Nothing Can Restrict the Workings of God (Numbers 11:1-30)

God moves in unprecedented ways. The people complained about the lack of meat to eat. Moses thinks about the size of the complaining population and panics. He tells God he cannot alone handle the situation. God tells Moses what He (God) will do. God instructs Moses to find seventy men of the elders and gather them in a specific area. Two of the seventy (Eldad and Medad) are not with the other sixty-eight at the time. God speaks to Moses. Moses then speaks God's Spirit upon the registered seventy men. In spite of Eldad and Medad not being at the specified area that Moses had stationed the others, yet both Eldad and Medad prophesied as the other sixty eight men. God had told moses seventy, so God used the seventy in spite of their absence. Nothing - distance, location, hardship, even death - can restrict God, Jesus Christ and/or the Spirit of God!
