Numbers 24
If it were not for God's grace, our freedom would undo us. Balaam wanted to curse Israel in order to earn a handsome honorarium, but God constrained his tongue. God kept him from cursing and placed blessing in his lips. This may seem like an incredible infringement of privacy and personal liberty to those who are perishing, but it is the essence of grace and mercy. Our hope and joy is that God superintends our freedoms by providing fences in His pasture. It is to His glory and for our good.
