Jesus once said, to love him is to listen and keep his word.

Where or to who do you turn to when faced with challenges, vulnerability, need or crisis?

Abraham listened and kept God's voice—Yahweh's charge, his commandments, his statutes and his Torah or laws. Will Isaac navigate through the example set by his father? 

Will he listen to God's voice and keep what it commands? 

Perhaps his adversary—the Satan, the Philistines, will succeed in frustrating his efforts to possess the land God had promised to his father, himself and his seed?

Will he obey?
