JEHOVAH-JIREH

GOD WILL PROVIDE


Genesis 22:1

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, whom you


love—Isaac—and go to the
region of Moriah. 

Sacrifice him there as a burnt


offering on a mountain I will
show you.”
Early the next morning Abraham

got up and loaded his donkey.

He took with him two of his


servants and his son Isaac. When
he had cut enough wood for the
burnt offering, he set out for the
place God had told him about. 
On the third day Abraham

looked up and saw the


place in the distance.
He said to his servants,

“Stay here with the donkey


while I and the boy go over
there.

We will worship and then


we will come back to you.”
Abraham took the wood for

the burnt offering and


placed it on his son
Isaac, and he himself carried
the fire and the knife. As the
two of them went on
together,
Isaac spoke up and said to his

father Abraham, “Father?”

“Yes, my son?” Abraham replied.

“The fire and wood are here,”


Isaac said, “but where is the
lamb for the burnt offering?”
Abraham answered,

“God himself will


provide the lamb for the
burnt offering, my son.”

And the two of them


went on together.
Hebrews 11:17-19
By faith Abraham, when God tested him,
17 

offered Isaac as a sacrifice. He who had


embraced the promises was about to sacrifice
his one and only son,

even though God had said to him, “It is


18 

through Isaac that your offspring will be


reckoned.” 

Abraham reasoned that God could even raise


19 

the dead, and so in a manner of speaking he did


receive Isaac back from death.
When they reached the place

God had told him about,


Abraham built an altar there and
arranged the wood on it.

He bound his son Isaac and laid


him on the altar, on top of the
wood.
Then he reached out his hand and
10 

took the knife to slay his son.

 11 But the angel of the LORD called


out to him from heaven, “Abraham!
Abraham!”

“Here I am,” he replied.


“Do not lay a hand on the boy,”
12 

he said. “Do not do anything to


him.

Now I know that you fear


God, because you have not
withheld from me your son, your
only son.”
Abraham looked up and there
13 

in a thicket he saw a ram caught


by its horns.

 He went over and took the ram


and sacrificed it as a burnt
offering instead of his son. 
So Abraham called that
14 

place The LORD Will Provide.

And to this day it is said, “On


the mountain of the LORD it
will be provided.”
The angel of the LORD called to
15 

Abraham from heaven a second


time 

and said, “I swear by myself,


16 

declares the LORD, that because


you have done this and have not
withheld your son, your only son, 
I will surely bless you and make your
17 

descendants as numerous as the stars


in the sky and as the sand on the
seashore. Your descendants will take
possession of the cities of their
enemies, 

and through your offspring all


18 

nations on earth will be blessed,


because you have obeyed me.”
So Abraham called that
14 

place The LORD Will Provide.

And to this day it is said, “On


the mountain of the LORD it
will be provided.”
John 8:56

Your father
Abraham rejoiced at the
thought of seeing my day;
he saw it and was glad.”
