Then take the flask and pour the oil on his head and declare, ‘This is what the LORD says: I anoint you king over Israel.’ Then open the door and run; don’t delay!” 2 Kings 9:3
You have to admit, there are some pretty interesting tidbits in the Bible. This is one of them. Essentially, one man out of the company of prophets was chosen by Elisha to take the news to Jehu. He was given instructions on how to do it, then Elisha said, “open the door and run!” How odd. Hightail it out of there. Get out of Dodge! He did just as he was commanded, although he did embellish the anointing (2 Kings 9:7-10). His running away forced Jehu to tell his fellow commanders what the prophet had told him. The prophet gave the message, then ran just as he was told.
Perhaps there’s a situation or relationship you need to consider running far and fast from. You know you have been hearing the voice of God (and you just know it is the voice of God) tell you to do flee, but you haven’t done it yet. You’re comfortable though you sense the nudge. If it’s sin, flee. If it’s an illicit relationship, flee. Then ask God to fill that void, that emptiness. Ask Him every day if you need.
Run to Him.
