Numbers 22:18 - "And Balaam answered and said unto the servants of Balak, If Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold, I cannot go beyond the word of the Lord my God, to do less or more." Balaam stood firm as Balak's servants offered him great honor and anything he wanted IF he would curse the people. It's a difficult thing to resist when Satan puts temptation close to your heart in reach.  In the next verses, Balaam doesn't follow God's leading.  May we daily pray for wisdom to withstand the temptations set before us. - Phil Dann
