    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,997 views

    God never tempts us to sin, but God does test our faith. Here are some methods He may use.

    Genesis 22:1-14 God never tempts us to sin since He wants us to make decisions that please and glorify Him, but God does test our faith and our trust in Him in order to grow in our faith. Since God tests our faith, He may use various methods to help us to grow and become more faithful to ...read more

    Father And Son

    God shared the pathos of His sacrifice of Jesus through having Abraham sacrifice Isaac. Two storytellers are needed: [#1] will tell the story of Abraham and Isaac, and [#2] will tell the story of God the Father and Jesus.

    Introduction [#1] Genesis 22:1-2 This is a story of a Father, Son, and sacrifice. Usually we understand this chapter in terms of testing, faith, obedience, commitment, surrender, substitutionary sacrifice, The Lord Will Provide. It’s all in there. [#2] It also foreshadows another Father, ...read more

    God would take Abraham to the limit of obedience when He asked for Isaac as a sacrifice

    Native hunters in the jungles of Africa have a clever way of trapping monkeys. They slice a coconut in two, hollow it out, and in one half of the shell cut a hole just big enough for a monkey’s hand to pass through. Then they place an orange in the other coconut half before fastening ...read more

    Jehovah Jireh

     | 10,065 views

    To really understand the significance of this name, we need to consider carefully the events leading up to the time when Abraham spoke of God as being "Jehovah jireh."

    JEHOVAH JIREH Genesis 22:1 19 INTRODUCTION. In this passage we have Abraham calling God by the name "Jehovah Jireh." This is one of the compound names that is given to the Lord in the Old Testament. The name actually means "That God will provide." In the American Standard Version, Gen. 22:14: "And ...read more

    I thought God hated child sacrifice? What is God doing asking Abraham to sacrifice his only son?

    OPEN: I read the true story of a woman who told of the time she was teaching the toddler-age Sunday school class. Part of the reason she taught there was that her daughter was in that class. During one lesson on creation she was trying to make the concept as understandable as possible, so she ...read more

    "And Then He Raised The Knife...!"

    Contributed by John Gaston on Nov 14, 2017
     | 11,222 views

    It wasn't enough to travel 3 days, or build the altar, or stack on the wood, or bind his son, or even to place his son on the altar. God waited until the great Patriarch raised the knife! Why wait so long? Why does God take us to the edge?

    "AND THEN HE RAISED THE KNIFE...!" Genesis 22:1-14 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. There are times when even doing what is right seems like it will backfire on you. Old habits are hard to break. 2.

    Last week we looked at verses 1 and 2, and seen the willingness of Abraham to hear God (That is an important part of our relationship to God) Abraham does more than just listen, he does what is asked of him.

    Genesis 22:1-Now it came to pass after these things that God tested Abraham, and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am." 2 Then He said, "Take now your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains ...read more

     | 9,703 views

    When Abraham experienced Jehovah’s provision, he built an altar so that he would remember that day. The Lord’s Table is our Mount Moriah … where we come to remember that Jehovah is our “jireh” … our provider.

    Breathe … That’s right … I’m asking you to take a deep breath right now. Breathe in … hold it … and let it out [exhale]. I want you to do that again … only much s-l-o-w-e-r this time.

    Good Morning! I am really excited that we can be here today, to be completely honest, for a while I did not have my hopes up that we would be able too!

    Abraham: The Offering He Didn't Want To Make Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Jan 29, 2021
     | 5,344 views

    Abraham was told to make a special offering. He didn't want to do it, but he didn't want to disobey the LORD, either. What could he do? What did he do?

    Introduction: Several years have come and gone since Isaac was weaned (Genesis 21) and this encounter. Abraham had made a number of altars and had offered several sacrifices since he had come to Canaan, but this was an offering he didn’t want to make. Even so, he obeyed God and received a reward ...read more

    The story of Abraham's call from God to sacrifice his only son, the son of the promise, can be confusing if we don't see the larger picture of God's love for humans.

    2nd Sunday in Lent 2021 Imagine a young man, maybe eleven or twelve, picking up the Bible and reading this story of Abraham and his only son, Isaac. If he’s read the chapters leading up to this scene, he knows that Abraham and Sarah were promised a son by God, and that after decades of waiting, ...read more

    When God Calls Your Name: Abraham Series

    How would you respond if God called your name not once, but twice? In the Bible, God calls plenty of people often by name, but I’ve only found seven times where God calls out someone’s name twice in a row. In each instance, what follows is a life-changing encounter with the God of creation.

    When God Calls Your Name… Twice: Abraham Scott Bayles, pastor Blooming Grove Christian Church: 7/17/2016 How many of you are familiar with the gameshow The Price is Right?

    A Foreshadowing Sacrifice Series

     | 4,074 views

    Good Friday: God knew ahead of time that He would – and must – sacrifice His one and only Son in order to atone for the sins that separate people from Him. In Genesis chapter 22, we see a glimpse into the future of God’s plan of salvation.

    I’ve entitled our message this morning, “A Foreshadowing Sacrifice,” which indicates that we’re going to be looking at something foretold long before it happened. I wish to begin our message this morning by sharing something out of the book of Acts. In Acts 8:31-35, we find the account of Philip ...read more

    Overcome By Obedience Series

    Contributed by John Dobbs on Sep 17, 2021
     | 2,880 views

    A truly amazing story in the OT is the promise that God made to Abram and Sarai that involved them having a son. Sarai unable to have children. The Promise was unexpected! As time went by, both of them passed the age of childbearing and there was a lot of mystery around God’s promise.

    Overcome By Obedience Genesis 21:1-3; Genesis 22:1-14 Introduction A truly amazing story in the OT is the promise that God made to Abram and Sarai that involved them having a son.

    In addition to being a symbolic parallel with the crucifixion account of Christ; Genesis chapter 22 shares an example of walking in faith and obedience to God, and experiencing the Lord’s provision in our lives as a result.

    I have entitled our message this morning, “Knowing God as Jehovah Jireh,” and I wish to look at our passage of Scripture in a practical way. First off, I want to say that I am well-aware of the symbolism that parallels the crucifixion account of Christ; however, there is more to this passage than ...read more
