MOVING

When God says move, move! Down through the pages of time, God has directed people to move either temporarily or permanent for some cause or no apparent reason. I suspect that we have the same God watching over us today. He listens to and speaks to us through the Holy Spirit that indwells us. Those in past times moved straight way at the commanding of God even at prophets or others speaking words from God in His name. They knew God well as they surly would, if living know, as the promised messiah. We also shall know him and join him in the fullness of time, so we must move when God says move. Jesus Christ our Lord, will look for true believers who move at His words, when he comes again. He has moved from the Garden of Eden into these the last days; always moving selected people toward His promise to them. If you know God, know peace by keeping His commandments, loving Him and loving fellow human kind. Loose thyself from the bonds that hold you steadfast to anything of the world. His commandment to us is to love Him first and most and to love one another as we love ourselves. If you would have eternal life, come unto Him by faith, live by faith and enter in by faith. Unbelief is the devils cup of poison that blocks the light of life from us. Only one sip, sheepishly taken, and the entire cup is swallowed. Have no part of the devil nor those following after him. They all have an opportunity, if they have not committed a sin unto death, to gain eternal life with Christ Jesus.

Revelation 22:17 “And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.”

Revelation 3:20 “Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.

Revelation 20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. Know God, know peace. Amen. 03-18-2020 BLL

Genesis 8:16 And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden.” God expelled him and with a little disagreement, he moved.

Genesis 9:18 “And the sons of Noah, that went forth of the ark, were Shem, and Ham, and Japheth: and Ham is the father of Canaan. Genesis 9:19 “These are the three sons of Noah: and of them was the whole earth overspread.” God said go, move out and replenish the earth. They went.

Genesis 12:1 “Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee:” Abram (Abraham) packed up and without argument moved. A little disobedient in that he took a family member with him other than his own. There would be heart ache associated with that mistake.

Genesis 12:4 “So Abram departed, as the LORD had spoken unto him; and Lot went with him: and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran.

14 And the LORD said unto Abram, after that Lot was separated from him, Lift up now thine eyes, and look from the place where thou art northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward:” “Lot had chosen the highlights and green fields around Sodom. Abraham moved in another direction and camped in the desert.”17 Arise, walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it; for I will give it unto thee.1 And it came to pass after these things, that God did tempt Abraham, and said unto him, Abraham: and he said, Behold, here I am.”Abraham moved.

Genesis 22:2 And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.

3 And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and saddled his ass, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son, and clave the wood for the burnt offering, and rose up, and went unto the place of which God had told him.” A terrible test of god of Abrahams faith. Yet, when God said go he moved.

18 Then Abram removed his tent, and came and dwelt in the plain of Mamre, which is in Hebron, and built there an altar unto the LORD.” Then we read of Jonah.

Jonah 1:1 Now the word of the LORD came unto Jonah the son of Amittai, saying, 2 Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry against it; for their wickedness is come up before me.

Jonah 1:17 Now the LORD had prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah. And Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.

Jonah 1:10 “And the LORD spake unto the fish, and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land. Jonah 1:2 Arise, go unto Nineveh, that great city, and preach unto it the preaching that I bid thee.

3 So Jonah arose, and went unto Nineveh, according to the word of the LORD. Now Nineveh was an exceeding great city of three days' journey.” Jonah moved but in the wrong direction. God put him back on the right path in a way he would not soon forget and as a lesson for us.

Exodus 2:15 “Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to slay Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, and dwelt in the land of Midian: and he sat down by a well.” Though we do not hear God telling him to flee, He must have for later he told him to return when the fullness of time is upon him. 15 And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, The LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you:”

Mat. 4:19 “And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.

20 And they straightway left their nets, and followed him.

Mat. 28:16 Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them. 17 And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted. 18 “And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
