SORCERY OF BALAAM

THE MINISTRY OF BALAAM

Part 1 – Sorcery of Balaam

Lesson – What Inspires Your Service For God?

“Now when Balaam saw that it pleased the Lord to bless Israel, he did not go as at other times, to seek to use sorcery, but he set his face toward the wilderness”. (Numbers 24:1)

Balaam is described in the Bible as a prophet of God but he was not one who was approved by God to operate in the ministry of the prophet.

THE COMPROMISING CHARACTER

Naaman was a gentile, a Syrian army commander who sought healing for his skin disease-leprosy. With the help and knowledge of a little girl he adhered to, he went to Israel to see the prophet Elisha, and thanks be to Our Lord, he received healing instantly after executing the instructions and directions of the man of God. After this did Naaman make this statement which drew my attention to this character many Christians have come to adopt.
