FAITH CAPSULE: No challenge under heaven can stop the called one.
Genesis 31
Is your move in response to the calling of God?
One answering to the calling of God cannot become a victim of evil assignment.
Answering to the calling of God shall not fail when obedient.
Whenever God calls one for His assignment, no curse can deny one. When God moves the called one, no man can remove such.
When God delivers, no man can deny such.
Did God call you, or did you call yourself?
If God did not call you, you are on yourself.
1 Thessalonians 5:24 states, “He who calls you is faithful, who also will do it.”
Regardless of any situation, when God says go, no challenge under heaven can stop the called one.
After Jacob cheated Esau with his blessing, Isaac sent Jacob away from the threat of Esau. “So Isaac sent Jacob away, and he went to Padan Aram, to Laban the son of Bethuel the Syrian, the brother of Rebekah, the mother of Jacob and Esau.” (Genesis 28:5)
At Laban, Jacob married two of the daughters of Laban.
Despite having two daughters (Rachel and Leah) as his wives and having made all his wealth from working for Laban, Jacob did not inform nor bid farewell to Laban the Syrian at the time of his move.
God called Jacob to move to his family.
God called Jacob.
Genesis 31:3 records, “Then the LORD said to Jacob, “Return to the land of your fathers and to your family, and I will be with you.”
God called the return of Jacob, and the relationship between Jacob and Laban was no longer favorable.
After Jacob had left, Laban went after him with bad intentions because Rachel stole the household idol.
God appeared to Laban in a dream and cautioned him not to go against Jacob.
As a result, when he caught up with Jacob, he stated, “It is in my power to do you harm, but the God of your father spoke to me last night, saying, ‘Be careful that you speak to Jacob neither good nor bad.’”(Genesis 31:29)
Whenever God commands your going or your return, there will be no power under heaven to deny answering the calling of God.
Also, there will be no power capable of hurting one in the journey the Lord has placed in the life of such.
God called Jacob to return, and Laban was not in a position to operate against the command of God.
Laban was powerless because the power of God was in position.
Concerning Jacob, Laban was powerless.
Did God call you out?
Is your move in response to the calling of God?
Do not move by your understanding.
God is not a man that He should falter in His word.
What God says He will do is a done deal.
Prayer for today: Ask God in your going and coming that no agent of the wicked shall prevail against you.
