The Names Of Our Lord

JEHOVAH - JIREH

"And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovah - Jireh....." Genesis 22:14

What a test of faith,
and heart-breaking.
Abraham was commanded to offer up his son Isaac.
Abraham, ready to obey God,
selected the place,
built an alter,
bound Isaac
ready for the alter,
when the Angel of Jehovah
spoke to stay his hand.

Abraham saw a ram
caught in a thicket
providing a sacrifice
in place of Isaac.
The Lord provided a lamb Himself
or the Lord provided Himself a Lamb.
Abraham named the place Jehovah - Jireh
(The Lord will provide).
The same spot where Jesus
bore our sins on the tree.
