Studying the Bible

What Are Your Intentions?

Can you be doing the right thing and it still be wrong? In this episode we talk about a man who did exactly what God told him to do, but God stood against him because he was doing it for the wrong reasons. He was trying to compromise with God. It was all for his own gain. God cares about our intentions otherwise He would have made us robots. He gave us hearts for a reason.

Balaam was a diviner paid to curse the Israelites. But God turned the curse into a blessing because what God has blessed, no man can curse.

What is a diviner? Why are Christians not supposed to participate in divination. A donkey has a conversation with her owner? Why did Balaam have no reaction to that? How can we have wrong intentions even when our actions are right? Do you seek God's will? Do you seek to please Him above yourself and others? What will pleasing Him cost you? Is it worth it?
