Genesis 22.1-19 Now it came about 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, whom you love, Isaac, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I will tell you.” 3 So Abraham got up early in the morning and saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him and his son Isaac; and he split wood for the burnt offering, and set out and went to the place of which God had told him. 4 On the third day Abraham raised his eyes and saw the place from a distance. 5 Then Abraham said to his young men, “Stay here with the donkey, and I and the boy will go over there; and we will worship and return to you.” 6 And Abraham took the wood for the burnt offering and laid it on his son Isaac, and he took in his hand the fire and the knife. So the two of them walked on together. 7 Isaac spoke to his father Abraham and said, “My father!” And he said, “Here I am, my son.” And he said, “Look, the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for the burnt offering?” 8 Abraham said, “God will provide for Himself the lamb for the burnt offering, my son.” So the two of them walked on together. 9 Then they came to the place of which God had told him; and Abraham built the altar there and arranged the wood, and bound his son Isaac and laid him on the altar, on top of the wood. 10 And Abraham reached out with his hand and took the knife to slaughter his son. 11 But the angel of the Lord called to him from heaven and said, “Abraham, Abraham!” And he said, “Here I am.” 12 He said, “Do not reach out your hand against the boy, and do not do anything to him; for now I know that you fear God, since you have not withheld your son, your only son, from Me.” 13 Then Abraham raised his eyes and looked, and behold, behind him was a ram caught in the thicket by its horns; and Abraham went and took the ram and offered it up as a burnt offering in the place of his son. 14 And Abraham named that place The Lord Will Provide, as it is said to this day, “On the mountain of the Lord it will be provided.” 15 Then the angel of the Lord called to Abraham a second time from heaven, 16 and said, “By Myself I have sworn, declares the Lord, because you have done this thing and have not withheld your son, your only son, 17 indeed I will greatly bless you, and I will greatly multiply your seed as the stars of the heavens and as the sand, which is on the seashore; and your seed shall possess the gate of their enemies. 18 And in your seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice.” 19 So Abraham returned to his young men, and they got up and went together to Beersheba; and Abraham lived in Beersheba.

Text: Genesis 22:1-24 An Ultimate Test of Faith (Gen. 22:1-2) God tested Abraham's faith by commanding him to offer up his son Isaac as a sacrifice. God tests us to prove the genuineness of our faith and produce steadfastness (James 1:2-4). An Undaunted Act of Obedience (Gen. 22:3-10) Abraham responds to God in faith, acting in obedience to God's command. Abraham believed that God would provide a lamb for the sacrifice and take care of his son. (Heb. 11:17-19) An Unfailing Provision of Grace (Gen. 22:11-14) Abraham proved that his faith in God was genuine. God stays Abraham's hand and provides the sacrifice that was required. Jesus, the true and better Isaac, is the sacrificial lamb of God who would be slain for our redemption. An Unwavering Promise of Blessing (Gen. 22:15-24) God rewards Abraham for his obedience and reassures Abraham of His promise to bless him and his offspring.
The Lord Will Provide
God tested Abraham's faith by asking if he would sacrifice his only son, but God provided a replacement for him. Over and over God has provided for His people, all leading up to His provision of His only Son Jesus on the cross for all of our sins.

And Abraham built an altar there and placed the wood in order; and he bound Isaac his son and laid him on the altar, upon the wood. 10 And Abraham stretched out his hand and took the knife to slay his son.11 But the Angel of the Lord called to him from heaven and said, “Abraham, Abraham!”So he said, “Here I am.”12 And He said, “Do not lay your hand on the lad, or do anything to him; for now I know that you fear God, since you have not withheld your son, your only son, from Me.”13 Then Abraham lifted his eyes and looked, and there behind him was a ram caught in a thicket by its horns. So Abraham went and took the ram, and offered it up for a burnt offering instead of his son. 14 And Abraham called the name of the place, The-Lord-Will-Provide; as it is said to this day, “In the Mount of the Lord it shall be provided.”

