TRUST GOD TO THE END

Do not lay a hand on the boy,” 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. Genesis 22:12

It was after Abraham bound his son Isaac, laid him on the altar, and took the knife to slay him, that God called from heaven and told him not to lay a hand on the boy.

This hadn’t been an easy journey for Abraham, you can be sure of that. After God had promised him a son, it took 25 years for Isaac to arrive. *Abraham in the meantime had wavered and fathered Ishmael by the maid Hagar in an attempt to get the will of God done.*

It was only when exhausted of human resources that Abraham finally learned that *what God says, God will do – in His own
time,* and Isaac was born.

God now tested Abraham and asked him to sacrifice the son he had waited so long for. Abraham, this time, obeyed and trusted God to the extent that if God had to raise him from the dead to fulfill the purpose He had stated for Isaac, then so be it. Abraham was no longer trying to organize things on God’s behalf. He trusted God to the very end.

Is God testing you over a promise He has made to you that your circumstances seem to be in conflict with? Trust Him to the end.

Are you being tempted to take things into your own hands because of God’s seeming inactivity? Please trust Him to the end.

PRAYER: Almighty Father, I humbly ask for grace to trust You all the days of my life. In Jesus' name I have prayed....Amen🙏🏼
