Numbers 22-24 reveals the battle God must confront to equip his people to raise the next generation of believers who will inherit his promises. To do this, God must fight a battle in two fronts. First, on the microcosms of his relationships with his people, God must equip, organize and confront their sins. On a macrocosm, God must confront the spiritual forces that seek to break havoc and derail his plan. In both fronts, God’s people may rest assure that he will faithfully fight to make sure his will prevails in spite of the oppositions within his people’s hearts and outside in the spiritual realm.

How should God’s people react to the threats of God’s enemy?

When the powers of darkness rise against God’s plans, his people can stand firm, trusting…

The unassailable power of his word: Yahweh’s word cannot be manipulated. He is able to overcome and outmaneuver the forces of evil on their own turf – overcoming evil with good (Numbers 22).
1. War of the words: sorcery and divination vs. divine revelation (22:1-21).
2. The heart behind the words: Curses and blessings (22:22-41).
3. The error of Balaam (Jude 11, 2 Peter 2:14-15).
The unavoidable power of his word: Yahweh’s word will prevail. He is able to decisively proclaim and execute his judgement over his spiritual enemies – blessing that overturns the curse of sin and death (Numbers 23-24).
1. Judgment of the powers and their allies: Four oracles proclaiming God’s ultimate judgment over his enemies (ch. 23-24).
2. Soft spots in the armor: the teachings of Balaam (Numbers 31:16, Revelation 2:14).

Only God can turn opposition into opportunity and curses into blessings. Stand firm trusting in his word.

We live in a culture where the occult and superstition seek to distract people from the life-giving message of God’s word. Your witness is essential to dispel the lies of the enemy. Share God’s word with someone today and watch what only God can do (2 Cor. 10:4-5).
Even though true believers in Jesus are beyond the grasp of the enemy (1 John 5:18), Satan still attacks the church by introducing heresy and tempting us to sin. Watchful and confident reliance on God’s word in the context of church accountability allows us to experience his victory in our daily walk and makes us effective instruments in God’s hands.

Jesus’ Sabbath Invitation to Come | Matthew 11:25-30

August 16, 2026by Dr. Jim Adams

In our fallen ways, we often think rest is what we earn after working hard. In God’s plan, however, rest cannot be earned, but can be given and received. Even though God gave Israel the Sabbath to create a culture of people dependent of his grace, they constantly turned down his invitation in the pride of their hearts. Jesus came to invite us to back to the source of all grace. For he made us and our heart is restless until our it rests in him.

¿Qué diferencia hace? | Éxodo 20:8-11

August 9, 2026by Dr. Miguel Lopez

El sábado es el ritmo sagrado de Dios que recuerda a sus criaturas redimidas su misericordiosa y generosa provisión. Dios quiso crear una cultura completamente distinta a la de las naciones caídas del mundo; una cultura que recibiera de todo corazón su gracia y se entregara a él con total entrega. Su cultura debía ser un ritmo constante de recibir de Dios para ofrecerle sacrificios vivos y voluntarios. Ya no adorarían ídolos vacíos por miedo y carencia, sino que la adoración sería una respuesta a Aquel que los creó y redimió, para bendecirlo, bendiciendo a otros como ellos mismos fueron…

What Difference Does it Make? | Exodus 20:8-11

August 9, 2026by Dr. Miguel Lopez

Sabbath is God’s sacred rhythm reminding his redeemed creatures of his gracious generous provision. God wanted to create a whole culture different from the fallen nations of the world; a culture that would wholeheartedly receive his grace and whole heartedly surrender to him. Theirs was to be a culture where one’s life is a constant rhythm of receiving from God to offer back as willing, living sacrifices. No longer would they worship empty idols out of fear and lack but worship would be a reply to the One who made them and redeemed them to bless him, blessing others as…
