When G-d says "Get Moving"

Genesis 12:1-3
Now YHWH 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 show thee: And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.

Hebrews 11:8
By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.

Abraham didn't even question what he heard and there is no record of him debating or discussing or prolonging the decision. Scripture tells us, he simply moved upon the call of G-d. I would also like to point out the 3rd verse in Genesis with regard to America's involvement in the Middle East. The Middle Easterners are all Abraham's grandsons and according to Genesis 12:3, we really need to keep that in mind in our arbitration political posturing.
