FAITH CAPSULE: God waits to act for those that run from His calling. 

Exodus 3

One can run from answering the calling of God, but God will only need to wait for the runner.
Are you running from God? 
God does not need to run before catching up with His creation.
The fastest created one that is running away from answering the calling of God will be forever before hands are up to become arrested by God.
The awesome eternal God is in perfect control over all His creation. 
The word testified the extension of His hand that is unavoidable. 
For example, Moses ran away from Egypt to end at the location where he was tracked down with no more track to run on.
At Horeb, the mountain of God, Moses was with the flock when God rounded him up. Exodus 3:2 records, “…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.” 
God waits to act for those that run from His calling. 
God may want to send one to the North Pole but run to the South Pole in an attempt to escape from the calling of God.
Moses gained the attention of the Angel of the Lord when the bush in a fire did not burn. (Exodus 3:3) 
God waited for the runner Moses to put him to arrest for his calling assignment. 
In life, pay attention that God is giving attention to your speed. 
The attention of God draws the answering of Moses. Exodus 3:4 records, “So when the Lord saw that he turned aside to look, God called to him from the midst of the bush and said, “Moses, Moses!” And he said, “Here I am.” 
Just like Moses, Ezekiel did not run from God before the outstretched hand of God reached him and set him up for the assignment of God.
Ezekiel testifies to the hand of God, “The hand of the LORD came upon me and brought me out in the Spirit of the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the valley, and it was full of bones. Then He caused me to pass by them all around, and behold, there were very many in the open valley, and indeed they were very dry.” (Ezekiel 37:1-2) 
The hand of God came upon Ezekiel to get his attention for the intention of God. 
Are you one that is running far from God or too fast for God to put you under His arrest?
Know this day that God will wait or stretch out His hand to draw your attention to His intention. 
Ezekiel needed to receive the touch of God to know that power belongs to God.

Prayer for today: Ask not to run away from the calling of God over your life.
