Balaam

Num 23:7 - 12 Balaam

10 Who can count the dust of Jacob, and the number of the fourth part of Israel? Let me die the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like his!

Balaam's Discovery

(a) Their Protection 23 Surely there is no enchantment against Jacob, neither is there any divination against Israel: (b) Their Promise 24 Behold, the people shall rise up as a great lion, and lift up himself as a young lion: he shall not lie down until he eat of the prey, and drink the blood of the slain.

That is a reference to the church's victory over her enemies

Rev 17:14 These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.

(c) Their Prosperity ch. 24:5-6. How goodly are thy tents, O Jacob, and thy tabernacles, O Israel!

(d) Their Peace 10 Who can count the dust of Jacob, and the number of the fourth part of Israel? Let me die the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like his!

Romans 5 v 1 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: Balaam's Desire Let me die the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like his!

What A :- (a) Revelation - Death Comes

(b) Request - Death Calls

(c) Recognition - Death Conquers

Balaam's Death Joshua 13: 21 And all the cities of the plain, and all the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, which reigned in Heshbon, whom Moses smote with the princes of Midian, Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, which were dukes of Sihon, dwelling in the country. 22 Balaam also the son of Beor, the soothsayer, did the children of Israel slay with the sword among them that were slain by them.
