Gen 21-24 talks about Abraham preparing to sacrifice Isaac in obedience to God. Isaac was his son, whom he loved dearly. How could God ask him to sacrifice him? After all, Abraham had left the lands of human sacrifice and come into a relationship with God, who valued life.
What was God doing to Abraham? Why the need for this test? Did Abraham pass? Would we have passed, or would we look for another way out, including delay?
Are you learning the lessons today that will help you handle the tests God has for you tomorrow? Remember, God does not need our help, only our obedience.....
