What does it truly mean to surrender to God? In The Peak of Surrender, we journey with Abraham to Mount Moriah and discover the difference between being saved and being fully surrendered. While many believers have placed their faith in Christ, there are often areas of life still being withheld from Him—our own “Isaac.”Through Abraham's greatest test, we learn that surrender is a process marked by obedience, separation, faith, and sacrifice. God wasn't ultimately after Isaac; He was after Abraham's heart. The same is true for us. At the peak of surrender, God reveals a life-changing truth: He doesn't want what we have nearly as much as He wants all of who we are.This message challenges us to identify whatever stands between us and complete devotion to God and to lay it down before Him. When nothing is withheld, we discover the freedom, purpose, and intimacy with God that only total surrender can bring.

Text: 2 Samuel chapters 1-4 Supplemental Text: The Fourth Thousand Years chapter 4 BYU Lecture 28: David learns of the death of King Saul and his son Jonathan. Rather than rejoicing from the news that his tormentor Saul was dead, he went into fasting and mourning. David writes a sad song lamenting the passing of Saul, the Lord's anointed, and of Jonathan, his dear friend. But even with the death of King Saul, it wouldn't be for nearly 8 years before David was recognized as the anointed King of all twelve tribes of Israel. Once recognized as King, David moves the capital of Israel from Hebron to Mount Moriah, known later as Jerusalem. Now that Israel was united with their new king, Israel begins preparations to arise to her greatness. However, their dreaded enemy, the Philistines, were preparing to destroy this new threat.

The Akedah (or "The Binding") refers to the profound and challenging narrative in Genesis 22 where God commands Abraham to sacrifice his son Isaac on Mount Moriah. Just as Abraham raises the knife, an angel intervenes to stop the sacrifice, and a ram is provided instead. What does it have to do with all understanding of God and His love towards us?

Abraham's faith journey reminds us that following God is rarely about having a complete roadmap—it's about trusting the next step. We're invited into the story of a man who heard God's clear call but received no GPS coordinates, no timeline, no detailed itinerary. Just a promise and an invitation to go. What unfolds is a 25-year odyssey filled with famine, fear, failed attempts at control, and the agonizing wait for a promised son. Yet through it all, we discover a profound truth: God's faithfulness isn't diminished by our failures to trust Him perfectly. The narrative reaches its climax on Mount Moriah, where Abraham's willingness to sacrifice Isaac foreshadows the ultimate sacrifice 2,000 years later on that same mountain range. This isn't just ancient history—it's a mirror reflecting our own struggles with anxiety, our desire for control, and our wrestling with God's timing. The question 'Are we there yet?' echoes through our own faith journeys as we face unexpected detours, delayed promises, and circumstances that make trust feel impossible. But here's the beautiful reality: worry reveals where we lack faith, and trials are designed to mature it. Whatever we're walking through today—whether it's financial uncertainty, relational struggles, unanswered prayers, or doubts about our salvation—we're challenged to ask ourselves: Do we truly trust that God is good, even when we can't see His plan?

Fr. Xavier Sanjivi, C.Ss.R., presents a thoughtful exploration of the patriarch Isaac in this episode of Who's Who in the Bible. The session examines Isaac's life, beginning with his miraculous birth and the intense test of faith Abraham faced when asked to sacrifice him on Mount Moriah.Fr. Xavier explains how Isaac serves as a 'type' of Christ, drawing parallels between the two, such as carrying the wood for sacrifice, obedience to the father, and the concept of vicarious atonement. Additionally, the video covers the narrative of finding a wife for Isaac, highlighting the character of Rebekah and the spiritual lessons of trust and intentionality in prayer. Viewers are invited to reflect on these ancient stories as sources of strength and spiritual growth for modern family life.

After the test on Mount Moriah, Abraham buries Sarah and secures the first piece of the Promised Land. His servant finds Rebekah for Isaac, and through Isaac, Rebekah, Esau, and Jacob, God's covenant continues. Abraham's story becomes a lasting legacy of faith pointing toward the promised Messiah. How does one life of faith continue to shape generations yet to come?

