“Just One More Thing …”

Numbers 22: 19: “And now please, you also stay here tonight, and I will find out what else the Lord will speak to me.” God had already clearly spoken to Balaam, “Do not go with them; you shall not curse the people, for they are blessed.” (v. 12) Was any more “what else” needed? But we have a way of getting around any of God’s instructions we don’t like, by looking for other words more to our liking. However, God is not Lt. Colombo or Adrian Monk—there’s not always “just one more thing.”
