Christian Minister: Faithful: Balaam

Source: Nav

Numbers 22:18, 38 But Balaam replied to the servants of Balak, “If Balak were to give me his house full of silver and gold, I could not do anything small or great to go beyond the command of the LORD my God. / “See, I have come to you,” Balaam replied, “but can I say just anything? I must speak only the word that God puts in my mouth.”
Numbers 23:8, 12 How can I curse what God has not cursed? How can I denounce what the LORD has not denounced? / But Balaam replied, “Should I not speak exactly what the LORD puts in my mouth?”
Numbers 24:12–14 Balaam answered Balak, “Did I not already tell the messengers you sent me / that even if Balak were to give me his house full of silver and gold, I could not do anything of my own accord, good or bad, to go beyond the command of the LORD? I will speak whatever the LORD says. / Now I am going back to my people, but come, let me warn you what this people will do to your people in the days to come.”
