This sermon explores the story of Balaam and Balak from Numbers 22-25, emphasizing the profound truth that God is determined to bless His people when they walk in covenant relationship with Him. The message contrasts two kings: the fearful, cursing King Balak of Moab versus the Almighty God who is King of Israel. Despite repeated attempts by a pagan prophet to curse Israel, God transforms every curse into blessing, demonstrating His sovereign protection over His people. However, the sermon warns that while external enemies cannot harm those under God's protection, internal compromise—particularly through sexual immorality and idolatry—can remove believers from that divine covering. The message culminates with the prophetic revelation of Jesus as the ultimate King and Star who rises from Jacob, showing how Christ takes our curses and gives us His blessings. The central question posed is whether God truly reigns as King in every area of our lives, or whether we've compromised and made ourselves king instead.
