Narrow Place

Numbers 22:22-26
Holman Christian Standard Bible

22 But God was incensed that Balaam was going, and the Angel of the LORD took His stand on the path to oppose him. Balaam was riding his donkey, and his two servants were with him. 23 When the donkey saw the Angel of the LORD standing on the path with a drawn sword in His hand, she turned off the path and went into the field. So Balaam hit her to return her to the path. 24 Then the Angel of the LORD stood in a narrow passage between the vineyards, with a stone wall on either side. 25 The donkey saw the Angel of the LORD and pressed herself against the wall, squeezing Balaam's foot against it. So he hit her once again. 26 The Angel of the LORD went ahead and stood in a narrow place where there was no room to turn to the right or the left.



You are in a narrow place. There is no time for you to get off track. The path to Jesus is a narrow one. There is an angel assigned to keep you on track. That Angel will do whatever it takes to keep you on your path. You live in a time when senseless murders are taking place. Bridges are collapsing as people attempt to make it home. Hurricanes are destroying the land. Same sex marriages have become legal. People are still dying from AIDS. Now is not the time to lose focus.

You are in a place that you think may not suit you. You may be saying, "this is too hard" or " I need some room to breathe". Stay on track. The Word of God says that the righteous will scarcely make it. All that is let is time to live for Jesus. The Broadway is always appealing to the flesh. The narrow place is good for the spirit. Pull someone onto the narrow way today.

God Bless
