Abraham’s Journey of Faith

Genesis 22

Abraham is known as the Father of Our Faith.  When reading Genesis 22 you begin to see why.  It is an amazing example of trusting in God’s promise, no matter the circumstances.  This story is filled with “faith one-liners”, such as in verse 5, when Abraham says to his servants just before sacrificing his only son, Isaac, “We will worship there, and then we will come right back.”  Or in verse 8 when Isaac notices they have fire and wood, but no sacrifice. Abraham replies, “God will provide a lamb.”
