1 00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:04,000 Speaker 1: Let us pray. God is not a man that he 2 00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:07,680 Speaker 1: should lie, neither the son of man that he should revent. 3 00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:12,400 Speaker 1: Hath he said, and shall he not do it? Or 4 00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:15,360 Speaker 1: hath he spoken, and shall he not make it? Good? 5 00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:22,000 Speaker 1: Numbers twenty three nineteen to day. I praise you, Lord, 6 00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:26,239 Speaker 1: because your undeniable hand of blessing and favor can be 7 00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:31,240 Speaker 1: seen on my life and all I touch, Like the 8 00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:34,599 Speaker 1: prophecy of Balam. I thank you that when others want 9 00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:38,519 Speaker 1: to speak ill over my life, you Lord will bless 10 00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:44,640 Speaker 1: me abundantly instead. I decree and declare that because you've 11 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:48,800 Speaker 1: spoken blessing over my life, no man can reverse it. 12 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:53,199 Speaker 1: I decree and declare that you've delivered me from my 13 00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 1: enemies and have broken the chains of mediocrity off my life. 14 00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:02,280 Speaker 1: I am a chosen vessel. I am one of a kind, 15 00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 1: and my life will not be lived in vain. Thank 16 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:11,520 Speaker 1: you Jesus that your reign and glory is passed on 17 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:15,600 Speaker 1: to me. Because I put you first and walk in 18 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 1: your ways, I am blessed and highly favored in Jesus' name. Amen, 19 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:29,679 Speaker 1: thank you for praying with me today. Continue listening for 20 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 1: an incredible Bible story brought to you by Bible in 21 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 1: a Year dot. 22 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 2: Com Balem's prophecy. In our last story, we learned how Ballack, 23 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:50,840 Speaker 2: king of Moab, was threatened by the vast number of Israelites. 24 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 2: Out of fear, Bullack sent for Balam to curse Israel. 25 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 2: Bulack offered a great reward to Balem if he cursed Israel, 26 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:03,360 Speaker 2: but God would not allow it. As Balem was on 27 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 2: the road to meet Bollack, God caused Balem's donkey to speak. 28 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:12,400 Speaker 2: The absurdity awakened Balem to what he was doing. In 29 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 2: this story, we learn about how Baalam is still unable 30 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 2: to curse the Israelites and gives a word about one 31 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 2: coming from out of Israel, as inspired by the Book 32 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:23,639 Speaker 2: of Numbers. 33 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 3: Hello, I'm pastor Jack Graham with today's episode of the 34 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 3: Bible in a Year. In our last episode, we learned 35 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:34,640 Speaker 3: how Bailik, king of Moab, sought out a pagan souths 36 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,960 Speaker 3: theyer named Balem, and offered treasures if he would curse 37 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 3: the growing Israelite people. Bilak was afraid of the Hebrews, who, 38 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 3: though untrained and not hostile, could easily overthrow his kingdom 39 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:48,920 Speaker 3: if they decided to do it. We learned how Balem 40 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,360 Speaker 3: responded negatively at first, but then he tried to seek 41 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 3: out Bailak in opposition to God's commandment. We then heard 42 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:59,359 Speaker 3: the bizarre, strange tale of Balem's donkey who spoke to 43 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 3: Bayleem before for the Angel of the Lord appeared and 44 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 3: warned Balem not to oppose God. He sent Balem along 45 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 3: to meet Bailak with instructions to say only what God 46 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 3: told him to say. Today, we'll hear what Balem says 47 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 3: to Beilak, So let's listen to today's reading. 48 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 2: Bullack simmered in his fear of Israel. He faced the 49 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 2: palace grounds anticipating Balem's return so that he might curse Israel. 50 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 2: When word came to Bullack that Balem had finally arrived, 51 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 2: Bullack rushed to the outskirts of Moab and met Balim. 52 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 2: What delayed you, Bullack said, I have offered you great 53 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 2: riches to curse the Israelite people. Do you not trust me? 54 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 2: I am here now, Balam replied. Balem was resolved to 55 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 2: only speak the words of God, for he had come 56 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 2: to understand his own selfish ambition. You should know that 57 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 2: I do not have any power to curse or bless 58 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 2: that belongs to God. I will only say what God allows, 59 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 2: Balem said, with resolve in his voice. The next day, 60 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 2: Ballack took Balim to a cliff overlooking the Israelite camp. 61 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 2: The two looked at the camp in awe, for the 62 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 2: Israelites were like a sea of people. Balim could not 63 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:21,720 Speaker 2: help but understand Ballack's fear. Yet, as he looked upon 64 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 2: the people of Israel, he could sense the hand of 65 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 2: God on them. An indescribable blessedness surrounded them, as if 66 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:32,680 Speaker 2: the presence of God was not near the people, but 67 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:37,279 Speaker 2: was among people. Balam turned towards Bullack and his men 68 00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 2: and said, God requires us to build seven altars to him. 69 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 2: There we will make sacrifices, and the Lord will speak 70 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 2: his will. Balack had his men gather all that was 71 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:53,119 Speaker 2: needed there on the cliff, they burned sacrifices to God 72 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 2: and worshiped him. Smoke arose from the cliff, and the 73 00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 2: people watched as Balam retreated back to be with God 74 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 2: God in silence. There, God spoke to him in prophetic poetry. 