Paul Worden

Welcome to Paul's New Devine Destiny Series "FOLLOWING THE PATHWAY OF DESTINY." Why would God give Abraham a promised son, only to tell him to sacrifice the boy as an act of worship? We do not find Abraham questioning God's instructions. In fact, we are told that he "rose up early in the morning" to do as God had commanded (Genesis 22:3). Some of us cannot be bothered to get up early for a quiet time with the Lord, much less to fulfill a difficult command. Abraham did exactly as God instructed. When he and Isaac arrived at the chosen mountain, Abraham told his servants, "You wait here while the lad and I go to worship." A true commitment to God demands sacrifice. Sometimes the required sacrifice is what is nearest and dearest to your heart.
