“When Donkeys See What ‘Prophets’ Miss” (Numbers 22:2-35) - Daily Manna - 7/9/25

“When Donkeys See What ‘Prophets’ Miss” (Numbers 22:2-35)


What happens when you know all the right religious words but your heart is still divided? In this powerful message from Numbers 22, discover how Balaam—a famous prophet—ignored God’s clear command and almost destroyed himself chasing recognition and reward. God used a humble donkey to open Balaam’s eyes to the danger ahead.


If you’ve ever tried to negotiate with God or walk the line between obedience and compromise, this story is for you. Learn why partial surrender is still rebellion, how God will block your path out of love, and how to recognize the “donkeys” He sends to protect you from your own stubbornness.


🔥 Don’t miss this challenging call to wholehearted obedience and humility before the Lord.
