Numbers Chapter 22 Summary

Balaam's visit to Balak and the strange warning on the way.

The Moabites were scared of Israel because of the victories the Lord had given them (cf. vv. 1-4). How do unbelievers treat believers who trust in the Lord today? Do you find that people respect your faith in God? Why or why not?
According to verses 5-6, what was Balak's plan to deal with Israel? What kind of people today try to curse Christians spiritually?
Who did Balaam turn to for answers (cf. v. 8)? Do you believe the Lord answers the prayers of those who oppose His people? Why or why not?
What does the Lord tell Balaam in verse 12? Why do you believe the Lord told him this? What could happen to a person who curses the people that God has blessed?
When Balak received the notice of rejection from Balaam, how did he respond in verse 15? What is it that he doesn't understand about the Lord?
What is honorable about Balaam's response to Balak in verse 18? What does it say about a person who values obedience to the Lord more than wealth?
Who do you believe God was incensed with in verse 22? Why?
What did the donkey see that Balaam could not see in verse 23? What does this say about Balaam's spiritual condition?
How was it that the donkey began to speak in verse 28? What does this say about God's abilities?
When Balaam finally saw the angel of the Lord and heard from him, it caused him to admit his sin (cf. v. 34). Why is confession of sin a common response to being in the presence of God?

Balaam, v. 5.
