NOWHERE TO RUN...

Nowhere to Run Nowhere to Hide


1 Kings 19:11-13

And He said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the Lord and behold, the Lord passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the Lord: But Lord was not in the wind: and after the wind and earthquake: But the Lord was not in the earthquake And after the earthquake a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice and it was so, when Elijah  heard it that he wrapped his face in his mantle, and went out, and stood in the entering in of the cave and behold, there came a voice unto him, and said, What doest thou  here, Elijah? 

We have seen through the testimony of Jonah and through the testimony of the prophet Elijah that you cannot run  from the voice of  God. You cannot hide from the Spirit of Truth. There is nowhere to run and there is nowhere to hide from his Spirit. You cannot run from your calling. No matter how terrible the situation or matter may seem. You must obey the voice of  the Lord one way or another the truth will find you out. No matter what we see in this earth, we are still called to do a work. He who began a good work in you shall perform it until the last day of Jesus Christ. The earth will continue to go its way, and continue to get more wicked, but regardless there is still a mission to fulfill for the time audited. Elijah was a prophet of the Lord chosen for a work in a time when the head of the Lord’s people were corrupt. There were wars, famine, and the majority of the people were backslidden in sin. They did not want to walk in the truth and had commanded that the prophets of the most High be slain. Though it seemed in that natural sense that there wasn’t much work being done in the name of the Lord, spiritually the Spirit of the Lords was with his people. The Lord God is the same yesterday, today, and evermore. Regardless of your present situation. You must face the truth and walk in the truth. The Lord is with those that believe. He will never leave thee nor forsake thee that you can boldly say he is your keeper and a present help in the time of trouble. We, who are the children of God expose the lies of the enemy and maintain accountability within the house of God. We are faithful stewards of the truth with our words as well as our deeds. The word tells us that in Christ there is the light and in him there is no darkness at all. The prophet Elijah ran into a cave. The Spirit of God did not lead him there. While in this cave full of darkness and fear the Lord asked him, “ Why are you here?” There is no fear in the truth. Perfect love casts out all fear. The Lord commanded him to come out of that dark place and stand on the mount. It was there the Lord was able to show him to come out of that dark place and stand on the mount. It was there he was able to show him the power of God. He brought forth wind, earthquake, and the fire to build the confidence of his servant. We are lights that cannot be hid and we must go forth in that truth. Hear the truth. Love the truth. Obey the truth. Hide the truth in your heart that you may not sin against him. The truth is what sets captives free.

1 John 4:6
We are of God: He that knoweth God heareth us; He that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the Spirit of Truth, and the Spirit of Error.

This scripture is so relevant, especially in these last and evil days. When the Lord Jesus is purifying your through day to day warfare you will find that your spiritual being just wants true fellowship. You desire people who don’t care about all the formalities. You want what’s real. You want true believers in your circle with real encouragement who you can trust to get a prayer through. Some people as much as you want them to they just don’t get it. They  won’t understand. No matter how much you speak the truth. No matter how many times. The world will not receive you. The world will not receive the truth, it falls on deaf ears. It doesn’t make sense. They are tares amongst the wheat. You will know the difference. So, be not weary in well doing. You shall reap if you faint not.
