MOVE OR BE REMOVED
Genesis 12

The possibility of living to the fulfillment of destiny or answering to His divine call is directly rooted in an voluntary or involuntary move from one place to another place, or giving up a conscious or unconscious habit that is not in line with where God has planned you to be. Father Abraham demonstrated this when he had to move before he could answer to God’s plan and purpose for his life. Genesis 11:1, “Now the LORD had said to Abram: “Get out of your country, from your family and from your father’s house, to a land that I will show you.”” Abraham did not hesitate but he responded by moving. Some times the call to move can be a direct or indirect one, but when God is setting you up for a move to the center of your assignment, that He has ordained, it will be clear to you to the point of distinction. Abraham was called to make a move that had no meaning, but had many promises from the Lord. Genesis 12:4, “So Abraham departed as the LORD had spoken to him…” Abraham did not contest with God’s command, neither was there any excuse not to answer. Are you questioning your call to move or be removed? He knows your thoughts, as regard to answering, but there is no choice for you not to answer. Your liking or disliking of the calling will not take away or add to you, but move you in the direction of His calling. God will not call without backing you up; He that calls you will back you up. In answering His call there is no need for comparing how He called to move your neighbor with how He is calling to move you. The plan of God moving Abraham was different from that of Moses, the call of Moses was different from the call to move Lot, and this goes on in all that were moved by His calling throughout the pages of the Bible. In the case of Moses, there was a need for a miracle appearance; he was called while he was leading the flock to the back of the desert, a secluded area, a place of no distractions from attention. Exodus 3:2-3, “And the Angel of the LORD appeared to him in a flame of fire from the midst of a bush. So he looked, and behold, the bush was burning with fire, but the bush was not consumed. 3 Then Moses said, “I will now turn aside and see this great sight, why the bush does not burn.” Moses took a turn from his own side of direction before he could answer to God’s side of direction. Do you know if He is calling to move or remove you? One thing is sure, for those He is calling, He will wait for your answer and not excuse. Man can run from answering, but cannot hide. He will catch up with you. Ask God for the grace of enablement.
