Numbers 22:1-33
I see men running everywhere! Running rigorously some were climbing high mountains, as though they are in competition to get to the top first. With much vigour and speed, some were running down the mountain. Yet others were running in a diagonal form across the stretch of mountains. Everyone running for himself, no one cared for his brother or neighbour. Some running with vision, some on mission, many with ambitions: but the multitude of them are without purpose and plan. Some enter the race to compete, some are driven by jealousy, some as the only option.
There are those who are running to kill, steal or destroy other people. What are you running for? What is driving you? What is the essence of running with such energy, only to end in hell? Not every race leads to success, don't run in vain!
If you are not running with God, running to Him or for Him: neither with vision, plan or purpose; you are wasting away.
Balak was running after Israel, whereas they were running their own race with God.
You need the Lord to locate your path and run the race that is meant for you. Going up the mountain, down or across: is bound to happen sometimes; as there is no race that does not have frictions. It is however not a problem; when God is with you. Anyone chasing you when you are in God's company, endangers their own life. May you run and end the year well in Jesus name. AMEN!!
God bless you!!