Featuring: Judah Thomas, David LaManna, Lenny Salgado, Johnny V., Mike McHugh, and James Gowell Edited by: Tim NicholsonIn this episode of Thriving in the Word, we continue The Hall of Faith series and we stop at a man who left his home without a destination, waited 25 years for a son, and then was asked to give him back.We walk through Genesis 12, 15, and 22 and trace it into Hebrews 11:8–19, where Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out, not knowing where he was going. He lived in tents. He waited on a promise that looked impossible. And when God finally gave him Isaac, the miracle, the heir, the whole future of the covenant, God asked Abraham to put him on the altar.And Abraham went up the mountain.That's not blind faith. That's tested faith.We talk about what it actually means to follow God when the destination is unknown, when the promise is delayed by decades, when obedience costs you the one thing you love most. Abraham didn't just believe in God. He believed God was capable of raising the dead, because that was the only way this could end well.That leads us into some honest questions: Do we trust God's promises when the timeline makes no sense? Are we willing to follow when we don't have the full picture? And when God asks for the thing we've built our whole life around, will we go up the mountain?Topics include: Hall of Faith, Hebrews 11, Abraham, Genesis 12, Genesis 22, faith and obedience, trusting God's promises, obeying without a destination, faith that waits, Abraham and Isaac, Mount Moriah, covenant faith, what is faith, walking with God, friend of God, radical obedience, delayed promises, trusting God's timing, faith under pressure, endurance, Christian podcast, Bible teaching, Bible study on Abraham, faith-based living, tested faith, believing the impossible, God's faithfulness.More Info: ⁠https://www.thrive.church⁠ Give: ⁠https://www.thrive.church/give/⁠ Need prayer? ⁠prayer@thrive.church⁠ This is a presentation of Thrive.Church. © All Rights Reserved.

This week, Lynn Swart shares a message from Genesis 22:1–18 titled "How's Your Posture?" Drawing from the story of Abraham and Isaac on Mount Moriah, Lynn invites the congregation to examine the inward disposition of their hearts — not just what they believe, but how they are standing before God in this season.Lynn walks through the narrative of Abraham's supreme test with careful attention to its spiritual mechanics. She identifies three interlocking postures that defined Abraham's obedience: reverence for God, confidence in God's faithfulness, and wholehearted surrender — noting that Abraham's response was prompt, complete, and without hesitation. From there, Lynn unpacks the significance of the three-day journey to Moriah, the weight of leaving the servants at the base of the mountain, and Isaac's trust as his father lifted the knife. She draws a striking prophetic thread from Abraham's declaration — "God himself will provide the lamb" — straight to Calvary, and from Jehovah Jireh straight to the present: on the mountain of the Lord, it will be provided. Lynn closes the sermon by calling the church to examine where they may have settled for delayed, partial, or murmuring obedience, and to posture themselves for what God is doing next.The sermon's theological anchor is the inseparability of posture and promise. Lynn makes clear that promise is not inherited casually — it is entered intentionally, through the surrendered posture of a heart that says yes before it understands. As she puts it, every decision determines the direction we walk and the destiny we reach. Abraham descended the mountain not with less than he had carried up, but with more — revelation, provision, and a deeper knowledge of his God.Ultimately, this message is an invitation to examine the posture of your own heart before the Lord. Are you responding to what God is saying with a "Yes, Lord" — or hedging, delaying, or holding something back from the altar? Lynn calls each listener to a holy surrender: not driven by emotion, but by conviction that on the mountain of the Lord, whatever is needed will be found.

After waiting decades, Isaac is born, but joy turns to testing as Abraham sends Hagar and Ishmael away and is then asked to offer Isaac. He obeys and journeys to Mount Moriah, where his faith reaches its peak in one of the Bible's most powerful moments, pointing forward to God's sacrifice. What does ultimate faith look like when God asks for what you love most?

