sin. 

Therefore, let us strive to remain faithful to the faithful, covenant-keeping God!
