God Provides | Abraham and Isaac
Mine or his? Often called "the Father of the Faith," Abraham faced a difficult test. This film will help you learn to trust God in a deeper way -- even during challenging situations in your life.
*Read this film's foundational verses: Genesis 22:1-18.
This film highlights the true story of Abraham and Isaac, his son. Often called “the Father of Faith,” Abraham faced a difficult test when God commanded him to make an unusual and—based on human standards—seemingly nonsensical and cruel sacrifice. God used this test of obedience to see whether or not Abraham trusted Him fully and would, in faith, obediently make everything he had available for God’s use.
Today, we each have a choice. Will we listen to God’s voice—through the Bible, prayer, and the wisdom of godly people? Will we not only seek God’s will for our lives but obey Him faithfully—whether or not we know the final outcome? So much of our culture focuses on the “it’s-all-about-me” mentality and demands to know final outcomes ahead of time.
Before facing this hard test, Abraham had already experienced a dynamic relationship with the living God, who told him to move his family to a new land. During all circumstances, God always fulfilled His previous promises to Abraham—including giving Abraham and his wife, Sarah, their beloved son, Isaac.
Like Abraham, we have opportunities to believe God—and that includes having faith that He will keep His promises and allowing Him to carry out His will for our lives. As we trust and obey Him, we will experience His peace and contentment regardless of our outward circumstances.
