Vaughn Thompson continued Soul Talk with his perspective of Genesis 22, where Abraham was asked by God to sacrifice his only son Isaac. Abraham willingly answered God's call, though like any father on earth, worried for Isaac. Yet by faith and obedience, Abraham and Isaac followed God. It's a picture of how we are to take up our cross and follow Christ.
God wants us to be open to a new place, to a new sacrifice and to His Word. Abraham and Isaac journeyed for three days to Mount Moriah. Both continually sought after His will, even as Abraham was about to slay Isaac. Seeing Abraham’s obedience, God intervened and directed him to sacrifice a ram instead. Abraham could have slain Isaac's life for good had he not seek God’s counsel continually.
Will you be open to His voice, His heart, and to a new sacrifice for Him?
