You are a star,you shall shine..i prophesy nobody will be able to curse you...you are unstopable in your endevour as long as you mentain a covenant relationship with God And Balak’s anger was kindled against Balaam, and he smote his hands together: and Balak said unto Balaam, I called thee to curse mine enemies, and, behold, thou hast altogether blessed them these three times. . . . And now, behold, I go unto my people: come therefore, and I will advertise thee what this people shall do to thy people in the latter days. And he took up his parable, and said, Balaam the son of Beor hath said, and the man whose eyes are open hath said: He hath said, which heard the words of God, and knew the knowledge of the most High, which saw the vision of the Almighty, falling into a trance, but having his eyes open: I shall see him, but not now: I shall behold him, but not nigh: there shall come a Star out of Jacob, and a Sceptre shall rise out of Israel, and shall smite the corners of Moab, and destroy all the children of Sheth. . . (Num. 24:10-25). Balak, king of Moab, had summoned the prophet Balaam to curse the Israelites who were massed on his border. Balaam was a true prophet, but he was not a true man. That is, he had a genuine prophetic gift, but he was a corrupt and sinful man. He could not speak prophetically against the spirit within him (Num. 24: 12-13). At the same time, he was not above giving a little shrewd and godless counsel to the Midianites (Num. 31:16), urging them to seduce the Israelites into the cult of Baal-peor. In the New Testament, his name is associated with greed and avarice (2 Pet. 2:15; Jude 11), along with participation in licentious paganism (Rev. 2:14). When the Israelites invaded the land, he was justly killed (Num. 31:8). So Balaam was a Gentile prophet, and we have no reason to suppose that his prophecy here could not have been preserved outside the scriptural record, and known to the magi from the East. What do they say when they arrive before Herod? They state they saw a star in the east, and they came to worship the one who was born king of the Jews (Matt. 2:2). Now Balaam’s prophecy is very clear in its association of this star from Jacob with a coming messianic kingship. The star signifies a scepter. The magi were Gentile magicians or astrologers, and they came to worship the king of Jews. i prophesy a time has come for you to be looked for,to be sought after,this is our time ,this is our season in Jesus mighty name ameen
