So Abraham rose early in the morning, saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him, and his son Isaac. And he cut the wood for the burnt offering and arose and went to the place of which God had told him. On the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes and saw the place from afar. Then Abraham said to his young men, “Stay here with the donkey; I and the boy will go over there and worship and come again to you.”

Jehovah-Jireh—The Lord Will Provide. In the story of Abraham and his son Isaac, Abraham did not question God, but knew His ability to provide. In this plan, Tony Evans teaches on the power of the name, and how the story of Abraham affects us today.

Bestselling author Tony Evans reminds us that we will all be faced with tests, even if they are not as extreme as those Abraham went through. But as they did for him, so they offer us an opportunity for growth.