75 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:09,680 Speaker 2: Never before had Balem received such beautiful and clear thoughts 76 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 2: from God. The experience almost led him to tears, Balem 77 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 2: arose back towards Bullack and the people surrounding him. Balem 78 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 2: spoke with booming and eloquent voice for all to hear. 79 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 2: As the river runs smoothly over stones, so did Balem's 80 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 2: words flow from his tongue. Balem prophesied before everyone, saying, 81 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 2: from the distance, Bullack brought me to the eastern mountains, 82 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 2: surrounded by the beauty of this land, I have been 83 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 2: asked to curse Jacob and denounce Israel. How can I 84 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:49,479 Speaker 2: curse whom God has blessed? How can I denounce those 85 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 2: whom God has never forsaken? For from the mountaintops I 86 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 2: see him, and below the rolling hills I witness him moving. 87 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 2: Behold the people dwelling below do not consider themselves a nation, 88 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 2: Yet they outnumber the dust, and they are blessed. Let 89 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 2: me die a death like Jacob's, bless it with children 90 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 2: who create a nation. Bullack listened to Balam in total dismay. 91 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 2: Enraged by his words, Bullack asked, what are you doing. 92 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:27,039 Speaker 2: You are supposed to curse Israel, yet now you bless 93 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:32,559 Speaker 2: them before my people. Balem replied calmly, saying, I told 94 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,160 Speaker 2: you that I would only speak the words of God. 95 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 2: Ballack refused to accept defeat. He brought Balem to another 96 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 2: summit near the hills to gaze upon Israel. Perhaps you 97 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 2: would reconsider if you truly understood how great of a 98 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:51,919 Speaker 2: threat they were, Ballack said, as he showed Balam another 99 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 2: part of Israel's camp. As it turned out, their numbers 100 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 2: were even greater than Balem had originally thought. Their camp 101 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 2: stretched around the cliffs miles into another valley. In the 102 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 2: new view. On top of the cliffs, Balam built seven 103 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 2: more altars. The people watched Balam in silence. Fear had 104 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 2: made them desperate, so they looked at Balam with anxious anticipation. 105 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 2: Balam listened closely, his eyes closed and brow furrowed. God 106 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 2: spoke to Balam again in poetry. His words soothed the 107 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 2: heart of Balam. Balem opened his eyes and turned towards 108 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 2: Balac and the people, saying, arise, Baalac, hear the words 109 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 2: being sung from the voice of God. The Lord is 110 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 2: not a man that his fickle mind should sway all 111 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 2: he has spoken. He shall be fulfilled. I have received 112 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 2: a command to bless for God has blessed them and 113 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 2: shall not revoke it. He has not brought forth suffering 114 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 2: to Jacob, nor will he send trouble to Israel. The 115 00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 2: Lord God is among them, and his mighty voices, shouting 116 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 2: like the wind in waves. A voice of a king 117 00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 2: commands them. He brings them out of Egypt, and is 118 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 2: for them like the horns of a wild ox. No 119 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 2: magic or enchantment could ever oppress the nation of Israel. 120 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 2: Behold the mighty people as a lioness. It rises, and 121 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 2: it shall not lie down until it has devoured its 122 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 2: prey and drunk the blood of the slain. The people 123 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 2: shuddered in fear at the sound of Balam's voice. Balac, however, 124 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 2: became annoyed. You shame me by coming here and blessing them. 125 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 2: Not cursing them is one thing, But could you not 126 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 2: even do us the courtesy of not blessing them. Black's 127 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:47,559 Speaker 2: anger rose, and he once more brought Balem to another 128 00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:51,440 Speaker 2: vantage point to view Israel. They moved the altars a 129 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:56,840 Speaker 2: third time and offered sacrifices to God. Balem spoke again, saying, 130 00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 2: the oracle of him whose eyes were open, and here's 131 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:05,679 Speaker 2: the word of God. I see the vision of the Almighty. 132 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:09,839 Speaker 2: How lovely are your dwelling places. O Israel, you are 133 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:13,600 Speaker 2: like palm groves that stretch across the shores and gardens 134 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:17,560 Speaker 2: beside a river. You are like aloes that God has planted. 135 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 2: Water shall flow from you, and seeds shall be within 136 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:25,959 Speaker 2: the waters. Your kingdom shall be exalted. God has brought 137 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 2: you out of slavery and defends you with the strength 138 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:32,319 Speaker 2: of a wild ox. You shall eat up the nations 139 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 2: and your adversaries. You shall break their bones in pieces 140 00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:40,320 Speaker 2: and pierce them with mighty arrows. Blessed are those who 141 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 2: bless you and curse it are those that curse you. 142 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:49,000 Speaker 2: Balac could take no more of Balem's prophecies. I have 143 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:51,560 Speaker 2: called you here to curse my enemies, and you stand 144 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:56,199 Speaker 2: here and bless them again, Balack said. Black's fear, anger 145 00:09:56,240 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 2: and hatred boiled over. He sent Balem away and began 146 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 2: and to retreat. Balem began to leave, but before doing so, 147 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:07,960 Speaker 2: he had another word for Balak and his people. Only 148 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 2: this time Balem spoke of a prophecy that transcended time. 149 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:16,839 Speaker 2: His words heralded an ancient promise once made to Abraham. 