Memory verse:-

"Balaam said, "Build me seven altars here, and prepare seven bulls and seven rams for me.” Balak did as Balaam said, and the two of them offered a bull and a ram on each altar. Then Balaam said to Balak, "Stay here beside your offering while I go aside. Perhaps the Lord will come to meet with me. Whatever he reveals to me I will tell you.” Then he went off to a barren height. God met with him, and Balaam said, "I have prepared seven altars, and on each altar I have offered a bull and a ram.”

The Lord put a word in Balaam’s mouth and said, "Go back to Balak and give him this word.” So he went back to him and found him standing beside his offering, with all the Moabite officials.Then Balaam spoke his message: "Balak brought me from Aram, the king of

Moab

from the eastern mountains. ‘Come,’ he said, ‘curse Jacob for me; come, denounce

Israel

.’ How can I curse those whom God has not cursed? How can I denounce those whom the Lord has not denounced? From the rocky peaks I see them, from the heights I view them. I see a people who live apart and do not consider themselves one of the nations. Who can count the dust of Jacob or number even a fourth of

Israel

? Let me die the death of the righteous, and may my final end be like theirs!” Balak said to Balaam, "What have you done to me? I brought you to curse my enemies, but you have done nothing but bless them!” He answered, "Must I not speak what the Lord puts in my mouth?”

-Number 23:1-12

The beauty of gathering of the nation

Israel

and the blessings of righteousness revealed on them made Balaam desired to die the death of the righteous inherit the final end like theirs. We need to have such a desire the death of the righteous is a blessing and pleasing in the sight of God. Inasmuch as the descendants of righteous never beg for bread we and our descendants will never beg for bread in Jesus’ name.