Five beaches became bloody battlefields, and that became the turning point of World War II. It was D-Day, June 6, 1944 when the allied forces invaded those beaches on the coast of France and began to move against and tore Germany. Of course Nazi stronghold after Nazi stronghold fell to those advancing allied troops, but the war still dragged on. Finally, the allies smashed into Berlin; the war still was on. Eventually, it came down to a few blocks around Hitler's bunker, and finally only after Hitler's death, the surrender came. Then the war was over. There had been a lot of victories along the way, but the war wasn't over until the last stronghold surrendered. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "The Last Stronghold." Our word for today from the Word of God comes right out of the life of Abraham. He has walked with God many years at the time this happens. And now in Genesis 22, the ultimate test of his faith. "Some time later, God tested Abraham, He said to him, 'Abraham!' 'Here I am,' he replied. Then God said, 'Take your son, your only son, Isaac, whom you love, and go to the region of Moriah. Sacrifice him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains I will tell you about." Man! Imagine this! This is the son God promised; this makes no sense. And yet, Abraham, with the son he deeply loves, marches up Mount Moriah with the knife in his hand, with the wood for the sacrifice altar. In fact it says, "Early the next morning Abraham got up, saddled his donkey, and took with him his son, Isaac." Now, as I pointed out, when this happens, Abraham has walked with God many years. He's sacrificed his security back in his homeland. He's taken many risks for the Lord. He's fought battles for the Lord. He's believed God over and over again. And now God takes him to the edge of faith and asks him to surrender the dearest treasure he's got - Isaac - the last stronghold. Here is Abraham with his love for God on one hand and his love for something earthly on the other hand, and he must choose. Do you see what he does? He's up early the next morning. I would at least slept till noon. But he's up early the next morning; instant, immediate response, obedience. Look, you've walked awhile with the Lord, and maybe you've fought battles for him and you've sacrificed some security for Him, you've taken some risks, you've believed Him. But now the Lord is coming to you to ask you to surrender your Isaac; to do whatever He chooses to do with it. God supplied a ram in the thicket for Abraham, and it did not cost him his son. But Abraham didn't know that when he made this walk. What's your Isaac? A lifetime ambition, a dream of being married, your career, a position you really want, some material expectations, maybe a child that's become too important to you, your ministry. God is looking for you to take back that contract you've asked Him to sign. At the bottom, you know, you've got the things the way you want them and at the bottom you want it signed GOD. No. He wants a blank piece of paper that you have signed. He'll write on it. Are you going to obey Him? He'll never do you wrong. He died for you. It's a crisis in Lordship. Today He's asking you to lower that flag that says "Mine" on the last stronghold and raise the flag that finally says "His," because if He can have this, He can have anything. Once you release to God what or who you love the most, God will release to you power and peace like you have never known before.

April 25, 2026 - Equipped 2026 - Day 3 - 10:00 AM Session This episode is a sermon-style teaching that walks through Genesis 20–25, using the lives of Abraham and Isaac to reveal the character of the God who is called the friend of Abraham. Rather than focusing only on the biographical details of Abraham, the message unpacks how these chapters help us know God better — his pursuit of people, his faithfulness to promises, and his gracious provision. Topics covered include Abraham's journey to Gerar and the Abimelech episode, God's intervention in dreams, the opening of Sarah's womb and the birth of Isaac, the covenant at Beersheba, Hagar and Ishmael's desert deliverance, the testing on Mount Moriah, Sarah's burial in Machpelah, the servant's mission to find Rebekah, and the blessing of Ishmael and Isaac leading to the Jacob and Esau scene. The episode ties these Old Testament narratives to New Testament fulfillment in Jesus, the Spirit as our guarantee, and the hope of resurrection. Key points emphasized: God is a pursuing God who draws his people back in times of weak faith; God is a fulfilling God who keeps his promises; God is a providing God who brings life in the face of certain death; God is a resurrecting God who inspires trust beyond the grave; God guides and directs his people; and God is the blessing-giver whose gifts we must not trade for immediate gratification. The teaching highlights numerous typological connections to Jesus — the Seed, the Lamb, the Resurrected One — and explains how those themes shape Christian hope and discipleship. Listeners can expect a pastoral, Scripture-saturated exposition (no external guests), practical application for seasons of wavering faith, and a steady invitation to trust the God of Abraham — the friend who pursues, provides, fulfills, leads, and blesses his people now and forever. Duration 37:47

In this message, Pastor Seth Drewry continues the “Abraham: Journey of Faith” series by walking through Genesis 22 and Abraham's test on Mount Moriah. Abraham leads Isaac up the mountain carrying only two things in his hands: the fire and the knife.Pastor Seth shows how this Old Testament moment points to Jesus, the Lamb of God, and reveals a God who does not demand the death of our children, but instead seeks to fully capture our hearts. He explains the cultural background of child sacrifice, why this passage separates the one true God from all false gods, and how the ram in the thicket foreshadows Christ's sacrifice on the cross.From there, Pastor Seth applies the story directly to families and the next generation. Abraham was:Available to hear God's voiceObedient to respond, even when it didn't make sensePrepared to walk out what God had spokenWilling to trust God completely with his son's lifeUsing the image of Abraham carrying the fire and the knife, Pastor Seth calls parents, grandparents, and spiritual leaders to lead the next generation “up the mountain” into an encounter with God. The knife represents the Word of God—sharp, precise, and able to cut through lies, sin, and spiritual strongholds. The fire represents the Holy Spirit—God's presence that purifies, empowers, and ignites a living, active faith.This sermon challenges believers to:Tune their ears to God's voice and be ready to change courseRecognize that not everyone can go where God is calling you—some “donkeys” must be left behindTrust God with their children's ultimate destiny, even as they faithfully steward and disciple themCarry both biblical truth (the knife) and Holy Spirit power (the fire), instead of settling for dry knowledge or unanchored emotionPastor Seth also presses into the New Testament pattern of the baptism in the Holy Spirit from the book of Acts, urging every believer not only to know the Word but to ask God for the fire of the Holy Spirit in their own lives. When the fire and the knife come together—Word and Spirit, truth and power—God transforms lives, strengthens families, and awakens a new generation to follow Jesus.If you're a parent, grandparent, or anyone burdened for the next generation, “The Fire & The Knife” will help you see how to lead young people toward an encounter with God by faithfully carrying His Word and His Spirit every day.Join us next week at Believers Fellowship.

