T#058 Knowing, Experiencing, Analyzing & Learning From THE TOTALITY OF GOD’s WILL --- THE ONLY WAY To Live Confidently Consistent ---THEOCRACY in our INDIVIDUAL LIVES!


>>Numbers Chapter 22


>>verse 12 – 

          I-1 >DECRETIVE WILL: “Do not go with them”

          I-2 >DECRETIVE WILL: “you shall not curse the people”


[In life’s
situationswe ought to
really say like Balaam said
in >>verse 18 and
>>24:12-13 >  

    •  "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."
    • And also we are to heed >>Leviticus 10:1-2 and >>Proverbs 30:5-6.


    Yet, we are always attracted
    to offers and representations
    like that recorded
    in >>verses 16-17 

    • and give hope to the ones who offer
    • (instead of being outright decisive to obey immediately God's decretive will)
    • as Balaam wrongly uttered in >>verse 19!]


    >>verse 20II-1 >PERMISSIVE WILL: “If the men have come  to call you, RISE UP AND GO WITH THEM (na lang!)”


    [Yes, GOD respects
    our free will 

    • and does not act a dictator to us!
    • Yet, HE is not reduced to being inutile
    • when we go and contradict HIM via our free will
    • and that HE gets angry at us (>>verse 22)

    but HIS
    PERMISSIVE WILL
    accommodates us

    • in such situation only to find out

    this is always automatically
    accompanied with
    HIS DIRECTIVE WILL!



                    III-1 >DIRECTIVE WILL: “BUT ONLY THE WORD WHICH I SHALL SPEAK TO YOU SHALL YOU DO.”


    Yes, with exacting
    obedience 

    • HE wants of us in every situation 
    • HE issues out a DIRECTIVE WILL
    • to reiterate what HE had earlier decreed!
    • But when HE sees us pursue
    • ignoring even that DIRECTIVE WILL of HIS

    then HIS
    OVERULING WILL
    takes over us!!!!


    >>verse 23IV-1 >OVERULING WILL:
    • “When the donkey saw
    • the angel of THE LORD
    • standing on the way with his drawn sword in his hand
    • the donkey turned off from the way and went into the field”

    >>verse 25IV-2 >OVERULING WILL:
    • “When the donkey saw
    • the angel of THE LORD
    • she pressed herself to the wall
    • and pressed Balaam’s foot against the wall.”

    >>verse 27 –  IV-3 >OVERULING WILL:
    • “When the donkey saw
    • the angel of THE LORD
    • she lay down under Balaam”


    >>verse 32 clearly
    summarized as HIS
    exercise of

    HIS OVERULING WILL
    the 3 above
    mentioned happenings



    HE caused to happen
    through the donkey
    & HIS angel

    in perfect combination
    for HIM!

     
    >>verse 35   II-2 >PERMISSIVE WILL: “Go with the men…(na lang!

                             III-2 >DIRECTIVE WILL: “ BUT you speak only the word which I tell you.”



    WE HAVE TO
    BE MOST
    CAREFUL AS WE
    ARE TO DEAL WITH
    THE CHRIST
    more
    responsibly
    NOW(!)

    KNOWING &
    UNDERSTANDING
    as we do NOW(!),

     THE
    COMPONENTS &
    TOTALITY
     of HIS WILL!!!
