IN THE WRONG PLACE!
Numbers 31:8b – Devotional
Numbers 31:8b
” . . . they also killed Balaam son of Beor with the sword.“
We sometimes hear the expression; “He (or she) was in the wrong place at the wrong time.” It implies that the person was doing something that was not what they should have been doing. I think most of us have been there one time or another.
In case your mind has forgotten about this man, Balaam, he was a Midianite whom the enemies of Israel had paid to curse them. God prevented him to curse, but instead he blessed them.
After blessing Israel several times, he supposedly returned to his own country. Beep! Sadly he remained and encouraged the Midianites who had hired him to seduce the people of Israel sexually. Seduction has a long history doesn’t it!
It is vital for the people of God to remain close to God by earnestly seeking Him by prayer and the study of His Word. Remember the words of that old hymn; “Trust and obey, for there’s no other way to be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey!” Make sure you are in God’s right place!
May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