We trace Zion's story from Melchizedek and Mount Moriah through the Psalms and prophets, showing how this victory points forward to its ultimate fulfillment in Jesus Christ—the true King of Zion, the cornerstone of God's dwelling place, and the one who makes His people the heavenly Jerusalem.

How old was Isaac when Abraham took him to Mount Moriah in Genesis 22?In this short episode of The Bible Sojourner, we take a fresh look at one of the most famous passages in the Old Testament and ask a question many readers have never really considered: was Isaac a small child, or was he much older than we often assume? Drawing from the chronological clues in Genesis, I walk through the biblical data and argue that Isaac was likely old enough to understand what was happening, carry the wood for the sacrifice, and willingly submit to his father.That changes the way we read the story. Instead of picturing Abraham overpowering a helpless boy, this episode explores the possibility that Isaac knowingly trusted his father and participated in the event in a far more meaningful way. We also consider how this helps us understand Genesis 22, highlights the character of God, and sheds light on the substitutionary pattern that runs through Scripture.If you have found the podcast helpful, consider ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠leaving a review on Itunes⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠rating it on Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

In Genesis, God asked Abraham to go to Mount Moriah to sacrifice his son, Isaac. Abraham obeyed God and took Isaac up the mountain. On the way, Isaac kept asking his father what they would be sacrificing. When it became clear what was happening, Isaac obeyed his father—even though he was probably very frightened. Are you like Isaac, willing to be a sacrifice for God? In this message, Jill helps us understand God as our Jehovah-Jireh, our provider, so we can learn to be committed to God's plan.

Where Is the Lamb? | Christ For YouJohn 8:56 and Genesis 22 | Good FridayHow could Abraham see Jesus' day two thousand years before Jesus was born? What did Jesus mean when He said, “Abraham rejoiced that he would see My day. He saw it and was glad”? What did Abraham see on Mount Moriah? Why does Isaac carry the wood? Why does he ask, “Where is the lamb?” And if a ram died in his place, why does that question still remain?In this Good Friday sermon, Pastor Rojas follows that question through Scripture until it is finally answered. Was Abraham only being tested, or was he being shown the day of Christ? Was he seeing the beloved son, the wood, the substitute, and the mountain where God would one day provide His own Lamb?Why did no angel stop the sacrifice on Good Friday? Why was there no substitute for Him? Because He was the substitute for you. This sermon shows that Jesus is the Lamb of God, the sacrifice God provided for Himself, the One who took your place, bore your sin, and opened heaven to you. If you have ever wondered what Abraham saw, where the lamb was, or what Good Friday was really about, this sermon is for you.Subscribe & Share:Spotify: Christ For YouPortuguês: Cristo Para VocêWebsite: ZionWG.orgLooking for a Lutheran Church near you?Support the preaching of God's Word.

This sermon explores the account of Abraham's willingness to sacrifice Isaac on Mount Moriah as a profound lesson about faith in impossible circumstances. The message emphasizes that God's call often feels emotionally impossible, requiring us to trust Him when we cannot understand His ways. Through Abraham's example, we learn that faith is contagious, God is never late or short in His provision, and blessing always follows obedience. The sermon draws powerful parallels between Isaac carrying the wood for his own sacrifice and Jesus carrying the cross, both occurring on Mount Moriah. The central theological point is that when we fear God—holding Him in such high regard that obedience becomes the only reasonable response—He meets us at our point of greatest need. The message concludes with a personal testimony about the pastor's father coming to faith in Christ during his final days, demonstrating that God pursues His children and provides even in our most desperate situations.

