CelestialChallenge Tuesday-Animal kingdom

Blessings, my dear brothers, continue with these powerful themes and today in the heavenly challenge, it is Animal-kingdom, thanks to this man who had this wonderful initiative to launch these challenges of much learning @sirknight.

And today I wanted to talk to you a little about the fundamental and important role that the donkey did, in the old and new times of the testament.

Numbers 22

"But the angel of the Lord stood in a path of vineyards that had a wall on one side and a wall on the other." When the donkey saw the angel of the Lord, he stuck to the wall and pressed Balaam's foot against the wall. The angel of the Lord went further, and stood on a narrow path where there was no way to turn aside to the right or to the left.As the donkey saw the angel of the Lord, he fell down to the ground under Balaam Balaam became angry and lashed the donkey with a stick, and the Lord opened the mouth of the donkey, who said to Balaam, "What have I done to you, that you have beaten me these three times?" Because you have mocked me. Balaam replied to the donkey - if I had a sword in my hand, I would kill you right now! "The donkey said to Balaam," Am I not your donkey? You have ridden over me since you have me until this day? No, "he answered, and the Lord opened the eyes of Balaam, who saw the angel of the Lord in me. He hit the road, sword in hand. Balaam bowed and fell on his face.

The donkey appears in the bible named in two important roles, the first is at number 22 when God used it to speak to Balaan when he saw the angel.

One of the privileges that animal had at that time was to take our Lord and Savior when he was entering the city, he mounted one of them and made his entrance mounted on a donkey.

Jesus enters Jerusalem

Matthew 21

***Jesus and his disciples came to the town of Bethphage and stopped by the Mount of Olives, very close to the city of Jerusalem. 2 When he got there, Jesus said to two of his disciples:

«Go to that town that you see from here. As soon as they enter, they will find a donkey tied, along with a burrito. Unleash them and bring them to me. 3 If someone says something to you, you will respond: "The Lord needs you; they will be returned immediately. "

This happened to fulfill what God had announced through the prophet:

«Tell the people of Jerusalem:
Look, there comes your king!
He is humble,
comes riding on a donkey,
in a burrito.

The two disciples went to the village and did what Jesus had commanded them. 7 They brought the donkey and the donkey, and put their cloaks on them. Jesus got up and went to Jerusalem