This is message 7 in The Names of God Series Genesis 22:1-24 Jehovah-Jireh is the God who provides perfectly and on time, revealing that His provision always meets the need and fulfills His purpose. He tests faith. not to destroy it but to deepen trust, showing that obedience and surrender open the way for His supply. The God who called Abraham to lay his son on the altar is the same God who provided the substitute, pointing to the greater sacrifice of Christ.

In this message, we look at one of the earliest and greatest tests that God ever brought on someone. After waiting years for God to answer his prayers for a son, God finally provides - and then instantly asks Abraham to render the child back to Him. Listen as we wrestle with this test and seek out the purpose in our own.
Join us as we dig deeper into last Sunday's sermon from Pastor Randy Duncan “Why Are You Anxious?” and hear from Amy Duncan on why she chose “The Lord Will Provide" for worship on Sunday. Digging Deeper Questions: What does Paul mean when he says to "take every thought captive to Christ"? What are the effects of allowing thoughts to run wild? How does worry play out like functional atheism in our lives? Why do you think Jesus ended His discussion on worry with these words, “Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble”? How is it meant to bring you comfort?

The post The Lord Will Provide – Genesis 22:1-19 appeared first on Bear Creek Church.
In our lives as Christians, we often overlook God's purpose for trials, testing, difficulties, among other challenges He may bring our way. One of the greatest challenges in all of Scripture is found in Genesis 22 when Abraham was tested by God to give His son, Isaac, in sacrifice. It's clear Abraham never lost his trust even in the midst of pain of potential loss. And after God's provision of a ram for the sacrifice, Abraham looked back and labeled what took place as victory of God's deliverance. This Monday Starter devotional comes from a sermon by a famous minister in his time, Alexander MacLaren. MacLaren noted some worthwhile actions and reflections we can take in our own lives to help us view our own trials, temptations, etc. in a different and more positive way.

The name "Jehovah Jireh" translates into "The Lord Will Provide." This name is found in the story of Abraham and Isaac in Genesis 22, where God provides a ram as a substitute sacrifice, demonstrating His provision in a moment of ultimate need and obedience. God's provision is often linked to our trust and obedience, and while God may not always provide how or when we expect, He is always faithful to meet our needs according to His divine plan. Believers are encouraged to trust God as their provider in all circumstances, knowing that He sees and supplies beyond what we can anticipate.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Tuesday morning, the 15th of July, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We go to the first book of the Bible, Genesis 22:14: “And Abraham called the name of the place, The-Lord-Will-Provide; as it is said to this day, “In the Mount of the Lord it shall be provided.” In my footnotes I have got the definition of “the Lord will provide” in Hebrew. It is “Yahweh”. Yahweh - another name for the Lord. The Lord will provide!I want to tell you a little story. I was up in Central Africa some time ago. I was in a very isolated area and we had two blow-outs over a period of about a week. We didn't have any spare wheels in the vehicle, and the Lord provided. You see, I want to say to you that when Abraham was going to offer up Isaac as a living sacrifice, he was about to cut his son's throat with a knife, when the Angel of the Lord said, ”No, don't do that. Have a look in the thicket, there is a ram caught by it's horns”. The Lord provided a way out. The Lord provided a ram to compensate for the death of Isaac, his son, and the Lord was so overwhelmed by the faith and the obedience of Abraham that He said to him more than twice that He will make a covenant with him, and He will be his God and they will be His people, which stands to this very day.Getting back to my story - they contacted the head quarters in the capital city, and they said, “There are no tyres of that size anywhere in the country”, but the Lord provided. A man in South Africa sourced those tyres. He put them on a truck and sent them to Central Africa. They were put on a bus and brought right into the interior of Central Africa and dropped off in a small little village. Then we met up with those two brand spanking new tyres and men that work on the side of the road repairing tyres, took the two punctured tyres off and put on two brand-new tyres. The Lord provides, and by the way, we got home safely, in Jesus' name.I want to say to you today, how many times is the Lord providing for you and you do not even acknowledge it or realise it? Open your spiritual eyes and remember the Lord always provides for His children. Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day,Goodbye.
In this message, Jeannie Burgess explores the meaning of Jehovah Jireh—“The Lord Will Provide”—highlighting God's faithful nature as our provider. Through powerful biblical and personal examples, she illustrates how God not only meets our needs but also fulfills our wants and desires through faith and trust in Jehovah Jireh.