Abraham's journey to sacrifice Isaac on Mount Moriah reveals the essence of true faith - complete surrender and obedience to God's specific commands. Unlike intellectual faith that merely believes facts, genuine faith demonstrates itself through transformed actions. Abraham didn't see God's provision of the ram until after he showed willingness to obey completely. This pattern appears throughout Scripture: God speaks, faith obeys, and God provides. The story foreshadows God's ultimate provision of Jesus as our substitute, dying the death we deserved. True faith requires putting everything on the altar and stepping out in obedience before seeing God's provision.CLICK ME: Sermon Outline⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠INSTAGRAM⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TIKTOK⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YOUTUBE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠WEBSITE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

In this message from Genesis 22, we step into one of the most challenging moments of Abraham's journey—the test on Mount Moriah. God's tests are not meant to harm us, but to reveal what is truly in our hearts and to strengthen our faith.Abraham's willingness to trust God, even when he didn't understand, points to the power of obedience and the refining work God does in us through difficult moments. When God provided a ram in place of Isaac, it foreshadowed the ultimate provision of Jesus Christ as our substitute.Through seasons of testing, God is shaping perseverance, character, and hope—preparing us for the good works He has planned for us and inviting us to trust Him even when the path seems impossible.

We can trust God to provide us with everything we need, for He has already given what we most need: His Son.

MAR. 6, 2026Live for a cause greater than yourself."'Give me this mountain of which the Lord spoke'...And Joshua blessed him, and gave Hebron to Caleb." Jos 14:12-13 NKJVWhen Moses sent Caleb to spy out the Promised Land, Caleb saw something that troubled him: the town of Hebron. Abraham buried his wife there. He was buried there.So were Isaac and Jacob. Hebron was a sacred site. Now it was inhabited by their enemies, and it bothered Caleb. It was more than he could take, so he asked Moses for Hebron. He didn't ask for Jerusalem, perched on Mount Moriah; or the Valley of Eschol, where qgrapes grew as large as plums; or Jericho, where the Jordan River flowed. He wanted Hebron, whose soil had known the visitation of angels and whose earth entombed the holiest family. "Joshua blessed him, and gave Hebron to Caleb." Caleb wanted to do something great for God. He lived with a higher call. Perhaps the reason your problems feel so great is that your call is too small. Max Lucado tells of a doctor friend who makes regular medical trips to a remote jungle clinic to treat the disadvantaged. He's a retired surgeon with ample income. He could spend every day of his life in ease and luxury. But he focuses on supporting the health clinic for his own good: "I need a cause that is greater than cable TV and Cadillacs," he said.

J.I. Packer once wrote, “What matters in life is not what you make of it, but what God makes of it for you.” That contrast becomes especially clear when it comes to money. When circumstances shift, and uncertainty rises, the quiet question surfaces: Will there be enough? Our culture tells us peace comes through self-provision—earning more, saving more, planning better. But Scripture invites us into a different posture: resting in a Father who provides. Look at the Birds: Provision Begins with Relationship In Matthew 6:26, Jesus directs our attention upward: “Look at the birds of the air…your heavenly Father feeds them.” Birds don't build financial models or stockpile reserves. Yet God sustains them. Jesus' point isn't irresponsibility—it's relationship. Behind every plan, paycheck, and effort stands a God who sees, knows, and provides. Throughout Scripture, this truth repeats like a steady drumbeat: Abraham climbs Mount Moriah in obedience, and God provides a ram (Genesis 22:13–14). The widow of Zarephath runs out of resources, and God sustains her jar of flour and jug of oil (1 Kings 17:14–16). Peter wonders how to pay the temple tax, and Jesus provides the exact coin in a fish's mouth (Matthew 17:27). From Genesis to Revelation, God's provision is precise, purposeful, and personal. Every Need, Not Every Wish Paul echoes this promise in Philippians 4:19: “My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.” Notice what Paul doesn't say. He doesn't promise every want, preference, or wish list. He promises to meet every need. And that supply doesn't flow from our economy, our income, or our investments—it flows from God's riches. Provision is not sourced in us. It's sourced in Him. Jesus Is Our Provision The truth goes even deeper. Jesus doesn't just provide—He is our provision. In John 6:35, He says, “I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me shall not hunger.” Peace, then, is not found in financial comfort or problem-free living. It's found in the presence of Christ. When we forget this, we drift into two familiar traps: Fear: What if there isn't enough? Self-reliance: I'll make sure there's enough. Both pull us away from trust. The Source Behind Everything We Have Scripture reminds us that God provides not only resources but the ability to obtain them. Moses tells Israel, “Remember the Lord your God, for it is he who gives you power to get wealth” (Deuteronomy 8:18). Our skills, opportunities, work ethic, and even our capacity to earn—all come from Him. When that truth settles in, something shifts. Financial security stops being something we manufacture and becomes something we receive. Trusting God as provider doesn't lead to inactivity. It frees us to work, plan, save, and give with joy. Our efforts become acts of stewardship rather than self-provision. Money becomes a place of spiritual formation rather than fear. That's why Jesus teaches us to pray for “daily bread” (Matthew 6:11). Not because God lacks resources—but because our hearts need daily dependence. Daily bread cultivates daily trust. Where Are You Looking for Provision? Take a moment to ask: Am I looking to my paycheck for security? My savings? My plans for the future? Or the hand of a Father who feeds the birds and calls me His child? Whether you're in a season of abundance or a season of need, Jesus doesn't just promise provision—He gives Himself. And He invites you to trust Him day by day. When we trade fear for faith, striving for surrender, and self-reliance for dependence, we discover the deep joy of resting in a Father who sees and provides.

