What do I know about God?

JehovahJireh

The Lord provides

Jehovah Jireh means...“The Lord will

see to it...He will provide”

Genesis 22:2 (NASB95)2 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.”

Genesis 22:8 (NASB95)8 Abraham said, “God will provide for Himself the lamb for the burnt offering, my son.” So the two of them walked on together.

Delayed obedience is the same as disobedience

Partial obedience = complete disobedience

Genesis 22:13 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.

Philippians 4:19 And my God will supply all your needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

Genesis 22:14 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.”

Do you obey without reservation when God tests you or allows you to be tested?ORDo you hesitate, negotiate, argue or resist and in so doing avoid obeying immediately?

What is your "Isaac" that you dearly love and you would rather God not ask you to release to Him?

God is Jehovah ("I Am") and He says "I Am... everything you will every truly need to live this Christian life.

Jesus said, “Your Father knows the things you have need of before you ask Him”. He is constantly caring for and seeking the best for us—a reminder that in times of hardship, need, and fear, we have Someone who cares.

Peter wrote that we can cast all our cares upon Jesus, because He cares for us. We can turn to Him in our time of need.

As Jehovah Jireh God can and will provide exactly what we need when we need it, for His timing is perfect.

May it be true of us that when we come through the Refiner's Fire like Abraham, that our Father will say "now my son or daughter, I know that you fear Me in a right, reverential sense."

Remember that with God, His delay is not necessarily denial, but as with Abraham is so ordained that it might bring about a deep "surgery" within our heart.

May it be true of us that when we come through the Refiner's Fire like Abraham, that our Father will say "now my son or daughter, I know that you fear Me in a right, reverential sense."
