Today’s Scripture is Genesis 22:8.
“Abraham answered, ‘God himself will provide the lamb for the burnt offering, my son.’ And the two of them went on together.”
There are moments when we face uncertainties and wonder how our needs will be met. Abraham found himself in such a situation when asked to offer his son Isaac. Yet, he told his son, “God himself will provide the lamb.” This shows a deep trust that God’s provision comes in His timing, not ours.
We often want quick answers and immediate solutions. But faith means trusting even when we can’t see the whole picture. As Martin Luther King Jr. said, “Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase.” Abraham took that step, believing that God would provide at the right moment.
This verse reminds us that God’s timing is perfect. He knows our needs and will provide for them, even if it’s not when we expect. Our part is to keep moving forward in faith, trusting that He will meet our needs at just the right time.
