Numbers 23:17

"The LORD met Balaam, and put a word in his mouth, and said, “Return to Balak, and say this.”"

Key Reflection

The LORD's instruction to Balaam through a direct word in his mouth was a significant moment, reflecting divine authority and control over the prophet's words. In the original context, this would have underscored that whatever Balaam spoke would be divinely inspired and not his own initiative, emphasizing the sovereignty of God even when dealing with those who initially resisted His plans.
