Let's open our Bibles to Genesis 22:1-19

Many times we may come to church not out of righteous obedience, but as an obligation to receive a blessing.

I. Abraham is called and obeys (vs. 1-9)

Abraham's obedience is marked by immediacy

Abraham knows what to do because he had done it hundreds of times previously

Abraham expects God to be faithful to His Word (Genesis 12, 15)

Abraham's faithfulness was an example for his son Isaac

II. Abraham was, and will be, provided by God. (vs. 10-19)

God provides a ram

The Lord WILL Provide

Obedience begins today