Genesis 22:14 'And Abraham called the name of the place, The- Lord -Will-Provide; as it is said to this day, “In the Mount of the Lord it shall be provided.”'
Today we are reminded that God sees you and provides for you. He is El Roi, the God who sees, and Jehovah Jireh, the God who provides. These names of God are beautifully illustrated in the tale of two step-brothers. Both sons of Abraham, but dramatically different stories. Whether you feel forgotten like Hagar or tested like Abraham, God knows your story. He sees your pain, your questions, your hopes, and He will meet you right there. He sees you, and He will see to your provisions.

In “Dark Sayings,” I explore how internalized racism destroyed my mother's family. This psychological process, woven out of Hellenistic pluralism and anti-Scriptural platitudes about the so-called “Melting Pot,” reveals how systemic racism operates not only externally but within the immigrant's self-conception.Internalized racism is more insidious than the inferiority complex from which it stems. Eventually, the immigrant—the stranger in a foreign land—overcomes fear by adopting the personality of the oppressor.“You shouldn't give your children Arabic names, Marc.”“Stop listening to Arabic music, Marc.”“You need to assimilate into this culture, Marc.”“If you love the Middle East so much, Marc, why don't you live there?”The last one is my favorite. It reveals the speaker's true heart. They might as well say, “Go back to Africa, Marc.”My father is from Africa. Is Africa a punishment?Internalized racism explains why people from the West Bank see themselves as superior to people from Gaza. It's why Arab Christians often identify with white Western Christians against their Muslim brothers. It's why immigrants and minorities across backgrounds look up to those who marginalize them.This concept of “Stockholm Syndrome” reflects a fundamental truth about the human condition. The privileged and underprivileged who perpetuate internalized racism share something profoundly disturbing in common: both reject the God of Abraham, trusting not in him as King, but in themselves.Ironically, Pharaoh (or Caesar) is not their king, as they profess in John's Gospel, but merely their locum tenens — their temporary substitute. They view themselves as the true sovereigns. This explains their enthusiasm for elections; they delight in proclaiming their chosen figurehead by acclamation: creatus imperator.They “create” (creāre) him. They “make” him. They “elect” him. They “bring him into being” and then they control him—but they can't control the God who speaks out of the whirlwind.Providence, habibi, is rougher than a corncob. She'll slap you sideways even if you're careful.Though “internalized racism” isn't a Scriptural term, it's rooted in biblical notions of cowardice; in the absolute fear of the power of death and deep anxiety about what might happen if Jesus alienates the “wrong people” in Decapolis. God forbid he offend those “nice white people.” Very bad for business.Consider the disciples.What a bunch of cowardly, misguided fools. One almost wonders why Jesus didn't let his Father finish what he began with the storm at sea.Oops! I am starting to sound like Jonah. See, there are no good guys!This week, I discuss Luke 8:25.Show Notesβουλή (boulē) / מ-כ-ר (meem-kaf-resh) / م-ك-ر (mīm-kāf-rāʾ)Purposeful plan, will, counsel. يَمْكُرُ (yamkurū) to plan, scheme, plot. מכר (makar) to sell. For example, Joseph being sold by his brothers (מָכְרוּ māḵərū Genesis 37:28).