A CONFLICT OF KINGDOMS FIGHT NOT WITH SWORDS, BUT WITH WORDS, ALTERS, AND INFLUENCE When kings fear, prophets are tested - and nations hang in the balance. In Balaam, Balak, and Israel, John Ouma Odede unpacks one of the most revealing and misunderstood stories in Scripture - a conflict of kingdoms fought not with swords, but with words, altars, and influence. Through the lives of Balak, the fearful king; Balaam, the gifted yet divided prophet; and Israel, the covenant people under unseen protection, this book exposes the spiritual dynamics of manipulation, compromise, and blessing that still shape our world today. From ancient mountains to modern boardrooms, the spirit of Balaam still seeks to corrupt the prophetic voice through greed, seduction, and mixture. Yet God is raising Daniels, not Balaams - men and women who stand pure, fearless, and faithful in the face of pressure. You will discover: How spiritual altars influence nations and leadership. The danger of prophetic compromise and the loss of integrity. The mystery of God's covering when you don't even know you're under attack. Why God's blessing cannot be reversed - even in the face of curses. How to walk in purity, covenant protection, and divine favor in an age of mixture. This is more than a study - it is a prophetic call to faithfulness. To every voice, leader, and believer standing between two worlds: choose obedience over opportunity, and blessing over bribery. Because the God who turned Balaam's curse into a blessing is still doing it today. When kings fear, prophets are tested - and nations hang in the balance.