150 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:20,440 Speaker 2: It was a prophecy hoped for, and a prophecy that 151 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 2: would unfold before all humanity passed, present and future. Balem 152 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 2: spoke powerfully, saying, I see him, but not now he 153 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:35,360 Speaker 2: is not near. A star shall come out from Jacob, 154 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 2: A scepter shall rise out of Israel. All the cities 155 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:44,439 Speaker 2: shall bow before him. After speaking these words, Balm left 156 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,840 Speaker 2: riding his donkey. Balam departed from the frightened land of Moab. 157 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 2: A new found heart for God's people overcame him, as 158 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 2: well as an anticipation of what would unfold out of Israel. 159 00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 2: Who was this star? How would he make all the 160 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:04,440 Speaker 2: nations crumble before him? What was God going to do? 161 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,800 Speaker 3: We begin today's story with an anxious king Bailak, awaiting 162 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:14,079 Speaker 3: the arrival of Balem. He's offered many treasures to Balem 163 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 3: and is sure when Balem arrives, he will curse Israel 164 00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 3: and calm Baylak's fears. But the king's hopes are dashed 165 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 3: as Balem tells him he will not curse Israel. Blessing 166 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 3: and cursing are God's to give, not his. And furthermore, 167 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 3: he must speak to Bailak only what God tells him 168 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:35,440 Speaker 3: to say. Clearly, his encounter with God on the road 169 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 3: to Moab changed Balem. Beailak has a plan. Maybe if 170 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 3: he shows Balem how big the Israelite contingent is, he'll 171 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 3: understand the threat and yield to the king's request. So 172 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 3: they go up to a high mountain to see a 173 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:55,200 Speaker 3: portion of the Israelites. The crowd was very large, but 174 00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:59,960 Speaker 3: Balem was resolved to only obey God. He tells Bailiak 175 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 3: to bill seven altars and offer sacrifices to the One 176 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 3: True God, who will then speak his will. Bailak does 177 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 3: his Balim requests, and the offerings rise up from the cliffs. 178 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 3: God comes to Balim and tells him what to say. 179 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 3: Balim will not curse the descendants of Jacob, those whom 180 00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 3: God has blessed. His words are beautiful testimony in fact, 181 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 3: to God's enduring faithfulness to Israel. Bailac is very angry 182 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 3: and disappointed. Rather than curse these people Balim has blessed them, 183 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 3: but he doesn't give up. He shows Balem even more 184 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 3: Hebrews and their numbers are staggering, but Balem listens to 185 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 3: God just as he promised he would. They move the 186 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 3: altars and other sacrifices, and God again speaks through Balem 187 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:47,920 Speaker 3: of all that God has done for Israel. He has 188 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 3: blessed them and dwelt among them. God will not allow 189 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 3: his people to be cursed. Bailak is more than irritated. 190 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 3: This isn't the outcome he expected. He desperately asked Balem 191 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:04,200 Speaker 3: to either curse nor bless them again. Balem is faithful. 192 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 3: He must do as God tells him. A third time. 193 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 3: Baylik shows him more of the Israelites, and God delivers 194 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 3: a message through Balim. His words, far from spelling doom 195 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:19,559 Speaker 3: for Israel, tell of a growing nation blessed and protected 196 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:25,880 Speaker 3: by the hand of Almighty God. Baylak's irritation turns to rage. 197 00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:30,200 Speaker 3: He sends Balim away and SLINKs back into defeat. Before 198 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:33,960 Speaker 3: he leaves, though, Balem delivers one more message, one that 199 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 3: echoed the promise that God made to Abraham long ago, 200 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,840 Speaker 3: one that speaks hope, not only for Israel, but for 201 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 3: all the world. Here's that message. I see him, but 202 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 3: not now. I behold him, but not near. A star 203 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:52,200 Speaker 3: shall come forth out of Jacob. A scepter shall rise 204 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:57,080 Speaker 3: from Israel. Today's reading reminds us that God can use 205 00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:01,480 Speaker 3: anyone who turns their ears to him and obey. Balem 206 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:04,080 Speaker 3: was not an Israelite. He was not one of God's 207 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:07,520 Speaker 3: chosen people, but God worked in a powerful way through 208 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:11,440 Speaker 3: this man to bless Israel. When Baylem encountered God in 209 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:14,440 Speaker 3: his life, he was forever changed, and through him, God 210 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:17,360 Speaker 3: delivered a message of great hope that would resonate throughout 211 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 3: the generations and endto the world, a promise of a 212 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 3: scepter a savior who would yet come.