“But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected God's plan (τὴν βουλὴν τοῦ θεοῦ tēn boulēn tou theou) for themselves, not having been baptized by John.” (Luke 7:30)“For thus says the Lord: ‘You have sold yourselves (נִמְכַּרְתֶּם nimkartem) for nothing, and you shall be redeemed without money.'” (Isaiah 52:3)“Woe to the rebellious children,” declares the Lord, “Who execute a plan, but not mine, and make an alliance, but not of my Spirit, in order to add sin to sin.” (Isaiah 30:1)“And [remember] when those who did not believe made plans (يَمْكُرُ yamkuru) against you to restrain you, or kill you, or expel you. And they make plans (ۚ وَيَمْكُرُونَ wa yamkuruna), but God makes plans (وَيَمْكُرُ wa yamkuru) — and God is the best of planners (الْمَاكِرِينَ al-makirin).” (Surah Al-Anfal 8:30)πίστις (pistis) / אֱמֶת (ʾemet), from the root א-מ-ן (aleph-mem-nun), אָמֵן (ʾāmēn), and أمين (amīn)The root א-מ-ן (aleph-mem-nun) is functional with إيمان (īmān, “faith”) and آمن (āmana, “he trusted”), reflecting the biblical Hebrew concepts of trust, faithfulness, and reliability.Under the influence of Hellenism (Judaeo-Christianism), אֱמֶת (ʾemet) is misinterpreted by neoplatonists as “truth,” as if it were a philosophical abstraction. Here, the wisdom of George Carlin comes to mind:“I leave symbols to the symbol-minded.”The God of Abraham is not a “symbol,” let alone a pagan effigy—he is our trustworthy Master. Saying “amin” does not indicate agreement with an idea; it reflects placement of trust in the trustworthy Master.φοβέω (phobeō) / י-ר-א (yod-resh-aleph) / و-ر-ي (wāw–rāʼ–yāʼ)Fear, fearful, or feared. وَأَرَى (waʾara) — “to frighten someone.”“Abraham stretched out his hand and took the knife to slay his son. But the angel of the Lord called to him from heaven and said, “Abraham, Abraham!” And he said, “Here I am.” He said, “Do not stretch out your hand against the lad, and do nothing to him; for now I know that you fear God ( יְרֵ֤א אֱלֹהִים֙ yerēʾʹ ʾělō·hîmʹ ), since you have not withheld your son, your only son, from me.” Then Abraham raised his eyes and looked, and behold, behind him a ram caught in the thicket by his horns; and Abraham went and took the ram and offered him up for a burnt offering in the place of his son. Abraham called the name of that place The Lord Will Provide, as it is said to this day, “In the mount of the Lord it will be provided.”” (Genesis 22:10–14)In the Qur'an, وَأَرَى (waʾara) is linked to divine signs intended to cause fear. Concerning the Lukan reference, Abraham is shown (أَرَى arā) a terrifying thing:“And when he reached the age of striving with him, [Abraham] said: ‘O my son, indeed I see (أَرَى arā) in a dream that I am sacrificing you.” (Qur'an 37:102)In Genesis 22, Abraham also sees (וַיַּרְא wayyárʾ) the ram caught in the thicket, and “fears God” (ירא אלהים yirē ʾelohim) through his obedience.θαυμάζω (thaumazō) / ת-מ-ה (taw-meem-he)The disciples encountered God on Mount Zion, were filled with terror, panicked, and fled:“They saw it, then they were amazed (תָּמָ֑הוּ tā·māʹ·hû); They were terrified, they fled in alarm.” (Psalm 48:5)In Ecclesiastes, after a reminder to “fear God,” a warning: don't be shocked by institutional oppression. Corruption and injustice are standard and forever entrenched — officials monitor one another, but the system will always fail. “Reform” is a word found only on the lips of the self-righteous:“Guard your steps as you go to the house of God and draw near to hear rather than to offer the sacrifice of fools; for they do not know they are doing evil….For in many dreams and in many words there is emptiness. Rather, fea...
