Ezekiel 28:11-19, Isaiah 14
INTRODUCTION: You may not know this, but your Pastor is practically blind without the help of contacts. If not for my contacts I couldn't identify the people on the first row. I remember sitting on the second row of the Church where I grew up - about 15 feet in front of me a Church covenant hung on the wall. I never could read it! I couldn't read the board at school, I couldn't read billboards... but the thing about growing up with poor vision is that you don't know it!

- Numbers 22:31 tells us that the Lord opened the eyes of Balaam, and he saw the angel of the Lord standing in the way with his drawn sword in his hand.?
