Isaac

God Will Provide for Himself a Lamb

God Will Provide for Himself a Lamb

We all know the story of Abraham, how he took his only son Isaac to Jerusalem and was prepared to offer him as a burnt offering to the Lord on Mount Moriah. They traveled for three days until Abraham saw the place in the distance. As he and his son carried the wood and fire for the sacrifice, Isaac asked his father a question:

“My Father? Look, the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?” Abraham responded: “My son, God will provide for Himself the lamb for a burnt offering” (Genesis 22:7-8).