On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions: I'm 65 and plan to work for another 5 to 6 years. I have $65,000 in a Roth IRA that hasn't been invested. I've heard suggestions ranging from corporate bonds and CDs to an ETF. How should I think about investing this money? I'm 60, with a $700,000 pension lump sum, and am considering a buffered-income variable annuity for a few years before taking withdrawals. Is that a wise move? My husband and I are pastors with small 401(k)s. We're curious about crypto—can we move funds directly from a 401(k) to invest in it, and is that advisable? When financing a car, is it better for a married couple to put the loan in one spouse's name or both—and does that change later in life?

Abraham faced the ultimate test when God asked him to sacrifice his beloved son Isaac on Mount Moriah. This passage reveals how God tests us not to make us bitter, but to make us better—refining our faith like precious metal in a furnace. The danger lies when God's gifts become our gods, when we cling too tightly to blessings instead of the Giver. Abraham's response demonstrates mature faith through immediate obedience, practical action, and worship even in crisis. He understood the difference between his responsibility (obedience) and God's responsibility (the outcome). This test on Mount Moriah foreshadowed the ultimate sacrifice when God would provide His own Son as the lamb for our redemption.⁠CLICK ME: Sermon Outline⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠INSTAGRAM⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TIKTOK⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YOUTUBE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠WEBSITE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Why does Isaac nearly disappear from the biblical narrative after Mount Moriah… only to reappear when his bride arrives?In this episode, we explore Genesis 24 and the powerful “Hidden Son” theme through a careful, Scripture-centered lens. Abraham sends a servant to secure a bride for Isaac, and the chapter unfolds with covenant purpose and remarkable detail.This program presents traditional evangelical Christian biblical teaching for educational and faith-based study purposes. We examine covenant patterns, typology, and historical interpretation within a thoughtful and respectful framework.Genesis 24 reminds us that God's promises unfold intentionally through history. The Son may be unseen for a season, but the mission continues.Full video version and additional family-friendly programming are available at:

"Is any thing too hard for the Lord?" This is the question that defines the lives of Abraham and Sarah. From a biological impossibility to a heartbreaking command on a mountain top, their journey proves that God can bring life out of "deadness"—if we are willing to trust Him with everything. Summary: In this episode, we study Genesis 18–23, following the "Father of the Faithful" and the "Mother of Nations" through their ultimate trials. We explore the transition from the joy of Isaac's birth to the gut-wrenching climb up Mount Moriah. The Promise to Sarah: We look at the visit of the three messengers and the shift from Sarah's "laugh of doubt" to her "laugh of joy." We discuss how she received strength to conceive because she "judged him faithful who had promised". The Sacrifice of Isaac: We dive deep into the "Abrahamic Test." Why would a God who abhors human sacrifice command this? We explore the parallels between Abraham offering Isaac and Heavenly Father offering His Only Begotten Son. Life from Death: Using Paul's words in Romans and Hebrews, we analyze how Abraham was able to obey because he accounted that "God was able to raise him up, even from the dead". Jehovah-Jireh: We discuss the significance of the "ram in the thicket" and the name "The Lord Will Provide," exploring how God provides the lamb for us when we cannot provide it for ourselves. The Burial of Sarah: We reflect on the end of Sarah's mortal journey and the faith required to buy a piece of the Promised Land as a "possession of a buryingplace." Call-to-Action: Have you ever had to surrender something you loved back to the Lord, trusting that He had a better plan? How did you find the strength to keep walking up your own "Mount Moriah"?

