YES and I AM LISTENING!


Abraham said; "YES" then he said; "I AM LISTENING"

Hello  readers!
I am popping in this afternoon just to remind you of the life impacting story of Abe and Issac's journey, up the grueling mountain--which actually became a reminder to the world of just how faithful God is when we are obedient.

God is asking you today to lean in a little closer to hear what He is saying.......

Abraham was a leader to Issac: Who's following you? Yes, Abe was Issac's daddy, and he trusted him. Who trust you to lead them to a ultimate journey of blessing?

Do you feel tested in your walk? Abraham was not only tested in his faith, but he was tested in his obedience. He was asked to build a sacrifice for his son! His surroundings must have seemed pretty dim at the time.
Check out your surroundings of where or what you personally might have climbed into. God will 'still' show you what He has for you, if you are willing to be obedient to his listen to HIS voice. Issac was as much affected by Abe's obedience as Abe himself. Usually what we are doing has more affect on others than even as much on us.

Are you in a relationship? Are you in a friend ship? Are you raising a child? What about your co-workers? Who's following you, as you go up the grueling mountains in your life, like Abraham and Issac climbed?
Only thing is, when Issac questioned Abraham and said; "Where's the lamb for the sacrifice?" Abraham's reply was this; "God will provide"--The greatest leadership is one that is totally dependent on the fact that 'we' are not doing this alone. WE have a greater witness.
The Holy Spirit in us is leading us. Do you hear him speaking to you?

Abraham and Issac climbed what Abe thought would be a horrific end, when in fact, God showed both of them that HE was the mountain of provision! (that 'grueling' mountain is now a land mark of a written proverb: "The Lord will provide"

It's official, when God is asking you to lean in a little closer to hear him, then I believe HE must mean HE has something to say.
He said; “Because you obey me and did not withhold from me, I swear by my own self.... “I will bless you richly!!” (my emphasis on the words.)

I hope you make this day the best day of your life and you will remember always that HE is the 'MOUNTAIN OF PROVISION'!! Don't ever forget that OBEDIENCE, climbs and when you get to the top, it's a place of blessing!
This story I am referring to is written in Genesis 22 in God's Holy Bible!
