The Promises of God:

"The LORD his God is with him, and the shout of a king is among them" (Numbers 23:21).

This comment was made by Balaam to Balak when Balak had hired Balaam to curse the Israelites. Balaam could not do it - although he made sacrifices and tried to curse them all that came out of his mouth was blessing - and in one of those utterances God comments about Israel the above verse, saying that HE was with them and that the "shout of a king" is among them! Now if you read the story preceding these chapters - that is probably not what our assessment would be - our assessment might run more like this: they are a rebellious lot and never cease grumbling and complaining! God saw something beyond the surface stuff! God sure sees things differently than we do! HALLELUJAH! How is it in our homes? Is the "shout of the King" in our mouths? May it be so!