Doubts and hopes are tied together in this story.(16:36) Abraham bargains with the Lord for Sodom and Gomorrah to be saved because he knows the mercy of God.(23:25) The story of Sodom and Gomorrah also portrays God's justice.(24:34) Lot makes efforts to save his family from destruction in Genesis 19.(29:33) Lot pitching his tent toward Sodom cost him his family.(33:41) The troubling narrative of Lot's two daughters and the cave in Genesis 19.30-38.(38:22) Beauty for ashes in Isaiah 61.3. Through tragic experiences, beauty can come to pass. Your origin story is not who you are.(41:48) Genesis 20 is a triplet of the same story.

For thousands of years, empires have fought over it, religions have claimed it, and the world has fixated on it. Why? Because God said, “I will put My name there.” From Abraham on Mount Moriah… to Solomon's Temple… to Jesus teaching and prophesying there… this mountain has always been at the center of God's plan. Now we're seeing dramatic shifts happening on the Temple Mount once again — and it's raising a powerful question tied to the declaration of Deuteronomy 6:4: “Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord.” Is what's happening in Jerusalem right now setting the stage for prophecy to be fulfilled? Let's talk about it.  ⭐️: True Gold Republic: Get The Endtime Show special on precious metals at https://www.endtimegold.com📱: It's never been easier to understand.

Genesis 21-28 // Nathan MillerThis sermon covers the critical transition in the patriarchal narrative from Genesis 21 through 28. We witness the birth of Isaac, the fulfillment of God's long-standing promise, and the difficult testing of Abraham's faith on Mount Moriah. As the story shifts to the next generation, we see the search for Rebekah, the birth of the twins Jacob and Esau, and the dramatic conflict over the birthright and the blessing. This study emphasizes that God's plan continues through imperfect families and that His sovereign choice remains the driving force behind the history of redemption.SERMON NOTES (YouVersion): https://bible.com/events/PRAYER REQUESTS: https://ccefc.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/2542/responses/new26.02.08

2 Chronicles chapter 3 describes the actual construction of Solomon's temple on Mount Moriah. Every detail from the layout to the gold overlay and the great cherubim reflects reverence, beauty, and intentional design for God's dwelling place. The chapter shows that God is worthy of excellence and care in worship. What is built for Him should reflect His holiness, glory, and greatness.

Who is the mysterious “Angel of the LORD” who keeps showing up all over the Old Testament—and why does he talk, act, and receive worship as if he is God Himself? In this episode, Joshua Lewis walks through key Old Testament passages to argue that the Angel of the LORD is not a created angel at all, but the pre-incarnate Son of God, Jesus Christ, appearing long before Bethlehem.From Hagar in the wilderness, to Abraham on Mount Moriah, to Moses at the burning bush, to Gideon in the wine press, these Old Testament stories form a consistent pattern: this Angel carries the divine name, makes covenant promises, swears by Himself, declares “I am the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob,” accepts worship and sacrifice, and is recognized as Yahweh—with no correction from Scripture. Josh carefully exegetes key passages like Genesis 16, Genesis 22, Exodus 3, and Judges 6, showing how the biblical authors themselves move seamlessly between “the Angel of the LORD” and “Yahweh,” presenting one divine being in more than one person.Along the way, we explore how this fits within Christian theology, biblical prophecy, and the developing revelation of the Trinity. How can God the Father be “invisible” and yet God is repeatedly seen in the Old Testament? How does the New Testament's teaching that the Son is “the image of the invisible God” resolve this tension? And what does it mean for spiritual warfare, for covenant, and for our reading of the entire Bible if Jesus has been present and active in redemptive history from the very beginning?If you're hungry for a deeper dive into Christian theology, Old Testament theophanies, and the identity of the Angel of the LORD as the pre-incarnate Christ, this episode will help you see Jesus woven all through the story of Israel - speaking, saving, commissioning, judging, forgiving, and revealing the Father long before the incarnation.00:00 – The Mystery of the Angel of the LORD Introduced01:55 – The Angel of the LORD as the Pre-Incarnate Son of God (Thesis)02:14 – Genesis 16: The Angel of the LORD Appears to Hagar06:13 – Genesis 22: The Angel swears by Himself to Abraham09:08 – Exodus 3: The Angel in the Burning Bush12:11 – Judges 6: The Angel Commissions Gideon17:56 – Summary: What the Angel Does Only God Can Do18:47 – The Son as the Image of the Invisible God20:06 – Jesus Has Always Been Present in God's Story Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.

