‘Nevertheless the Lord your God would not listen to Balaam, but the Lord your God turned the curse into a blessing for you, because the Lord your God loves you. ‘

Deuteronomy 23:5

I’m learning.

And.

God.

Is.

Teaching me.

That.

He.

Protects me.

From.

The attacks.

I don’t see.

Because.

He.

Loves me!

Look.

The above verse.

Comforts.

And.

Reassures me.

That.

Whatever.

Was meant.

For.

Evil.

Against me.

God can.

Use it.

For.

Good.

‘But as for you, you meant evil against me; but God meant it for good, in order to bring it about as it is this day, to save many people alive. ‘

Genesis 50:20

Just like.

He did.

For.

Israel.

When.

Balak.

The king.

Of.

Moab.

Hired.

Balaam.

To curse.

The Israelites.

‘Then he sent messengers to Balaam the son of Beor at Pethor, which is near the River in the land of the sons of his people, to call him, saying: “Look, a people has come from Egypt. See, they cover the face of the earth, and are settling next to me! Therefore please come at once, curse this people for me, for they are too mighty for me. Perhaps I shall be able to defeat them and drive them out of the land, for I know that he whom you bless is blessed, and he whom you curse is cursed.”’

Numbers 22:5-6

Ultimately.

His plan.

Did not.

Work.

Because.

God.

Intervened.

‘Then Balak’s anger was aroused against Balaam, and he struck his hands together; and Balak said to Balaam, “I called you to curse my enemies, and look, you have bountifully blessed them these three times! Now therefore, flee to your place. I said I would greatly honor you, but in fact, the Lord has kept you back from honor.”’

Numbers 24:10-11

I pray.

That you.

Stay in.

God’s will.

For.

Your life.

And.

Don’t let.

Worry.

Overtake you.

Because.

Your enemies.

Are.

Plotting.

Against you.

Stand firm.

Knowing.

That we.

Serve.

A sovereign.

God.

That.

Won’t let.

Their plans.

Work.

Because.

He loves you!

I love you too!

And.

I pray your day is blessed!

In Jesus name, Amen!
