Bad word

No body in the world likes donkeys.🐴 No one likes to be called donkey.🐴 It’s a worst thing to refer someone as donkey.🐴😰😱

Irrational donkey 🐴

Donkeys are considered as the most irrational animals as they can bray any moment. The donkey is an outdated mode of transportation.🏇

How can donkey be wiser?

Can donkey become wiser than the owner. No way! This is practically impossible. However there is an exception to this rule.

Balaam and donkey

In the Holy Bible there is a wonderful event mentioned in the life of Balaam who had the gift of prophecy.

Read Numbers chapter 22. The Bible believing Christians are well versed with this historical incident.

Unnoticed Angel

Balaam was enticed to curse Israel nation. Balaam went ahead but Lord sent his angel to finish Balaam. Balaam couldn’t notice this angel however donkey noticed and tried to save Balaam.

Talking Donkey

In the bargain, Balaam landed up beating his donkey three times. God opened the mouth his donkey. This is the first instance when a donkey spoke in human vocabulary.

Eyes opened

The Lord ultimately opened the eyes of Balaam to see the angel who was waiting to destroy him.

Wiser donkey

In this instance the donkey turned out to be more wiser than the owner as the donkey tried to save the life of her own owner.

Moral of the story

This kind of miracle does not occur so often. The moral of the story is don’t underestimate the sense of animals. God said to Balaam that Israel is blessed nation and not to curse it.

God is God of all creation even donkeys.

I hope that you will find this helpful.

Shalom by Bible blogger.🕊️