Grab a beer and join us tonight for another installment of Necro Overtime! Tonight we're digging into the case of Jonathan Gerlach, the Pennsylvanian accused of breaking into mausoleums and graves at Mount Moriah Cemetery and stealing human remains. Cops say they caught him coming out of the cemetery with tools and a bag of remains, and that search warrants later led them to more than 100 sets of human remains at his home and in a storage locker, along with signs he was selling bones online.

What happens when God asks for the thing you love most? In this message, we journey with Abraham to Mount Moriah to discover a God who is able to do far more than we can ask or imagine. Join Celebration Church Orlando for a message from Pastor Keith Pittman as we explore the profound truth that God's greatest provision is often revealed only on the other side of our surrender.

When we face uncertainty, when life gets hard, when things happen that we can’t explain, we’ll often ask: Where is God? But every Christian should realize they are never alone. Jesus is with you. Pastor Greg Laurie shares more in this message. Notes: Focus verse - Genesis 22 Matthew 28:20 (NKJV)“Lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age." Psalm 23:4 (NKJV)“Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,I will fear no evil; For You are with me;Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.” Sometimes our feelings need to catch up with our faith. #1 Joseph was in a prison cell. He probably felt all alone and abandoned. He was there, not because he broke a law, but because he kept one—God’s law. God was in the prison cell with Joseph. Genesis 50:20 (NKJV)"You meant it for evil; but God meant it for good—to save many people alive.” #2 Let’s go from a prison to a palace and think of Esther. Queen Vashti, to her credit, refused. She would not be humiliated or objectified, not even by the king. Vashti is a role model for young girls and women today.Don’t ever let some guy reduce you to a mere object. You are a woman made in the image God. If you present yourself cheaply, don’t expect to be valued royally. A man needs to value you for who you are on the inside, not only the outside. The most attractive thing is to be a godly and principled woman. Through the providence of God, Esther became the queen of Persia. God is always at work in the life of the believer, every hour of every day. God is now here! Providence comes from the Latin prōvidentia; “pro” meaning "before" or "ahead of time” and “videntia” meaning “to see.” God is in control. #3 The story of Israel at the Red Sea.They were between a rock and a hard place. Exodus 14:13–14 (NLT) Exodus 14:13–14 (NLT) Colossians 1:16–17 Exodus 14:19 A Christophany is an appearance of Jesus in the Old Testament. John 8:56–58 (NKJV)"Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad." John 8:56–58 (NKJV)Then the Jews said to Him, "You are not yet fifty years old, and have You seen Abraham?" John 8:56–58 (NKJV)Jesus said to them, "Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM!" Luke 24:27 The disciples on the Emmaus Road were literally listening to God incarnate describe His Old Testament appearances. Jesus didn’t begin in Bethlehem; He has always been. The story of redemption started a long time ago in a garden. The Christmas story begins with a tree: the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. Adam and Eve sinned and lost that sweet fellowship with God. Genesis 3:8 (NLT)“When the cool evening breezes were blowing, the man and his wife heard the LORD God walking about in the garden.” We can never escape the presence of God. When you walk with God, it is a source of comfort. 1 John 1:9 (NKJV)“If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us.” James 1:14–15 (NLT)“Temptation comes from our own desires, which entice us and drag us away.These desires give birth to sinful actions. And when sin is allowed to grow,it gives birth to death.” The Bible says, “Christ was slain from the foundation of the world.” Genesis 3:15 Pharaoh tried to exterminate the Jews starting with the Hebrew baby boys. Wicked Haman tried to have the Jews wiped off the face of the earth. King Herod hearing that one was born, “King of the Jews,”tried to kill Jesus, but that too failed. Nothing would stop Messiah from coming.Nothing will stop Christ from coming again either. #4 The story of Abraham and Isaac on Mount Moriah. Read Genesis 22 The two of them went together.Genesis 22:8 That is exactly what happened when Jesus went to the cross for us. This gives a glimpse of Calvary from the Father’s perspective, sacrificing His Son, His only Son. Genesis 22:11 Christ died in our place and absorbed the wrath of God. --- Learn more about Greg Laurie and Harvest Ministries at harvest.org.
