How do we know that God uses even the actions of false prophets for His purposes?

The actions of Balaam in the Old Testament provide a stark example of how God uses even the misguided intentions of false prophets to achieve His purposes. Despite Balaam’s attempts to curse Israel, God transformed his plans to result in blessings instead. This teaches us that nothing occurs outside of God's sovereign will, and even those who oppose Him inadvertently serve His grand design. Understanding this reinforces the truth that God’s will cannot be thwarted, and all actions ultimately contribute to His redemptive story.
